The section adds new subparagraphs (H), (I) and (J) to section 1903(w)(7) of the Social Security Act. A Medicaid taxable unit is a unit taxed within a health care related tax that applies to the program, including units used as the basis for payment such as Medicaid bed days, Medicaid revenue, program costs and other units the Secretary determines. A non-Medicaid taxable unit is the mirror image. A tax rate group is a group of entities within a permissible class taxed at the same rate.

That sentence, in plain words

The term covers a set of bodies taxed at one rate. They must sit within an allowed class of the tax.

What this is about

Two more terms are also defined. One covers units tied to Medicaid. The other covers units not tied to it.

How to Read This Page

The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, and we check the page number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary, not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the quotation rather than replacing it.
