Sec. 5. (a) The office may not implement this chapter, IC 12-15-17, IC 12-15-18, IC 12-15-19, or IC 12-15-20 until the federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services has issued its approval of the amended state plan for medical assistance.
(b) The office may determine not to continue to implement this chapter, IC 12-15-17, IC 12-15-18, IC 12-15-19, and IC 12-15-20 if federal financial participation is not available.
(c) If federal financial participation is approved for less than all of the amounts paid into the Medicaid indigent care trust fund with respect to a fiscal year, the office may reduce payments attributable to that fiscal year under IC 12-15-19-1 by a percentage sufficient to compensate for the aggregate reduction in federal financial participation. If additional federal financial participation is subsequently approved with respect to payments into the Medicaid indigent care trust fund for the same fiscal year, the office shall distribute such amounts using the percentage that was used to compensate for the prior reduction in federal financial participation.
