BACKGROUND:
Welfare &Institution Code Section 16800 requires that each local health
jurisdiction annually submit a "County Health Services Plan and Budget"
to the State Department of Health Services. Additionally, counties
receiving Cigarette & Tobacco Products Tax funds (Proposition 99) must
provide related expenditure information with the Plan and Budget
submission.
On October 8, 1991, the Board authorized the Health Services Director
to execute and submit to the State Department of Health Services, the
application for California Healthcare for Indigents Program (CHIP)
funds. The monies are utilized to partially reimburse hospitals,
physicians and other providers for uncompensated care costs.
Contained within the CHIP application were assurances made by the
County regarding the use of these funds. The "County Health Services
Plan and Budget" specifies the procedural aspects of implementing those
assurances.
The "County Health Services Plan & Budget" and Standard Agreement"
are the same documents that were required by the State prior to
Realignment. The difference is in the funding mechanism, with previous
AB-8 and MISP programs now funded through Realignment funds and
the CHIP program funded directly from the State.
