This section defines how the Medicaid fee-for-service component is calculated for acute care hospital claims, including separate formulas for claims with and without third-party coverage.

(2)The outpatient amount is the product of the total fee-for-service payments for claims not attributable to newly eligible individuals for which there is no third-party coverage made to all acute care hospitals for outpatient hospital services multiplied by the outpatient hospital financing percentage and multiplied by the nonfederal share for not newly eligible individuals.
