Hospitals receiving funds from Department of Mental Health (DMH) via direct and/or indirect
contracts are required to complete an abbreviated Consolidated Fiscal Report (CFR) which
records with reasonable accuracy, discrete DMH costs.
The Institutional Cost Report (ICR) and the Medicaid Stepdown are not required to be submitted
to DMH by the hospitals.
The following procedures are to be used exclusively by hospitals in filling out Schedule DMH-2.
The CFR is to be completed by hospitals using this manual as a guide.
In calculating expected administrative and overhead expenses, use the most recent available
allocation percentages from the Medicaid stepdown derived from the last Institutional Cost
Report (ICR) submitted to the Office of Health Systems Management. Follow this procedure
unless there is reason to believe that there will be a change in the percentage that will be
allocated to Mental Hygiene programs.
If ICR stepdown percentages are not used, please so indicate and explain the methodology
used to calculate the percentages.
The logical integrity between the schedules in the CFR must be maintained as prescribed
throughout the manual.
Hospitals who received State Aid based on a line item expense reimbursement methodology will
continue to receive State Aid in this manner (based upon the procedures outlined above).
Hospitals who previously received State Aid based on approved Medicaid rates rather than on a
line item expense reimbursement methodology will continue to receive State Aid based upon
their approved Medicaid rates.
