Section 1923(f)(3) of the Social Security Act ( 42 U.S.C. 1396r–4(f)(3) ) is amended— in subparagraph (A), by striking and subparagraph
(E)and inserting and subparagraphs
(E)and
(F); and by adding at the end the following new subparagraph: The DSH allotment for any State is— for fiscal year 2020, equal to 102.5 percent of the DSH allotment that would be determined under this paragraph for the State for fiscal year 2020 without application of this subparagraph, notwithstanding subparagraphs
(B)and (C); and for a subsequent fiscal year (if any) during which the emergency period defined in paragraph (1)(B) of section 1135(g) of the Social Security Act is in effect, equal to 102.5 percent of the DSH allotment determined under this subparagraph for the State for the previous fiscal year. For each fiscal year after fiscal year 2020 during which the emergency period described in clause
(ii)is not in effect, the DSH allotment for a State for such fiscal year is equal to the DSH allotment that would have been determined under this paragraph for such fiscal year if this subparagraph had not been enacted. . It is the sense of Congress that a State should prioritize making payments under the State plan of the State under title XIX of the Social Security Act ( 42 U.S.C. 1396 et seq.) (or a waiver of such plan) to disproportionate share hospitals that have a higher share of COVID–19 patients relative to other such hospitals in the State.
