[This section was reenacted without change by Laws, 1994, ch. 354, Sec. 4, effective from and after July 1, 1994. Since the text of the section as it appears in the parent volume is unaffected by the reenactment, it is not reprinted in this supplement, as directed by Sec. 7 of ch. 354.] Methods of determining levels of payment or reimbursement for services or for the type of facility charges eligible for payment or reimbursement pursuant to sections 83-9-37 through 83-9-43 shall be consistent with those for medical illnesses in general and shall take into consideration customary charges for those services.
