Sec. YY-1. MaineCare services. A hospital-based physician practice that bills as "hospital services" services provided to Medicaid members may not discontinue acceptance of new MaineCare patients and may not limit services to MaineCare patients in any manner that differs from the acceptance and service limitation policies that apply to patients with any other payment source. The Governor's Office of Health Policy and Finance shall work collaboratively with the Maine Hospital Association to collect all necessary financial data to analyze hospital-based physician reimbursement and its impact on the Medicaid budget and recommend appropriate restructuring of that reimbursement methodology to maximize access and cost-effectiveness to the Department of Human Services.
