Fiscal Detail and Notes
The bill includes a one-time General Fund appropriation to the Department of Health and Human Services of $500,000 in fiscal year 2018-19 for increased funding over current levels for the provision of assisted living services.

Any additional costs to the Department of Health and Human Services to conduct a review of possible ways to stabilize funding for affordable assisted living facilities that contract with the office of aging and disability services within the Department of Health and Human Services are expected to be minor and can be absorbed within existing budgeted resources.
