About This Audit
Lankenau Medical Center engaged in procedures to determine its eligibility for payments under Pennsylvania’s Tobacco Settlement Act for uncompensated care and extraordinary expenses. The medical center submitted claims data for fiscal year 2024, and of the 18 extraordinary expense claims reported, seven met the criteria for qualification. Errors were found in reported inpatient and Medical Assistance days for fiscal year 2023. Adjustments to claims and reported days must be made by the center to maintain database accuracy. Eligible claims may grant the facility a 2026 Tobacco Settlement subsidy, with the facility allowed to choose between uncompensated care and extraordinary expense methods. Additional claims can be submitted until October 31, 2025. The report’s distribution includes several officials in the Department of Human Services and Main Line Health System executives.
