Calculating Eligible Expenses and Lost Revenue: If a Reporting Entity experienced quarterly patient care revenue losses during some, but not all, of the quarters during the period of availability of funds, could the Provider Relief Fund and/or ARP Rural payments have been used to cover losses during those quarters only?

Yes, lost revenues were calculated for each quarter during the period of availability, as a standalone calculation. Provider Relief Fund and/or ARP Rural payments may be used to cover those quarters where patient care revenue losses occurred as long as those losses were attributable to coronavirus. The opportunity to apply Provider Relief Fund payments (excluding the Nursing Home Infection Control Distribution) and ARP Rural payments for lost revenues will be available up to June 30, 2023, the end of the quarter in which the COVID-19 Public Health Emergency ends.
