States may give grants to health providers who treat many medically underserved patients. The state decides which patients count as underserved or special populations. States can't run this program through their Medicaid office or use Medicaid, Medicare, or TRICARE money for it.
A State* may award grants to health care providers who treat a high percentage, as determined by such State, of medically underserved populations or other special populations in such State.
A grant program established by a State under subsection (a) may not be established within a department, agency, or other entity of such State that administers the Medicaid program under title XIX of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1396 et seq.), and no Federal or State funds allocated to such Medicaid program, the Medicare program under title XVIII of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1395 et seq.), or the TRICARE program under chapter 55 of title 10 may be used to award grants or to pay administrative costs associated with a grant program established under subsection (a).
