It is the intent of the Legislature that if services meeting the conditions of subdivision (a) of Section 14132.92 have been provided to a Medi-Cal beneficiary during the time period of June 15, 1998, to July 2, 2000, and notwithstanding Section 14115, a bill for these services is submitted on behalf of each beneficiary receiving these services postmarked to the department on or before April 30, 2001, the services shall be reimbursed by the General Fund. However, the department shall seek federal financial participation and shall seek federal approval of a state plan amendment if necessary under Section 440.150 of Title 42 of the Code of Federal Regulations, for these services provided during that period. If federal financial participation is not made available for that period, the services nonetheless shall be reimbursed from the General Fund.

(Added by Stats. 2000, Ch. 804, Sec. 2. Effective September 28, 2000.)
