Missouri Revised Statutes Title XII. Public Health and Welfare § 208.457. Report annually by hospitals required, content--filed with department of social services

Each hospital shall keep such records as may be necessary to determine the amount of its federal reimbursement allowance. On or before September 1, 1992 and the first day of January of each year thereafter every hospital as defined by section 197.020 shall submit to the department of social services a statement that accurately reflects if the hospital is publicly or privately owned, if the hospital is operated primarily for the care and treatment of mental disorders, if the hospital is operated by the department of health and senior services, or if the hospital accepts payment for services rendered. Every hospital required to pay the federal reimbursement allowance shall also submit a statement that accurately reflects total Missouri Medicaid hospital days, total unreimbursed care as determined from the hospital's third prior year desk-reviewed cost report and all other information as may be necessary to implement sections 208.450 1 to 208.480. If the hospital does not have a third prior year desk-reviewed cost report, unreimbursed care shall be based on estimates determined by the department of social services as established by rule and regulation.
