Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, the amount hereinabove appropriated for Local Recreational Improvement Grants shall be used to provide grants to local units for repairs and improvements to public recreational facilities pursuant to a competitive process administered by the Division of Local Government Services, subject to the approval of the Director of the Division of Budget and Accounting.
The amount hereinabove appropriated for Consolidated Municipal Property Tax Relief Aid shall be distributed on the following schedule: on or before August 1, 45% of the total amount due; September 1, 30% of the total amount due; October 1, 15% of the total amount due; November 1, 5% of the total amount due; December 1 for municipalities operating under a calendar fiscal year, 5% of the total amount due; and June 1 for municipalities operating under the State fiscal year, 5% of the total amount due; provided, however, that notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, the Director of Local Government Services, in consultation with the Commissioner of Community Affairs and the State Treasurer, may direct the Director of the Division of Budget and Accounting to provide such payments on an accelerated schedule if necessary to ensure fiscal stability for a municipality.
Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, from the amounts received from the appropriation to the Consolidated Municipal Property Tax Relief Aid program and received from amounts transferred from Consolidated Municipal Property Tax Relief Aid to the Energy Tax Receipts Property Tax Relief Aid account, each municipality shall be required to distribute to each fire district within its boundaries the amount received by the fire district from the Supplementary Aid for Fire Services program pursuant to the provisions of the fiscal year 1995 annual appropriations act, P.L.1994, c.67, less an amount proportional to reductions in the combined total amount received by the municipality from Consolidated Municipal Property Tax Relief Aid and from the Energy Tax Receipts Property Tax Relief Fund/Aid account since fiscal year 2008.
Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, the amount hereinabove appropriated for Consolidated Municipal Property Tax Relief Aid shall be distributed in the same amounts, and to the same municipalities that received funding pursuant to the previous fiscal year's annual appropriations act; provided further, however, that from the amount hereinabove appropriated there are transferred to the Energy Tax Receipts Property Tax Relief Aid account such amounts as were determined for fiscal year 2024 and prior fiscal years pursuant to subsection e. of section 2 of P.L.1997, c.167 (C.52:27D-439), as amended by P.L.1999, c.168; the amount of Consolidated Municipal Property Tax Relief Aid received by any other municipality shall be increased by such amounts of Transitional Aid to Localities deemed to constitute Consolidated Municipal Property Tax Relief Aid by the Director of the Division of Local Government Services in the previous fiscal year.
Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, the Director of the Division of Local Government Services shall take such actions as may be necessary to ensure that proportional amounts of the Consolidated Municipal Property Tax Relief Aid and the amounts transferred from Consolidated Municipal Property Tax Relief Aid to the Energy Tax Receipts Property Tax Relief Aid account appropriated to offset losses from business personal property tax that would have otherwise been used for the support of public schools will be used to reduce the school property tax levy for those affected school districts with the remaining State Aid used as municipal property tax relief. The chief financial officer of the municipality shall pay to the school districts such amounts as may be due by December 31.
Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, the release of the total annual amount due for the current fiscal year from Consolidated Municipal Property Tax Relief Aid to municipalities is subject to the following condition: the municipality shall submit to the Director of the Division of Local Government Services a report describing the municipality's compliance with the "Best Practices Inventory" established by the Director of the Division of Local Government Services and shall receive at least a minimum score on such inventory as determined by the Director of the Division of Local Government Services; provided, however, that the director may take into account the particular circumstances of a municipality. In preparing the "Best Practices Inventory," the director shall identify best municipal practices in the areas of general administration, fiscal management, and operational activities, as well as the particular circumstances of a municipality, in determining the minimum score acceptable for the release of the total annual amount due for the current fiscal year.
The Director of the Division of Local Government Services may permit any municipality that received "Regional Efficiency Aid Program" funds pursuant to the annual appropriations act for fiscal year 2010, P.L.2009, c.68, to use a portion of its Consolidated Municipal Property Tax Relief Aid or Energy Tax Receipts Property Tax Relief Aid, or both Consolidated Municipal Property Tax Relief Aid and Energy Tax Receipts Property Tax Relief Aid, to provide "Regional Efficiency Aid Program" benefits pursuant to P.L.1999, c.61 (C.54:4-8.76 et seq.).
Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, the amount hereinabove appropriated for Trenton Capital City Aid is subject to the following condition: The City of Trenton shall enter into an agreement with the Department of Community Affairs setting forth the terms and conditions for receipt of such aid, which shall include financial and operational oversight by the Director of the Division of Local Government Services in the Department of Community Affairs.
Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, the amount hereinabove appropriated for Consolidation Implementation shall be allocated to provide reimbursement to local government units that consolidate pursuant to any law, including but not limited to P.L.2007, c.63 (C.40A:65-1 et seq.) and P.L.2009, c.118 (C.54:1-86 et seq.), or to a municipality that is wholly annexed by another municipality pursuant to N.J.S.40A:7-1 et seq., for non-recurring costs that the Director of the Division of Local Government Services, or in the case of a school district consolidation the Commissioner of Education, determines to be necessary to implement such consolidation or annexation, subject to the approval of the Director of the Division of Budget and Accounting; provided, however, that in addition to the amounts hereinabove appropriated, there are appropriated such additional amounts as are determined to be necessary for reimbursement of non-recurring costs associated with local government unit consolidations, subject to the approval of the Director of the Division of Budget and Accounting; provided further that there are appropriated such additional amounts, not to exceed $15,000,000, as the Director of the Division of Budget and Accounting, in consultation with the Commissioner of Community Affairs and the Director of the Division of Local Government Services, shall determine to be necessary to design and implement one or more voluntary county-based demonstration projects to achieve efficiencies and future cost savings in the provision of services at the local level.
Of the amount hereinabove appropriated for Transitional Aid to Localities, an amount may be allocated by the Director of the Division of Local Government Services to provide short-term financial assistance to a local government unit that is determined by the director to be experiencing financial distress caused by the destruction or loss of a major local business ratable. For purposes of this paragraph, a "major local business ratable" means one or more related parcels of property owned by a single business entity, classified as commercial or industrial, which comprised the largest assessed valuation of any one or more line items of taxable property in a municipality, or generated an annual PILOT payment in excess of 10% of the total municipal levy, or is otherwise determined by the director to be of such significance to a municipality that its destruction or loss has resulted in financial distress; provided, however, that notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, the Director of the Division of Local Government Services may direct that part of any such allocation be paid to an affected school district or county, or to both, in the same manner as if the award of Transitional Aid were raised as revenue from the municipal tax levy; and provided further that a local government unit determined to be experiencing financial distress because of the loss or destruction of a major local business ratable shall not be required to be subject to any additional conditions, requirements, orders, or other operational efficiency or oversight measures authorized pursuant to P.L.2011, c.144 (C.52:27D-118.42a), except as determined to be appropriate by the Director of the Division of Local Government Services.
Of the amount hereinabove appropriated for Transitional Aid to Localities, amounts may be allocated by the Director of the Division of Local Government Services to any State agency or department, county, or county improvement authority to pay for services provided to or on behalf of a participating municipal government unit pursuant to a memorandum of understanding between that State agency or department, county, or county improvement authority, as applicable and the Division of Local Government Services, subject to the approval of the Director of the Division of Budget and Accounting.
The amount hereinabove appropriated for Transitional Aid to Localities is subject to the following condition: notwithstanding the provisions of R.S.43:21-14, or any other law or regulation to the contrary, the Commissioner of Labor and Workforce Development, in consultation with the Commissioner of Community Affairs, is authorized to enter into individualized payment plan agreements with municipalities that receive Transitional Aid for the reimbursement of unemployment benefits paid to former employees of such municipal government units, at reasonable interest rates based on current market conditions, and on such other terms and conditions as may be determined to be appropriate by the Commissioner of Labor and Workforce Development. Any municipality that enters into an individualized payment plan agreement pursuant to this section shall be required to expend all funds budgeted for this activity remaining as of the last day of its budget year for the repayment of outstanding obligations under the plan.
Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, the amount hereinabove appropriated for Transitional Aid to Localities shall be allocated to provide short-term financial assistance where needed to help a municipality that is in serious fiscal distress meet immediate budgetary needs and regain financial stability. A municipality shall be deemed to be eligible for transitional aid if it is identified by the Director of the Division of Local Government Services as experiencing serious fiscal distress where the director determines that, despite local officials having implemented substantive cost reduction strategies, there continue to exist conditions of serious fiscal distress, which may include but shall not be limited to: substantial structural or accumulated deficits; ongoing reliance on non-recurring revenues; limited ability to raise supplemental non-property tax revenues; extraordinary demands for public safety appropriations; and other factors indicating a constrained ability to raise sufficient revenues to meet budgetary requirements that substantially jeopardizes the fiscal integrity of the municipality. Municipalities seeking transitional aid shall file an application on a form prescribed by the director, which application, among other things, shall set forth the minimum criteria that must be met in order for an application to be considered by the director for a determination of eligibility. The director shall determine whether a municipality which files an application meeting such minimum criteria is in serious fiscal distress, and, if so, what amount of transitional aid should be provided to address the municipality's serious fiscal distress. The transitional aid shall be provided to the municipality subject to the provisions of subsection a. of section 1 of P.L.2011, c.144 (C.52:27D-118.42a); provided, however, that an amount of Transitional Aid to Localities as determined by the Director of the Division of Local Government Services for a municipality may be deemed to constitute Consolidated Municipal Property Tax Relief Aid in an amount not in excess of the amount of Transitional Aid to Localities such municipality received in the previous fiscal year and shall not reduce the amount of Consolidated Municipal Property Tax Relief Aid such municipality shall receive for the current fiscal year. Provided, however, if the Director of the Division of Local Government Services deems an amount of Transitional Aid to Localities for a municipality as constituting Consolidated Municipal Property Tax Relief Aid pursuant to this provision, that municipality is not relieved from compliance with the requirements for transitional aid.
Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection d. of section 29 of P.L.1999, c.152 (C.13:8C-29) or subsection d. of section 30 of P.L.1999, c.152 (C.13:8C-30), or any law or regulation to the contrary, all payments to municipalities in lieu of taxes for lands acquired by the State and non-profit organizations for recreation and conservation purposes shall be retained by the municipality and not apportioned in the same manner as the general tax rate of the municipality.
Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, payments to municipalities in lieu of taxes for lands acquired by the State and non-profit organizations for recreation and conservation purposes shall be provided only to the municipalities whose payments received in fiscal year 2010 exceeded $5,000 and shall be provided at the payment amount provided in fiscal year 2024, subject to the approval of the Director of the Division of Budget and Accounting.
Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, any qualifying municipality, as defined in section 1 of P.L.1978, c.14 (C.52:27D-178) for the previous fiscal year, shall continue to be a qualifying municipality thereunder during the current fiscal year.
Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, whenever funds appropriated as State Aid and payable to any municipality, which municipality requests and receives the approval of the Local Finance Board, such funds may be pledged as a guarantee for payment of principal and interest on any bond anticipation notes issued pursuant to section 11 of P.L.2003, c.15 (C.40A:2-8.1) and any tax anticipation notes issued pursuant to N.J.S.40A:4-64 by such municipality. Such funds, if so pledged, shall be made available by the State Treasurer upon receipt of a written notification by the Director of the Division of Local Government Services that the municipality does not have sufficient funds available for prompt payment of principal and interest on such notes, and shall be paid by the State Treasurer directly to the holders of such notes at such time and in such amounts as specified by the director, notwithstanding that payment of such funds does not coincide with any date for payment otherwise fixed by law.
The State Treasurer, in consultation with the Commissioner of Community Affairs, is empowered to direct the Director of the Division of Budget and Accounting to transfer appropriations from any State department to any other State department as may be necessary to provide a loan for a term not to exceed 180 days to a local government unit faced with a fiscal crisis, including but not limited to a potential default on tax anticipation notes and on such other terms and conditions as may be required by the commissioner.
Notwithstanding the provisions of N.J.S.40A:4-39 or any other law or regulation to the contrary, a county that assumes responsibility for the provision of local police services in one or more municipalities utilizing a new or expanded county police force may display the anticipated revenues and appropriations associated with such county police force in its annual budget by annexing to that budget a statement describing the sources and amounts of anticipated dedicated revenues and appropriating those dedicated amounts for the purposes of the county police force.

Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, any revenues collected from the tax on cosmetic medical procedures pursuant to P.L.2004, c.53 (C.54:32E-1) shall be deposited into the Health Care Subsidy Fund established pursuant to section 8 of P.L.1992, c.160 (C.26:2H-18.58) for the support of payments to federally qualified health centers.
Of the amounts hereinabove appropriated to Robert Wood Johnson Barnabas Health - Community Health Projects and City of Newark Access to Health Care Partnership, amounts may be transferred to the Division of Medical Assistance and Health Services, consistent with CMS guidelines, solely to maximize federal Medicaid payments to faculty physicians and non-physician professionals who are affiliated with Robert Wood Johnson Barnabas Health, subject to the approval of the Director of the Division of Budget and Accounting.
Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, as a condition of the receipt of any monies hereunder by an acute care hospital that is requesting an advance of charity care/NJ FamilyCare or payments from the "Health Care Facilities Improvement Fund" or any payments over and above this act, the hospital shall comply with a request by the Commissioner of Health for a review of its finances and operations to ensure that access to health care is maintained and public funds are utilized for their intended purposes. The cost of such review shall be borne by the acute care hospital and shall comply with any financial and operational performance requirements imposed by the commissioner as deemed necessary as a result of the review.
The amounts hereinabove appropriated for Health Care Subsidy Fund Payments are conditioned upon the following provision: the Department of Health shall review, examine, or audit any and all financial information maintained by an acute care hospital to ensure appropriate use of public funds.
Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, the amounts hereinabove appropriated from the Health Care Subsidy Fund for Charity Care payments are subject to the following conditions: (a) a disproportionate share hospital eligible for funding through the Charity Care program may decline all or part of its Charity Care payments for the fiscal year by notifying the Commissioner of Health on a form designated by the Department of Health on or before the fifteenth day following enactment. If a disproportionate share hospital declines Charity Care payments for the fiscal year the amount declined shall be redistributed in the following manner: the amount to be redistributed shall be distributed to the remaining eligible hospitals in proportion to its share of the original subsidy total to the other remaining eligible hospitals in accordance with the provisions of section 3 of P.L.2004, c.113 (C.26:2H--18.59i), as modified by this act, subject to the approval of the Director of the Division of Budget and Accounting; and (b) a disproportionate share hospital that accepts Charity Care payments in the current fiscal year or in a prior fiscal year and is therefore determined through a hospital audit to have exceeded its hospital-specific disproportionate share hospital limit, potentially resulting in the State being required to reimburse the federal government, shall have its Charity Care payments reduced by the amount of any such required reimbursement. In the event that the hospital is determined to have exceeded its disproportionate share hospital limit by an amount greater than its Charity Care allocation for the current fiscal year, the entirety of its Charity Care allocation shall be withheld and the hospital shall be subject to such additional reductions or repayments, or both, as may be determined by the Commissioner of Health to be necessary to ensure compliance with federal and State requirements, subject to the approval of the Director of the Division of Budget and Accounting. In the event that a disproportionate share hospital has its Charity Care payments reduced by the State pursuant to this paragraph, any amounts so reimbursed shall be redistributed in the following manner: the amount to be redistributed shall be distributed to the remaining eligible hospitals proportional to each hospital's share of the Charity Care payment determined under this paragraph.
Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, the amounts hereinabove appropriated from the Health Care Subsidy Fund for Charity Care payments are subject to the following condition: In a manner determined by the Commissioner of Health and subject to the approval of the Director of the Division of Budget and Accounting, eligible hospitals shall receive their charity care subsidy payments in two, equal lump sum payments, the first of which will occur in August covering the six-month period beginning July 1st through and including December 31st, and the second of which will occur in January covering the six-month period beginning January 1st through and including June 30th. If an eligible hospital closes before June 30th, the hospital shall reimburse to the State upon closure any subsidy payments attributed on the normal monthly payment basis to after the hospital's date of closure.
There are appropriated such additional sums as are required to pay all amounts due from the State pursuant to any contract entered into between the State Treasurer and the New Jersey Health Care Facilities Financing Authority pursuant to section 6 of P.L.2000, c.98 (C.26:2I-7.1) in connection with the Hospital Asset Transformation Program.
Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, the appropriation for the Health Care Subsidy Fund Payments is subject to the following condition: the distribution of charity care subsidy payments shall be calculated using the following methodology: (1) each hospital shall be ranked in order of its hospital-specific, relative charity care percentage, or RCCP, based on the submitted 2022 Acute Care Hospital (ACH) Cost Reports, by dividing the amount of hospital-specific gross revenue for charity care patients by the hospital's total gross revenue for all patients; (2) the ten hospitals with the highest RCCP shall receive a charity care payment equal to 40 percent of each hospital's hospital-specific reimbursed documented charity care, except that such a hospital with an operating margin less than or equal to -15 percent shall receive a Charity Care reimbursement equal to 50 percent of their hospital-specific documented Charity Care, with operating margins being calculated using 2022 audited ACH cost reports with a numerator of Form L3, Line 34 minus Line 12, and a denominator of Form L3, Line 15 minus Line 12 minus Line 31; (3) notwithstanding the provisions of clause (2), the hospital with the highest hospital-specific reimbursed documented charity care in calendar year (CY) 2022 located in each of the ten municipalities in the State containing a hospital, with the lowest median annual household income according to the 2022 5-Year American Community Survey, shall receive a charity care payment equal to 30 percent of its hospital-specific reimbursed documented charity care; (4) an acute care hospital that is deemed to be a Disproportionate Share Hospital (DSH), according to s.1923(b) of the Social Security Act, as reported in Medicaid State Plan Rate Year ended June 30, 2018, shall also receive 30 percent of its CY 2022 hospital-specific documented charity care; and (5) a specialty heart hospital shall also receive 30 percent of its CY 2022 hospital-specific documented charity care. Any hospital that meets more than one of the categories pursuant to this paragraph shall only receive a Charity Care subsidy equal to the percentage of documented charity care that is the highest. Until approval by the federal government is received of the charity care subsidy payment methodology, State funds may be used to fund the entirety of the charity care subsidy using the methodology described above.
The amount appropriated for City of Newark Access to Health Care Partnership shall support a program administered by Newark Beth Israel Medical Center, in partnership with University Hospital, to improve access to health care for the residents of the City of Newark. The partnership shall present a report on the implementation and results of the program to the Commissioner of Health no later than May 30.
Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, and except as otherwise provided and subject to such modifications as may be required by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services in order to achieve any required federal approval and full Federal Financial Participation, $34,000,000 from the amounts hereinabove appropriated from Graduate Medical Education (GME) shall be designated as Supplemental Graduate Medical Education Subsidy (GME-S), and shall be available to hospitals that meet the following eligibility criteria: (a) an eligible hospital has a Relative Medicaid Percentage (RMP) that is among the top fourteen acute care hospitals with a residency program; (b) the RMP is a ratio calculated using the 2022 Audited Acute Care Hospital (ACH) Cost Reports according to the DOH due date of August 31, 2022, as submitted by January 31, 2023 by each acute care hospital and audited by March 1, 2023; (c) the RMP numerator equals a hospital's gross revenue from patient care for Medicaid and Medicaid HMO payers as reported on Forms E5 and E6, Line 1, Column D & Column H; (d) the RMP denominator equals a hospital's gross revenue from patient care as reported on Form E4, Line 1, Column E; (e) for instances where hospitals that have a single Medicaid identification number submit a separate ACH Cost Report for each individually licensed hospital, the ACH Cost Report data for those hospitals shall be consolidated to the single Medicaid identification number; (f) the GME-S Subsidy shall be calculated using the same methodology as the GME Subsidy is calculated in this act, except the total amount of the GME-S Subsidy payments shall not exceed $34,000,000.
Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, and except as otherwise provided and subject to such modifications as may be required by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services in order to achieve any required federal approval and full Federal Financial Participation, $218,000,000 from amounts hereinabove appropriated for Graduate Medical Education (GME) shall be designated the GME Subsidy, and shall be calculated as follows: (a) the subsidy payment shall be split into a Direct Medical Education (DME) portion and an Indirect Medical Education (IME) portion; (b) source data used for the GME calculation shall come from the Medicaid cost report for calendar year (CY) 2022 submitted by each acute care hospital by February 14, 2024 and Medicaid Managed Care encounter payments data for Medicaid and NJ FamilyCare clients as reported by insurers to the State for the following reporting period: services dates between January 1, 2022 and December 31, 2022; payment dates between January 1, 2022 and December 31, 2023; and a run-date of not later than February 15, 2024; (c) in the event that a hospital reported less than 12 months of 2022 Medicaid costs, the number of reported months of data regarding days, costs, or payments shall be annualized. In the event the hospital completed a merger, acquisition, or business combination resulting in two cost reports filed during the calendar year, two cost reports will be combined into one or a supplemental cost report for the calendar year 2022 submitted by the affected acute care hospital by January 31, 2021 shall be used. In the event that a hospital did not report its Medicaid managed care days on the cost report utilized in this calculation, the Department of Health (DOH) shall ascertain Medicaid managed care encounter days for Medicaid and NJ FamilyCare clients as reported by insurers to the State as per source data defined in (b) above; (d) Medicaid managed care DME cost begins with the intern and residency program costs using the 2022 submitted Medicaid cost report total residency costs, reported on Worksheet B Pt I Column 21 Line 21 plus Worksheet B Pt I Column 22 Line 22 divided by the 2022 resident full time equivalent employees (FTE), reported on Worksheet S-3 Pt 1 Column 9 line 14 to develop an average cost per resident FTE for each hospital; (e) median cost per resident FTE is calculated based on the average cost per resident FTE for each hospital; (f) the median cost per resident FTE is multiplied by the 2022 resident FTEs reported on Worksheet S-3 Pt 1 Column 9 Line 14 to develop total median residency program cost for each hospital; (g) median residency costs are multiplied by the ratio of Medicaid managed care days, reported on Worksheet S-3 Column 7 Line 2, divided by the difference of total days, reported on Worksheet S-3 Column 8 Line 14, less nursery days, reported on Worksheet S-3 Column 8 Line 13 to determine the Medicaid managed care DME cost of each hospital; (h) Medicaid managed care IME cost is defined as the Medicare IME factor multiplied by Medicaid managed care encounter payments as per source data defined in (b) above; (i) the IME factor is calculated using the Medicare IME formula as follows: 1.35 * ((1 + x) ^0.405 - 1), in which "x" is the ratio of submitted IME resident FTEs reported on Worksheet S-3 Pt 1 Column 9 Line 14 divided by the difference of total available beds, reported on Worksheet S-3 Column 2 Line 14, less nursery beds, reported on Worksheet S-3 Column 2 Line 13; (j) total 2022 Medicaid managed care GME costs shall equal total 2022 Medicaid managed care IME costs plus total 2022 Medicaid managed care DME costs; (k) the 2022 total Medicaid managed care DME costs is divided by the total 2022 Medicaid managed care GME costs; (l) the DME allocation portion is calculated by multiplying the total subsidy amount by the ratio in (k) above; (m) each hospital's percentage of total 2022 Medicaid managed care DME costs shall be multiplied by the DME allocation to calculate its DME payment; (n) the 2022 total Medicaid managed care IME costs are divided by the total 2022 Medicaid managed care GME costs; (o) the IME allocation portion is calculated by multiplying the total subsidy amount by the ratio in (n) above; (p) each hospital's percentage of total 2022 Medicaid managed care IME costs shall be multiplied by the IME allocation to calculate its IME payment; (q) the sum of a hospital's DME and IME payments shall equal its subsidy payment. The total GME Subsidy amount and these payments shall not exceed $218,000,000 and shall be paid in 12 monthly payments; (r) in the event that a hospital believes that there are mathematical errors in the calculations, or data not matching the actual source documents used to calculate the subsidy as defined above, hospitals shall be permitted to file calculation appeals within 15 working days of receipt of the subsidy allocation letter. If upon review it is determined by the DOH that the error has occurred and would constitute at least a five percent change in the hospital's allocation amount, a revised industry-wide allocation shall be issued; (s) each hospital receiving a GME allocation shall, on or before May 31, 2025, provide a report to the Commissioner of Health indicating the total number of physicians who completed their training during the preceding calendar year, and the number of those physicians who plan to practice medicine within the State of New Jersey.
Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, the amount hereinabove appropriated for Graduate Medical Education (GME) is subject to the following condition: participating hospitals shall provide to residents and fellows participating in the GME program instruction concerning prevention of opioid addiction as well as diagnosis, assessment, and treatment strategies: provided, however, that such instruction may also be provided to other students and providers including, but not limited to, physicians, nurses, pharmacists, and social workers, working within the hospital or in the outpatient setting.

Support of Patients in County Psychiatric Hospitals (PTRF) |
($146,164,000) |
|
The unexpended balance at the end of the preceding fiscal year in the Support of Patients in County Psychiatric Hospitals account is appropriated for the same purpose.
Notwithstanding the provisions of R.S.30:4-78, or any law or regulation to the contrary, the State share of payments from the Support of Patients in County Psychiatric Hospitals account to the several county psychiatric facilities on behalf of the reasonable cost of maintenance of patients deemed to be county indigents shall be at the rate of 125 percent of the rate established by the Commissioner of Human Services, in consultation with the Commissioner of Health, for the period July 1 to December 31 and at the rate of 45 percent of the rate established by the Commissioner of Human Services, in consultation with the Commissioner of Health, for the period January 1 to June 30 such that the total amount to be paid by the State on behalf of county indigent patients for the calendar year shall not exceed 85 percent of the total reasonable per capita cost; and further provided that the rate at which the State will reimburse the county psychiatric hospitals shall not exceed 100 percent of the per capita rate at which each county pays to the State for the reasonable cost of maintenance and clothing of each patient residing in a State psychiatric facility, excluding the depreciation, interest and carry-forward adjustment components of this rate, and including the depreciation, interest, and carry-forward adjustment components of each individual county psychiatric hospital's rate established for the period January 1 to December 31 by the Commissioner of Human Services in consultation with the Commissioner of Health. The initial determination of whether a county hospital rate exceeds the per capita rate that counties pay to the State on behalf of applicable patients residing in a State psychiatric facility will be based on a comparison of estimated cost used to set reimbursement rates for the upcoming calendar year. A second comparison of the actual per diem costs of the county psychiatric hospital and State psychiatric hospitals will be completed after actual cost reports for the period are available including an inflationary adjustment for the six-month difference in fiscal reporting periods between State and county hospitals. The county hospital carry-forward adjustment to be included in rates paid by the State will exclude costs found to exceed 100 percent of the actual cost rate of the State psychiatric facilities.

The amount hereinabove appropriated for State Aid reimbursement payments for maintenance of patients in county psychiatric facilities shall be limited to inpatient services only, except that such reimbursement shall be paid to a county for outpatient and partial hospitalization services as defined by the Department of Human Services, if outpatient and/or partial hospitalization services had been previously provided at the county psychiatric facility prior to January 1, 1998. These outpatient and partial hospitalization payments shall not exceed the amount of State Aid funds paid to reimburse outpatient and partial hospitalization services provided during calendar year 1997. In addition, any revision or expansion to the number of inpatient beds or inpatient services provided at such hospitals which will have a material impact on the amount of State Aid payments made for such services, must first be approved by the Department of Human Services before such change is implemented.

The amount hereinabove appropriated for Support of Patients in County Psychiatric Hospitals is conditioned upon the following provisions: County psychiatric hospitals shall: (1) enroll and continue to maintain enrollment as providers in the State's NJ FamilyCare program; (2) complete or pursue in good faith the completion of eligibility applications for patients who could be NJ FamilyCare eligible; (3) bill the NJ FamilyCare program for all applicable services; and (4) neither admit nor discharge patients based upon NJ FamilyCare eligibility.

Notwithstanding the provisions of R.S.30:4-78, or any other law or regulation to the contrary, the amount hereinabove appropriated for Support of Patients in County Psychiatric Hospitals is conditioned upon the following provisions: for rates effective January 1, 2013, and any prior year rate adjustments that may be required beginning January 1, 2013, the approval of the State House Commission shall not be required for the setting of such rates and the Commissioner of Human Services, in consultation with the Commissioner of Health, shall set: (1) the per capita cost rates to be paid by the State to the several counties on behalf of the reasonable cost of maintenance of State and county patients in any county psychiatric facility, including outpatient psychiatric services, (2) the per capita rates which each county shall pay to the Treasurer for the reasonable cost of maintenance and clothing of each patient residing in a State psychiatric facility having a legal settlement in such county ("County Patients"), (3) the rates to be paid for the reasonable cost of maintenance and clothing of the convict and criminal mentally ill in any State psychiatric facility and the cost of maintenance of County Patients residing in State developmental centers or receiving other residential functional services for the developmentally disabled. Such rates will be fixed no later than October 1 of each calendar year. Notice of such rates shall be provided by the Commissioner of Human Services to the clerk of the respective boards of chosen freeholders.
In the event that the Division of Mental Health and Addiction Services is notified that a county psychiatric hospital will cease operations for the current fiscal year, or any portion thereof, in order to assure continuity of care for patients who otherwise would have been served by the county hospital, as well as to preserve patient and public safety, the Division shall have the authority to transfer funds from the Support of Patients in County Psychiatric Hospitals account to Direct State Services and Grants-In-Aid accounts in the Division of Mental Health and Addiction Services, for the fiscal year, subject to a plan approved by the Director of the Division of Budget and Accounting.
Notwithstanding the provisions of R.S.30:4-78, or any law or regulation to the contrary, with respect to the amount hereinabove appropriated for Support of Patients in County Psychiatric Hospitals, commencing January 1, 2010, the State shall pay to each county an amount equal to 35 percent of the total per capita costs for the reasonable cost of maintenance and clothing of county patients in State psychiatric facilities.

Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, and subject to any required federal approval, the amounts hereinabove appropriated within the General Medical Services program classification are subject to the following conditions: (1) the Division of Medical Assistance and Health Services shall establish a managed care state directed payment program pursuant to 42 CFR 438.6(c) and that provides a supplemental payment for each acute care hospital outpatient visit for which NJ FamilyCare is the primary payer and there is no third-party liability; (2) an outpatient visit is defined as all services billed on a single UB-92, UB-04 or successor claim form related to a singular diagnosis or treatment of services, which did not result in hospitalization; (3) public hospitals shall receive a Medicaid outpatient add-on equal to the difference between the statewide average commercial rate (ACR) and the average managed care payment per hospital outpatient visit, where (a) the average managed care payment per hospital outpatient visit shall be calculated by dividing the total amount of managed care hospital outpatient payments by the number of visits, calculated on managed care encounter payments for which NJ FamilyCare was the primary payer for calendar year 2022, with payment dates between January 1, 2022, and June 30, 2023, with a run-date of not later than September 12, 2023, (b) the ACR shall be calculated using the 2022 Audited Acute Care Hospital (ACH) Cost Reports submitted to the Department of Health as follows: (i) the ACR numerator equals a hospital's gross revenue from patient care for payers as reported on Form E6, Line 1, Column A, Column B, Column F, and Column I minus prior year allowances and adjustments as reported on Form E6, Line 2, Column A, Column B, Column F, and Column I minus current year allowances as reported on Form E6, Line 3, Column A, Column B, Column F and Column I, (ii) the ACR denominator equals the sum of the hospital's visits as reported on Form B6, Column L, Line 1, Line 2, Line 6 and Line 9, and (iii) the ACR equals the sum of the ACR numerators divided by the sum of the ACR denominators for all hospitals submitting an ACH cost report; (4)(a) the remaining non-public, acute care hospitals shall be ranked by their Relative Medicaid Percentage (RMP) from highest to lowest, which shall be calculated using the 2022 ACH Cost Reports submitted to the Department of Health and shall be calculated as follows: (i) the RMP numerator equals a hospital's gross revenue from patient care as reported on Forms E5 and E6, Line 1, Column D and Column H, (ii) the RMP denominator equals a hospital's gross revenue from patient care as reported on Form E4, Line 1, Column E, (iii) the RMP equals the RMP numerator divided by the RMP denominator for each hospital submitting an ACH cost report, and (iv) for instances where hospitals that have a single Medicare identification number submit a separate ACH Cost Report for each individually licensed hospital, the ACH Cost Report data for those hospitals shall be consolidated to the single Medicare identification number, and (b) the top 15 hospitals ranked with the highest RMPs shall receive an outpatient add-on equal to $200 per visit, hospitals with an RMP ranking of 16 through 30 shall receive an outpatient add on equal to $150 per visit, hospitals with an RMP ranking of 31 through 45 shall receive an outpatient add on equal to $100 per visit, and hospitals ranked 46 and lower shall receive an outpatient add on equal to $50 per visit; (5) each of the hospitals located in the ten municipalities in the State containing a hospital that have the lowest median annual household income according to Table S1901 from the 2022 American Community Survey (ACS) 5-Yr Estimate Released December 7, 2023, shall be ranked from the hospital with the highest hospital-specific reimbursed Medicaid and NJ FamilyCare managed care outpatient hospital services to the hospital with the lowest hospital-specific reimbursed Medicaid and NJ FamilyCare managed care outpatient hospital services, as calculated on managed care encounter payments for which NJ FamilyCare was the primary payer for calendar year 2022, with payment dates between January 1, 2022, and June 30, 2023, with a run-date of not later than September 12, 2023, and the hospital in each of the ten municipalities, if any, with the highest reimbursed Medicaid and NJ FamilyCare managed care outpatient hospital services shall receive a 25 percent increase to their designated tier's add-on payment, unless such hospital is publicly owned; (6) hospitals shall receive interim quarterly Medicaid managed care outpatient hospital payments on or about the 15th of the first month of each quarter based on calendar year 2022 outpatient visits as calculated in (5) above, which shall be reconciled to actual fiscal year utilization in the subsequent fiscal year's April payment. In addition, notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, from the amounts hereinabove appropriated for the General Medical Services program classification, the Department of Human Services shall conduct an assessment of the viability and cost to the State of a supplemental Medicaid add-on payment to physician practices that are affiliated with hospital systems for services provided to Medicaid recipients, which may differentiate based on delivery systems employed in different health systems. The Commissioner of Human Services shall report to the Legislature whether such funding is consistent with federal approvals and does not jeopardize any federal funding.

Notwithstanding the provisions of any law to the contrary, amounts hereinabove appropriated for Aging and Disability Resource Connections (ADRC) shall be conditioned upon the following: federal matching funds derived from ADRC or Area Agencies on Aging Medicaid costs, pursuant to an approved cost allocation plan, shall be disbursed to counties solely for the expansion of long-term care services and supports for older adults and individuals seeking home and community based services.
Of the amount hereinabove appropriated in the Pharmaceutical Assistance to the Aged and Disabled-Claims program, notwithstanding the provisions of section 3 of P.L.1975, c.194 (C.30:4D-22) or any law or regulation to the contrary, the copayment in the Pharmaceutical Assistance to the Aged and Disabled program shall be $5 for generic drugs and $7 for brand name drugs.
Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, the amounts hereinabove appropriated for the Pharmaceutical Assistance to the Aged and Pharmaceutical Assistance to the Aged and Disabled (PAAD) programs are conditioned upon the Department of Human Services coordinating the benefits of the PAAD programs with the prescription drug benefits of the federal "Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement, and Modernization Act of 2003," Pub.L.108-173, as the primary payer due to the current federal prohibition against State automatic enrollment of PAAD program recipients in the federal program. The PAAD program benefit and reimbursement shall only be available to cover the beneficiary cost share to in-network pharmacies and for deductible and coverage gap costs, as determined by the Commissioner of Human Services, associated with enrollment in Medicare Part D for beneficiaries of the PAAD and Senior Gold Prescription Discount programs, and for Medicare Part D premium costs for PAAD beneficiaries.
Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, the amount hereinabove appropriated for the Pharmaceutical Assistance to the Aged and Disabled program is subject to the following condition: any third party, as defined in subsection m. of section 3 of P.L.1968, c.413 (C.30:4D-3), or in 42 U.S.C. s.1396a(a)(25)(A), including, but not limited to, a pharmacy benefit manager writing health, casualty, or malpractice insurance policies in the State or covering residents of this State, shall enter into an agreement with the Department of Human Services to permit and assist the matching of the Department of Human Services' program eligibility and/or adjudication claims files against that third party's eligibility and/or adjudicated claims files for the purpose of the coordination of benefits, utilizing, if necessary, social security numbers as common identifiers.
All funds recovered pursuant to P.L.1968, c.413 (C.30:4D-1 et seq.) and P.L.1975, c.194 (C.30:4D-20 et seq.) during the preceding fiscal year are appropriated for payments to providers in the same program classification from which the recovery originated.
Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, a sufficient portion of receipts generated or savings realized in the Medical Services for the Aged or Pharmaceutical Assistance to the Aged and Disabled Grants-In-Aid accounts from initiatives included in the current fiscal year appropriations act may be transferred to administration accounts to fund costs incurred in realizing these additional receipts or savings, subject to the approval of the Director of the Division of Budget and Accounting.
Benefits provided under the Pharmaceutical Assistance to the Aged and Disabled (PAAD) program, P.L.1975, c.194 (C.30:4D-20 et seq.), and the Senior Gold Prescription Discount Program, P.L.2001, c.96 (C.30:4D-43 et seq.), shall be the last resource benefits, notwithstanding any provisions contained in contracts, wills, agreements, or other instruments. Any provision in a contract of insurance, will, trust agreement, or other instrument which reduces or excludes coverage or payment to an individual because of that individual's eligibility for, or receipt of, PAAD or Senior Gold Prescription Discount Program benefits shall be void, and no PAAD and Senior Gold Prescription Discount Program payments shall be made as a result of any such provision.
Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, no funds appropriated in the Pharmaceutical Assistance to the Aged and Disabled program classification and the Senior Gold Prescription Discount Program account shall be expended for fee-for-service prescription drug claims with no Medicare Part D coverage except under the following conditions: (1) the maximum allowable cost for legend and non-legend drugs shall be calculated based on Actual Acquisition Cost (AAC) defined as the lowest of (i) the National Average Drug Acquisition Cost (NADAC) Retail Price Survey, developed in accordance with subsection (f) of section 1927 of the Social Security Act; (ii) Wholesale Acquisition Cost (WAC) less a volume discount, in the absence of a NADAC price, that is consistent with the NJ FamilyCare Program; (iii) the federal upper limit; or (iv) the State upper limit (SUL); and (v) cost acquisition data submitted by providers of pharmaceutical services for brand-name multi-source drugs and multi-source drugs in the absence of any alternative pricing benchmarks; (2) pharmacy reimbursement for legend and non-legend drugs shall be calculated based on (i) the lower of the AAC plus a professional fee, that is consistent with the NJ FamilyCare Program; or a provider's usual and customary charge; or (ii) the lower of cost acquisition data submitted by providers of pharmaceutical services for brand-name multi-source and multi-source drugs, where an alternative pricing benchmark is not available, plus a professional fee that is consistent with the NJ FamilyCare Program; or a provider's usual and customary charge. For legend drugs purchased through the 340B Drug Pricing Program, the maximum allowable cost shall be based on the 340B ceiling price. In the absence of a 340B ceiling price, the alternative benchmark used shall be the WAC minus a volume discount of 25 percent. The 340B ceiling price or the alternative benchmark shall only apply when its price is the lowest compared to the pricing formulas described by (i) through (v) above. Reimbursement for covered outpatient drugs shall be calculated based on: (i) the lower of the AAC plus a professional fee of $10.92; or a provider's usual and customary charge; or (ii) the lower of cost acquisition data submitted by providers of pharmaceutical services for brand-name multi-source and multi-source drugs, where an alternative pricing benchmark is not available, plus a professional fee of $10.92; or a provider's usual and customary charge.

Name brand manufacturers must provide for the payment of rebates to the State on the same basis as provided for in subsections (a) through (c) of section 1927 of the federal Social Security Act, 42 U.S.C. s.1396r-8.
Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, no funds appropriated for the Pharmaceutical Assistance to the Aged and Disabled (PAAD) program pursuant to P.L.1975, c.194 (C.30:4D-20 et seq.), and the Senior Gold Prescription Discount Program, pursuant to P.L.2001, c.96 (C.30:4D-43 et seq.), shall be expended unless participating pharmaceutical manufacturing companies execute contracts with the Department of Human Services, providing for the payment of rebates to the State provided, however, nothing in this paragraph shall apply to insulin products. Furthermore, rebates from pharmaceutical manufacturing companies for prescriptions purchased by the PAAD program and the Senior Gold Prescription Discount Program shall continue during the current fiscal year, provided that the manufacturer's rebates for PAAD claims paid as secondary to Medicare Part D and for the Senior Gold Prescription Discount Program shall apply only to the amount paid by the State under the PAAD and Senior Gold Prescription Discount Programs. All revenues from such rebates during the current fiscal year are appropriated for the PAAD program and the Senior Gold Prescription Discount Program.

The mail-order program may waive, discount, or rebate the beneficiary copayment and mail-order pharmacy providers may dispense up to a 90-day supply on prescription refills with the voluntary participation of the beneficiary, subject to the approval of the Commissioner of Human Services and the Director of the Division of Budget and Accounting.
Consistent with the requirements of the federal "Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement, and Modernization Act of 2003," Pub.L.108-173, and the current federal prohibition against State automatic enrollment of Pharmaceutical Assistance to the Aged and Pharmaceutical Assistance to the Aged and Disabled (PAAD) programs and Senior Gold Prescription Discount Program recipients, no funds hereinabove appropriated to the PAAD program or Senior Gold Prescription Discount Program accounts shall be expended for any individual unless the individual enrolled in the PAAD program or Senior Gold Prescription Discount Program provides all data necessary to enroll the individual in Medicare Part D, including data required for the subsidy assistance, as outlined by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.
