45. Medicaid - Final Certification of Outstanding Retrospective Billing
Attachment: FinalCertificationAmtAugust12012.pdf -- Staff and Legal decided to recommendation of taking the 15 percent discount and not challenging Tallahassee's plan. Challenging could get more costly than any amount saved. Thousands of billings would have to be researched to determine proper address and identification. The year being used to determine the billing is 2008 and many people have moved and are hard to find. The total amount to be returned to Tallahassee could be as much as $5 million or as low as $3 million. Motion to take the 15 percent discount and move forward -- Approved, Unanimous

A motion to have Hunsicker move forward with the program -- Approved, Unanimous
COMMISSIONER COMMENTS

-- Commissioner Bustle suggested the commission rethink the Port Manatee's connector route and get the EIS done.
-- Commissioner McClash entered into the record a briefing detailing the use of PAC's and EOC's in heavily-funded attack ads in the August 14 primary.
