BILL NUMBER:S4777 TITLE OF BILL: An act making an appropriation to the office for people with developmental disabilities for the purpose of providing additional services and expenses for community programs for people with developmental disabilities Summary of provisions: This bill appropriates $90 million or such amount thereof as may be necessary for the purpose of funding OPWDD nonprofit services. The amount of the appropriation shall be based on a recommendation developed by the workgroup appointed pursuant to chapter 53 of the laws of 2013. The workgroup shall develop its recommendation after evaluating the extent to which the savings plan it developed pursuant to budget language restores the $90 million reduction enacted in the final budget. To the extent that funding falls short of fully restoring the $90 million reduction the director of the budget shall deposit sufficient funds to make up for such shortfall to the credit of the general fund for the purpose of funding services through OPWDD. Justification: The final FY 13-14 budget for not-for-profit services to the Office of People with Developmental Disabilities was cut by a state share amount of $90 million or 4.5% With added federal funds this will amount to a $180 million reduction. Advocates, people with developmental disabilities and their families

GOLDEN -- read twice and ordered printed, and when printed to be committed to the Committee on Finance AN ACT making an appropriation to the office for people with develop- mental disabilities for the purpose of providing additional services and expenses for community programs for people with developmental disabilities THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, REPRESENTED IN SENATE AND ASSEM- BLY, DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. The sum of ninety million dollars ($90,000,000), or so much thereof as may be necessary, is hereby appropriated to the office for people with developmental disabilities out of any moneys in the state treasury in the general fund, not otherwise appropriated, and made imme- diately available, for the purposes of this act: The amount of such monies necessary shall be determined by the commis- sioner of developmental disabilities and director of the budget and shall be based on a recommendation developed by the workgroup appointed pursuant to chapter 53 of the laws of 2013. The workgroup shall develop its recommendation upon evaluating the extent to which the savings plan it developed pursuant to budget language included in chapter 53 of the laws of 2013 maintains rates of payment for Medicaid services at levels no less than those in effect on March 31, 2013 and reimbursement levels for any other OPWDD funded programs and services in effect on March 31, 2013. However to the extent that any additional federal funds or other funds are made available for this purpose those funds may be used to offset the requirement to use the full ninety million dollars. To the extent that funding falls short of the amount necessary to fulfill the proposes of this act, no later than December 31, 2013 the director of the budget shall deposit sufficient funds to make up for such shortfall to the credit of the general fund.

Statement of legislative intent. The legislature hereby finds that providing people with developmental disabilities high quality care is a critical state responsibility as affirmed in public policy including federal and state court cases and legislation. Furthermore the legislature recognizes that critical reductions in state funding were enacted during the fiscal year 2013-2014 budget which will, if not restored, erode the quality of care for these vulnerable individuals over time and sabotage state and federal mandates to achieve transforma- tional objectives and transition to managed care. The legislature also recognizes that, in accordance with budget language enacted as part of chapter 53 of the laws of 2013, substantial and laudable progress has been made by the executive working in cooperation with people with developmental disabilities, their families and providers toward finding savings to minimize the impact of fiscal year 2013-2014 funding reductions. However, it is not sufficiently clear to what extent the impact of these cuts have been minimized. Therefore it is the intent of the legislature to ensure that the fiscal year 2013-2014 reduction be fully restored and savings generated which are attributable to program reductions, administrative reductions, more efficient operations or appropriate lower cost care stay within the office for people with EXPLANATION--Matter in ITALICS (underscored) is new; matter in brackets [ ] is old law to be omitted.
