   12    with the approval of the director  of  the
   13    budget,  may  reduce  a  district's  block
   14    grant allocation by  the  state  share  of
   15    disallowances  or  sanctions taken against
   16    the  district  pursuant  to   the   social

   18  Notwithstanding  any other provision of law,
   19    the state shall  not  be  responsible  for
   20    reimbursing a social services district and
   21    a district shall not seek state reimburse-
   22    ment  for  any portion of any state disal-
   23    lowance  or  sanction  taken  against  the
   24    social  services  district, or any federal
   25    disallowance attributable to final federal
   26    agency decisions or to settlement made, on
   27    or after July 1, 1995, when such disallow-
   28    ance or sanction results from the  failure
   29    of  the social services district to comply
   30    with  federal   or   state   requirements,
   31    including,  but not limited to, failure to
   32    document eligibility for federal or  state
   33    funds in the case record; provided, howev-
   34    er,  if  the  office  determines  that any
   35    federal disallowance for services provided
   36    between January 1, 1999 and May  31,  1999
   37    results  solely from the late enactment of
   38    the  state  legislation  implementing  the
   39    federal  adoption  and  safe families act,
   40    the state shall be solely responsible  for
   41    the  full  amount  of  the disallowance or
   42    sanction; provided, further, however, this
   43    provision shall be deemed  to  apply  both
   44    prospectively and retroactively regardless
   45    of whether such sanctions or disallowances
   46    are  for  services provided or claims made
   47    prior to or after April 1, 2015.

    1    techniques shall be passed  along  by  the
    2    state  to  any  and  all  social  services
    3    districts that the office of children  and
    4    family  services  has  determined have not
    5    complied with the title  IV-E  eligibility
    6    requirements  or have not taken the neces-
    7    sary actions  to  ensure  compliance  with
    8    such   requirements   including,  but  not
    9    limited to, failing to: assess  and  fully
   10    document all the criteria and have readily
   11    available  all  the necessary documents to
   12    establish and continue title  IV-E  eligi-

   15    claim  title  IV-E  funding only for cases
   16    that meet all of the title IV-E  eligibil-
   17    ity  criteria;  and  fully  implement  the
   18    social  services  payment  system  on   or
   19    before  April  1,  2005 for all direct and
   20    voluntary agency foster care services.
   21  Notwithstanding any law to the contrary, the
   22    office of  children  and  family  services
   23    shall  impose on social services districts
   24    any federal  disallowance  issued  against
   25    the  state  as a result of a federal title
   26    IV-E secondary eligibility review  regard-
   27    less  of  the  date  the children may have
   28    entered foster care, the date  the  eligi-
   29    bility  or payment errors occurred, or the
   30    filing date  of  any  federal  claims  for
   31    reimbursement; provided, however, that the
   32    state  shall be responsible for the disal-
   33    lowed costs and  expenditures  related  to
   34    the  placement  of  children in a facility
   35    operated by the  office  of  children  and
   36    family services, which shall be determined
   37    in the same manner as the disallowed costs
   38    and   expenditures   for  social  services
   39    districts other than the city of New York.
   40    In order to reimburse the federal  govern-
   41    ment  for the full amount of any disallow-
   42    ance imposed on the state by  the  federal
   43    administration  for  children and families
   44    within the timeframes necessary  to  avoid
   45    any  potential  interest  payments on such
   46    amount, the office of children and  family
   47    services   is  authorized  to  immediately
   48    offset  funds  otherwise   due   to   each
   49    district for a pro rata share of the total
   50    disallowed  costs  based on the percentage
   51    of applicable federal  title  IV-E  claims
                                          268                        20001-02-5

    1    made  by  that  district  for the relevant
    2    time  period  as  compared  to  the  total
    3    applicable  statewide  title  IV-E claims.
    4    The  amount  of  the  offset  against each
    5    district will be adjusted,  if  necessary,
    6    upon  completion of the disallowance allo-
    7    cation process. The  final  allocation  of
    8    the  amount  of  any  federal disallowance
    9    resulting  from  a  title  IV-E  secondary
   10    eligibility   review  shall  be  allocated
   11    among the districts so that each  district
   12    shall   be   responsible  for  the  amount
   13    attributable to  each  of  the  district's
   14    children  or  cases that are determined by
   15    the federal review to be unallowable. Each
   16    district shall also be responsible  for  a
   17    portion of the federal extrapolated disal-
   18    lowance amount based on the relative error
   19    rate  for  the  district.  The city of New
   20    York's error rate will  be  based  on  the
   21    federal sample and federal statistics. For
   22    all  social  services districts other than
   23    the city of New York, the error rate  will
   24    be  based  on  a  review  conducted by the
   25    district of a sample  of  children  and/or
   26    cases determined by the office of children
   27    and  family  services and a re-review of a
   28    sub-sample by the office of those children
   29    and/or cases determined by the office. The
   30    office of  children  and  family  services
   31    will   determine  what  is  reasonable  in
   32    establishing the size of  the  sample  and
   33    sub-sample  for  each district. The office
   34    of  children  and  family  services  shall
   35    notify  each  social  services district of
   36    the sample of children and/or  cases  from
   37    the  federal  audit period that the social
   38    services district must review.  Any  child
   39    or  case from the social services district
   40    that was included in  the  federal  sample
   41    will  automatically  be  included  in  the
   42    social services district's  review  sample
   43    and  the determination made at the federal
   44    review regarding that child or  case  will
   45    govern  for  the  purposes  of  the social
   46    services  district's  review.  The  social
   47    services district must complete and submit
   48    the results of its review to the office of
   49    children  and  family  services  within 60
   50    days of receipt of the sample.  The  error
   51    rate for the district will be based on the
                                          269                        20001-02-5

    1    findings  of the district's review and the
    2    office of children  and  family  services'
    3    re-review.  If  a social services district
    4    does  not  complete  its  review within 60
    5    days of  receiving  the  sample  from  the
    6    office  of  children  and family services,
    7    the office of children and family services
    8    shall assign an error rate to  the  social
    9    services  district  based  on the relative
   10    percentage of  the  district's  applicable
   11    title  IV-E claims for the relevant period
   12    as compared to applicable statewide  title
   13    IV-E  claims  for  that  period  and other
   14    circumstances that the office of  children
   15    and  family services may consider in order
   16    to allocate 100  percent  of  the  federal
   17    disallowance.  The  office of children and
   18    family services shall  apply  each  social
   19    services  district's  error  rate  to  the
   20    total amount of the district's  applicable
   21    title  IV-E  claims  including  associated
   22    administrative  expenses.  The   resulting
   23    dollar  amounts  for  all  of  the  social
   24    services  districts  will  be  summed   to
   25    derive  the  total  amount  of  title IV-E
   26    claims deemed to be in error statewide. To
   27    establish a  disallowance  percentage  for
   28    each  social services district, the amount
   29    of the district's title IV-E claims deemed
   30    to be in error  will  be  divided  by  the
   31    amount  of  statewide  title  IV-E  claims
   32    deemed  to  be  in  error.  The  resulting
   33    disallowance  percentage for each district
   34    will be applied to the entire  title  IV-E
   35    extrapolated  disallowance  calculated  by
   36    the federal review to determine the amount
   37    of the extrapolated disallowance for which
   38    the district is responsible. Each district
   39    will be credited for  the  amount  already
   40    disallowed  for any individual children or
   41    cases found to  be  in  error  during  the
   42    federal   review.   The  exclusive  appeal
   43    rights for the review of the amount of the
   44    federal  disallowance  assigned  to   each
   45    social services district shall be pursuant
   46    to  article  78 of the civil practice laws
   47    and rules; provided, however, that in  any
   48    such  action  all  of  the social services
   49    districts shall  be  joined  as  necessary
   50    parties  and  the venue of any such action
   51    shall be in Rensselaer county. Any  social

   15      any cost of living adjustment for the purpose of establishing  rates
   16      of payments, contracts or any other form of reimbursement.
   17    Within  the  amounts  appropriated herein, state reimbursement to each
   18      social services district for services  identified  herein  that  are
   19      otherwise reimbursable by the state from April 1, 2014 through March
   20      31,  2015  shall  be  limited  to a district allocation, hereinafter
   21      referred to as the district's block grant allocation.  Notwithstand-

   23      based, in part, on each district's claims for such  costs,  adjusted
   24      by  the applicable cost allocation methodology and net of any retro-
   25      active payments for the 12 month period ending June  30,  2013  that
   26      are  submitted  on  or  before January 2, 2014 and, in part, on such
   27      other factors as determined by the office  of  children  and  family
   28      services  and approved by the director of the budget. Any portion of
   29      a social services  district's  allocation  from  funds  appropriated
   30      herein not claimed by such district during the state fiscal year may
   31      be  used  by  such  district for expenditures on preventive services

   33      pendent living services and aftercare services provided pursuant  to
   34      regulations  of the department of family assistance, claimed by such
   35      district during the next state fiscal year up to the amount  remain-
   36      ing from the district's foster care block grant allocation, provided
   37      however,  that  any  claims  for such services during the next state
   38      fiscal year in excess of such amount shall be subject to 62  percent
   39      state  reimbursement  exclusive  of any federal funds made available
   40      for such purposes, in accordance with directives of  the  department
   41      of  family assistance and subject to the approval of the director of
   42      the budget. Any claims submitted by a social services  district  for
   43      reimbursement  for  a  particular  state  fiscal  year for which the
   44      social  services  district  does  not  receive  state   or   federal
   45      reimbursement  during  that  state  fiscal  year  may not be claimed
   46      against that district's block grant apportionment for the next state
   47      fiscal year.

    3      ances or sanctions taken against the district pursuant to the social

    5    Notwithstanding  any  other  provision  of law, the state shall not be
    6      responsible  for  reimbursing  a  social  services  district  and  a
    7      district  shall  not seek state reimbursement for any portion of any
    8      state disallowance or sanction taken  against  the  social  services
    9      district,  or any federal disallowance attributable to final federal
   10      agency decisions or to settlement made, on or after  July  1,  1995,
   11      when  such  disallowance or sanction results from the failure of the
   12      social services district to comply with federal  or  state  require-
   13      ments,  including, but not limited to, failure to document eligibil-
   14      ity for federal or state funds in the case record; provided,  howev-
   15      er,  if  the  office  determines  that  any federal disallowance for
   16      services provided between January 1, 1999 and May 31,  1999  results
   17      solely from the late enactment of the state legislation implementing
   18      the federal adoption and safe families act, the state shall be sole-
   19      ly  responsible for the full amount of the disallowance or sanction;
   20      provided, further, however, this provision shall be deemed to  apply
   21      both  prospectively  and  retroactively  regardless  of whether such
   22      sanctions or disallowances are for services provided or claims  made
   23      prior to or after April 1, 2014.
   24    Notwithstanding  any  other provision of law, any federal disallowance
   25      resulting from a federal title IV-E eligibility review or audit that
   26      uses extrapolated statistic techniques shall be passed along by  the
   27      state  to  any  and all social services districts that the office of
   28      children and family services has determined have not  complied  with
   29      the title IV-E eligibility requirements or have not taken the neces-
   30      sary  actions to ensure compliance with such requirements including,
   31      but not limited to, failing to: assess and fully  document  all  the
   32      criteria  and  have readily available all the necessary documents to
   33      establish and continue title IV-E eligibility  for  all  title  IV-E
   34      eligible  children within the required time frames; claim title IV-E
   35      funding only for cases that meet all of the title  IV-E  eligibility
   36      criteria;  and fully implement the social services payment system on
   37      or before April 1, 2005 for all direct and voluntary  agency  foster
   38      care services.
   39    Notwithstanding  any  law  to the contrary, the office of children and
   40      family services shall impose on social services districts any feder-
   41      al disallowance issued against the state as a result  of  a  federal
   42      title  IV-E  secondary eligibility review regardless of the date the
   43      children may have entered foster care, the date the  eligibility  or

    1      on the state by the federal administration for children and families
    2      within  the  timeframes  necessary  to  avoid any potential interest
    3      payments on such amount, the office of children and family  services
    4      is  authorized  to  immediately  offset  funds otherwise due to each
    5      district for a pro rata share of the total disallowed costs based on
    6      the percentage of applicable federal title IV-E claims made by  that
    7      district  for  the  relevant  time  period  as compared to the total
    8      applicable statewide title IV-E claims. The  amount  of  the  offset
    9      against   each   district  will  be  adjusted,  if  necessary,  upon
   10      completion of the disallowance allocation process.  The final  allo-
   11      cation  of  the  amount of any federal disallowance resulting from a
   12      title IV-E secondary eligibility review shall be allocated among the
   13      districts so that each district shall be responsible for the  amount
   14      attributable  to  each  of the district's children or cases that are
   15      determined by the federal review to be  unallowable.  Each  district
   16      shall  also be responsible for a portion of the federal extrapolated
   17      disallowance amount  based  on  the  relative  error  rate  for  the
   18      district.  The  city  of  New York's error rate will be based on the
   19      federal sample and  federal  statistics.  For  all  social  services
   20      districts  other  than  the city of New York, the error rate will be
   21      based on a review conducted by the district of a sample of  children
   22      and/or  cases  determined  by  the  office  of  children  and family
   23      services and a re-review of a sub-sample  by  the  office  of  those
   24      children  and/or cases determined by the office. The office of chil-
   25      dren and family services will determine what is reasonable in estab-
   26      lishing the size of the sample and sub-sample for each district. The
   27      office of children and family  services  shall  notify  each  social
   28      services  district  of  the sample of children and/or cases from the
   29      federal audit period that the social services district must  review.
   30      Any  child  or  case  from  the  social  services  district that was
   31      included in the federal sample will automatically be included in the
   32      social services district's review sample and the determination  made
   33      at  the  federal review regarding that child or case will govern for
   34      the purposes of the social services district's  review.  The  social
   35      services district must complete and submit the results of its review
   36      to  the  office  of  children  and family services within 60 days of
   37      receipt of the sample. The error rate for the district will be based
   38      on the findings of the district's review and the office of  children
   39      and  family  services' re-review. If a social services district does
   40      not complete its review within 60 days of receiving the sample  from
   41      the  office  of children and family services, the office of children
   42      and family services  shall  assign  an  error  rate  to  the  social
   43      services district based on the relative percentage of the district's
   44      applicable  title IV-E claims for the relevant period as compared to
   45      applicable statewide title IV-E claims for  that  period  and  other
   46      circumstances  that  the  office of children and family services may
   47      consider in order to allocate 100 percent of the  federal  disallow-
   48      ance.  The  office  of children and family services shall apply each
   49      social services district's error rate to the  total  amount  of  the
   50      district's  applicable title IV-E claims including associated admin-
   51      istrative expenses. The resulting dollar  amounts  for  all  of  the
                                          331                        20001-02-5

    1      social  services districts will be summed to derive the total amount
    2      of title IV-E claims deemed to be in error statewide. To establish a
    3      disallowance percentage  for  each  social  services  district,  the
    4      amount  of  the  district's  title IV-E claims deemed to be in error
    5      will be divided by the amount of statewide title IV-E claims  deemed
    6      to  be  in  error.  The  resulting  disallowance percentage for each
    7      district will be applied  to  the  entire  title  IV-E  extrapolated
    8      disallowance  calculated  by  the  federal  review  to determine the
    9      amount of the extrapolated disallowance for which  the  district  is
   10      responsible.  Each  district will be credited for the amount already
   11      disallowed for any individual children or cases found to be in error
   12      during the federal review.  The  exclusive  appeal  rights  for  the
   13      review  of  the  amount of the federal disallowance assigned to each
   14      social services district shall be pursuant  to  article  78  of  the
   15      civil  practice  laws and rules; provided, however, that in any such
   16      action all of the social  services  districts  shall  be  joined  as
   17      necessary parties and the venue of any such action shall be in Rens-
   18      selaer  county.  Any social services district that fails to complete
   19      its sample review in the required time frames shall have no right to
   20      appeal and shall not be a necessary party to any action  brought  by
   21      another social services district.

   23      aid heretofore accrued or hereafter  to  accrue  to  municipalities.

   36      district to capture the local share of such costs.
   37    Notwithstanding any inconsistent provision of the social services  law

    1    determined by the commissioner of  health,
    2    incurred  both  prior to and subsequent to
    3    such assessment for each such period,  and
    4    if  the  director of the budget determines
    5    that such  expenditures  are  expected  to
    6    cause medicaid spending for such period to
    7    exceed the aggregate limit specified here-
    8    in  for  such  period,  the state medicaid
    9    director, in consultation with the  direc-
   10    tor  of the budget and the commissioner of
   11    health, shall develop a  medicaid  savings
   12    allocation  plan to limit such spending to
   13    the aggregate limit specified  herein  for
   14    such period.
   15  Such  medicaid savings allocation plan shall
   16    be designed, to  reduce  the  expenditures
   17    authorized by the appropriations herein in
   18    compliance  with the following guidelines:
   19    (1) reductions shall be made in compliance
   20    with applicable federal law, including the
   21    provisions of the Patient  Protection  and
   22    Affordable  Care Act, Public Law No.  111-
   23    148, and the  Health  Care  and  Education
   24    Reconciliation Act of 2010, Public Law No.
   25    111-152   (collectively  "Affordable  Care
   26    Act") and any subsequent amendments there-
   27    to or regulations promulgated  thereunder;
   28    (2)  reductions  shall be made in a manner
   29    that complies with the state medicaid plan
   30    approved by the federal centers for  medi-
   31    care   and  medicaid  services,  provided,
   32    however, that the commissioner  of  health
   33    is  authorized  to  submit  any state plan
   34    amendment or seek other federal  approval,
   35    including  waiver  authority, to implement
   36    the provisions  of  the  medicaid  savings
   37    allocation   plan  that  meets  the  other
   38    criteria set forth herein; (3)  reductions
   39    shall  be  made in a manner that maximizes
   40    federal financial  participation,  to  the
   41    extent  practicable, including any federal
   42    financial participation that is  available
   43    or is reasonably expected to become avail-
   44    able, in the discretion of the commission-
   45    er,  under  the  Affordable  Care Act; (4)
   46    reductions shall be made  uniformly  among
   47    categories   of  services  and  geographic
   48    regions of the state, to the extent  prac-
   49    ticable, and shall be made uniformly with-
   50    in  a  category  of service, to the extent
   51    practicable, except where the commissioner
   52    determines  that  there   are   sufficient
                                          537                        20001-02-5

    1    grounds  for non-uniformity, including but
    2    not  limited  to:  the  extent  to   which
    3    specific  categories  of services contrib-
    4    uted  to  department  of  health  medicaid
    5    state funds  spending  in  excess  of  the
    6    limits specified herein; the need to main-
    7    tain  safety  net  services in underserved
    8    communities; or the potential benefits  of
    9    pursuing innovative payment models contem-
   10    plated  by  the  Affordable  Care  Act, in
   11    which case such grounds shall be set forth
   12    in the medicaid savings  allocation  plan;
   13    and  (5)  reductions  shall  be  made in a
   14    manner that does not unnecessarily  create
   15    administrative  burdens to medicaid appli-
   16    cants and recipients or providers.
   17  The commissioner shall seek the input of the
   18    legislature,  as  well  as   organizations
   19    representing    health   care   providers,
   20    consumers,  businesses,  workers,   health
   21    insurers,  and others with relevant exper-
   22    tise, in developing such medicaid  savings
   23    allocation plan, to the extent that all or
   24    part  of  such  plan, in the discretion of
   25    the commissioner,  is  likely  to  have  a
   26    material  impact  on  the overall medicaid
   27    program, particular categories of  service
   28    or  particular  geographic  regions of the
   29    state.
   30  (a) The commissioner shall post the medicaid
   31    savings allocation plan on the  department
   32    of  health's  website  and  shall  provide
   33    written copies of such plan to the  chairs
   34    of  the  senate  finance  and the assembly
   35    ways and means committees at least 30 days
   36    before the date on which implementation is
   37    expected to begin.
   38  (b) The commissioner may revise the medicaid
   39    savings allocation plan subsequent to  the
   40    provisions  of  notice and prior to imple-
   41    mentation but need provide  a  new  notice
   42    pursuant to subparagraph (i) of this para-
   43    graph only if the commissioner determines,
   44    in   his  or  her  discretion,  that  such
   45    revisions materially alter the plan.
   46  Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs
   47    (a)  and  (b)  of  this  subdivision,  the
   48    commissioner   need  not  seek  the  input
   49    described in paragraph (a) of this  subdi-
   50    vision or provide notice pursuant to para-
   51    graph  (b)  of this subdivision if, in the
   52    discretion of the commissioner,  expedited
                                          538                        20001-02-5

    1    development  and implementation of a medi-
    2    caid savings allocation plan is  necessary
    3    due to a public health emergency.
    4  For  purposes  of  this  section,  a  public
    5    health emergency  is  defined  as:  (i)  a
    6    disaster,   natural   or  otherwise,  that
    7    significantly increases the immediate need
    8    for health care personnel in  an  area  of
    9    the state; (ii) an event or condition that
   10    creates a widespread risk of exposure to a
   11    serious   communicable   disease,  or  the
   12    potential  for  such  widespread  risk  of
   13    exposure;  or  (iii)  any  other  event or
   14    condition determined by  the  commissioner
   15    to constitute an imminent threat to public
   16    health.
   17  Nothing in this paragraph shall be deemed to
   18    prevent  all  or  part  of  such  medicaid
   19    savings allocation plan from taking effect
   20    retroactively to the extent  permitted  by
   21    the federal centers for medicare and medi-
   22    caid services.
   23  In  accordance  with  the  medicaid  savings
   24    allocation plan, the commissioner  of  the
   25    department  of health shall reduce depart-
   26    ment of health state funds medicaid spend-
   27    ing by the amount of the  projected  over-
   28    spending  through,  actions including, but
   29    not limited  to  modifying  or  suspending
   30    reimbursement  methods,  including but not
   31    limited to all fees,  premium  levels  and
   32    rates   of  payment,  notwithstanding  any
   33    provision of  law  that  sets  a  specific
   34    amount   or   methodology   for  any  such
   35    payments or rates  of  payment;  modifying
   36    medicaid  program  benefits;  seeking  all
   37    necessary  federal  approvals,  including,
   38    but  not limited to waivers, waiver amend-
   39    ments;  and  suspending  time  frames  for
   40    notice,  approval or certification of rate
   41    requirements,     notwithstanding      any
   42    provision  of  law,  rule or regulation to
   43    the contrary, including but not limited to
   44    sections  2807  and  3614  of  the  public
   45    health law, section 18 of chapter 2 of the
   46    laws of 1988, and 18 NYCRR 505.14(h).
   47  The  department  of  health  shall prepare a
   48    monthly report that sets forth: (a)  known
   49    and  projected  department of health medi-
   50    caid expenditures as described in subdivi-
   51    sion (1) of this section, and factors that
   52    could result in medicaid disbursements for

   16    with applicable federal law, including the

   23    to or regulations promulgated  thereunder;

   25    that complies with the state medicaid plan
   26    approved by the federal centers for  medi-
   27    care   and  medicaid  services,  provided,
   28    however, that the commissioner  of  health
   29    is  authorized  to  submit  any state plan
   30    amendment or seek other federal  approval,
   31    including  waiver  authority, to implement
   32    the provisions  of  the  medicaid  savings
   33    allocation   plan  that  meets  the  other
   34    criteria set forth herein; (3)  reductions
   35    shall  be  made in a manner that maximizes
   36    federal financial  participation,  to  the
   37    extent  practicable, including any federal
   38    financial participation that is  available
   39    or is reasonably expected to become avail-
   40    able, in the discretion of the commission-

   49    grounds  for non-uniformity, including but
   50    not  limited  to:  the  extent  to   which

   10    manner  that does not unnecessarily create
   11    administrative burdens to medicaid  appli-
   12    cants and recipients or providers.
   13  The commissioner shall seek the input of the
   14    legislature,   as  well  as  organizations
   15    representing   health   care    providers,
   16    consumers,   businesses,  workers,  health
   17    insurers, and others with relevant  exper-
   18    tise,  in developing such medicaid savings
   19    allocation plan, to the extent that all or
   20    part of such plan, in  the  discretion  of
   21    the  commissioner,  is  likely  to  have a
   22    material impact on  the  overall  medicaid
   23    program,  particular categories of service
   24    or particular geographic  regions  of  the
   25    states.
   26  (a) The commissioner shall post the medicaid
   27    savings  allocation plan on the department
   28    of  health's  website  and  shall  provide
   29    written  copies of such plan to the chairs

   31    ways and means committees at least 30 days
   32    before the date on which implementation is
   33    expected to begin.
   34  (b) The commissioner may revise the medicaid
   35    savings  allocation plan subsequent to the

   38    pursuant to subparagraph (i) of this para-

   40    in  his  or  her  discretion,  that   such

   42  Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs
   43    (a)  and  (b)  of  this  subdivision,  the

   45    described  in paragraph (a) of this subdi-

    7    creates a widespread risk of exposure to a
    8    serious  communicable  disease,   or   the
    9    potential  for  such  widespread  risk  of
   10    exposure; or  (iii)  any  other  event  or
   11    condition  determined  by the commissioner
   12    to constitute an imminent threat to public

   21    allocation  plan,  the commissioner of the

   24    ing  by  the amount of the projected over-

   32    payments or rates of payment; modifying or
   33    discontinuing  medicaid  program benefits;

   14    determines   that   there  are  sufficient
   15    grounds for non-uniformity, including  but
   16    not   limited  to:  the  extent  to  which
   17    specific categories of  services  contrib-
   18    uted  to  department  of  health  medicaid
   19    state funds  spending  in  excess  of  the
   20    limits specified herein; the need to main-
   21    tain  safety  net  services in underserved
   22    communities; or the potential benefits  of
   23    pursuing innovative payment models contem-
   24    plated  by  the  Affordable  Care  Act, in
   25    which case such grounds shall be set forth
   26    in the medicaid savings  allocation  plan;
   27    and  (5)  reductions  shall  be  made in a
   28    manner that does not unnecessarily  create
   29    administrative  burdens to medicaid appli-
   30    cants and recipients or providers.
   31  The commissioner shall seek the input of the
   32    legislature,  as  well  as   organizations
   33    representing    health   care   providers,
   34    consumers,  businesses,  workers,   health
   35    insurers,  and others with relevant exper-
   36    tise, in developing such medicaid  savings
   37    allocation plan, to the extent that all or
   38    part  of  such  plan, in the discretion of
   39    the commissioner,  is  likely  to  have  a
   40    material  impact  on  the overall medicaid
   41    program, particular categories of  service
   42    or  particular  geographic  regions of the
   43    state.
   44  (a) The commissioner shall post the medicaid
   45    savings allocation plan on the  department
   46    of  health's  website  and  shall  provide
   47    written copies of such plan to the  chairs
   48    of  the  senate  finance  and the assembly
   49    ways and means committees at least 30 days
   50    before the date on which implementation is

    1  (b) The commissioner may revise the medicaid
    2    savings allocation plan subsequent to  the
    3    provisions  of  notice and prior to imple-
    4    mentation but need provide  a  new  notice
    5    pursuant to subparagraph (i) of this para-
    6    graph only if the commissioner determines,
    7    in   his  or  her  discretion,  that  such
    8    revisions materially alter the plan.
    9  Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs
   10    (a)  and  (b)  of  this  subdivision,  the
   11    commissioner   need  not  seek  the  input
   12    described in paragraph (a) of this  subdi-
   13    vision or provide notice pursuant to para-
   14    graph  (b)  of this subdivision if, in the
   15    discretion of the commissioner,  expedited
   16    development  and implementation of a medi-
   17    caid savings allocation plan is  necessary
   18    due to a public health emergency.
   19  For  purposes  of  this  section,  a  public
   20    health emergency  is  defined  as:  (i)  a
   21    disaster,   natural   or  otherwise,  that
   22    significantly increases the immediate need
   23    for health care personnel in  an  area  of
   24    the state; (ii) an event or condition that
   25    creates a widespread risk of exposure to a
   26    serious   communicable   disease,  or  the
   27    potential  for  such  widespread  risk  of
   28    exposure;  or  (iii)  any  other  event or
   29    condition determined by  the  commissioner
   30    to constitute an imminent threat to public
   31    health.
   32  Nothing in this paragraph shall be deemed to
   33    prevent  all  or  part  of  such  medicaid
   34    savings allocation plan from taking effect
   35    retroactively to the extent  permitted  by
   36    the federal centers for medicare and medi-
   37    caid services.
   38  In  accordance  with  the  medicaid  savings

    1    director,  in consultation with the direc-

    7  Such  medicaid savings allocation plan shall
    8    be designed, to  reduce  the  expenditures
    9    authorized by the appropriations herein in
   10    compliance  with the following guidelines:

   18    Act") and any subsequent amendments there-
   19    to or regulations promulgated  thereunder;
   20    (2)  reductions  shall be made in a manner
   21    that complies with the state medicaid plan
   22    approved by the federal centers for  medi-
   23    care   and  medicaid  services,  provided,
   24    however, that the commissioner  of  health
   25    is  authorized  to  submit  any state plan
   26    amendment or seek other federal  approval,
   27    including  waiver  authority, to implement
   28    the provisions  of  the  medicaid  savings
   29    allocation   plan  that  meets  the  other
   30    criteria set forth herein; (3)  reductions
   31    shall  be  made in a manner that maximizes
   32    federal financial  participation,  to  the
   33    extent  practicable, including any federal
   34    financial participation that is  available
   35    or is reasonably expected to become avail-
   36    able, in the discretion of the commission-
   37    er,  under  the  Affordable  Care Act; (4)
   38    reductions shall be made  uniformly  among
   39    categories   of  services  and  geographic
   40    regions of the state, to the extent  prac-
   41    ticable, and shall be made uniformly with-

   43    practicable, except where the commissioner
   44    determines  that  there   are   sufficient
   45    grounds  for non-uniformity, including but
   46    not  limited  to:  the  extent  to   which
   47    specific  categories  of services contrib-
   48    uted  to  department  of  health  medicaid
   49    state  funds  spending  in  excess  of the

    3    which case such grounds shall be set forth
    4    in  the  medicaid savings allocation plan;
    5    and (5) reductions  shall  be  made  in  a
    6    manner  that does not unnecessarily create
    7    administrative burdens to medicaid  appli-
    8    cants and recipients or providers.
    9  The commissioner shall seek the input of the
   10    legislature,   as  well  as  organizations
   11    representing   health   care    providers,
   12    consumers,   businesses,  workers,  health
   13    insurers, and others with relevant  exper-
   14    tise,  in developing such medicaid savings
   15    allocation plan, to the extent that all or
   16    part of such plan, in  the  discretion  of
   17    the  commissioner,  is  likely  to  have a
   18    material impact on  the  overall  medicaid
   19    program,  particular categories of service
   20    or particular geographic  regions  of  the
   21    state.
   22  (a) The commissioner shall post the medicaid
   23    savings  allocation plan on the department
   24    of  health's  website  and  shall  provide
   25    written  copies of such plan to the chairs
   26    of the senate  finance  and  the  assembly
   27    ways and means committees at least 30 days
   28    before the date on which implementation is
   29    expected to begin.
   30  (b) The commissioner may revise the medicaid
   31    savings  allocation plan subsequent to the
   32    provisions of notice and prior  to  imple-
   33    mentation  but  need  provide a new notice
   34    pursuant to subparagraph (i) of this para-
   35    graph only if the commissioner determines,
   36    in  his  or  her  discretion,  that   such
   37    revisions materially alter the plan.
   38  Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs
   39    (a)  and  (b)  of  this  subdivision,  the
   40    commissioner  need  not  seek  the   input
   41    described  in paragraph (a) of this subdi-
   42    vision or provide notice pursuant to para-
   43    graph (b) of this subdivision if,  in  the
   44    discretion  of the commissioner, expedited
   45    development and implementation of a  medi-
   46    caid  savings allocation plan is necessary
   47    due to a public health emergency.
   48  For  purposes  of  this  section,  a  public
   49    health  emergency  is  defined  as:  (i) a
   50    disaster,  natural  or   otherwise,   that
   51    significantly increases the immediate need

    5    exposure; or  (iii)  any  other  event  or
    6    condition  determined  by the commissioner
    7    to constitute an imminent threat to public
    8    health.
    9  Nothing in this paragraph shall be deemed to

    9    determines  that  there   are   sufficient
   10    grounds  for non-uniformity, including but

   14    state  funds  spending  in  excess  of the
   15    limits specified herein; the need to main-
   16    tain safety net  services  in  underserved
   17    communities;  or the potential benefits of
   18    pursuing innovative payment models contem-
   19    plated by  the  Affordable  Care  Act,  in
   20    which case such grounds shall be set forth
   21    in  the  medicaid savings allocation plan;
   22    and (5) reductions  shall  be  made  in  a
   23    manner  that does not unnecessarily create
   24    administrative burdens to medicaid  appli-
   25    cants and recipients or providers.
   26  The commissioner shall seek the input of the
   27    legislature,   as  well  as  organizations
   28    representing   health   care    providers,
   29    consumers,   businesses,  workers,  health
   30    insurers, and others with relevant  exper-
   31    tise,  in developing such medicaid savings
   32    allocation plan, to the extent that all or
   33    part of such plan, in  the  discretion  of
   34    the  commissioner,  is  likely  to  have a
   35    material impact on  the  overall  medicaid
   36    program,  particular categories of service
   37    or particular geographic  regions  of  the
   38    state.
   39  (a) The commissioner shall post the medicaid

    3  Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs
    4    (a)  and  (b)  of  this  subdivision,  the

    6    described  in paragraph (a) of this subdi-

   18    the state; (ii) an event or condition that
   19    creates a widespread risk of exposure to a
   20    serious  communicable  disease,   or   the
   21    potential  for  such  widespread  risk  of
   22    exposure; or  (iii)  any  other  event  or
   23    condition  determined  by the commissioner
   24    to constitute an imminent threat to public
   25    health.
   26  Nothing in this paragraph shall be deemed to
   27    prevent  all  or  part  of  such  medicaid
   28    savings allocation plan from taking effect
   29    retroactively  to  the extent permitted by
   30    the federal centers for medicare and medi-
   31    caid services.
   32  In  accordance  with  the  medicaid  savings
   33    allocation  plan,  the commissioner of the
   34    department of health shall reduce  depart-

   13      sioner of health, and the New York state division of the budget.

   28      through March 31, 2015, shall not exceed $17,082,871,000  except  as
   29      provided  below and state share medicaid spending, in the aggregate,
   30      for the period April 1, 2015 through [March 31] SEPTEMBER 15,  2016,

   34      provided,  however,  such  aggregate  limits  may be adjusted by the
   35      director of the budget to account for any changes in  the  New  York
   36      state  federal  medical  assistance  percentage  amount  established
   37      pursuant to the federal social security act, increases  in  provider
   38      revenues,  reductions in local social services district payments for
   39      medical assistance administration and beginning April  1,  2012  the
   40      operational  costs  of  the  New  York state medical indemnity fund,
   41      pursuant to a chapter establishing such fund. Such  projections  may
   42      be  adjusted  by the director of the budget to account for increased
   43      or expedited department of health state funds medicaid  expenditures
   44      as  a  result  of  a  natural or other type of disaster, including a
   45      governmental declaration of emergency. The director of  the  budget,

   49      sioner of health, incurred both prior  to  and  subsequent  to  such
   50      assessment  for  each such period, and if the director of the budget
   51      determines that such expenditures are  expected  to  cause  medicaid
   52      spending  for  such  period  to exceed the aggregate limit specified

    1      herein for such period, the state medicaid director, in consultation
    2      with the director of the budget  and  the  commissioner  of  health,
    3      shall  develop  a  medicaid  savings  allocation  plan to limit such
    4      spending to the aggregate limit specified herein for such period.
    5    Such medicaid savings allocation plan shall be designed, to reduce the
    6      expenditures  authorized  by the appropriations herein in compliance
    7      with the following guidelines:  (1)  reductions  shall  be  made  in
    8      compliance  with applicable federal law, including the provisions of
    9      the Patient Protection and  Affordable  Care  Act,  Public  Law  No.
   10      111-148,  and  the  Health  Care and Education Reconciliation Act of
   11      2010, Public Law No. 111-152 (collectively  "Affordable  Care  Act")
   12      and  any  subsequent  amendments  thereto or regulations promulgated
   13      thereunder; (2) reductions shall be made in a manner  that  complies
   14      with  the  state  medicaid  plan approved by the federal centers for
   15      medicare and medicaid services, provided, however, that the  commis-
   16      sioner of health is authorized to submit any state plan amendment or
   17      seek  other  federal approval, including waiver authority, to imple-
   18      ment the provisions of the medicaid  savings  allocation  plan  that
   19      meets  the  other criteria set forth herein; (3) reductions shall be
   20      made in a manner that maximizes federal financial participation,  to
   21      the  extent  practicable,  including  any  federal financial partic-
   22      ipation that is available or is reasonably expected to become avail-
   23      able, in the discretion of the commissioner,  under  the  Affordable
   24      Care Act; (4) reductions shall be made uniformly among categories of
   25      services  and geographic regions of the state, to the extent practi-
   26      cable, and shall be made uniformly within a category of service,  to
   27      the  extent  practicable,  except  where the commissioner determines
   28      that there are sufficient grounds for non-uniformity, including  but
   29      not limited to:  the extent to which specific categories of services
   30      contributed to department of health medicaid state funds spending in
   31      excess  of  the limits specified herein; the need to maintain safety
   32      net services in underserved communities; or the  potential  benefits
   33      of pursuing innovative payment models contemplated by the Affordable
   34      Care Act, in which case such grounds shall be set forth in the medi-
   35      caid  savings allocation plan; and (5) reductions shall be made in a
   36      manner that does not unnecessarily create administrative burdens  to
   37      medicaid applicants and recipients or providers.
   38    The  commissioner  shall seek the input of the legislature, as well as
   39      organizations representing health care providers,  consumers,  busi-
   40      nesses,  workers,  health  insurers, and others with relevant exper-
   41      tise, in developing such medicaid savings allocation  plan,  to  the
   42      extent  that  all  or  part  of  such plan, in the discretion of the
   43      commissioner, is likely to have a material  impact  on  the  overall
   44      medicaid  program,  particular  categories  of service or particular
   45      geographic regions of the state.
   46    (a) The commissioner shall post the medicaid savings  allocation  plan
   47      on  the  department  of  health's  website and shall provide written
   48      copies of such plan to the chairs of  the  senate  finance  and  the
   49      assembly  ways and means committees at least 30 days before the date
   50      on which implementation is expected to begin.
   51    (b) The commissioner may revise the medicaid savings  allocation  plan
   52      subsequent  to  the provisions of notice and prior to implementation
                                          614                        20001-02-5

    1      but need provide a new notice pursuant to subparagraph (i)  of  this
    2      paragraph  only  if  the  commissioner  determines,  in  his  or her
    3      discretion, that such revisions materially alter the plan.
    4    Notwithstanding  the  provisions  of  paragraphs  (a)  and (b) of this
    5      subdivision, the commissioner need not seek the input  described  in
    6      paragraph  (a)  of  this  subdivision  or provide notice pursuant to
    7      paragraph (b) of this paragraph if, in the discretion of the commis-
    8      sioner, expedited  development  and  implementation  of  a  medicaid
    9      savings allocation plan is necessary due to a public health emergen-
   10      cy.
   11    For purposes of this section, a public health emergency is defined as:
   12      (i)  a  disaster, natural or otherwise, that significantly increases
   13      the immediate need for health care  personnel  in  an  area  of  the
   14      state;  (ii) an event or condition that creates a widespread risk of
   15      exposure to a serious communicable disease,  or  the  potential  for
   16      such widespread risk of exposure; or (iii) any other event or condi-
   17      tion determined by the commissioner to constitute an imminent threat
   18      to public health.
   19    Nothing  in  this  paragraph shall be deemed to prevent all or part of
   20      such medicaid savings allocation plan from  taking  effect  retroac-
   21      tively  to  the extent permitted by the federal centers for medicare
   22      and medicaid services.
   23    In accordance with the medicaid savings allocation plan,  the  commis-
   24      sioner of the department of health shall reduce department of health
   25      state  funds  medicaid spending by the amount of the projected over-
   26      spending through, actions including, but not limited to modifying or
   27      suspending reimbursement methods, including but not limited  to  all
   28      fees,  premium  levels  and  rates  of  payment, notwithstanding any
   29      provision of law that sets a specific amount or methodology for  any
   30      such  payments or rates of payment; modifying medicaid program bene-
   31      fits; seeking all necessary federal approvals,  including,  but  not
   32      limited  to  waivers,  waiver amendments; and suspending time frames
   33      for notice, approval or certification of rate requirements, notwith-
   34      standing any provision of law, rule or regulation to  the  contrary,
   35      including  but  not  limited to sections 2807 and 3614 of the public
   36      health law, section 18 of chapter 2 of the  laws  of  1988,  and  18
   37      NYCRR 505.14(h).
   38    The  department  of  health  shall  prepare a monthly report that sets
   39      forth: (a) known and projected department of health medicaid expend-
   40      itures as described in subdivision (1) of this section, and  factors
   41      that  could  result in medicaid disbursements for the relevant state
   42      fiscal year to exceed the projected department of health state funds
   43      disbursements in the  enacted  budget  financial  plan  pursuant  to
   44      subdivision  3  of  section  23  of the state finance law, including
   45      spending increases or decreases  due  to:  enrollment  fluctuations,
   46      rate  changes,  utilization  changes,  MRT investments, and shift of
   47      beneficiaries to managed care; and variations  in  offline  medicaid
   48      payments;  and  (b)  the  actions  taken  to  implement any medicaid
   49      savings allocation plan implemented pursuant to subdivision  (4)  of
   50      this  section,  including  information concerning the impact of such

    8      authorized child care agencies.
    9    Notwithstanding section 40 of state finance law or any  other  law  to
   10      the  contrary,  all medical assistance appropriations made from this
   11      account shall remain in full force and effect in accordance, in  the
   12      aggregate, with the following schedule: not more than 49 percent for
   13      the period April 1, 2014 to March 31, 2015; and the remaining amount

   15    Notwithstanding  section  40 of the state finance law or any provision
   16      of law to the contrary, subject to federal approval,  department  of
   17      health state funds medicaid spending, excluding payments for medical
   18      services  provided  at  state  facilities  operated by the office of
   19      mental health, the office for people with developmental disabilities
   20      and the office  of  alcoholism  and  substance  abuse  services  and
   21      further excluding any payments which are not appropriated within the

   23      through  March  31, 2015, shall not exceed $17,082,871,000 except as
   24      provided below and state share medicaid spending, in the  aggregate,
   25      for  the period April 1, 2015 through [March 31] SEPTEMBER 15, 2016,
   26      shall not exceed $17,937,867,000, but in no event  shall  department

   28      through   [March  31]  SEPTEMBER  15,  2016  exceed  $35,020,738,000
   29      provided, however, such aggregate limits  may  be  adjusted  by  the
   30      director  of  the  budget to account for any changes in the New York
   31      state  federal  medical  assistance  percentage  amount  established
   32      pursuant  to  the federal social security act, increases in provider
   33      revenues, reductions in local social services district payments  for

   35      operational costs of the New  York  state  medical  indemnity  fund,
   36      pursuant  to  a chapter establishing such fund. Such projections may
   37      be adjusted by the director of the budget to account  for  increased
   38      or  expedited department of health state funds medicaid expenditures
   39      as a result of a natural or other  type  of  disaster,  including  a
   40      governmental  declaration  of emergency. The director of the budget,
   41      in consultation with the commissioner of health, shall assess  on  a
   42      monthly  basis known and projected medicaid expenditures by category
   43      of service and by geographic region, as defined by the commissioner,
   44      incurred both prior to and subsequent to such  assessment  for  each
   45      such  period, and if the director of the budget determines that such
   46      expenditures are expected to cause medicaid spending for such period
   47      to exceed the aggregate limit specified herein for such period,  the
   48      state  medicaid  director,  in consultation with the director of the
   49      budget and the commissioner of  health,  shall  develop  a  medicaid

    1      savings  allocation  plan  to  limit  such spending to the aggregate
    2      limit specified herein for such period.
    3    Such medicaid savings allocation plan shall be designed, to reduce the
    4      expenditures  authorized  by the appropriations herein in compliance
    5      with the following guidelines:  (1)  reductions  shall  be  made  in
    6      compliance  with applicable federal law, including the provisions of
    7      the Patient Protection and  Affordable  Care  Act,  Public  Law  No.
    8      111-148,  and  the  Health  Care and Education Reconciliation Act of
    9      2010, Public Law No. 111-152 (collectively  "Affordable  Care  Act")
   10      and  any  subsequent  amendments  thereto or regulations promulgated
   11      thereunder; (2) reductions shall be made in a manner  that  complies
   12      with  the  state  medicaid  plan approved by the federal centers for
   13      medicare and medicaid services, provided, however, that the  commis-
   14      sioner of health is authorized to submit any state plan amendment or
   15      seek  other  federal approval, including waiver authority, to imple-
   16      ment the provisions of the medicaid  savings  allocation  plan  that
   17      meets  the  other criteria set forth herein; (3) reductions shall be
   18      made in a manner that maximizes federal financial participation,  to
   19      the  extent  practicable,  including  any  federal financial partic-
   20      ipation that is available or is reasonably expected to become avail-
   21      able, in the discretion of the commissioner,  under  the  Affordable
   22      Care Act; (4) reductions shall be made uniformly among categories of
   23      services  and geographic regions of the state, to the extent practi-
   24      cable, and shall be made uniformly within a category of service,  to
   25      the  extent  practicable,  except  where the commissioner determines
   26      that there are sufficient grounds for non-uniformity, including  but
   27      not limited to:  the extent to which specific categories of services
   28      contributed to department of health medicaid state funds spending in
   29      excess  of  the limits specified herein; the need to maintain safety
   30      net services in underserved communities; or the  potential  benefits
   31      of pursuing innovative payment models contemplated by the Affordable
   32      Care Act, in which case such grounds shall be set forth in the medi-
   33      caid  savings allocation plan; and (5) reductions shall be made in a
   34      manner that does not unnecessarily create administrative burdens  to
   35      medicaid applicants and recipients or providers.
   36    The  commissioner  shall seek the input of the legislature, as well as
   37      organizations representing health care providers,  consumers,  busi-
   38      nesses,  workers,  health  insurers, and others with relevant exper-
   39      tise, in developing such medicaid savings allocation  plan,  to  the
   40      extent  that  all  or  part  of  such plan, in the discretion of the
   41      commissioner, is likely to have a material  impact  on  the  overall
   42      medicaid  program,  particular  categories  of service or particular
   43      geographic regions of the states.
   44    (a) The commissioner shall post the medicaid savings  allocation  plan
   45      on  the  department  of  health's  website and shall provide written
   46      copies of such plan to the chairs of  the  senate  finance  and  the
   47      assembly  ways and means committees at least 30 days before the date
   48      on which implementation is expected to begin.
   49    (b) The commissioner may revise the medicaid savings  allocation  plan
   50      subsequent  to  the provisions of notice and prior to implementation
   51      but need provide a new notice pursuant to subparagraph (i)  of  this
                                          624                        20001-02-5

    1      paragraph  only  if  the  commissioner  determines,  in  his  or her
    2      discretion, that such revisions materially alter the plan.
    3    Notwithstanding  the  provisions  of  paragraphs  (a)  and (b) of this
    4      subdivision, the commissioner need not seek the input  described  in
    5      paragraph  (a)  of  this  subdivision  or provide notice pursuant to
    6      paragraph (b) of this paragraph if, in the discretion of the commis-
    7      sioner, expedited  development  and  implementation  of  a  medicaid
    8      savings allocation plan is necessary due to a public health emergen-
    9      cy.
   10    For purposes of this section, a public health emergency is defined as:
   11      (i)  a  disaster, natural or otherwise, that significantly increases
   12      the immediate need for health care  personnel  in  an  area  of  the
   13      state;  (ii) an event or condition that creates a widespread risk of
   14      exposure to a serious communicable disease,  or  the  potential  for
   15      such widespread risk of exposure; or (iii) any other event or condi-
   16      tion determined by the commissioner to constitute an imminent threat
   17      to public health.
   18    Nothing  in  this  paragraph shall be deemed to prevent all or part of
   19      such medicaid savings allocation plan from  taking  effect  retroac-
   20      tively  to  the extent permitted by the federal centers for medicare
   21      and medicaid services.
   22    In accordance with the medicaid savings allocation plan,  the  commis-
   23      sioner of the department of health shall reduce department of health
   24      state  funds  medicaid spending by the amount of the projected over-
   25      spending through, actions including, but not limited to modifying or
   26      suspending reimbursement methods, including but not limited  to  all
   27      fees,  premium  levels  and  rates  of  payment, notwithstanding any
   28      provision of law that sets a specific amount or methodology for  any
   29      such  payments or rates of payment; modifying or discontinuing medi-
   30      caid program benefits;  seeking  all  necessary  federal  approvals,
   31      including,  but  not  limited  to  waivers,  waiver  amendments; and
   32      suspending time frames for notice, approval or certification of rate
   33      requirements, notwithstanding any provision of law,  rule  or  regu-
   34      lation  to  the contrary, including but not limited to sections 2807
   35      and 3614 of the public health law, section 18 of chapter  2  of  the
   36      laws of 1988, and 18 NYCRR 505.14(h).
   37    The  department  of  health  shall  prepare a monthly report that sets
   38      forth: (a) known and projected department of health medicaid expend-
   39      itures as described in subdivision 1 of this  section,  and  factors
   40      that  could  result in medicaid disbursements for the relevant state
   41      fiscal year to exceed the projected department of health state funds
   42      disbursements in the  enacted  budget  financial  plan  pursuant  to
   43      subdivision  3  of  section  23  of the state finance law, including
   44      spending increases or decreases  due  to:  enrollment  fluctuations,
   45      rate  changes,  utilization  changes,  MRT investments, and shift of
   46      beneficiaries to managed care; and variations  in  offline  medicaid
   47      payments;  and  (b)  the  actions  taken  to  implement any medicaid
   48      savings allocation plan implemented pursuant  to  subdivision  4  of
   49      this  section,  including  information concerning the impact of such
   50      actions on each category of service and each  geographic  region  of
   51      the  state. Each such monthly report shall be provided to the chairs
   52      of the senate finance and the assembly ways and means committees and

    7  The appropriation made by chapter 53, section 1, of the laws of 2014, is
    8      hereby amended and reappropriated to read:
    9    Notwithstanding  section  40  of state finance law or any other law to
   10      the contrary, all medical assistance appropriations made  from  this
   11      account  shall remain in full force and effect in accordance, in the

   13      the period April 1, 2014 to March 31, 2015; and the remaining amount
   14      for the period April 1, 2015 to [March 31] SEPTEMBER 15, 2016.
   15    Notwithstanding section 40 of the state finance law or  any  provision
   16      of  law  to the contrary, subject to federal approval, department of
   17      health state funds medicaid spending, excluding payments for medical
   18      services provided at state facilities  operated  by  the  office  of
   19      mental health, the office for people with developmental disabilities
   20      and  the  office  of  alcoholism  and  substance  abuse services and
   21      further excluding any payments which are not appropriated within the
   22      department of health, in the aggregate, for the period April 1, 2014
   23      through March 31, 2015, shall not exceed $17,082,871,000  except  as
   24      provided  below and state share medicaid spending, in the aggregate,
   25      for the period April 1, 2015 through [March 31] SEPTEMBER 15,  2016,
   26      shall  not  exceed $17,937,867,000, but in no event shall department
   27      of health state funds medicaid spending for the period April 1, 2014
   28      through  [March  31]  SEPTEMBER  15,  2016  exceed   $35,020,738,000
   29      provided,  however,  such  aggregate  limits  may be adjusted by the
   30      director of the budget to account for any changes in  the  New  York
   31      state  federal  medical  assistance  percentage  amount  established
   32      pursuant to the federal social security act, increases  in  provider
   33      revenues,  reductions in local social services district payments for
   34      medical assistance administration and beginning April  1,  2012  the
   35      operational  costs  of  the  New  York state medical indemnity fund,
   36      pursuant to a chapter establishing such fund. Such  projections  may
   37      be  adjusted  by the director of the budget to account for increased
   38      or expedited department of health state funds medicaid  expenditures
   39      as  a  result  of  a  natural or other type of disaster, including a
   40      governmental declaration of emergency. The director of  the  budget,
   41      in  consultation  with  the  commissioner of health, shall assess on
   42      monthly basis known and projected medicaid expenditures by  category
   43      of  service  and  by geographic region, as determined by the commis-
   44      sioner of health, incurred both prior  to  and  subsequent  to  such
   45      assessment  for  each such period, and if the director of the budget
   46      determines that such expenditures are  expected  to  cause  medicaid
   47      spending  for  such  period  to exceed the aggregate limit specified
   48      herein for such period, the state medicaid director, in consultation
   49      with the director of the budget  and  the  commissioner  of  health,
                                          639                        20001-02-5

                    AID TO LOCALITIES - REAPPROPRIATIONS   2015-16
    1      shall  develop  a  medicaid  savings  allocation  plan to limit such
    2      spending to the aggregate limit specified herein for such period.
    3    Such medicaid savings allocation plan shall be designed, to reduce the
    4      expenditures  authorized  by the appropriations herein in compliance
    5      with the following guidelines:  (1)  reductions  shall  be  made  in
    6      compliance  with applicable federal law, including the provisions of
    7      the Patient Protection and  Affordable  Care  Act,  Public  Law  No.
    8      111-148,  and  the  Health  Care and Education Reconciliation Act of
    9      2010, Public Law No. 111-152 (collectively  "Affordable  Care  Act")
   10      and  any  subsequent  amendments  thereto or regulations promulgated
   11      thereunder; (2) reductions shall be made in a manner  that  complies
   12      with  the  state  medicaid  plan approved by the federal centers for
   13      medicare and medicaid services, provided, however, that the  commis-
   14      sioner of health is authorized to submit any state plan amendment or
   15      seek  other  federal approval, including waiver authority, to imple-
   16      ment the provisions of the medicaid  savings  allocation  plan  that
   17      meets  the  other criteria set forth herein; (3) reductions shall be
   18      made in a manner that maximizes federal financial participation,  to
   19      the  extent  practicable,  including  any  federal financial partic-
   20      ipation that is available or is reasonably expected to become avail-
   21      able, in the discretion of the commissioner,  under  the  Affordable
   22      Care Act; (4) reductions shall be made uniformly among categories of
   23      services  and geographic regions of the state, to the extent practi-
   24      cable, and shall be made uniformly within a category of service,  to
   25      the  extent  practicable,  except  where the commissioner determines
   26      that there are sufficient grounds for non-uniformity, including  but
   27      not limited to:  the extent to which specific categories of services
   28      contributed to department of health medicaid state funds spending in
   29      excess  of  the limits specified herein; the need to maintain safety
   30      net services in underserved communities; or the  potential  benefits
   31      of pursuing innovative payment models contemplated by the Affordable
   32      Care Act, in which case such grounds shall be set forth in the medi-
   33      caid  savings allocation plan; and (5) reductions shall be made in a
   34      manner that does not unnecessarily create administrative burdens  to
   35      medicaid applicants and recipients or providers.
   36    The  commissioner  shall seek the input of the legislature, as well as
   37      organizations representing health care providers,  consumers,  busi-
   38      nesses,  workers,  health  insurers, and others with relevant exper-
   39      tise, in developing such medicaid savings allocation  plan,  to  the
   40      extent  that  all  or  part  of  such plan, in the discretion of the
   41      commissioner, is likely to have a material  impact  on  the  overall
   42      medicaid  program,  particular  categories  of service or particular
   43      geographic regions of the state.
   44    (a) The commissioner shall post the medicaid savings  allocation  plan
   45      on  the  department  of  health's  website and shall provide written
   46      copies of such plan to the chairs of  the  senate  finance  and  the
   47      assembly  ways and means committees at least 30 days before the date
   48      on which implementation is expected to begin.
   49    (b) The commissioner may revise the medicaid savings  allocation  plan
   50      subsequent  to  the provisions of notice and prior to implementation
   51      but need provide a new notice pursuant to subparagraph (i)  of  this
                                          640                        20001-02-5

    1      paragraph  only  if  the  commissioner  determines,  in  his  or her
    2      discretion, that such revisions materially alter the plan.
    3    Notwithstanding  the  provisions  of  paragraphs  (a)  and (b) of this
    4      subdivision, the commissioner need not seek the input  described  in
    5      paragraph  (a)  of  this  subdivision  or provide notice pursuant to
    6      paragraph (b) of this paragraph if, in the discretion of the commis-
    7      sioner, expedited  development  and  implementation  of  a  medicaid
    8      savings allocation plan is necessary due to a public health emergen-
    9      cy.
   10    For purposes of this section, a public health emergency is defined as:
   11      (i)  a  disaster, natural or otherwise, that significantly increases
   12      the immediate need for health care  personnel  in  an  area  of  the
   13      state;  (ii) an event or condition that creates a widespread risk of
   14      exposure to a serious communicable disease,  or  the  potential  for
   15      such widespread risk of exposure; or (iii) any other event or condi-
   16      tion determined by the commissioner to constitute an imminent threat
   17      to public health.
   18    Nothing  in  this  paragraph shall be deemed to prevent all or part of
   19      such medicaid savings allocation plan from  taking  effect  retroac-
   20      tively  to  the extent permitted by the federal centers for medicare
   21      and medicaid services.
   22    In accordance with the medicaid savings allocation plan,  the  commis-
   23      sioner of the department of health shall reduce department of health
   24      state  funds  medicaid spending by the amount of the projected over-
   25      spending through, actions including, but not limited to modifying or
   26      suspending reimbursement methods, including but not limited  to  all
   27      fees,  premium  levels  and  rates  of  payment, notwithstanding any
   28      provision of law that sets a specific amount or methodology for  any
   29      such  payments or rates of payment; modifying medicaid program bene-
   30      fits; seeking all necessary federal approvals,  including,  but  not
   31      limited  to  waivers,  waiver amendments; and suspending time frames
   32      for notice, approval or certification of rate requirements, notwith-
   33      standing any provision of law, rule or regulation to  the  contrary,
   34      including  but  not  limited to sections 2807 and 3614 of the public
   35      health law, section 18 of chapter 2 of the  laws  of  1988,  and  18
   36      NYCRR  505.14(h).  The  department of health shall prepare a monthly
   37      report that sets forth: (a) known and projected department of health
   38      medicaid expenditures as described in subdivision 1 of this section,
   39      and factors that could result  in  medicaid  disbursements  for  the
   40      relevant  state  fiscal  year  to exceed the projected department of
   41      health state funds disbursements in  the  enacted  budget  financial
   42      plan  pursuant  to  subdivision 3 of section 23 of the state finance
   43      law, including spending increases or decreases  due  to:  enrollment
   44      fluctuations,  rate  changes,  utilization changes, MRT investments,
   45      and shift of  beneficiaries  to  managed  care;  and  variations  in
   46      offline  medicaid  payments;  and (b) the actions taken to implement
   47      any medicaid savings allocation plan implemented pursuant to  subdi-
   48      vision  4  of  this  section,  including  information concerning the
   49      impact of  such  actions  on  each  category  of  service  and  each
   50      geographic  region  of  the state. Each such monthly report shall be

   36    Notwithstanding section 40 of state finance law or any  other  law  to
   37      the  contrary,  all medical assistance appropriations made from this
   38      account shall remain in full force and effect in accordance, in  the

   44      health state funds medicaid spending, excluding payments for medical
   45      services  provided  at  state  facilities  operated by the office of
   46      mental health, the office for people with developmental disabilities

   50      through  March  31, 2015, shall not exceed $17,082,871,000 except as
                                          642                        20001-02-5

    1      provided below and state share medicaid spending, in the  aggregate,
    2      for  the period April 1, 2015 through [March 31] SEPTEMBER 15, 2016,
    3      shall not exceed $17,937,867,000, but in no event  shall  department

    5      through   [March  31]  SEPTEMBER  15,  2016  exceed  $35,020,738,000
    6      provided, however, such aggregate limits  may  be  adjusted  by  the
    7      director  of  the  budget to account for any changes in the New York
    8      state  federal  medical  assistance  percentage  amount  established
    9      pursuant  to  the federal social security act, increases in provider
   10      revenues, reductions in local social services district payments  for
   11      medical  assistance  administration  and beginning April 1, 2012 the
   12      operational costs of the New  York  state  medical  indemnity  fund,
   13      pursuant  to  a chapter establishing such fund. Such projections may
   14      be adjusted by the director of the budget to account  for  increased
   15      or  expedited department of health state funds medicaid expenditures
   16      as a result of a natural or other  type  of  disaster,  including  a
   17      governmental  declaration  of emergency. The director of the budget,
   18      in consultation with the commissioner of health, shall assess  on  a
   19      monthly  basis known and projected medicaid expenditures by category
   20      of service and by geographic region, as determined  by  the  commis-
   21      sioner  of  health,  incurred  both  prior to and subsequent to such
   22      assessment for each such period, and if the director of  the  budget
   23      determines  that  such  expenditures  are expected to cause medicaid
   24      spending for such period to exceed  the  aggregate  limit  specified
   25      herein for such period, the state medicaid director, in consultation
   26      with  the  director  of  the  budget and the commissioner of health,
   27      shall develop a medicaid  savings  allocation  plan  to  limit  such
   28      spending to the aggregate limit specified herein for such period.
   29    Such medicaid savings allocation plan shall be designed, to reduce the
   30      expenditures  authorized  by the appropriations herein in compliance
   31      with the following guidelines:  (1)  reductions  shall  be  made  in
   32      compliance  with applicable federal law, including the provisions of
   33      the Patient Protection and  Affordable  Care  Act,  Public  Law  No.
   34      111-148,  and  the  Health  Care and Education Reconciliation Act of
   35      2010, Public Law No. 111-152 (collectively  "Affordable  Care  Act")
   36      and  any  subsequent  amendments  thereto or regulations promulgated
   37      thereunder; (2) reductions shall be made in a manner  that  complies
   38      with  the  state  medicaid  plan approved by the federal centers for
   39      medicare and medicaid services, provided, however, that the  commis-
   40      sioner of health is authorized to submit any state plan amendment or
   41      seek  other  federal approval, including waiver authority, to imple-
   42      ment the provisions of the medicaid  savings  allocation  plan  that
   43      meets  the  other criteria set forth herein; (3) reductions shall be
   44      made in a manner that maximizes federal financial participation,  to
   45      the  extent  practicable,  including  any  federal financial partic-
   46      ipation that is available or is reasonably expected to become avail-
   47      able, in the discretion of the commissioner,  under  the  Affordable
   48      Care Act; (4) reductions shall be made uniformly among categories of
   49      services  and geographic regions of the state, to the extent practi-
   50      cable, and shall be made uniformly within a category of service,  to
   51      the  extent  practicable,  except  where the commissioner determines
   52      that there are sufficient grounds for non-uniformity, including  but
                                          643                        20001-02-5

    1      not limited to:  the extent to which specific categories of services
    2      contributed to department of health medicaid state funds spending in
    3      excess  of  the limits specified herein; the need to maintain safety
    4      net  services  in underserved communities; or the potential benefits
    5      of pursuing innovative payment models contemplated by the Affordable
    6      Care Act, in which case such grounds shall be set forth in the medi-
    7      caid savings allocation plan; and (5) reductions shall be made in  a
    8      manner  that does not unnecessarily create administrative burdens to
    9      medicaid applicants and recipients or providers.
   10    The commissioner shall seek the input of the legislature, as  well  as
   11      organizations  representing  health care providers, consumers, busi-
   12      nesses, workers, health insurers, and others  with  relevant  exper-
   13      tise,  in  developing  such medicaid savings allocation plan, to the
   14      extent that all or part of such  plan,  in  the  discretion  of  the
   15      commissioner,  is  likely  to  have a material impact on the overall
   16      medicaid program, particular categories  of  service  or  particular
   17      geographic regions of the state.
   18    (a)  The  commissioner shall post the medicaid savings allocation plan
   19      on the department of health's  website  and  shall  provide  written
   20      copies  of  such  plan  to  the chairs of the senate finance and the
   21      assembly ways and means committees at least 30 days before the  date
   22      on which implementation is expected to begin.
   23    (b)  The  commissioner may revise the medicaid savings allocation plan
   24      subsequent to the provisions of notice and prior  to  implementation
   25      but  need  provide a new notice pursuant to subparagraph (i) of this
   26      paragraph only  if  the  commissioner  determines,  in  his  or  her
   27      discretion, that such revisions materially alter the plan.
   28    Notwithstanding  the  provisions  of  paragraphs  (a)  and (b) of this
   29      subdivision, the commissioner need not seek the input  described  in
   30      paragraph  (a)  of  this  subdivision  or provide notice pursuant to
   31      paragraph (b) of this paragraph if, in the discretion of the commis-
   32      sioner, expedited  development  and  implementation  of  a  medicaid
   33      savings allocation plan is necessary due to a public health emergen-
   34      cy.
   35    For purposes of this section, a public health emergency is defined as:
   36      (i)  a  disaster, natural or otherwise, that significantly increases
   37      the immediate need for health care  personnel  in  an  area  of  the
   38      state;  (ii) an event or condition that creates a widespread risk of
   39      exposure to a serious communicable disease,  or  the  potential  for
   40      such widespread risk of exposure; or (iii) any other event or condi-
   41      tion determined by the commissioner to constitute an imminent threat
   42      to public health.
   43    Nothing  in  this  paragraph shall be deemed to prevent all or part of
   44      such medicaid savings allocation plan from  taking  effect  retroac-
   45      tively  to  the extent permitted by the federal centers for medicare
   46      and medicaid services.
   47    In accordance with the medicaid savings allocation plan,  the  commis-
   48      sioner of the department of health shall reduce department of health
   49      state  funds  medicaid spending by the amount of the projected over-
   50      spending through, actions including, but not limited to modifying or
   51      suspending reimbursement methods, including but not limited  to  all
   52      fees,  premium  levels  and  rates  of  payment, notwithstanding any

   10    The  department  of  health  shall  prepare a monthly report that sets
   11      forth: (a) known and projected department of health medicaid expend-
   12      itures as described in subdivision 1 of this  section,  and  factors
   13      that  could  result in medicaid disbursements for the relevant state
   14      fiscal year to exceed the projected department of health state funds
   15      disbursements in the  enacted  budget  financial  plan  pursuant  to
   16      subdivision  3  of  section  23  of the state finance law, including
   17      spending increases or decreases  due  to:  enrollment  fluctuations,
   18      rate  changes,  utilization  changes,  MRT investments, and shift of
   19      beneficiaries to managed care; and variations  in  offline  medicaid
   20      payments;  and  (b)  the  actions  taken  to  implement any medicaid
   21      savings allocation plan implemented pursuant  to  subdivision  4  of
   22      this  section,  including  information concerning the impact of such
   23      actions on each category of service and each  geographic  region  of
   24      the  state. Each such monthly report shall be provided to the chairs
   25      of the senate finance and the assembly ways and means committees and
   26      shall be posted on the department of health's website  in  a  timely
   27      manner.
   28    For  the  purpose of making payments, the money hereby appropriated is

   22      through March 31, 2015, shall not exceed $17,082,871,000  except  as
   23      provided  below and state share medicaid spending, in the aggregate,
   24      for the period April 1, 2015 through [March 31] SEPTEMBER 15,  2016,
   25      shall  not  exceed $17,937,867,000, but in no event shall department

   27      through  [March  31]  SEPTEMBER  15,  2016  exceed   $35,020,738,000
   28      provided,  however,  such  aggregate  limits  may be adjusted by the
   29      director of the budget to account for any changes in  the  New  York
   30      state  federal  medical  assistance  percentage  amount  established
   31      pursuant to the federal social security act, increases  in  provider
   32      revenues,  reductions in local social services district payments for
   33      medical assistance administration and beginning April  1,  2012  the
   34      operational  costs  of  the  New  York state medical indemnity fund,
   35      pursuant to a chapter establishing such fund. Such  projections  may
   36      be  adjusted  by the director of the budget to account for increased
   37      or expedited department of health state funds medicaid  expenditures
   38      as  a  result  of  a  natural or other type of disaster, including a
   39      governmental declaration of emergency. The director of  the  budget,
   40      in  consultation  with  the  commissioner of health, shall assess on
   41      monthly basis known and projected medicaid expenditures by  category
   42      of  service  and  by geographic region, as determined by the commis-
   43      sioner of health, incurred both prior  to  and  subsequent  to  such
   44      assessment  for  each such period, and if the director of the budget
   45      determines that such expenditures are  expected  to  cause  medicaid
   46      spending  for  such  period  to exceed the aggregate limit specified
   47      herein for such period, the state medicaid director, in consultation
   48      with the director of the budget  and  the  commissioner  of  health,
   49      shall  develop  a  medicaid  savings  allocation  plan to limit such
   50      spending to the aggregate limit specified herein for such period.

    1    Such medicaid savings allocation plan shall be designed, to reduce the
    2      expenditures authorized by the appropriations herein  in  compliance
    3      with  the  following  guidelines:  (1)  reductions  shall be made in
    4      compliance with applicable federal law, including the provisions  of
    5      the  Patient  Protection  and  Affordable  Care  Act, Public Law No.
    6      111-148, and the Health Care and  Education  Reconciliation  Act  of
    7      2010,  Public  Law  No. 111-152 (collectively "Affordable Care Act")
    8      and any subsequent amendments  thereto  or  regulations  promulgated
    9      thereunder;  (2)  reductions shall be made in a manner that complies
   10      with the state medicaid plan approved by  the  federal  centers  for
   11      medicare  and medicaid services, provided, however, that the commis-
   12      sioner of health is authorized to submit any state plan amendment or
   13      seek other federal approval, including waiver authority,  to  imple-
   14      ment  the  provisions  of  the medicaid savings allocation plan that
   15      meets the other criteria set forth herein; (3) reductions  shall  be
   16      made  in a manner that maximizes federal financial participation, to
   17      the extent practicable,  including  any  federal  financial  partic-
   18      ipation that is available or is reasonably expected to become avail-
   19      able,  in  the  discretion of the commissioner, under the Affordable
   20      Care Act; (4) reductions shall be made uniformly among categories of
   21      services and geographic regions of the state, to the extent  practi-
   22      cable,  and shall be made uniformly within a category of service, to
   23      the extent practicable, except  where  the  commissioner  determines
   24      that  there are sufficient grounds for non-uniformity, including but
   25      not limited to:  the extent to which specific categories of services
   26      contributed to department of health medicaid state funds spending in
   27      excess of the limits specified herein; the need to  maintain  safety
   28      net  services  in underserved communities; or the potential benefits
   29      of pursuing innovative payment models contemplated by the Affordable
   30      Care Act, in which case such grounds shall be set forth in the medi-
   31      caid savings allocation plan; and (5) reductions shall be made in  a
   32      manner  that does not unnecessarily create administrative burdens to
   33      medicaid applicants and recipients or providers.
   34    The commissioner shall seek the input of the legislature, as  well  as
   35      organizations  representing  health care providers, consumers, busi-
   36      nesses, workers, health insurers, and others  with  relevant  exper-
   37      tise,  in  developing  such medicaid savings allocation plan, to the
   38      extent that all or part of such  plan,  in  the  discretion  of  the
   39      commissioner,  is  likely  to  have a material impact on the overall
   40      medicaid program, particular categories  of  service  or  particular
   41      geographic regions of the state.
   42    (a)  The  commissioner shall post the medicaid savings allocation plan
   43      on the department of health's  website  and  shall  provide  written
   44      copies  of  such  plan  to  the chairs of the senate finance and the
   45      assembly ways and means committees at least 30 days before the  date
   46      on which implementation is expected to begin.
   47    (b)  The  commissioner may revise the medicaid savings allocation plan
   48      subsequent to the provisions of notice and prior  to  implementation
   49      but  need  provide a new notice pursuant to subparagraph (i) of this
   50      paragraph only  if  the  commissioner  determines,  in  his  or  her
   51      discretion, that such revisions materially alter the plan.

    1    Notwithstanding  the  provisions  of  paragraphs  (a)  and (b) of this
    2      subdivision, the commissioner need not seek the input  described  in
    3      paragraph  (a)  of  this  subdivision  or provide notice pursuant to
    4      paragraph (b) of this paragraph if, in the discretion of the commis-
    5      sioner,  expedited  development  and  implementation  of  a medicaid
    6      savings allocation plan is necessary due to a public health emergen-
    7      cy.
    8    For purposes of this section, a public health emergency is defined as:
    9      (i) a disaster, natural or otherwise, that  significantly  increases
   10      the  immediate  need  for  health  care  personnel in an area of the
   11      state; (ii) an event or condition that creates a widespread risk  of
   12      exposure  to  a  serious  communicable disease, or the potential for
   13      such widespread risk of exposure; or (iii) any other event or condi-
   14      tion determined by the commissioner to constitute an imminent threat
   15      to public health.
   16    Nothing in this paragraph shall be deemed to prevent all  or  part  of
   17      such  medicaid  savings  allocation plan from taking effect retroac-
   18      tively to the extent permitted by the federal centers  for  medicare
   19      and medicaid services.
   20    In  accordance  with the medicaid savings allocation plan, the commis-
   21      sioner of the department of health shall reduce department of health
   22      state funds medicaid spending by the amount of the  projected  over-
   23      spending through, actions including, but not limited to modifying or
   24      suspending  reimbursement  methods, including but not limited to all
   25      fees, premium levels  and  rates  of  payment,  notwithstanding  any
   26      provision  of law that sets a specific amount or methodology for any
   27      such payments or rates of payment; modifying medicaid program  bene-
   28      fits;  seeking  all  necessary federal approvals, including, but not
   29      limited to waivers, waiver amendments; and  suspending  time  frames
   30      for notice, approval or certification of rate requirements, notwith-
   31      standing  any  provision of law, rule or regulation to the contrary,
   32      including but not limited to sections 2807 and 3614  of  the  public
   33      health  law,  section  18  of  chapter 2 of the laws of 1988, and 18
   34      NYCRR 505.14(h).
   35    The department of health shall prepare  a  monthly  report  that  sets
   36      forth: (a) known and projected department of health medicaid expend-
   37      itures  as  described  in subdivision 1 of this section, and factors
   38      that could result in medicaid disbursements for the  relevant  state
   39      fiscal year to exceed the projected department of health state funds
   40      disbursements  in  the  enacted  budget  financial  plan pursuant to
   41      subdivision 3 of section 23 of  the  state  finance  law,  including
   42      spending  increases  or  decreases  due to: enrollment fluctuations,
   43      rate changes, utilization changes, MRT  investments,  and  shift  of
   44      beneficiaries  to  managed  care; and variations in offline medicaid
   45      payments; and (b)  the  actions  taken  to  implement  any  medicaid
   46      savings  allocation  plan  implemented  pursuant to subdivision 4 of
   47      this section, including information concerning the  impact  of  such
   48      actions  on  each  category of service and each geographic region of
   49      the state. Each such monthly report shall be provided to the  chairs
   50      of the senate finance and the assembly ways and means committees and
   51      shall  be  posted  on the department of health's website in a timely
   52      manner.
