PUBLIC PROVIDER INTERGOVERNMENTAL TRANSFER PROGRAM FOR
GROUND EMERGENCY MEDICAL TRANSPORTATION SERVICES
CERTIFICATION FORM FOR STATE CALENDAR YEAR 2024
I, the undersigned, hereby declare and certify on behalf of the City of Newport Beach (the
"Public Entity") as follows:
As a public administrator, a public officer, or other public individual, I am duly
authorized to make this certification.
2. The Public Entity elects to make this intergovernmental transfer (IGT) to the
Department of Health Care Service (DHCS) as a voluntary contribution to the
non-federal share of Medi-Cal expenditures for purposes of Assembly Bill 1705
(2019) pursuant to Sections 14105.94, 14105.945, 14129, 14129.3, and 14164 of
the Welfare and Institutions (W&I) Code. All funds transferred pursuant to this
certification qualify for federal financial participation (FFP) pursuant to Section
1903(w) of the Social Security Act and Title 42 of the Code of Federal Regulations,
Section 433 Subpart B, and are not derived from impermissible sources such as
recycled Medicaid payments, federal money excluded from use as the non-federal
share (NFS), impermissible health care -related taxes, or non -bona fide provider -
related donations.
3. Voluntary contributions attributable to the period of January 1, 2023, through
December 31, 2024, will be made via recurring transfers as indicated on the
invoices provided to the Public Entity by DHCS. The voluntary contributions made
by the Public Entity may also include adjustments related to the CY 2023 rating
period's NFS reconciliation as described in paragraph 7 below. Please note, the
total IGT amount at the bottom of this IGT certification will continue to be itemized
on your invoice which is sent to you along with this IGT certification form 45-days
in advance of the IGT contribution due date. The Public Entity acknowledges that
any transfers made pursuant to this certification during this time period are consid-
ered an elective IGT made pursuant to W&I Code sections 14105.945 and 14164,
to be used by DHCS, subject to paragraph four herein, exclusively as the source
for the NFS of ground emergency medical transport public provider supplemental
payments in both Medi-Cal fee -for -service payments and the portion of the risk -
based capitation rate to Medi-Cal managed care health plans associated with re-
imbursement made in accordance with Section 14105.945, subdivision (h)(1)
(hereafter, the AB 1705 Public Provider (PP) Ground Emergency Medical Trans-
portation (GEMT) Program, or the PP-GEMT Program), and DHCS costs associ-
ated with administering the PP-GEMT Program.
4. DHCS may accept this voluntary contribution to the extent it is able to obtain FFP
for the PP-GEMT Program as permitted by federal law. In the event DHCS is
unable to obtain FFP for the PP-GEMT Program, or the full payments cannot
otherwise be made to and retained by eligible public providers, and, therefore, all
or a portion of the transferred amount cannot be used as the NFS of payments,
DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH CARE SERVICES

CERTIFICATION FORM FOR STATE CALENDAR YEAR 2024
DHCS will notify the Public Entity via e-mail and return the applicable portion of the
unused IGT amount.
5. The Public Entity acknowledges that, in accordance with W&I Code section
14105.945, subdivision (h)(2), DHCS shall assess a ten percent (10%) fee on each
transfer of public funds to the state to pay for health care coverage and to reim-
burse DHCS its costs associated with administering the PP-GEMT Program.
6. The Public Entity acknowledges that the IGT is to be used by DHCS for the filing
of a claim with the federal government for federal funds and understands that any
misrepresentation regarding the IGT may violate federal and state law.
7. The amount voluntarily transferred to DHCS is based on the estimated Medi-Cal
fee -for -service and Medi-Cal managed care non-federal share of ground emer-
gency medical transport payments, as referenced in paragraph three herein. Be-
cause the amount to be voluntarily transferred to DHCS will be based on an esti-
mate, the Public Entity acknowledges that a reconciliation of the voluntary NFS
contributions to the actual NFS expenditures will occur. To the degree necessary
to fund the NFS for the PP-GEMT Program, amounts due to or owed by Public
Entity as a result of the reconciliation may be offset against, or added to, future
transfers as applicable and as determined by DHCS. DHCS may accept a volun-
tary contribution to the extent it is able to obtain FFP for PP-GEMT payments as
permitted by federal law.
8. The Public Entity acknowledges that all records of funds transferred are subject
to review and audit upon DHCS' request. The Public Entity will maintain
documentation supporting the allowable funding source of the IGTs.
9. Upon notice from the federal government of a disallowance or deferral related to
this IGT, the Public Entity responsible for this IGT shall be the entity responsible
for the federal portion of that expenditure.
I hereby declare under penalty of perjury under the law of the United States that the
foregoing is true and correct to the best of my knowledge. I further understand that the
known filing of a false or fraudulent claim, or making false statements in support of a
claim, may violate the Federal False Claims Act or other applicable statute and federal
law and may be punishable thereunder.

1. As a public administrator, a public officer, or other public individual, I am duly
authorized to make this certification.
2. The Public Entity elects to make this intergovernmental transfer (IGT) to the
Department of Health Care Service (DHCS) as a voluntary contribution to the
non-federal share of Medi-Cal expenditures for purposes of Assembly Bill 1705
(2019) pursuant to Sections 14105.94, 14105.945, 14129, 14129.3, and 14164 of
the Welfare and Institutions (W&I) Code. All funds transferred pursuant to this
certification qualify for federal financial participation (FFP) pursuant to Section
1903(w) of the Social Security Act and Title 42 of the Code of Federal Regulations,
Section 433 Subpart B, and are not derived from impermissible sources such as
recycled Medicaid payments, federal money excluded from use as the non-federal
share (NFS), impermissible health care -related taxes, or non -bona fide provider -
related donations.
3. Voluntary contributions attributable to the period of January 1, 2023, through
December 31, 2024, will be made via recurring transfers as indicated on the
invoices provided to the Public Entity by DHCS. The voluntary contributions made
by the Public Enty may also include adjustments related to the CY 2023 rating
period's NFS reconciliation as described in paragraph 7 below. Please note, the
total IGT amount at the bottom of this IGT certification will continue to be itemized
on your invoice which is sent to you along with this IGT certification form 45-days
in advance of the IGT contribution due date. The Public Entity acknowledges that
any transfers made pursuant to this certification during this time period are consid-
ered an elective IGT made pursuant to W&I Code sections 14105.945 and 14164,
to be used by DHCS, subject to paragraph four herein, exclusively as the source
for the NFS of ground emergency medical transport public provider supplemental

ated with administering the PP-GEMT Program.

5. The Public Entity acknowledges that, in accordance with W&I Code section
14105.945, subdivision (h)(2), DHCS shall assess a ten percent (10%) fee on each
transfer of public funds to the state to pay for health care coverage and to reim-
burse DHCS its costs associated with administering the PP-GEMT Program.

of a claim with the federal government for federal funds and understands that any

7. The amount voluntarily transferred to DHCS is based on the estimated Medi-Cal
fee -for -service and Medi-Cal managed care non-federal share of ground emer-
gency medical transport payments, as referenced in paragraph three herein. Be-
cause the amount to be voluntarily transferred to DHCS will be based on an esti-
mate, the Public Entity acknowledges that a reconciliation of the voluntary NFS
contributions to the actual NFS expenditures will occur. To the degree necessary
to fund the NFS for the PP-GEMT Program, amounts due to or owed by Public
Entity as a result of the reconciliation may be offset against, or added to, future
transfers as applicable and as determined by DHCS. DHCS may accept a volun-
tary contribution to the extent it is able to obtain FFP for PP-GEMT payments as
permitted by federal law.
