Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, the Director of the Division of Local Government Services shall take such actions as may be necessary to ensure that proportional amounts of the Consolidated Municipal Property Tax Relief Aid and the amounts transferred from Consolidated Municipal Property Tax Relief Aid to the Energy Tax Receipts Property Tax Relief Aid account appropriated to offset losses from business personal property tax that would have otherwise been used for the support of public schools will be used to reduce the school property tax levy for those affected school districts with the remaining State Aid used as municipal property tax relief.

Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, the release of the total annual amount due for the current fiscal year from Consolidated Municipal Property Tax Relief Aid to municipalities is subject to the following condition: the municipality shall submit to the Director of the Division of Local Government Services a report describing the municipality's compliance with the "Best Practices Inventory" established by the Director of the Division of Local Government Services and shall receive at least a minimum score on such inventory as determined by the Director of the Division of Local Government Services; provided, however, that the director may take into account the particular circumstances of a municipality.

For purposes of this paragraph, a “major local business ratable” means one or more related parcels of property owned by a single business entity, classified as commercial or industrial, which comprised the largest assessed valuation of any one or more line items of taxable property in a municipality, or generated an annual PILOT payment in excess of 10% of the total municipal levy, or is otherwise determined by the director to be of such significance to a municipality that its destruction or loss has resulted in financial distress; provided, however, that

Of the amount hereinabove appropriated for Transitional Aid to Localities and the amount appropriated from the Cannabis Regulatory, Enforcement Assistance, and Marketplace Modernization Fund for Transitional Aid to Localities, amounts may be allocated by the Director of the Division of Local Government Services to any State agency or department, county, or county improvement authority to pay for services provided to or on behalf of a participating municipal government unit pursuant to a memorandum of understanding between that State agency or department, county, or county improvement authority, as applicable and the Division of Local Government Services, subject to the approval of the Director of the Division of Budget and Accounting. The amount hereinabove appropriated for Transitional Aid to Localities and the amount appropriated from the Cannabis Regulatory, Enforcement Assistance, and Marketplace Modernization Fund for Transitional Aid to Localities is subject to the following condition: notwithstanding the provisions of R.S.43:21-14, or any other law or regulation to the contrary, the Commissioner of Labor and Workforce Development, in consultation with the Commissioner of Community Affairs, is authorized to enter into individualized payment plan agreements with municipalities that receive Transitional Aid for the reimbursement of unemployment benefits paid to former employees of such municipal government units, at reasonable interest rates based on current market conditions, and on such other terms and conditions as may be determined to be appropriate by the Commissioner of Labor and Workforce Development. Any municipality that enters into an individualized payment plan agreement pursuant to this section shall be required to expend all funds budgeted for this activity remaining as of the last day of its budget year for the repayment of outstanding obligations under the plan. Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, the amount hereinabove appropriated for Transitional Aid to Localities and the amount appropriated from the Cannabis Regulatory, Enforcement Assistance, and Marketplace Modernization Fund for Transitional Aid to Localities shall be allocated to provide short-term financial assistance where needed to help a municipality that is in serious fiscal distress meet immediate budgetary needs and regain financial stability. A municipality shall be deemed to be eligible for transitional aid if it is identified by the Director of the Division of Local Government Services as experiencing serious fiscal distress where the director determines that, despite local officials having implemented substantive cost reduction strategies, there continue to exist conditions of serious fiscal distress, which may include but shall not be limited to: substantial structural or accumulated deficits; ongoing reliance on non-recurring revenues; limited ability to raise supplemental non- property tax revenues; extraordinary demands for public safety appropriations; and other factors indicating a constrained ability to raise sufficient revenues to meet

Municipalities seeking transitional aid shall file an application on a form prescribed by the director, which application, among other things, shall set forth the minimum criteria that must be met in order for an application to be considered by the director for a determination of eligibility. The director shall determine whether a municipality which files an application meeting such minimum criteria is in serious fiscal distress, and, if so, what amount of transitional aid should be provided to address the municipality's serious fiscal distress. The transitional aid shall be provided to the municipality subject to the provisions of subsection a. of section 1 of P.L.2011, c.144 (C.52:27D-118.42a); provided, however, that an amount of Transitional Aid to Localities as determined by the Director of the Division of Local Government Services for a municipality may be deemed to constitute Consolidated Municipal Property Tax Relief Aid in an amount not in excess of the amount of Transitional Aid to Localities such municipality received in the previous fiscal year and shall not reduce the amount of Consolidated Municipal Property Tax Relief Aid such municipality shall receive for the current fiscal year. Provided, however, if the Director of the Division of Local Government Services deems an amount of Transitional Aid to Localities for a municipality as constituting Consolidated Municipal Property Tax Relief Aid pursuant to this provision, that municipality is not relieved from compliance with the requirements for transitional aid. Notwithstanding the provisions of any law to the contrary, the amount hereinabove appropriated for Shared Services and School District Consolidation Study and Implementation shall be used to provide grants to municipalities and counties through the Local Efficiency Achievement Program for its purposes or for the purpose of contracting with an individual or firm that has a demonstrated track record of successfully completed operational reviews and assessments to conduct local government efficiency reviews. Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, whenever funds appropriated as State Aid and payable to any municipality, which municipality requests and receives the approval of the Local Finance Board, such funds may be pledged as a guarantee for payment of principal and interest on any bond anticipation notes issued pursuant to section 11 of P.L.2003, c.15 (C.40A:2-8.1) and any tax anticipation notes issued pursuant to N.J.S.40A:4-64 by such municipality. Such funds, if so pledged, shall be made available by the State Treasurer upon receipt of a written notification by the Director of the Division of Local Government Services that the municipality does not have sufficient funds available for prompt payment of principal and interest on such notes, and shall be paid by the State Treasurer directly to the holders of such notes at such time and in such amounts as specified by the director, notwithstanding that payment of such funds does not coincide with any date for payment otherwise fixed by law. Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, any qualifying municipality, as defined in section 1 of P.L.1978, c.14 (C.52:27D-178) for the previous fiscal year, shall continue to be a qualifying municipality thereunder during the current fiscal year. The State Treasurer, in consultation with the Commissioner of Community Affairs, is empowered to direct the Director of the Division of Budget and Accounting to transfer appropriations from any State department to any other State department as may be necessary to provide a loan for a term not to exceed 180 days to a local government unit faced with a fiscal crisis, including but not limited to a potential

Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, as a condition of the receipt of any monies hereunder by an acute care hospital that is requesting an advance of charity care/NJ FamilyCare or payments from the "Health Care Facilities Improvement Fund" or any payments over and above this act, the hospital shall comply with a request by the Commissioner of Health for a review of its finances and operations to ensure that access to health care is maintained and public funds are utilized for their intended purposes.

In the event that a disproportionate share hospital declines Charity Care funding as authorized by this paragraph or is determined to have received excess Charity Care payments pursuant to any required audit, the amount of declined or excess Charity Care payments, or both, shall be redistributed in the following manner: If the hospital is affiliated with a multiple-hospital health system, declined and excess Charity Care payments shall be redistributed to other hospitals within the state that are affiliated with the same hospital’s multiple-hospital health system on the date the redistribution, as a percentage of the individual hospital’s Documented Charity Care affiliated with the payment year, to the total multi-hospital health system’s Documented Charity Care affiliated with the same payment year. This redistribution calculation within the multi-hospital health system shall be recursive as necessary to the hospitals to which the Charity Care payments shall be redistributed do not receive excess Charity Care payments per the audits in accordance with 42 CFR 447.299. If the hospital that is declining or receiving excess Charity Care payments, or both, is not affiliated with a multiple-hospital health system, or if the hospital is affiliated with a multiple-hospital health system but cannot redistribute Charity Care payments to hospitals within its affiliated health system because it will result in excess Charity Care payments per the audits in accordance with 42 CFR 447.299, the declined and excess Charity Care payments shall be redistributed in accordance with the provisions of section 3 of P.L.2004, c.113 (C.26:2H-18.59i).

If an eligible hospital closes before June 30th, the hospital shall reimburse the State for any portion of the subsidy covering the period following its closure date, calculated on a standard monthly basis. If the hospital fails to reimburse the State, then in accordance with the provisions of N.J.A.C.8:31B-5.1 and subject to the approval of the Commissioner of the Department of Health, the State may elect to apply an offset to Medicaid payments to other hospitals within the same hospital system, as defined by N.J.A.C.8:33-1.3. Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, the appropriation for the Health Care Subsidy Fund Payments is subject to the following condition: the distribution of charity care subsidy payments to acute care hospitals that are licensed and operational as of July 1, 2026, shall be calculated using the following methodology: (1) each hospital shall be ranked in order of its hospital- specific, relative charity care percentage, or RCCP, based on the audited 2024 Acute Care Hospital (ACH) Cost Reports, by dividing the amount of hospital-specific gross revenue for charity care patients by the hospital’s total gross revenue for all patients; (2) the nine privately-owned hospitals with the highest RCCP shall receive a charity care payment equal to 20 percent of each hospital’s hospital-specific calendar year 2024 documented charity care; (3) publicly-owned hospitals with an operating margin less than or equal to negative 15 percent shall receive a Charity Care subsidy

In the event the hospital completed a merger, acquisition, or business combination resulting in two cost reports filed during the calendar year, two cost reports will be combined into one or a supplemental cost report for the calendar year 2024 submitted by the affected acute care hospital by January 31, 2026 shall be used. In the event that a hospital did not report its Medicaid managed care days on the cost report utilized in this calculation, the Department of Health (DOH) shall ascertain Medicaid managed care encounter days for Medicaid and NJ FamilyCare clients as reported by insurers to the State as per source data defined in (b) above; (d) Medicaid managed care DME cost begins with the intern and residency program costs using the 2024 submitted Medicaid cost report total residency costs, reported on Worksheet B Pt I Column 21 Line 21 plus Worksheet B Pt I Column 22 Line 22 divided by the 2024 resident full time equivalent employees (FTE), reported on Worksheet S-3 Pt 1 Column 9 line 14 to develop an average cost per resident FTE for each hospital; (e) median cost per resident FTE is calculated based on the average cost per resident FTE for each hospital; (f) the median cost per resident FTE is multiplied by the 2024 resident FTEs reported on Worksheet S-3 Pt 1 Column 9 Line 14 to develop total median residency program cost for each hospital; (g) median residency costs are multiplied by the ratio of Medicaid managed care days, reported on Worksheet S-3 Column 7 Line 2, divided by the difference of total days, reported on Worksheet S-3 Column 8 Line 14, less nursery days, reported on Worksheet S-3 Column 8 Line 13 to determine the Medicaid managed care DME cost of each hospital; (h) Medicaid managed care IME cost is defined as the Medicare IME factor multiplied by Medicaid managed care encounter payments as per source data defined in (b) above; (i) the IME factor is calculated using the Medicare IME formula as follows: 1.35 * [(1 + x) ^0.405 - 1], in which “x” is the ratio of submitted IME resident FTEs reported on Worksheet S-3 Pt 1 Column 9 Line 14 divided by the difference of total available beds, reported on Worksheet S-3 Column 2 Line 14, less nursery beds, reported on Worksheet S-3 Column 2 Line 13; (j) total 2024 Medicaid managed care GME costs shall equal total 2024 Medicaid managed care IME costs plus total 2024 Medicaid managed care DME costs; (k) the 2024 total Medicaid managed care DME costs is divided by the total 2024 Medicaid managed care GME costs; (l) the DME allocation portion is calculated by multiplying the total subsidy amount by the ratio in (k) above; (m) each hospital’s percentage of total 2024 Medicaid managed care DME costs shall be multiplied by the DME allocation to calculate its DME payment; (n) the 2024 total Medicaid managed care IME costs are divided by the total 2024 Medicaid managed care GME costs; (o) the IME allocation portion is calculated by multiplying the total subsidy amount by the ratio in (n) above; (p) each hospital’s percentage of total 2024 Medicaid managed care IME

The total GME Subsidy amount and these payments shall not exceed $218,000,000 and shall be paid in 12 monthly payments; (r) in the event that a hospital believes that there are mathematical errors in the calculations, or data not matching the actual source documents used to calculate the subsidy as defined above, hospitals shall be permitted to file calculation appeals within 15 working days of receipt of the subsidy allocation letter. If upon review it is determined by the DOH that the error has occurred and would constitute at least a five percent change in the hospital’s allocation amount, a revised industry-wide allocation shall be issued; (s) each hospital receiving a GME allocation shall, on or before May 31, 2027, provide a report to the Commissioner of Health indicating the total number of physicians who completed their training during the preceding calendar year, and the number of those physicians who plan to practice medicine within the State of New Jersey.

To satisfy this condition, participating hospitals may develop an internal training program, enter into a partnership with a school or university, or provide financial support for residents and fellows to participate in independent educational programs or conferences that provide continuing medical education credits that are specifically focused in the subject area of addiction. To document compliance, participating hospitals shall complete a report to the Department of Health no later than May 31, 2027.

The GME-T Subsidy shall be calculated using the same methodology as the GME Subsidy is calculated in this act, except the total aggregate amount of the GME-T Subsidy payments to eligible hospitals shall not exceed $84,500,000. Of the amounts hereinabove appropriated to Holy Name Hospital, Teaneck - Palliative Care Pilot Program, amounts may be transferred to the Division of Medical Assistance and Health Services, consistent with Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services guidelines, solely to maximize federal Medicaid payments to faculty physicians and non-physician professionals who are affiliated with Holy Name Hospital, subject to the approval of the Director of the Division of Budget and Accounting.

The unexpended balance at the end of the preceding fiscal year in the Support of Patients in County Psychiatric Hospitals account is appropriated for the same purpose. Notwithstanding the provisions of R.S.30:4-78, or any law or regulation to the contrary, the State share of payments from the Support of Patients in County Psychiatric Hospitals account to the several county psychiatric facilities on behalf of the reasonable cost of maintenance of patients deemed to be county indigents shall be at the rate of 125 percent of the rate established by the Commissioner of Human Services, in consultation with the Commissioner of Health, for the period July 1 to December 31 and at the rate of 45 percent of the rate established by the Commissioner of Human Services, in consultation with the Commissioner of Health, for the period January 1 to June 30 such that the total amount to be paid by the State on behalf of county indigent patients for the calendar year shall not exceed 85 percent of the total reasonable per capita cost; and further provided that the rate at which the State will reimburse the county psychiatric hospitals shall not exceed 100 percent of the per capita rate at which each county pays to the State for the reasonable cost of maintenance and clothing of each patient residing in a State psychiatric facility, excluding the depreciation, interest and carry-forward adjustment components of this rate, and including the depreciation, interest, and carry-forward adjustment components of each individual county psychiatric hospital's rate established for the period January 1 to December 31 by the Commissioner of Human Services in consultation with the Commissioner of Health. The initial determination of whether a county hospital rate exceeds the per capita rate that counties pay to the State on behalf of applicable patients residing in a State psychiatric facility will be based on a comparison of estimated cost used to set reimbursement rates for the upcoming calendar year. A second comparison of the actual per diem costs of the county psychiatric hospital and State psychiatric hospitals will be completed after actual cost reports for the period are available including an inflationary adjustment for the six-month difference in fiscal reporting periods between State and county hospitals. The county hospital carry-forward adjustment to be included in rates paid by the State will exclude costs found to exceed 100 percent of the actual cost rate of the State psychiatric facilities. Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, the amount hereinabove appropriated for Support of Patients in County Psychiatric Hospitals is conditioned upon the following provision: payments to county psychiatric hospitals

County psychiatric hospitals shall submit such claims no less frequently than quarterly and within 15 days of the close of each quarter. With the exception of all past, present, and future revenues representing federal financial participation received by the State from the United States that is based on payments to hospitals that serve a disproportionate share of low-income patients, which shall be retained by the State, the sharing of revenues received to defray the State Aid appropriation for the costs of maintaining patients in State and county psychiatric hospitals shall be based on the same percent as costs are shared between the State and counties. The amount hereinabove appropriated for State Aid reimbursement payments for maintenance of patients in county psychiatric facilities shall be limited to inpatient services only, except that such reimbursement shall be paid to a county for outpatient and partial hospitalization services as defined by the Department of Human Services, if outpatient and/or partial hospitalization services had been previously provided at the county psychiatric facility prior to January 1, 1998. These outpatient and partial hospitalization payments shall not exceed the amount of State Aid funds paid to reimburse outpatient and partial hospitalization services provided during calendar year 1997. In addition, any revision or expansion to the number of inpatient beds or inpatient services provided at such hospitals which will have a material impact on the amount of State Aid payments made for such services, must first be approved by the Department of Human Services before such change is implemented. The amount hereinabove appropriated for the Division of Mental Health and Addiction Services for State facility operations and the amount appropriated as State Aid for the costs of county facility operations are first charged to the federal Disproportionate Share Hospital (DSH) reimbursements anticipated as Medicaid uncompensated care. Accordingly, DSH revenues earned by the State related to services provided by county psychiatric hospitals which are supported through this State Aid appropriation shall be considered as the first source supporting the State Aid appropriation. In addition to the amounts hereinabove appropriated for the Support of Patients in County Psychiatric Hospitals, in the event that the Assistant Commissioner of the Division of Mental Health and Addiction Services determines that, in order to provide the least restrictive setting appropriate, a patient should be admitted to a county psychiatric hospital in a county other than the one in which the patient is domiciled rather than to a State psychiatric hospital, there are hereby appropriated such additional amounts as may be required, as determined by the Assistant Commissioner to reimburse a county for the extra costs, if any, which were incurred in connection with the care of such patient in a county psychiatric hospital which exceeded the cost of care which would have been incurred had the patient been placed in a State psychiatric hospital, subject to the approval of the Director of the Division of Budget and Accounting. The amount hereinabove appropriated for Support of Patients in County Psychiatric Hospitals is conditioned upon the following provisions: County psychiatric hospitals shall: (1) enroll and continue to maintain enrollment as providers in the State's NJ FamilyCare program; (2) complete or pursue in good faith the completion of eligibility applications for patients who could be NJ FamilyCare eligible; (3) bill the NJ FamilyCare program for all applicable services; and (4) neither admit nor discharge patients based upon NJ FamilyCare eligibility.

Notwithstanding the provisions of R.S.30:4-78, or any other law or regulation to the contrary, the amount hereinabove appropriated for Support of Patients in County Psychiatric Hospitals is conditioned upon the following provisions: for rates effective January 1, 2013, and any prior year rate adjustments that may be required beginning January 1, 2013, the approval of the State House Commission shall not be required for the setting of such rates and the Commissioner of Human Services, in consultation with the Commissioner of Health, shall set: (1) the per capita cost rates to be paid by the State to the several counties on behalf of the reasonable cost of maintenance of State and county patients in any county psychiatric facility, including outpatient psychiatric services, (2) the per capita rates which each county shall pay to the Treasurer for the reasonable cost of maintenance and clothing of each patient residing in a State psychiatric facility having a legal settlement in such county (“County Patients”), (3) the rates to be paid for the reasonable cost of maintenance and clothing of the convict and criminal mentally ill in any State psychiatric facility and the cost of maintenance of County Patients residing in State developmental centers or receiving other residential functional services for the developmentally disabled. Such rates will be fixed no later than October 1 of each calendar year. Notice of such rates shall be provided by the Commissioner of Human Services to the clerk of the respective boards of chosen freeholders. In the event that the Division of Mental Health and Addiction Services is notified that a county psychiatric hospital will cease operations for the current fiscal year, or any portion thereof, in order to assure continuity of care for patients who otherwise would have been served by the county hospital, as well as to preserve patient and public safety, the Division shall have the authority to transfer funds from the Support of Patients in County Psychiatric Hospitals account to Direct State Services and Grants-In-Aid accounts in the Division of Mental Health and Addiction Services, for the fiscal year, subject to a plan approved by the Director of the Division of Budget and Accounting. Notwithstanding the provisions of R.S.30:4-78, or any law or regulation to the contrary, with respect to the amount hereinabove appropriated for Support of Patients in County Psychiatric Hospitals, commencing January 1, 2010, the State shall pay to each county an amount equal to 35 percent of the total per capita costs for the reasonable cost of maintenance and clothing of county patients in State psychiatric facilities. In addition to the amount hereinabove appropriated for the Support of Patients in County Psychiatric Hospitals (PTRF), such additional amounts as determined by the Commissioner of Human Services are appropriated for the same purpose, subject to the approval of the Director of the Division of Budget and Accounting. Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, in addition to the amount hereinabove appropriated for Support of Patients in County Psychiatric Hospitals, $10,000,000 is appropriated to a psychiatric hospital owned by a county with a ratio of maintained beds-to-licensed beds greater than 80 percent, according to the four quarters of 2025 data from the B-2 Quarterly Inpatient Utilization Report

Benefits provided under the Pharmaceutical Assistance to the Aged and Disabled (PAAD) program, P.L.1975, c.194 (C.30:4D-20 et seq.), and the Senior Gold Prescription Discount Program, P.L.2001, c.96 (C.30:4D-43 et seq.), shall be the last resource benefits, notwithstanding any provisions contained in contracts, wills, agreements, or other instruments.

Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, no funds appropriated in the Pharmaceutical Assistance to the Aged and Disabled program classification and the Senior Gold Prescription Discount Program account shall be expended for fee-for-service prescription drug claims with no Medicare Part D coverage except under the following conditions: (1) the maximum allowable cost for legend and non-legend drugs shall be calculated based on Actual Acquisition Cost (AAC) defined as the lowest of (i) the National Average Drug Acquisition Cost (NADAC) Retail Price Survey, developed in accordance with subsection (f) of section 1927 of the Social Security Act; (ii) Wholesale Acquisition Cost (WAC) less a volume discount, in the absence of a NADAC price, that is consistent with the NJ FamilyCare program; (iii) the federal upper limit; or (iv) the State upper limit (SUL); and (v) cost acquisition data submitted by providers of pharmaceutical services for brand-name multi-source drugs and multi-source drugs in the absence of any alternative pricing benchmarks; (2) pharmacy reimbursement for legend and non-legend drugs shall be calculated based on (i) the lower of the AAC plus a professional fee, that is consistent with the NJ FamilyCare program; or a provider’s usual and customary charge; or (ii) the lower of cost acquisition data submitted by providers of pharmaceutical services for brand-name multi-source and multi-source drugs, where an alternative pricing benchmark is not available, plus a professional fee that is consistent with the NJ FamilyCare program; or a provider’s usual and customary charge. For legend drugs purchased through the 340B Drug Pricing Program, the maximum allowable cost shall be based on the 340B ceiling price. In the absence of a 340B ceiling price, the alternative benchmark used shall be the WAC minus a volume discount of 25 percent. The 340B ceiling price or the

Reimbursement for covered outpatient drugs shall be calculated based on: (i) the lower of the AAC plus a professional fee of $10.92; or a provider’s usual and customary charge; or (ii) the lower of cost acquisition data submitted by providers of pharmaceutical services for brand-name multi-source and multi-source drugs, where an alternative pricing benchmark is not available, plus a professional fee of $10.92; or a provider’s usual and customary charge. To effectuate the calculation of SUL rates and/or the calculation of single-source and brand-name multi-source legend and non-legend drug costs where an alternative pricing benchmark is not available, the Department of Human Services shall mandate ongoing submission of current drug acquisition data by providers of pharmaceutical services. No funds hereinabove appropriated shall be paid to any entity that fails to submit required data. Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, no funds appropriated for the Pharmaceutical Assistance to the Aged and Disabled (PAAD) program, pursuant to P.L.1975, c.194 (C.30:4D-20 et seq.), or the Senior Gold Prescription Discount Program (Senior Gold), pursuant to P.L.2001, c.96 (C.30:4D- 43 et seq.), shall be expended when PAAD or Senior Gold is the primary payer, unless participating pharmaceutical manufacturing companies execute contracts with the Department of Human Services, provided, however, nothing in this paragraph shall apply to insulin products. Name brand manufacturers must provide for the payment of rebates to the State on the same basis as provided for in subsections (a) through (c) of section 1927 of the federal Social Security Act, 42 U.S.C. s.1396r-8.

Furthermore, rebates from pharmaceutical manufacturing companies for prescriptions purchased by the PAAD program and the Senior Gold Prescription Discount Program shall continue during the current fiscal year, provided that the manufacturer's rebates for PAAD claims paid as secondary to Medicare Part D and for the Senior Gold Prescription Discount Program shall apply only to the amount paid by the State under the PAAD and Senior Gold Prescription Discount Programs. All revenues from such rebates during the current fiscal year are appropriated for the PAAD program and the Senior Gold Prescription Discount Program. In addition to the amount hereinabove appropriated for the Pharmaceutical Assistance to the Aged and Disabled and the Senior Gold Prescription Discount programs, there are appropriated such additional amounts from the General Fund and available federal matching funds as may be required for the payment of claims, credits, and rebates, subject to the approval of the Director of the Division of Budget and Accounting.

The amounts hereinabove appropriated for payments for the Pharmaceutical Assistance to the Aged and Disabled program, P.L.1975, c.194 (C.30:4D-20 et seq.), the Senior Gold Prescription Discount Program, P.L.2001, c.96 (C.30:4D-43 et seq.), and Community Based Senior Programs are available for the payment of obligations applicable to prior fiscal years.

Name brand manufacturers must provide for the payment of rebates to the State on the same basis as provided for in subsections (a) through (c) of section 1927 of the federal Social Security Act, 42 U.S.C. s.1396r-8. Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, no funds appropriated for the Pharmaceutical Assistance to the Aged and Disabled (PAAD) program, pursuant to P.L.1975, c.194 (C.30:4D-20 et seq.), shall be expended unless participating pharmaceutical manufacturing companies execute contracts with the Department of Human Services, providing for the payment of rebates to the State provided, however, nothing in this paragraph shall apply to insulin products.

All revenues from such rebates during the current fiscal year are appropriated for the PAAD program. Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, the appropriations for the Pharmaceutical Assistance to the Aged and Disabled program are conditioned upon the Department of Human Services coordinating benefits with any voluntary prescription drug mail-order or specialty pharmacy in a Medicare Part D provider network or private third party liability plan network for beneficiaries enrolled in a Medicare Part D program or beneficiaries with primary prescription coverage that requires use of mail-order. The mail-order program may waive, discount, or rebate the beneficiary copayment and mail-order pharmacy providers may dispense up to a 90-day supply on prescription refills with the voluntary participation of the beneficiary, subject to the approval of the Commissioner of Human Services and the Director of the Division of Budget and Accounting. Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, the amount hereinabove appropriated to the Pharmaceutical Assistance to the Aged and Disabled (PAAD) program is conditioned upon the Department of Human Services coordinating the benefits of the PAAD program with the prescription drug benefits of the federal "Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement, and Modernization Act of 2003," Pub.L.108-173, as the primary payer due to the current federal prohibition against State automatic enrollment of PAAD program recipients in the federal program. The PAAD program benefit and reimbursement shall only be available to cover the beneficiary cost share to in-network pharmacies and for deductible and coverage gap costs, as determined by the Commissioner of Human Services, associated with enrollment in Medicare Part D for beneficiaries of the PAAD and the Senior Gold Prescription Discount Program, and for Medicare Part D premium costs for PAAD program beneficiaries.

Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, the amount hereinabove appropriated for the Pharmaceutical Assistance to the Aged and Disabled (PAAD) program shall be conditioned upon the following provision: no funds shall be appropriated for the refilling of a prescription drug paid by PAAD as a primary payer until such time as the original prescription is 85 percent finished. Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, no amounts hereinabove appropriated for the Pharmaceutical Assistance to the Aged and Disabled (PAAD) program shall be expended to cover medications not on the formulary of a PAAD program beneficiary's Medicare Part D plan. This exclusion shall not apply to those drugs covered by PAAD which are specifically excluded by the federal Medicare Prescription Drug Program. In addition, this exclusion shall not impact the beneficiary's rights, guaranteed by the "Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement, and Modernization Act of 2003," Pub.L.108-173, to appeal the medical necessity of coverage for drugs not on the formulary of a Medicare Part D plan. Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, no amounts hereinabove appropriated for the Pharmaceutical Assistance to the Aged and Disabled (PAAD) program shall be expended for diabetic testing materials and supplies which are covered under the federal Medicare Part B program, or for vitamins, cough/cold medications, drugs used for the treatment of erectile dysfunction, or cosmetic drugs including but not limited to: drugs used for baldness, weight loss, and skin conditions. Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, no funds appropriated in the Pharmaceutical Assistance to the Aged and Disabled program classification and the Senior Gold Prescription Discount Program account shall be expended for fee-for-service prescription drug claims with no Medicare Part D coverage except under the following conditions: (1) the maximum allowable cost for legend and non-legend drugs shall be calculated based on Actual Acquisition Cost (AAC) defined as the lowest of (i) the National Average Drug Acquisition Cost (NADAC) Retail Price Survey, developed in accordance with subsection (f) of section 1927 of the Social Security Act; (ii) Wholesale Acquisition Cost (WAC) less a volume discount, in the absence of a NADAC price, that is consistent with the NJ FamilyCare program; (iii) the federal upper limit; or (iv) the State upper limit (SUL); and (v) cost acquisition data submitted by providers of pharmaceutical services for brand-name multi-source drugs and multi-source drugs in the absence of any alternative pricing benchmarks; (2) pharmacy reimbursement for legend and non-legend drugs shall be calculated based on (i) the lower of the AAC plus a professional fee, that is consistent with the NJ FamilyCare program; or a provider’s usual and customary charge; or (ii) the lower of cost acquisition data submitted by providers of pharmaceutical services for brand-name multi-source and multi-source

For legend drugs purchased through the 340B Drug Pricing Program, the maximum allowable cost shall be based on the 340B ceiling price. In the absence of a 340B ceiling price, the alternative benchmark used shall be the WAC minus a volume discount of 25 percent. The 340B ceiling price or the alternative benchmark shall only apply when its price is the lowest compared to the pricing formulas described by (i) through (v) above. Reimbursement for covered outpatient drugs shall be calculated based on: (i) the lower of the AAC plus a professional fee of $10.92; or a provider’s usual and customary charge; or (ii) the lower of cost acquisition data submitted by providers of pharmaceutical services for brand-name multi-source and multi-source drugs, where an alternative pricing benchmark is not available, plus a professional fee of $10.92; or a provider’s usual and customary charge. To effectuate the calculation of SUL rates and/or the calculation of single-source and brand-name multi-source legend and non-legend drug costs where an alternative pricing benchmark is not available, the Department of Human Services shall mandate ongoing submission of current drug acquisition data by providers of pharmaceutical services. No funds hereinabove appropriated shall be paid to any entity that fails to submit required data. All funds recovered under P.L.1968, c.413 (C.30:4D-1 et seq.) and P.L.1975, c.194 (C.30:4D-20 et seq.), during the current fiscal year are appropriated for payments to providers in the same program classification from which the recovery originated. Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, a sufficient portion of receipts generated or savings realized in the Casino Revenue Fund or Pharmaceutical Assistance to the Aged and Disabled Grants-In-Aid accounts from initiatives included in the current fiscal year's annual appropriations act may be transferred to administration accounts to fund costs incurred in realizing these additional receipts or savings, subject to the approval of the Director of the Division of Budget and Accounting. Notwithstanding the provisions of any law or regulation to the contrary, of the amount hereinabove appropriated for the Community Based Senior Programs (CRF) account, $106,000 shall be charged to the Casino Simulcasting Fund. In order to permit flexibility in the handling of appropriations and ensure the timely payment of claims to providers of prescription drugs, amounts may be transferred between accounts within the Pharmaceutical Assistance to the Aged and Disabled program classification, subject to the approval of the Director of the Division of Budget and Accounting.
