    This Act may be cited as the ``Healthcare Fiscal Accountability Act

SEC. 2. CONVERTING PPACA DIRECT FUNDING TO AUTHORIZATIONS OF 
              APPROPRIATIONS AND RESCINDING UNOBLIGATED PPACA DIRECT 
              FUNDING.

    (a) In General.--Notwithstanding any other provision of law, for 
each provision described in column 1 in the table specified in 
subsection (b), the following rules shall apply:
            (1) Direct appropriations.--
                    (A) Conversion to authorizations of 
                appropriations.--For each such provision that provides 
                for a direct appropriation of funds for fiscal year 
                2012 or a subsequent fiscal year and for which special 
                rule #1 or special rule #2 does not apply under column 
                3 of such table, such appropriation is deemed only to 
                be an authorization of appropriations and amounts are 
                available under such provision only pursuant to 
                appropriations made after the date of the enactment of 
                this Act.
                    (B) Rescission of unobligated appropriations.--Of 
                the funds available pursuant to a direct appropriation 
                under such provision for which special rule #1 or 
                special rule #2 does not apply under column 3 of such 
                table, the unobligated balance is rescinded.
            (2) Fund transfers.--
                    (A) Conversion to authorization of transfer subject 
                to appropriations.--For each such provision that 
                provides for a transfer of funds for fiscal year 2012 
                or a subsequent fiscal year, such transfer is deemed 
                only to be an authorization of such transfer in such 
                amounts as are provided in advance in appropriations 
                acts enacted after the date of the enactment of this 
                Act.
                    (B) Restoration of transferred funds.--Amounts 
                transferred under such provision which have not been 
                obligated as of the date of the enactment of this Act 
                shall be restored to the Trust Fund or other fund from 
                which they were transferred.
            (3) Special rules.--
                    (A) Special rule #1 for certain extensions of 
                appropriations beginning after fiscal year 2011.--For 
                each such provision for which column 3 of such table 
                specifies that special rule #1 applies, the amendment 
                (or amendments) made by the section in column 2 is 
                repealed and such provision is restored as if PPACA had 
                not been enacted.
                    (B) Special rule #2 for certain extensions of 
                appropriations beginning before fiscal year 2012.--For 
                each such provision for which column 3 of such table 
                specifies that special rule #2 applies--
                            (i) the amendment (or amendments) made by 
                        the section in column 2 is repealed and such 
                        provision is restored as if PPACA had not been 
                        enacted, except that such repeal shall not 
                        apply to fiscal year 2010 or fiscal year 2011; 
                        and
                            (ii) of the funds available pursuant to the 
                        operation of such amendment (or amendments) for 
                        fiscal year 2010 or fiscal year 2011, the
