COST AVOIDANCE PROGRAM AGREEMENT
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION(S):
Authorize the Chair of the Board of Supervisors to sign the attached County
Subvention Program Certificate of Compliance and the Medi-Cal Cost
Avoidance Program Agreement as administered by the California Depart-
ment of Veterans Affairs (CDVA).
FISCAL IMPACT:
The above agreements enhance the county general fund. As of this date,
CDVA has not provided estimates for Subvention and Medi-Cal Cost Avoid-
ance for FY 2007-2008. For FY 2006-2007, our department received
$69,207 in Subvention and $8,353 in Medi-Cal Cost Avoidance per the
Military and Veterans Code of California, sections 972, 972.1 and 972.5
respectively. It is anticipated that FY 2007-2008 revenue will be, at a
minimum, consistent with FY 2006-2007 revenue received.
BACKGROUND/REASON(S) FOR RECOMMENDATION(S):
CDVA administers the above two revenue programs per California Code of
Regulations, Title 12, Subchapter 4. CDVA conducts annual audits of our
operation to determine if our workload is consistent with reported workload
activity.
