This legislation attempts to provide support for GME comparable to the level of Medicare GME support received by other, non-children’s hospitals.

Data are collected on the number of full-time equivalent residents in applicant children’s hospitals’ training programs to determine the amount of direct and indirect medical education payments to be distributed to participating children’s hospitals. Indirect medical education payments will also be derived from a formula that requires the reporting of discharges, beds, and case mix index information from participating children’s hospitals. Hospitals will be requested to submit such information in an annual application.

of individuals with significant (severe) mental illness (adults) or
