Each eligible provider must, as a condition of receipt of payment from one or more purchasing governmental units for services rendered, accept the approved rates as full payment and discharge of all obligations for the services rendered, subject only to appellate rights as set forth in M.G.L. 118E. There will be no duplication or supplementation of payment from sources other than those expressly recognized or anticipated in the computation of the rate.
