The bill includes
a one-time General Fund appropriation to the Department of Health and Human
Services of $29,509 in fiscal year 2019-20 for required technology changes to
add a presumptive eligibility group when eligibility is determined by a
provider other than a hospital. A one-time Other Special Revenue Funds
allocation is also included for the federal match. |
|
Any additional
costs to the Department of Health and Human Services and the Department of

be minor and can be absorbed within existing budgeted resources. |
