Summary


Chapter 59H-2 – Shared County and State Health Care Program. This rule is being repealed. The Shared County and State Health Care Program (Program) Rule was implemented under Section 409.2673, F.S., and was created in March of 1989. The Program was created to cover hospital costs for low income persons who did not meet the criteria for Medicaid or other state-funded or federally funded programs which included hospital care. The funding for the Program was based on a formula whereby a county provided 35% and the State provided 65%, or under certain circumstances, the State would provide 100% funding. This Program has never been funded and was never active.
