About This Audit
Conemaugh Miners Medical Center underwent an audit regarding the 2027 Tobacco Settlement Program to ascertain eligibility for payments for uncompensated care services per the Tobacco Settlement Act. Eligible facilities receive payments based on uncompensated care scores or extraordinary expenses. For the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025, Conemaugh Miners Medical Center reported no eligible extraordinary expense claims, thus not qualifying under this method unless additional claims are submitted and approved. Substantiated data revealed minor reporting errors in inpatient days and MA days for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2024. The audit results help determine each hospital’s eligibility for subsidy under the Tobacco Settlement Program, and payments are calculated and distributed by the Department of Human Services. This is an automated summary. Please rely on the contents included in the released audit report.
