(1) The agency makes supplemental payments for the uncompensated and allowable costs incurred while providing GEMT services to clients, as defined by the United States Office of Management and Budget (OMB).
(a) The amount of supplemental payments, when combined with the amount received from all other sources of reimbursement from the medicaid program, will not exceed one hundred percent of allowable costs.
(b) If the participating provider does not have any uncompensated care costs, then the participating provider will not receive payment under this program.
