21	(d) For purposes of this section the following words and phrases have the following
22	meanings:
23	(1) "Hospital" means the actual facilities and buildings in existence in Rhode Island,
24	licensed pursuant to § 23-17-1 et seq. on June 30, 2010, and thereafter any premises included on
25	that license, regardless of changes in licensure status pursuant to chapter 17.14 of title 23 (hospital
26	conversions) and § 23-17-6(b) (change in effective control), that provides short-term acute inpatient
27	and/or outpatient care to persons who require definitive diagnosis and treatment for injury, illness,
28	disabilities, or pregnancy. Notwithstanding the preceding language, the negotiated Medicaid
29	managed care payment rates for a court-approved purchaser that acquires a hospital through
30	receivership, special mastership, or other similar state insolvency proceedings (which court-
31	approved purchaser is issued a hospital license after January 1, 2013) shall be based upon the newly
32	negotiated rates between the court-approved purchaser and the health plan, and such rates shall be
33	effective as of the date that the court-approved purchaser and the health plan execute the initial
34	agreement containing the newly negotiated rate. The rate-setting methodology for inpatient hospital
	LC002461 - Page 41 of 53
1	payments and outpatient hospital payments set forth in §§ 40-8-13.4(b) and 40-8-13.4(b)(2),
2	respectively, shall thereafter apply to negotiated increases for each annual twelve-month (12)
3	period as of July 1 following the completion of the first full year of the court-approved purchaser's
4	initial Medicaid managed care contract.
5	(2) "Gross patient-services revenue" means the gross revenue related to patient care
6	services.
7	(3) "Net patient-services revenue" means the charges related to patient care services less
8	(i) charges attributable to charity care; (ii) bad debt expenses; and (iii) contractual allowances. For
9	any taxable year beginning on or after January 1, 2020, net patient-services revenue includes the
10	amount of any Payroll Protection Program loan forgiven for federal income tax purposes as
11	authorized by the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act and/or the Consolidated
12	Appropriations Act, 2021 and/or any other subsequent federal stimulus relief packages enacted by
13	law, to the extent that the amount of loan forgiven exceeds $150,000 and to the extent the funds
14	from any Payroll Protection Program loan otherwise would be included in net patient-services
15	revenue of the Hospital by law.
16	(e) The tax administrator shall make and promulgate any rules, regulations, and procedures
17	not inconsistent with state law and fiscal procedures that he or she deems necessary for the proper
18	administration of this section and to carry out the provisions, policy, and purposes of this section.
19	(f) The licensing fee imposed by subsection (b) shall apply to hospitals as defined herein
20	that are duly licensed on July 1, 2019, and shall be in addition to the inspection fee imposed by §
21	23-17-38 and to any licensing fees previously imposed in accordance with this section.
22	(g) The licensing fee imposed by subsection (c) shall apply to hospitals as defined herein
23	that are duly licensed on July 1, 2020, and shall be in addition to the inspection fee imposed by §
24	23-17-38 and to any licensing fees previously imposed in accordance with this section.
25	SECTION 2. Section 44-1-2 of the General Laws in Chapter 44-1 entitled “'Powers and

18	except to the extent necessary for the requesting department or agency to adjudicate a violation of
19	applicable law. The certification must include a representation that there is probable cause to
20	believe that a violation has occurred. State departments sharing this information or materials may
21	enter into written agreements via memorandums of understanding to ensure the safeguarding of
22	such released information or materials; and

5	Economic Security Act and/or the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021, and/or any other
6	subsequent federal stimulus relief packages enacted by law, from state tax based on revenue
7	estimates in any given year.
8	SECTION 3. Section 44-11-11 of the General Laws in Chapter 44-11 entitled “'Net
