Penn Presbyterian Medical Center – Philadelphia County – Tobacco Settlement Payment Data Year 2027

The 2027 Tobacco Settlement Program report for Penn Presbyterian Medical Center evaluates the eligibility of payments for uncompensated care and extraordinary expenses under the Tobacco Settlement Act. The facility did not qualify for extraordinary expense payments as they did not submit necessary documentation, relying instead on the uncompensated care score, which uses data elements like uncompensated care costs and inpatient days. DHS and the Pennsylvania Health Care Cost Containment Council assessed the accuracy of these data elements from submitted reports. Reported claims were found ineligible, and discrepancies in reported medical assistance days, due to reporting errors, require facility adjustments. The report outlines the implications of these results, including revised cost reports necessary for future subsidy payment eligibility. Failure to submit claims means the facility waives the right to enter additional claims for previous fiscal years. This is an automated summary.
