year, the assessment under this section shall be $200,000 until such date that
such hospital has completed the hospital's first twelve-month fiscal year. Upon
completing such first twelve-month fiscal year, such hospital's assessment
under this section shall be the amount equal to 1.83% of such hospital's net
operating revenue for such first completed twelve-month fiscal year.

other unit of local government to license for revenue or impose a tax or
assessment upon hospital providers or a tax or assessment measured by the
income or earnings of a hospital provider.
