State Commissioner of Health,
made by that subdivision for
general health services bears
to that subdivision's share of the
State approved program, pro-

tures do not exceed the total
amounts available under the appro-

subdivision appropriates and ex-
pends more than is provided herein
as its share of its estimated budget
for minimum health services, the
State Commissioner of Health is
authorized, subject to availability
of funds under this appropriation,
to match such additional expendi-
tures, provided that the aggregate
of State and Federal funds paid for
such additional expenditures shall
not exceed 20% of such additional
expenditures. The State Board of
Health and Mental Hygiene is au-
thorized to promulgate rules and
regulations for the implementation
and application of the formula out-
lined herein.
