(f) Notwithstanding any provision of state or local law, ordinance or resolution to the contrary, if the commissioner of health timely certifies to the commissioner that a county which imposes sales and compensating use taxes pursuant to the authority of section twelve hundred ten, twelve hundred ten-A, twelve hundred ten-B or twelve hundred ten-C of this article properly exercised its option by September thirtieth, two thousand seven, pursuant to section two of the chapter of the laws of two thousand five which added this subdivision, that such county be reimbursed for medical assistance expenditures as provided in such section two of such chapter, then the commissioner shall calculate the Medicaid amount of each such county. The amount due each month to each such county provided for in subdivision (c) of this section shall be reduced by the monthly Medicaid amount; and such monthly Medicaid amount of each such county shall instead be paid into the general fund of the state treasury to the credit of the state purposes account therein. The calculation of each such county's Medicaid amount and monthly Medicaid amounts and the procedures governing the payment of such amounts shall be as follows:
- (1) The commissioner of health shall furnish the commissioner with the amount of every county's "two thousand six-two thousand seven fiscal year social services district expenditure cap amount," as provided in paragraph (e) of section one of a chapter of the laws of two thousand five which added this subdivision, as soon as practicable but no later than April first, two thousand seven.
(2) The commissioner shall calculate the "Medicaid factor" for every county as follows and shall notify each county's chief fiscal officer of the results of such calculation by April thirtieth, two thousand seven, to help each county determine whether to exercise such option:
- (A) for a county in which no city exercises any prior right to impose sales or compensating use taxes authorized by section twelve hundred ten of this article, first, divide the total amount of sales and compensating use tax distributions to such county during state fiscal year two thousand six-two thousand seven by the county's general rate of such taxes during such period, and then divide the county's "two thousand six-two thousand seven fiscal year social services district expenditure cap amount" by the quotient of the first division;
- (B) for a county in which one or more cities exercise any prior right to impose sales or compensating use taxes authorized by section twelve hundred ten of this article and the combined rate of the county's and city's taxes in each such city equals the general rate of the county's taxes on similar transactions in the area of the county outside such city or cities, first, add the total amounts of sales and compensating use tax distributions to such county and to each such city during state fiscal year two thousand six-two thousand seven and divide such sum by the county's general rate of such taxes during such period, and then divide the county's "two thousand six-two thousand seven fiscal year social services district expenditure cap amount" by the quotient of the first division; and
- (C) for a county in which one or more cities exercise any prior right to impose sales or compensating use taxes authorized by section twelve hundred ten of this article and the combined rate of the county's and city's taxes in any such city does not equal the general rate of the county's taxes on similar transactions in the area of the county outside such city or cities:
- (i) for each such city, add the total amount of sales and compensating use tax distributions to such city during state fiscal year two thousand six-two thousand seven and divide such sum by the city's effective general rate of such taxes during such period, then multiply such quotient by the amount by which the city's rate forced a reduction in the county's rate of such taxes in such city during such period, and then
- (ii) add the amount derived in clause (i) of this subparagraph for each such city to the total amount of sales and compensating use tax distributions to such county during state fiscal year two thousand six-two thousand seven;
- (iii) divide the total of the addition in clause (ii) of this subparagraph by the county's general rate of such taxes during such period; and
- (iv) divide the county's "two thousand six-two thousand seven fiscal year social services district expenditure cap amount" by the quotient of the division in clause (iii) of this subparagraph.
- (D) The commissioner shall consider any change in a county's or city's general rate of sales and compensating use taxes which takes effect during state fiscal year two thousand six-two thousand seven and the number of months such rates are in effect during such state fiscal year in order to perform accurately the calculations provided for in this paragraph.
- (3) By the twelfth day of each month, commencing in January, two thousand eight, the commissioner shall calculate the "monthly Medicaid amount" of each such county which has made the election described in the opening paragraph of this subdivision and certify such amounts to the comptroller. The comptroller shall reduce the amount due each month to each such county provided for in subdivision (c) of this section by such monthly Medicaid amount; and the comptroller shall instead each month pay the monthly Medicaid amount of each such county into the general fund of the state treasury to the credit of the state purposes account therein, provided, however, that the comptroller, subject to the limitations provided in paragraphs five and six of this subdivision, shall each month collect the amount of Nassau county's reduction from amounts payable to such county by the Nassau county interim finance authority while such authority exists.
(4) "Monthly Medicaid amount" shall mean the result of the following calculations:
- (A) for a county described in subparagraph (A) of paragraph two of this subdivision, first, the amount of the comptroller's payment due such a county in the immediately preceding month, as described in subdivision (c) of this section and as described in sections twelve hundred ten-A, twelve hundred ten-B and twelve hundred ten-C of this article, but without regard to whether the comptroller is to pay all or a portion of such amount to another entity described in subdivision (c) of this section and without regard to the revenue disposition provisions of such section twelve hundred ten-A, twelve hundred ten-B or twelve hundred ten-C, and considered without regard to any Medicaid amount, shall be divided by the county's general rate of sales and compensating use taxes in such month; and the quotient of that division shall be multiplied by the Medicaid factor calculated as provided in subparagraph (A) of paragraph two of this subdivision.
- (B) for a county described in subparagraph (B) of paragraph two of this subdivision, first, add the amount of the comptroller's payment due any city in such a county in the immediately preceding month, as described in subdivision (c) of this section to the amount of the comptroller's payment due such a county in the immediately preceding month, as described in subdivision (c) of this section and as described in sections twelve hundred ten-A, twelve hundred ten-B and twelve hundred ten-C of this article, but without regard to whether the comptroller is to pay all or a portion of such amount to another entity described in subdivision (c) of this section and without regard to the revenue disposition provisions of such section twelve hundred ten-A, twelve hundred ten-B or twelve hundred ten-C, and considered without regard to any Medicaid amount, then divide the total of such amounts by the county's general rate of sales and compensating use taxes in such month; and the quotient of that division shall be multiplied by the Medicaid factor calculated as provided in subparagraph (B) of paragraph two of this subdivision.
- (C) For a county described in subparagraph (C) of paragraph two of this subdivision:
- (i) with respect to each such city described in subparagraph (C), divide the amount of the comptroller's payment due each such city in the immediately preceding month, as described in subdivision (c) of this section, by the effective general rate of such city's taxes during such month and multiply such quotient by the amount by which the city's rate forced a reduction in the county's rate of such taxes in such city during such month;
- (ii) add the amount or amounts derived in clause (i) of this subparagraph to the amount of the comptroller's payment due such county in the immediately preceding month, as described in subdivision (c) of this section and as described in sections twelve hundred ten-A, twelve hundred ten-B and twelve hundred ten-C of this article, but without regard to whether the comptroller is to pay all or a portion of such amount to another entity described in subdivision (c) of this section and without regard to the revenue disposition provisions of such section twelve hundred ten-A, twelve hundred ten-B or twelve hundred ten-C, and considered without regard to any Medicaid amount; and
- (iii) divide the total of the addition in clause (ii) of this subparagraph by the county's general rate of such taxes during such month, and the quotient of that division shall be multiplied by the Medicaid factor calculated as provided in subparagraph (C) of paragraph two of this subdivision.
- (5) If for any reason a county's monthly Medicaid amount is greater than the amount of the comptroller's net payment to the county for that month under subdivision (c) of this section and under sections twelve hundred ten-A, twelve hundred ten-B and twelve hundred ten-C of this article, after the comptroller has made any payments to other entities required by subdivision (c) of this section or by any other law and after any payment, deposit, appropriation, transfer or expenditure required or authorized by such section twelve hundred ten-A, twelve hundred ten-B or twelve hundred ten-C, the comptroller shall, at the same time that the comptroller makes the payment and reduction described in paragraph three of this subdivision, bill such county an amount equal to the difference and such county shall pay in full the amount of such bill to the comptroller by the twenty-fifth day of such month. Such county shall use any funds available to it to pay such bill. The comptroller shall deposit any such amounts received into the general fund of the state treasury to the credit of the state purposes account therein.
- (6) If a county does not remit the required monies or pay in full a bill described in paragraph five of this subdivision by the twenty-fifth day of the month in accordance with paragraph five of this subdivision, the comptroller shall, as soon as any other moneys payable to the county are available, either deduct any amount not paid from the amount of the next payment or payments due such county pursuant to subdivision (c) of this section until such amount not paid has been recovered or, in the alternative and at the comptroller's discretion, deduct any amount not paid from the amount of any other moneys payable to such county from the comptroller and not subject to any lien or pledge for the benefit of bondholders of the Nassau county interim finance authority or of any public benefit corporation, as defined in section sixty-six of the general construction law, created by interstate compact or at least half of whose members are appointed by the governor, until such amount not paid has been recovered. The comptroller shall deposit any amounts so deducted and recovered into the general fund of the state treasury to the credit of the state purposes account therein.
- (7) This subdivision shall apply to payments required in respect of a county to be made on January twelfth, two thousand eight, and thereafter.
- (8) Nothing in this subdivision shall be construed to relieve a county of any obligation or commitment to distribute and pay or allocate net collections pursuant to this part, regardless whether such obligation or commitment arises before or after the date this subdivision shall have taken effect, or to preclude a city in a county from exercising its prior rights under section twelve hundred twenty-four of this article. To the extent that a county's net collections have been diminished below a level sufficient to meet any such obligation or commitment as a result of the reductions or bills provided for in this subdivision, such county shall hereby be authorized to use any other funds available to it to meet such obligation or commitment, notwithstanding any law to the contrary.
- (9) If a county adopts or amends a local law, ordinance or resolution to repeal its sales and compensating use taxes, then, effective on the first day of the first month on which such repeal takes effect, such county's resolution electing to be reimbursed for certain medical assistance expenditures pursuant to section two of the chapter of the laws of two thousand five which added this subdivision shall also be repealed automatically as of such date; and the commissioner shall notify the commissioner of health of such county's repeal of such taxes. In that event, as of such date, such county shall be treated as if it had never made such election for purposes of such expenditures and such commissioner of health shall thenceforth compute the amount due monthly from such county for such expenditures pursuant to section one of the chapter of the laws of two thousand five which added this subdivision.
