Requires the Department to annually update the ambulance fee schedule rates on July 1 of each year. Makes other changes.

Adds purposes for which moneys may be disbursed from the Hospital Provider Fund, including (i) making payments to hospitals under other medical assistance programs administered by the Department and (ii) making transfers to the Healthcare Provider Relief Fund. Permits the Department to accelerate the payment schedule.
