Explanation

(This amendment supplants $1.1 million the second year from the general fund with funding from the Provider Coverage Assessment fund for the Department of Social Services' administrative costs related to the Section 1115 Medicaid waiver that is part of the coverage expansion pursuant to the Affordable Care Act. The introduced budget funded the administrative costs of the waiver from the general fund. This action funds it from revenue from the hospital provider assessment. An amendment to language in Part 3 clarifies that the Provider Coverage Assessment is responsible for the costs of administering the provisions of the Section 1115 Waiver.)
