SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RMCOMMENDATION(S) 04 BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
I. RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approve and authorize the Chairman to execute on behalf of the
County, Standard Agreement #29-7.21 with the State Department of
Health Services for claiming federal reimbursement for refugee and
Cuban/Haitian entrant medical assistance costs for the period
October 1, 1987 through September 30, 1988.
II. FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Under this document, after execution by the State, the County will
be reimbursed 1000 of the actual costs of medical assistance to
eligible refugees and Cuban/Haitian entrants during federal fiscal
year 1987-88 under the Federal. Refugee Resettlement Program. The
amount of reimbursement depends upon the number and type of
services received by eligible refugees and is expected to be
between $10, 000 and $15, 000. No County match is required.
III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONSZBACKGROUND:
At the time these documents were received, the Department did not
expect to be able to receive any funding under this program for
federal fiscal year 1987-88 . Recently the Department determined
that it may be able to collect from $10, 000 to $15, 000 for services
provided to refugees during federal fiscal year 1987-88 . The
attached standard agreement must be signed by the Board and
returned to the State before the Department can submit claims to
the State for services provided to refugees during that time
period.
4Eligible refugees and Cuban/Haitian entrants are defined as those
individuals who have resided in the United States for more than 18
months, but less than thirty-two months, and who qualify for
medical services from the County under Welfare and Institutions
Code, Section 17000.
The Board Chairman should sign four copies of the agreement, three
of which should then be returned to the Contracts and Grants Unit
for submission to the State Department of Health Serv' es.
