$220 billion state budget includes some key healthcare provisions
New York’s 2022-2023 budget includes $1.6 billion in capital funding; additional Medicaid support for financially distressed hospitals, nursing homes and other healthcare providers; telehealth payment parity; revisions to the Medicaid global cap; and supportive funding in several areas to bolster the healthcare worker pipeline. HANYS will continue to advocate for priorities not included in this budget and oppose damaging legislation over the remaining weeks of the legislative session.
