Amends GS 108A-I45.3 by amending the following definitions as they apply to the Hospital Assessment Act. Defines
Consumer Price Index: All Urban consumers as the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers for the South Region
published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the US Department of Labor (was, the most recent Consumer Price index for All
Urban Consumers for the South Region published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the US Department of Labor available
on March 1 of the previous State fiscal year). Defines the Consumer Price Index: Medical Care as the Consumer Price Index
(was, most recent Consumer Price Index) for all Urban Consumers for Medical Care, US city average, seasonally adjusted,
published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics of the US Department of Labor. Defines Medicare Economic Index as the percent
change in the Medicare Economic Index established in rule by CMS and in effect on March 1 of the previous State fiscal year
(was, the index published by the Medicare Economic Index Technical Advisory Panel).
Further amends GS 108A-I47.7, concerning the State administrative component, to set the State administration subcomponent
for each quarter of the 2024-25 Sate fiscal year at $4,187,700 (was, $4,050,000 increased by the Consumer Price Index: All

change in the Consumer Price Index: All Urban consumers for the most recent 12 months available on the first day of the

subcomponent and the county administration subcomponent for subsequent State fiscal years so that it is tied to the changes in
