Explanation
(This amendment requires the transfer of $1.0 million from the Trauma Center Fund to the general fund in each year of the biennium. Revenues to hospitals from the Trauma Center Fund have exceeded initial expectations by more than $4.0 million annually. After this transfer, trauma centers will continue to receive approximately $7.2 million each year from the fund.)
