All monies in the long-term care system fund unexpended and unencumbered at the end of fiscal year 2007-2008 revert to the state general fund, subject to approval by the Arizona health care cost containment system administration.

The department shall report to the joint legislative budget committee by March 1 of each year on preliminary actuarial estimates of the capitation rate changes for the following fiscal year along with the reasons for the estimated changes.  For any actuarial estimates that include a range, the total range from minimum to maximum shall be not more than two per cent.  Before implementation of any changes in capitation rates for the long-term care program, the department of economic security shall report for review the expenditure plan to the joint legislative budget committee.  Before the department implements any changes in policy affecting the amount, sufficiency, duration and scope of health care services and who may provide services, the department shall prepare a fiscal impact analysis on the potential effects of this change on the following year's capitation rates.  If the fiscal analysis demonstrates that these changes will result in additional state costs of $500,000 or greater for a given fiscal year, the department shall submit the policy changes for review by the joint legislative budget committee.

Prior to the implementation of any developmentally disabled or long term care statewide provider rate increases not already specifically authorized by the legislature, court mandates or changes to federal law, the department shall submit a report for review by the joint legislative budget committee.  The report shall include, at a minimum, the estimated cost of the provider rate increase and the ongoing source of funding for the increase.

The amounts above include $6,998,700 from the state general fund and $11,624,900 from matching federal expenditure authority to raise rates of community service providers and independent service agreement providers contracting with the division of developmental disabilities.  This amount is estimated to be the equivalent of one hundred per cent of fiscal year 2007‑2008 market rates for all services on the published rate schedule.  It is the intent of the legislature that the division request the Arizona health care cost containment system administration to approve a capitation rate increase retroactive to July 1, 2007 to make provider rate increases effective July 1, 2007.  By July 1, 2007, the division shall obtain approval for a rate increase implementation proposal from AHCCCS.  By August 1, 2007, the division shall submit the implementation plan for review by the joint legislative budget committee.  The adjusted rates shall be implemented beginning with provider payments due for services performed in August 2007. Payment for retroactive reimbursement due for services provided in July 2007 shall be paid to providers no later than September 15, 2007.

The appropriated amount provides funding for a fiscal year 2007-2008 capitation rate increase of 4.0 per cent above fiscal year 2006-2007 excluding salary, benefits, and other statewide adjustments.  The department shall reallocate resources within its existing budget to pay for any capitation rate increases above 5.0 per cent excluding salary, benefits, and other statewide adjustments without supplemental funding.

The department may divide the appropriation based on the number and scope of approved applications into a number of grants that the department deems appropriate.  If a facility is awarded a grant, it must submit in writing to spend the grant on the program contained in its application or forfeit the grant and repay the funds to the department.  The department may require a grant awardee to report the uses of the award and to share data and best practices that have been developed by the facility.  If the facility transfers ownership, the department shall award the grant to the licensee at the time of the award.  If the facility ceases operation before the quality improvement grant distribution date it is not eligible for a quality improvement grant.  Up to ten per cent of the monies appropriated to the department for quality improvement grants may be used by the department for administrative purposes.  Monies appropriated for nursing care institution quality improvement grants shall not be used for any other expenses of the department of health services without review of the joint legislative budget committee.  Any transfer to or from the amounts appropriated for nursing care institution quality improvement grants shall require prior review by the joint legislative budget committee.

The department of public safety shall report quarterly to the joint legislative budget committee on sworn personnel staffing levels.  The report shall identify the number of filled and appropriated positions by job classification and, if applicable, the program to which the position is assigned.

Of the $2,672,900 for sworn officer salary adjustments, $2,000,000 from the general fund shall be used to provide salary adjustments for the officer I, officer II, and officer III classifications.  The distribution of the $672,900 from the parity compensation fund shall be determined by the department.  DPS shall provide a report indicating how the monies were allocated to the joint legislative budget committee by September 30, 2007.  The report should include a salary comparison, by classification, based on both the five highest paying law enforcement agencies in the state and those that employ in excess of one hundred sworn positions.

Any monies remaining in the department of public safety joint account on June 30, 2008 shall revert to the funds from which they were appropriated. The reverted monies shall be returned in direct proportion to the amounts appropriated.
