To the extent that the application of
subparagraph (A) would result in the sum
of the proportions of the allotments for all

Secretary shall establish a maximum per-
centage increase in such proportions for
all subsection (b) States for the fiscal year
in a manner so that such sum equals 1.0.
(ii) Allocation of surplus through pro rata
increase
To the extent that the application of
subparagraph (A) would result in the sum

the proportions of such allotments (as
computed before the application of floors
under clauses (i), (ii), and (iii) of subpara-
graph (A)) for all subsection (b) States
shall be increased in a pro rata manner
(but not to exceed the ceiling established
under subparagraph (A)(iv)) so that (after
the application of such floors and ceiling)

TITLE 42—THE PUBLIC HEALTH AND WELFARE
§ 1397dd
(B) Determination of redistributed amounts
if insufficient amounts available
(i) Proration rule
Subject to clause (ii), if the amounts
available for redistribution under para-
graph (1) for a fiscal year are less than the
total amounts of the estimated shortfalls
determined for the year under subpara-
graph (A), the amount to be redistributed
under such paragraph for each shortfall
State shall be reduced proportionally.
(ii) Special rule for first half of fiscal year
2018
(I) In general
For each month beginning during the
period beginning on October 1, 2017, and
ending March 31, 2018, subject to the suc-
ceeding subclauses of this clause, the
Secretary
shall
redistribute
any
amounts
available
for
redistribution
under paragraph (1) for fiscal year 2018,
to each State that is an emergency
shortfall State (as defined in subclause
(II)) for the month such amount as the
Secretary determines will eliminate the
estimated shortfall described in sub-
clause (II) for such State for the month
(as may be adjusted under subparagraph
(C)) before the Secretary may redis-
tribute such amounts to any shortfall
State that is not an emergency shortfall
State. In the case of any amounts redis-
tributed under this subclause to a State
that is not an emergency shortfall State,
such amounts shall be determined in ac-
cordance with clause (i).
(II) Emergency shortfall State defined
For purposes of this clause, the term
‘‘emergency
shortfall
State’’
means,
with respect to a month beginning dur-
ing the period beginning October 1, 2017,
and ending March 31, 2018, a shortfall
State for which the Secretary estimates,
in accordance with subparagraph (A) (un-
less otherwise specified in this sub-
clause) and on a monthly basis using the
most recent data available to the Sec-
retary as of such month, that the pro-
jected expenditures under the State
child health plan and under section
1397ee(g) of this title (calculated as if the
reference under section 1397ee(g)(4)(A) of
this title, as in effect on the day before
January 22, 2018, to ‘‘2017’’ were a ref-
erence to ‘‘2018’’ and insofar as the allot-
ments are available to the State under
this subsection or subsection (e) or (m))
for such month will exceed the sum of
the amounts described in clauses (i)
through (iii) of subparagraph (A) for such
month, including after application of
any amount redistributed under para-
graph (1) for a previous month for fiscal
year 2018 in accordance with this clause,
to such State. A shortfall State may be
an emergency shortfall State under the
previous sentence without regard to
whether any amounts were redistributed
to such State under paragraph (1) for a
previous month in fiscal year 2018.
(III) Funds redistributed in the order in
which States realize funding short-
falls
The Secretary shall redistribute the
amounts
available
for
redistribution
under paragraph (1) to emergency short-
fall States described in subclause (II) in
the order in which such States realize
monthly funding shortfalls under this
subchapter for fiscal year 2018. The Sec-
retary shall only make redistributions
under this clause to the extent that such
amounts are available for such redis-
tributions.
(IV) Proration rule
If the amounts available for redistribu-
tion under paragraph (1) for a month
during the period described in subclause
(I) are less than the total amounts of the
estimated shortfalls determined for the
month for emergency shortfall States
described in subclause (II), the amount
computed under subclause (I) for each
emergency shortfall State shall be re-
duced proportionally.
(V) Unobligated redistributed funds
The Secretary shall withhold any
funds redistributed under paragraph (1)
for fiscal year 2018 before January 1, 2018,
but which have not been obligated for
amounts expended by a State as of that
date, and shall redistribute such funds in
accordance
with
the
preceding
sub-
clauses of this clause.
(VI) Application of qualifying State op-
tion
During the period described in sub-
clause (I), section 1397ee(g)(4) of this
title, as in effect on the day before Janu-
ary 22, 2018, shall apply to a qualifying
State (as defined in section 1397ee(g)(2)
of
this
title)
as
if
under
section
1397ee(g)(4) of this title, as so in effect—
(aa) the reference to ‘‘2017’’ were a
reference to ‘‘2018’’; and
(bb) the reference to ‘‘under sub-
sections (e) and (m) of such section’’
were a reference to ‘‘under subsections
(e), (f), and (m) of such section’’.
(C) Retrospective adjustment
The Secretary may adjust the estimates
and determinations made under paragraph
(1) and this paragraph with respect to a fis-
cal year as necessary on the basis of the
amounts reported by States not later than
November 30 of the succeeding fiscal year, as
approved by the Secretary.
(D) Rule of construction
Nothing in this paragraph may be con-
strued as preventing a commonwealth or
territory described in subsection (c)(3) from
being treated as a shortfall State or an
emergency shortfall State.

TITLE 42—THE PUBLIC HEALTH AND WELFARE
§ 1397dd
(A) has submitted to the Secretary, and
has approved by the Secretary, a State plan
amendment or waiver request relating to an
expansion of eligibility for children or bene-
fits under this subchapter that becomes ef-
fective for a fiscal year (beginning with fis-

by the projected expenditures for such year
by the State, commonwealth, or territory
under the State child health plan (or a waiv-
er of such plan) for vaccines described in sec-
tion 1396d(a)(4)(E) of this title (and the ad-

(ii) for a subsequent fiscal year (or semi-
annual period occurring in a fiscal year) is
equal to the target average number of
child enrollees for the State for the pre-
vious fiscal year increased by the child
population growth factor described in sub-
section (m)(6)(B) for the State for the prior
fiscal year.
(C) Projected per capita expenditures
For purposes of subparagraph (A)(ii), the
projected per capita expenditures under a
State child health plan—
(i) for fiscal year 2009 is equal to the av-
erage per capita expenditures (including
both State and Federal financial participa-
tion) under such plan for the targeted low-
income children counted in the average
monthly caseload for purposes of this
paragraph during fiscal year 2008, in-
creased by the annual percentage increase
in the projected per capita amount of Na-
tional Health Expenditures (as estimated
by the Secretary) for 2009; or
(ii) for a subsequent fiscal year (or semi-
annual period occurring in a fiscal year) is
equal to the projected per capita expendi-
tures under such plan for the previous fis-
cal year (as determined under clause (i) or
this clause) increased by the annual per-
centage increase in the projected per cap-
ita amount of National Health Expendi-
tures (as estimated by the Secretary) for
the year in which such subsequent fiscal
year ends.
(D) Proration rule
If the amounts available for payment from
the Fund for a fiscal year or period are less
than the total amount of payments deter-
mined under subparagraph (A) for the fiscal
year or period, the amount to be paid under
such subparagraph to each eligible State
shall be reduced proportionally.
(E) Timely payment; reconciliation
Payment under this paragraph for a fiscal
year or period shall be made before the end
of the fiscal year or period based upon the
most recent data for expenditures and en-
rollment and the provisions of subsection (e)
of section 1397ee of this title shall apply to
payments under this subsection in the same
manner as they apply to payments under
such section.
(F) Continued reporting
For purposes of this paragraph and sub-
section (f), the State shall submit to the
Secretary the State’s projected Federal ex-
penditures, even if the amount of such ex-
penditures exceeds the total amount of al-
lotments available to the State in such fis-
cal year or period.
(G) Application to commonwealths and terri-
tories
No payment shall be made under this para-
graph to a commonwealth or territory de-
scribed in subsection (c)(3) until such time
as the Secretary determines that there are
in effect methods, satisfactory to the Sec-
retary, for the collection and reporting of re-
liable data regarding the enrollment of chil-
dren described in subparagraphs (A) and (B)
in order to accurately determine the com-
monwealth’s or territory’s eligibility for,
and amount of payment, under this para-
graph.
