UPMC Williamsport – Lycoming County – Tobacco Settlement Payment Data for Year 2026

In November 2025, the UPMC Williamsport facility was evaluated for eligibility under the Tobacco Settlement Act, which provides funds for hospitals offering uncompensated care. The act allows payments through either an uncompensated care or extraordinary expense approach. UPMC Williamsport reported 11 potentially eligible extraordinary expense claims for fiscal year ending June 30, 2024, and all met the criteria for qualification. The evaluation also verified the accuracy of submitted inpatient and Medical Assistance days for fiscal year ending June 30, 2023. The Pennsylvania Health Care Cost Containment Council will guide any necessary adjustments in the claims database. The Department of Human Services will calculate UPMC Williamsport’s 2026 Tobacco Settlement subsidy entitlement using verified data. This is an automated summary.
