                the FMAP determined for the State for such quarter 
                without regard to this paragraph, this paragraph shall 
                not apply to such State.
            (2) General fmap adjustment.--The general FMAP adjustment 
        shall be equal to the following:

                (D), the unemployment FMAP adjustment shall be equal to 
                the increase in the State's FMAP that would have 
                applied to the State under section 5001(c) of ARRA 
                (assuming that such section applied) for such fiscal 
                quarter minus the applicable reduction amount (as

                        consecutive-month period beginning with 
                        December 2012, or, if it results in a higher

    (b) Scope of Application.--The adjustments in the FMAP for a State

        (42 U.S.C. 1397ee(b)); or
            (5) any payments under title XIX of such Act that are 
        attributable to expenditures for medical assistance provided to 
        individuals made eligible under a State plan under title XIX of 
        the Social Security Act (including under any waiver under such 
        title or under section 1115 of such Act (42 U.S.C. 1315))

        higher than the income standards (as so expressed) for such 
        eligibility as in effect on July 1, 2008, (including as such 
        standards were proposed to be in effect under a State law 
        enacted but not effective as of such date or a State plan

                waiver under such title or under section 1115 of such 
                Act (42 U.S.C. 1315)) are more restrictive than the 
                eligibility standards, methodologies, or procedures, 
                respectively, under such plan (or waiver) as in effect 
                on July 1, 2008.
                    (B) State reinstatement of eligibility permitted.--
                Subject to subparagraph (C), a State that has

                procedures under its State plan under title XIX of the 
                Social Security Act (including any waiver under such 
                title or under section 1115 of such Act (42 U.S.C. 
                1315)) after July 1, 2008, is no longer ineligible

                that are no more restrictive than the eligibility 
                standards, methodologies, or procedures, respectively, 
                under such plan (or waiver) as in effect on July 1, 
                2008.
                    (C) Special rules.--A State shall not be ineligible 
                under subparagraph (A)--
                            (i) for the fiscal quarters before October 
                        1, 2011, on the basis of a restriction that was 
                        applied after July 1, 2008, and before the date 
                        of the enactment of this Act, if the State 
                        prior to October 1, 2011, has reinstated 
                        eligibility standards, methodologies, or 
                        procedures that are no more restrictive than 
                        the eligibility standards, methodologies, or 
                        procedures, respectively, under such plan (or

                            (ii) on the basis of a restriction that was 
                        directed to be made under State law as in 
                        effect on July 1, 2008, and would have been in 
                        effect as of such date, but for a delay in the 
                        effective date of a waiver under section 1115 
                        of such Act with respect to such restriction.

                        for such days during any period in which that 
                        State has failed to pay claims in accordance 
                        with such section as applied under title XIX of 
                        such Act.
                            (ii) Reporting requirement.--Each State 
                        shall report to the Secretary, on a quarterly 
                        basis, its compliance with the requirements of 
                        clause (i) as such requirements pertain to

                        waive the application of clause (i) to a State, 
                        or the reporting requirement imposed under 
                        clause (ii), during any period in which there 
                        are exigent circumstances, including natural 
                        disasters, that prevent the timely processing

                            (iv) Application to claims.--Clauses (i)

                        this Act.
                    (B) Application to nursing facilities and 
                hospitals.--The provisions of subparagraph (A) shall 
                apply with respect to a nursing facility or hospital, 
                insofar as it is paid under title XIX of the Social 
                Security Act on the basis of submission of claims, in 
                the same or similar manner (but within the same 
                timeframe) as such provisions apply to practitioners 
                described in such subparagraph.
            (3) State's application toward rainy day fund.--A State is 
        not eligible for an increase in its FMAP under paragraphs (2)

            (5) Limitation of fmap to 100 percent.--In no case shall an

        percentage of the non-Federal share of such expenditures, or a 
        greater percentage of the non-Federal share of payments under
