Uncompensated care relief programs establishment

This bill creates a financial relief program for hospitals and community-based safety net providers in Minnesota that face high levels of uncompensated care. It allows these facilities to apply for state funds to cover costs from treating patients who are uninsured, ineligible for public insurance, and whose care costs between $5,000 and $50,000. The program distributes money proportionally based on the total value of care provided, with a cap ensuring no single provider receives more than 10% of the available funds. Hospitals must submit documentation for services provided during two semi-annual reporting periods to receive reimbursement.
