Definition
 
Medicaid non-Disproportionate Share Hospital supplemental payments and other Medicaid payments are Medicaid upper payment limit (UPL) supplemental payments; payments made from funding pools created under Medicaid demonstrations, such as payments from low-income pools, uncompensated care pools, and similar special funding pools established and paid under Medicaid waiver authority; Medicaid Graduate Medical Education (GME) payments; and other payments, such as enhanced payment rates or bonus payments made to certain health care providers. In addition, this payment category included bundled payments, i.e., episodic Medicaid payments in which payments are based on a predetermined cost for a clinically defined bundle or episode of care.
