Notwithstanding any inconsist- ent provision of law, including section 1 of part C of chapter 57 of the laws of 2006, as amended by section 1 of part I of chapter 60 of the laws of 2014, for the period commencing on April 1, 2016 and ending March 31, 2017 the commissioner shall apply a cost of living adjustment for the purpose of establishing rates of payments, contracts or any other form of reimbursement. Within the amounts appropriated herein, state reimbursement to each social services district for services identified herein that are otherwise reimbursable by the state from April 1, 2016 through March 31, 2017 shall be limited to a district allocation, hereinafter referred to as the district's block grant allocation. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, such block grant allocation shall be based, in part, on each district's claims for such costs, adjusted by the applicable cost allocation methodology and net of any retroactive payments for the 12 month period ending June 30, 2015 that are submitted on or before January 4, 2016 and, in part, on such other factors as determined by the office of children and family services and approved by the direc- tor of the budget.

Any claims submitted by a social services district for reimbursement for a particular state fiscal year for which the social services district does not receive state or federal reimbursement during that state fiscal year may not be claimed against that district's block grant apportionment for the next state fiscal year. The office of children and family services, with the approval of the director of the budget, may reduce a district's block grant allocation by the state share decrease related to federal retroactive reimbursement for such foster care services identified herein. The office, with the approval of the director of the budget, may reduce a district's block grant allocation by the state share of disallowances or sanctions taken against the district pursuant to the social services law or federal law. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the state shall not be responsible for reimbursing a social services district and a district shall not seek state reimburse- ment for any portion of any state disal- lowance or sanction taken against the social services district, or any federal disallowance attributable to final federal agency decisions or to settlement made, on or after July 1, 1995, when such disallow- ance or sanction results from the failure of the social services district to comply with federal or state requirements, including, but not limited to, failure to document eligibility for federal or state funds in the case record; provided, howev- er, if the office determines that any federal disallowance for services provided between January 1, 1999 and May 31, 1999 results solely from the late enactment of the state legislation implementing the federal adoption and safe families act, the state shall be solely responsible for the full amount of the disallowance or sanction; provided, further, however, this provision shall be deemed to apply both prospectively and retroactively regardless 258 12653-02-6 DEPARTMENT OF FAMILY ASSISTANCE OFFICE OF CHILDREN AND FAMILY SERVICES AID TO LOCALITIES 2016-17 of whether such sanctions or disallowances are for services provided or claims made prior to or after April 1, 2016. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, any federal disallowance resulting from a federal title IV-E eligibility review or audit that uses extrapolated statistic techniques shall be passed along by the state to any and all social services districts that the office of children and family services has determined have not complied with the title IV-E eligibility requirements or have not taken the neces- sary actions to ensure compliance with such requirements including, but not limited to, failing to: assess and fully document all the criteria and have readily available all the necessary documents to establish and continue title IV-E eligi- bility for all title IV-E eligible chil- dren within the required time frames; claim title IV-E funding only for cases that meet all of the title IV-E eligibil- ity criteria; and fully implement the social services payment system on or before April 1, 2005 for all direct and voluntary agency foster care services. Notwithstanding any law to the contrary, the office of children and family services shall impose on social services districts any federal disallowance issued against the state as a result of a federal title IV-E secondary eligibility review regard- less of the date the children may have entered foster care, the date the eligi- bility or payment errors occurred, or the filing date of any federal claims for reimbursement; provided, however, that the state shall be responsible for the disal- lowed costs and expenditures related to the placement of children in a facility operated by the office of children and family services, which shall be determined in the same manner as the disallowed costs and expenditures for social services districts other than the city of New York. In order to reimburse the federal govern- ment for the full amount of any disallow- ance imposed on the state by the federal administration for children and families within the timeframes necessary to avoid 259 12653-02-6 DEPARTMENT OF FAMILY ASSISTANCE OFFICE OF CHILDREN AND FAMILY SERVICES AID TO LOCALITIES 2016-17 any potential interest payments on such amount, the office of children and family services is authorized to immediately offset funds otherwise due to each district for a pro rata share of the total disallowed costs based on the percentage of applicable federal title IV-E claims made by that district for the relevant time period as compared to the total applicable statewide title IV-E claims. The amount of the offset against each district will be adjusted, if necessary, upon completion of the disallowance allo- cation process. The final allocation of the amount of any federal disallowance resulting from a title IV-E secondary eligibility review shall be allocated among the districts so that each district shall be responsible for the amount attributable to each of the district's children or cases that are determined by the federal review to be unallowable. Each district shall also be responsible for a portion of the federal extrapolated disal- lowance amount based on the relative error rate for the district. The city of New York's error rate will be based on the federal sample and federal statistics. For all social services districts other than the city of New York, the error rate will be based on a review conducted by the district of a sample of children and/or cases determined by the office of children and family services and a re-review of a sub-sample by the office of those children and/or cases determined by the office. The office of children and family services will determine what is reasonable in establishing the size of the sample and sub-sample for each district. The office of children and family services shall notify each social services district of the sample of children and/or cases from the federal audit period that the social services district must review. Any child or case from the social services district that was included in the federal sample will automatically be included in the social services district's review sample and the determination made at the federal review regarding that child or case will 260 12653-02-6 DEPARTMENT OF FAMILY ASSISTANCE OFFICE OF CHILDREN AND FAMILY SERVICES AID TO LOCALITIES 2016-17 govern for the purposes of the social services district's review. The social services district must complete and submit the results of its review to the office of children and family services within 60 days of receipt of the sample. The error rate for the district will be based on the findings of the district's review and the office of children and family services' re-review. If a social services district does not complete its review within 60 days of receiving the sample from the office of children and family services, the office of children and family services shall assign an error rate to the social services district based on the relative percentage of the district's applicable title IV-E claims for the relevant period as compared to applicable statewide title IV-E claims for that period and other circumstances that the office of children and family services may consider in order to allocate 100 percent of the federal disallowance. The office of children and family services shall apply each social services district's error rate to the total amount of the district's applicable title IV-E claims including associated administrative expenses. The resulting dollar amounts for all of the social services districts will be summed to derive the total amount of title IV-E claims deemed to be in error statewide. To establish a disallowance percentage for each social services district, the amount of the district's title IV-E claims deemed to be in error will be divided by the amount of statewide title IV-E claims deemed to be in error. The resulting disallowance percentage for each district will be applied to the entire title IV-E extrapolated disallowance calculated by the federal review to determine the amount of the extrapolated disallowance for which the district is responsible. Each district will be credited for the amount already disallowed for any individual children or cases found to be in error during the federal review. The exclusive appeal rights for the review of the amount of the federal disallowance assigned to each 261 12653-02-6 DEPARTMENT OF FAMILY ASSISTANCE OFFICE OF CHILDREN AND FAMILY SERVICES AID TO LOCALITIES 2016-17 social services district shall be pursuant to article 78 of the civil practice laws and rules; provided, however, that in any such action all of the social services districts shall be joined as necessary parties and the venue of any such action shall be in Rensselaer county. Any social services district that fails to complete its sample review in the required time frames shall have no right to appeal and shall not be a necessary party to any action brought by another social services district. The money hereby appropriated is to be available for payment of state aid hereto- fore accrued or hereafter to accrue to municipalities. Subject to the approval of the director of the budget, the money hereby appropriated shall be available to the office net of disallowances, refunds, reimbursements, and credits.

Notwithstanding the provisions of any other law to the contrary, the office of chil- dren and family services may, on behalf of social services districts, make payments to foster boarding homes paid directly by social services districts by direct depos- it or debit card. Local social services districts shall reimburse the office for the costs of administering such direct deposit or debit card payments.
