   6. (F) The county indigent care health realignment amount.
   7. (G) The imputed county low-income health amount.
   8. (H) Imputed gains from other payers.
   9. (I) The amount by which the public hospital health system county’s costs exceeded the cost containment limit for the fiscal year, expressed as a negative number, multiplied by 0.50.

2. (2) The following, incurred by the public hospital health system county for the fiscal year, not to exceed in total the cost containment limit, shall be subtracted from the sum in paragraph (1):

   1. (A) Medi-Cal costs.
   2. (B) Uninsured costs.
   3. (C) The lesser of the other entity intergovernmental transfer amount or the imputed other entity intergovernmental transfer amounts.
   4. (D) New mandatory other entity intergovernmental transfer amounts.
3. (3) The resulting amount determined in paragraph (2) shall be multiplied by 0.80, except that for the 2013–14 fiscal year the resulting amount determined in paragraph (2) shall be multiplied by 0.70.
4. (4) If the amount in paragraph (3) is a positive number, that amount, subject to paragraph (5), shall be redirected in accordance with Section 17612.1, except that for the 2013–14 fiscal year the amount to be redirected shall not exceed the amount determined for the county for the 2013–14 fiscal year under subdivision (c) of Section 17603, as that amount may have been reduced by the application of Section 17610.5.

5. (5) Notwithstanding any other law, the amount to be redirected as determined in paragraph (4) for any fiscal year shall not exceed the county indigent care health realignment amount for that fiscal year.

6. (6)

   1. (A) The redirected amount shall be applied until the later of the following:

      1. (i) June 30, 2023.

      2. (ii) The beginning of the fiscal year following a period of two consecutive fiscal years in which both of the following occur:

         1. (I) The total interim amount determined under subdivision (b) in May of the previous fiscal year is within 10 percent of the final, reconciled amount in subdivision (d).
         2. (II) The final, reconciled amounts under subdivision (d) are within 5 percent of each other.
   2. (B) After the redirected amount ceases as provided in subparagraph (A), a permanent redirected amount shall be established to be an amount determined by calculating the percentage that the redirected amount was in the last fiscal year of the operation of this article of the county’s health realignment amount of that same fiscal year, multiplied by the county’s health realignment amount of all subsequent years.

(c) The predetermined amounts or historical percentages described in subdivisions (i), (l), (m), (n), and (w) of Section 17612.2 shall each be established in accordance with the following procedure:

1. (1) By October 31, 2013, each public hospital health system county shall determine the amount or percentage described in the applicable subdivision, and shall provide this calculation to the department, supported by verifiable data and a description of how the determination was made.

3. (3) If no agreement between the parties has been reached by January 31, 2014, the department shall apply the county’s determination when making the interim calculations pursuant to subdivision (b), until a decision is issued pursuant to paragraph (6).
4. (4) If no agreement between the parties has been reached by January 31, 2014, the public hospital health system county shall submit a petition by February 28, 2014, to the County Health Care Funding Resolution Committee, established pursuant to Section 17600.60, to seek a decision regarding the historical percentage or amount to be applied in calculations under this section.
5. (5) The County Health Care Funding Resolution Committee shall hear and make a determination as to whether the county’s proposed percentage or amount complies with the requirements of this section taking into account the data and calculations of the county and any alternative data and calculations submitted by the department.
6. (6) The committee shall issue its final determination within 45 days of the petition. If the county chooses to contest the final determination, the final determination of the committee will be applied for purposes of any interim calculation under subdivision (b) until a final decision is issued pursuant to de novo administrative review pursuant to paragraph (2) of subdivision (d).

(d)

1. (1) The data for the final calculations under subdivision (a) for the fiscal year shall be submitted by public hospital health system counties within 12 months after the conclusion of each fiscal year as required in Section 17612.4. The data shall be the most recent and accurate data from the public hospital health system county’s books and records pertaining to the revenues paid or payable, and the costs incurred, for services provided in the subject fiscal year. After consulting with the county, the department shall make final calculations using the data submitted pursuant to this paragraph by December 15 of the following fiscal year, and shall provide its final determination to the county.
