another fact that has not been brought out but it is important is the quality of cal pacific attract many of their patients from outside of san francisco also. we have heard a lot about the development agreement and the good things it will do within san francisco as it should, but it is important because there is this 30% who comes in, mostly private patients, bringing resident -- revenue in that we can use as san franciscans. they perceive the quality of care to be superior. unless we move forward with something like this, we risk the fact of having a loss of patients who could go elsewhere. it is important this move forward. i had a few comments and questions. maybe mr. rich could answer these. we have heard about the part of affordable care which involves care by cal pacific of 10,000 new metical lives that will be a product of health reform -- medical lives that will be a product of health reform. i assume there is another -- that would be the case from cal pacific to compensate if these cannot materialize as planned. >> yes, as colleen alluded to, there is a section in the devel

that includes some continuity of the medi-cal and safety net care pool revenues. some of what you are appropriating here today are one-time items, but those will be offset or partially offset by baseline growth in the revenues at the hospitals. supervisor chu: great. with regards to the $25 million, that is the surplus from general hospital revenues. can you speak to that? what would that come from? >> there are several categories. again, they are outlined nicely in the budget analyst report. but there are several categories of expenditure -- of revenue increases. the biggest single one is revenue from the safety net care pool, a pool of funds that is available to designate a public hospital to draw for their expenditures for low-income and uninsured individuals. that pot of money is allocated according to a formula agreed to buy the state and federal government. we are in the process since we are early in we aremedi-cal waiver, the agreement in that allocation, and we're learning as we go about what our share of that coal will be. we have increased our projection
