§ 605. State aid; amount of reimbursement. 1. A state aid base grant shall be reimbursed to municipalities for the core public health services identified in section six hundred two of this title, in an amount of the greater of sixty-five cents per capita, for each person in the municipality, or six hundred fifty thousand dollars provided that the municipality expends at least six hundred fifty thousand dollars for such core public health services. A municipality must provide all the core public health services identified in section six hundred two of this title to qualify for such base grant unless the municipality has the approval of the commissioner to expend the base grant on a portion of such core public health services. If any services in such section are not provided, the commissioner may limit the municipality's per capita or base grant to reflect the scope of the reduced services. The commissioner may use the amount that is not granted to contract with agencies, associations, or organizations to provide such services; or the health department may use such proportionate share to provide the services upon approval of the director of the division of the budget.
2. State aid reimbursement for public health services provided by a municipality under this title, shall be made if the municipality is providing some or all of the core public health services identified in section six hundred two of this title, pursuant to an approved application for state aid, at a rate of no less than thirty-six per centum, except for the city of New York which shall receive no less than twenty per centum, of the difference between the amount of moneys expended by the municipality for public health services required by section six hundred two of this title during the fiscal year and the base grant provided pursuant to subdivision one of this section. No such reimbursement shall be provided for services that are not eligible for state aid pursuant to this article.
3. Municipalities shall make every reasonable effort to collect payments for public health services provided. All such revenues shall be reported to the commissioner pursuant to section six hundred six of this title and will be deducted from expenditures identified under subdivision two of this section to produce a net cost eligible for state aid.
