Official summary

Abstract published by the legislature (via Open States). Text as published by the legislature; reproduced verbatim.

Under current law, the department of human services (CDHS) was required to enter into an agreement with an outside entity no later than January 2, 2024, to develop a county administration of public and medical assistance programs funding model (funding model) to determine the amount of money necessary to fund the administration of public and medical assistance programs in each county. CDHS is required to enter into an agreement with an outside entity to annually update and modify the funding model. Before November 1 of each year, CDHS is required to submit the results of the funding model to the joint budget committee, the department of health care policy and financing, and the county departments of human or social services (county departments).     The act repeals the funding model and the requirement to annually update and submit the results of the funding model to the joint budget committee, the department of health care policy and financing, and county departments.     The act reduces the appropriations made to CDHS and the department of health care policy and financing in the annual general appropriation act for the 2026-27 state fiscal year.(Note: This summary applies to this bill as enacted.)
