AN ACT Relating to the tax on intermediate care facilities for the mentally retarded; amending RCW 82.65A.030; and declaring an emergency.
BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF WASHINGTON:
Sec. 1. RCW 82.65A.030 and 1992 c 80 s 3 are each amended to read as follows:
In addition to any other tax, a tax is imposed
on every intermediate care facility for the mentally retarded for the act or
privilege of engaging in business within this state. The tax is equal to the
gross income attributable to services for the mentally retarded, multiplied by
the rate of ((fifteen)) six percent.
NEW SECTION. Sec. 2. This act is necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health, or safety, or support of the state government and its existing public institutions, and shall take effect on such date as shall be certified by the secretary of social and health services by which states must modify health care related taxes to prevent the loss of federal medicaid participation in the cost of the tax.
