Summary Russ Armistead, the CEO of UF Health Jacksonville,
discussed the history of the City’s funding for indigent care and its current
financial condition. Council Member Lumb stated that due to changes in state
law, the City’s only legal obligation to provide funding for indigent care is
$4 per capita or approximately $3.5 million.
A motion by Council Member Schellenberg to increase the annual payment
to UF Health by $5 million per year to $28.77 million died for lack of a
second. The committee discussed the
indigent care obligations of the other hospitals in the city. Council Member Joost suggested that a
partnership of the City and UF Health to have all employees and family
members covered by City health insurance utilize UF Health primary care and
hospital facilities would be a great benefit to the hospital’s financial
condition. Council Member Lumb
suggested that the mayor use his “bully pulpit” to convene a meeting of the
CEOs of all the hospitals in town and explain the need for all of them to
contribute financially to UF Health’s indigent care burden or face the
prospect of being flooded with indigent care cases if UF Health pulled out of
Jacksonville. AMEND/APPROVE
