CONCORD, N.H. (AP) — Legislation needed to implement a settlement with 25 New Hampshire hospitals over Medicaid rates and a tax on hospital revenues that was deemed unconstitutional passed the Legislature easily Wednesday.

The House voted 278-72 after a brief discussion to approve the deal, and the Senate did the same on a voice vote not long after. The legislation implements a settlement negotiated among Gov. Maggie Hassan, legislative leaders and the hospitals. St. Joseph Hospital in Nashua, which has sued over the tax, is the only hospital that didn’t sign onto the agreement.
