Methodology
The amounts identified above represent changes to previously budgeted amounts for the state fiscal biennium ending August 31, 2013. This analysis assumes immediate effect.
Local Government Impact
Appropriations for Bastrop and Cass Counties will assist the counties with costs incurred by wildfires and help them better maximize federal money available to mitigate costs associated with wildfires. The appropriation of $100 million in Trauma Facility and EMS general revenue dedicated funds to the Department of State Health Services for the purpose of entering into an interagency contract with the Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) to provide the non-federal share of the Medicaid disproportionate share hospital (DSH) program will have a positive All Funds fiscal impact of $245,158,127 in fiscal year 2013 to hospitals participating in the Texas DSH program. The DSH program is a joint state-federal program reimbursed by the federal government at a state's Federal Medical Assistance Percentage (FMAP). The fiscal year 2013 Texas FMAP is 59.21%, meaning that the appropriation of $100 million in non-federal funds will draw down an additional $145,158,127 federal funds, for an All Funds impact of $245,158,127. Although the DSH program is administered by HHSC, it is not reflected in the General Appropriations Act.
