Tennessee allotments are set for part of 2026 and for 2027
What the document says“and the DSH allotment for Tennessee for the portion of fiscal year 2026 beginning on January 31, 2026, and ending September 30, 2026, shall be $35,351,507, which may be claimed as fiscal year 2026 uncompensated care costs, and the DSH allotment for Tennessee for fiscal year 2027, shall be $53,100,000”
Subsection (a) of section 6105 amends section 1923(f)(6)(A)(vi) of the Social Security Act. It sets the Tennessee allotment at $35,351,507 for the part of fiscal year 2026 running from January 31, 2026 to September 30, 2026, claimable as fiscal year 2026 uncompensated care costs, and at $53,100,000 for fiscal year 2027. It also changes the heading of that clause to read 2027.
What the document actually says“and the DSH allotment for Tennessee for the portion of fiscal year 2026 beginning on January 31, 2026, and ending September 30, 2026, shall be $35,351,507, which may be claimed as fiscal year 2026 uncompensated care costs, and the DSH allotment for Tennessee for fiscal year 2027, shall be $53,100,000”
Tennessee gets a set sum for part of 2026. It gets a larger set sum for 2027.
The letters DSH stand for a program that helps hospitals treating many people who cannot pay. Each state gets a set share. This sets Tennessee's.
