Local Provider Participation Funds (LPPFs)

What is an LPPF?

A Local Provider Participation Fund (LPPF) ordinance allows a parish to levy a local hospital assessment payment on nongovernmental hospitals in the parish.  

Funds collected through the LPPF assessments are sent to the state through IGTs to support the non-federal share of increased Medicaid managed-care payments for eligible hospitals. This non- federal share receives a federal match.

Currently, 4 Louisiana parishes have adopted ordinances and resolutions establishing LPPFs to help contribute to the non-federal share. They range from Bossier to Webster.
