BACKGROUND: 

In order to preserve access to inpatient and outpatient hospital services for needy individuals in the State of Nevada, the State’s Medicaid hospital reimbursement system shall provide supplemental payments to University Medical Center (UMC).  In consideration of these payments, Clark County will make payment to the DHCFP in an amount equal to the federally required participation share of the total inpatient and outpatient Medicaid Upper Payment Limit (UPL) supplemental payments made to UMC.

On March 16, 2021 the Board of County Commissioners authorized the interlocal contract from July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2023.  This amendment will extend the term of the contract through June 30, 2025.
