Explanation
(This amendment restores $85,000 each year in general fund amounts for the State Pharmaceutical Assistance Program, which was reduced in the Governor's Fiscal Year 2010 Reduction Plan and continued in the introduced budget for the 2010-12 biennium. The program provides insurance premium payments, coinsurance payments, and other out-of-pocket costs for individuals participating in the Virginia AIDS Drug Assistance Program with incomes between 135 percent and 300 percent of the federal poverty income guidelines and who are Medicare Part D beneficiaries. A companion amendment reduces funding in Item 132 to provide the general fund amounts for this restoration.)
