(1) If a patient care management system is established in a county in which the total payments to hospitals in the county for the county's resident county hospitalization program exceeded $10,000,000.00 during the county's full fiscal year immediately before the effective date of this section, the state shall appropriate for fiscal year 1988-89 the aggregate amount to the county which the state had appropriated under this act in fiscal year 1987-88 as separate amounts for programs of resident county hospitalization and medical care for general assistance recipients in the county. Funds appropriated to a county under this section shall only be used for a patient care management system as prescribed in sections 66j to 66n, and shall only be made available to the county if the county appropriates and expends for its residential county hospitalization program in the county's fiscal year 1988-89 not less than $15,500,000.00. The ratio of the state's appropriation of $19,500,000.00 to the county appropriation of $15,500,000.00 for the resident county hospitalization program of a county described in this subsection shall be maintained for subsequent fiscal year appropriations by the county, unless the state appropriation is less than $19,500,000.00 in a subsequent year, in which case the county appropriation may decrease in order to maintain the ratio from the base year of $19,500,000.00 state funds to $15,500,000.00 county funds.
(2) If a patient care management system is established in any county other than a county described in subsection (1), the state shall appropriate to the county for the state fiscal year following the fiscal year in which the patient care management system is established the aggregate amount which the state had appropriated under this act in the preceding fiscal year as separate amounts for programs of resident county hospitalization and medical care for general assistance recipients in the county. Funds appropriated to a county under this section shall only be used for a patient care management system as prescribed in sections 66j to 66n. Not more than 3% of the funds appropriated to a county under this subsection, and not more than 3% of the county funds appropriated for those same purposes, shall be used for administration of the patient care management system.
(3) For fiscal years following the year in which an aggregate amount is appropriated as prescribed in either subsection (1) or (2), that part of the aggregate amount appropriated that is attributable to former state payments to that county for medical care for general assistance recipients shall be adjusted by any changes in the county's general assistance caseload during the fiscal year immediately preceding the fiscal year in which the appropriation is to be made.
(4) If the cost of medical care in a county under a patient care management system exceeds the amount appropriated to the county under this section in any fiscal year, the county shall be liable for the difference.
(5) Not less than $5,000,000.00 of the funds appropriated under this section to a county described in subsection (1) shall be set aside annually by the county to meet the inpatient hospitalization expenses of persons who are not general assistance recipients as of the date they are admitted to the hospital. If less than the entire $5,000,000.00 is spent in any year for the care of those persons, the remainder may be used for other expenses of the patient care management system.
(6) Any state or local appropriations for a patient care management system that are not expended in the year for which they were appropriated shall be placed by the county in a special fund to be used exclusively for the purposes of the patient care management system in subsequent years.
(7) The state treasurer shall not release funds appropriated to a county for a patient care management system unless the county to which the appropriation is to be made certifies annually to the state administrative board that the county meets the requirements established by this act for a patient care management system, and the state administrative board concurs annually with that certification.
