Health and Family Services
(Medical Assistance Reimbursement of Hospitals - Annual Rate Update)
The State of Wisconsin reimburses hospitals for medical services provided to low-income persons under the authority of Title XIX of the Federal Social Security Act and ss. 49.43 to 49.47, Wisconsin Statutes. The Wisconsin Department of Health and Family Services administers this program which is called Medicaid or Medical Assistance (MA). Federal statutes and regulations require state plans, one for outpatient services and one for inpatient services, which provide the methods and standards for paying for hospital outpatient and inpatient services including specific payment rates and methodologies.
The Department is proposing to update payment rates based on current methodologies and to reflect more recent hospital cost reports and/or other information relevant to hospital reimbursement. The effective date for the proposed changes is July 1, 1998.
As required by federal statute and regulations, the proposed payment rates are restricted by the federal Medicare upper limit requirement and target a share of funding to hospitals which serve a disproportionate number of low-income patients.
Copies of Proposed Payment Rates
Copies of the proposed new payment rates will be sent to every county social services or human services department main office where they will be available for public review. For more information, interested persons may fax or write to:
