Relates to the appropriation to the Catastrophic Health Care Program for fiscal year 2021.

This is an FY 2021 supplemental appropriation bill for the Catastrophic Health Care Program, also known as the CAT Fund. It provides $6 million to cover the estimated claims costs that remain in FY 2021. For the first six months of the fiscal year, the CAT Board has approved and expended just over $7 million in claims. The CAT Board estimates spending about the same amount in the second half of the fiscal year. Any amount appropriated in the bill that is unexpended at the end of the fiscal year will remain in CAT Fund and will be available for claims in FY 2022.
