Chapter 7. Health Facility Financing
5-1.2-7-7. Power to Issue Bonds; Proceeds; Use

Sec. 7. (a) The authority may issue, sell, and deliver its bonds, in accordance with IC 5-1.2-4 and this chapter, for the purpose of paying for or making loans to participating providers for the financing, reimbursing, or refinancing of all or any part of the cost of health facility property, to finance the acquisition of health facility property for lease or sale to participating providers, and any other purposes authorized by this chapter.
(b) The authority may provide for the issuance of bonds of the authority for the purpose of refunding any bonds of the authority then outstanding, including the payment of any redemption premium on these bonds and any interest accrued or to accrue to the earliest or any subsequent date of redemption, purchase or maturity of these bonds, and, if considered advisable by the authority, for the additional purpose of paying all or any part of the cost of health facility property.
(c) The proceeds of any bonds issued for the purpose of refunding outstanding bonds may, in the discretion of the authority, be applied to the purchase or retirement at maturity or redemption of the outstanding bonds either on their earliest or any subsequent redemption date or upon the purchase or at the maturity of the bonds and may, pending such an application, be placed in escrow to be applied to the purchase or retirement at maturity or redemption on the date as may be determined by the authority. Subject to the provisions of any trust indenture to the contrary, any of the escrowed proceeds, pending such a use, may be invested and reinvested in obligations as are determined by the authority to assure the prompt payment of the principal and interest and redemption premium, if any, on the outstanding bonds to be so refunded. The interest, income, and profits, if any, earned or realized on such an investment may also be applied to the payment of the outstanding bonds to be so refunded. Only after the terms of the escrow have been fully satisfied and carried out, any balance of the proceeds and interest, income, and profits, if any, earned or realized on the investments shall be returned to the authority or the participating providers for use by them in any lawful manner. All the bonds are subject to this chapter in the same manner and to the same extent as other bonds issued under this chapter.
(d) The proceeds of the bonds (other than refunding bonds) of each issue shall be used for the payment of all or part of the cost of, or for the making of a loan in the amount of all or part of the cost of, the health facility property for which the bonds have been authorized and, at the option of the authority, for the deposit to a reserve fund or reserve funds for the bonds. However, the authority may be paid, out of money from the proceeds of the sale and delivery of its bonds issued in accordance with this chapter, all of the authority's out-of-pocket expenses and costs in connection with the issuance, sale, and delivery of the bonds, and the costs of obtaining insurance, guarantees, and letters of credit securing payment of the bonds and the lease and the loan and installment purchase payments, plus an amount equal to the compensation paid to any employees of the authority for the time those employees have spent on activities relating to the issuance, sale, and delivery of the bonds. Bond proceeds shall be disbursed in the manner and under the restrictions determined by the authority.
