This interim final rule establishes in Medicaid regulations limitations on Federal financial participation (FFP) in State medical assistance expenditures when States receive funds from provider-related donations and revenues generated by certain health care-related taxes. The rule also adds provisions that establish limits on the aggregate amount of payments a State may make to disproportionate share hospitals for which FFP is available. This interim final rule implements provisions of the Medicaid Voluntary Contribution and Provider Specific Tax Amendments of 1991.
