Social services districts must adjust the amount of payments made for care provided by congregate care and foster boarding home programs and to foster parents to reflect the cost of living adjustments in the manner specified by the office. Each authorized agency operating a congregate care or foster boarding home program in New York state for which the office sets a maximum state aid rate pursuant to section 398-a of the social services law or section 4003 or 4405 of the education law shall submit, at the time and in a manner to be determined by the office, a written certification, attesting that the funds received for the continuation of the cost of living adjust- ment to the maximum state aid rate that became effective April 1, 2008 for that program will be or were used solely in accordance with the requirements of the cost of living adjustment established by the office. 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, 2015 and ending March 31, 2016 the commissioner shall not apply any cost of living adjust- ment 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, 2015 through March 31, 2016 shall be limited to a district allocation, hereinafter referred to as the 234 12553-02-5 DEPARTMENT OF FAMILY ASSISTANCE OFFICE OF CHILDREN AND FAMILY SERVICES AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 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, 2014 that are submitted on or before January 2, 2015 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 portion of a social services district's allocation from funds appropriated herein not claimed by such district during the state fiscal year may be used by such district for expenditures on preventive services provided pursuant to section 409-a of the social services law, independent living services and aftercare services provided pursuant to regulations of the department of family assistance, claimed by such district during the next state fiscal year up to the amount remaining from the district's foster care block grant allocation, provided however, that any claims for such services during the next state fiscal year in excess of such amount shall be subject to 62 percent state reimbursement exclu- sive of any federal funds made available for such purposes, in accordance with directives of the department of family assistance and subject to the approval of the director 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 235 12553-02-5 DEPARTMENT OF FAMILY ASSISTANCE OFFICE OF CHILDREN AND FAMILY SERVICES AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 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 of whether such sanctions or disallowances are for services provided or claims made prior to or after April 1, 2015. 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- 236 12553-02-5 DEPARTMENT OF FAMILY ASSISTANCE OFFICE OF CHILDREN AND FAMILY SERVICES AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 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 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 237 12553-02-5 DEPARTMENT OF FAMILY ASSISTANCE OFFICE OF CHILDREN AND FAMILY SERVICES AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 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 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 238 12553-02-5 DEPARTMENT OF FAMILY ASSISTANCE OFFICE OF CHILDREN AND FAMILY SERVICES AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 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 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 239 12553-02-5 DEPARTMENT OF FAMILY ASSISTANCE OFFICE OF CHILDREN AND FAMILY SERVICES AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 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 240 12553-02-5 DEPARTMENT OF FAMILY ASSISTANCE OFFICE OF CHILDREN AND FAMILY SERVICES AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 social services districts, make payments to foster boarding homes paid directly by social services districts by direct depos- it or debit card.

Social services districts must adjust the amount of payments made for care provided by congregate care and foster boarding home programs and to foster parents to reflect the cost of living adjustments in the manner specified by the office. 292 12553-02-5 DEPARTMENT OF FAMILY ASSISTANCE OFFICE OF CHILDREN AND FAMILY SERVICES AID TO LOCALITIES - REAPPROPRIATIONS 2015-16 Each authorized agency operating a congregate care or foster board- ing home program in New York state for which the office sets a maxi- mum state aid rate pursuant to section 398-a of the social services law or section 4003 or 4405 of the education law shall submit, at the time and in a manner to be determined by the office, a written certification, attesting that the funds received for the continua- tion of the cost of living adjustment to the maximum state aid rate that became effective April 1, 2008 for that program will be or were used solely in accordance with the requirements of the cost of living adjustment established by the office. Notwithstanding any inconsistent provision of law, including section 1 of part C of chapter 57 of the laws of 2006, as amended by section 1 of part N of chapter 56 of the laws of 2013, for the period commencing on April 1, 2014 and ending March 31, 2015 the commissioner shall not apply any 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, 2014 through March 31, 2015 shall be limited to a district allocation, hereinafter referred to as the district's block grant allocation. Notwithstand- ing 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 retro- active payments for the 12 month period ending June 30, 2013 that are submitted on or before January 2, 2014 and, in part, on such other factors as determined by the office of children and family services and approved by the director of the budget. Any portion of a social services district's allocation from funds appropriated herein not claimed by such district during the state fiscal year may be used by such district for expenditures on preventive services provided pursuant to section 409-a of the social services law, inde- pendent living services and aftercare services provided pursuant to regulations of the department of family assistance, claimed by such district during the next state fiscal year up to the amount remain- ing from the district's foster care block grant allocation, provided however, that any claims for such services during the next state fiscal year in excess of such amount shall be subject to 62 percent state reimbursement exclusive of any federal funds made available for such purposes, in accordance with directives of the department of family assistance and subject to the approval of the director 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 allo- cation by the state share decrease related to federal retroactive reimbursement for such foster care services identified herein. The 293 12553-02-5 DEPARTMENT OF FAMILY ASSISTANCE OFFICE OF CHILDREN AND FAMILY SERVICES AID TO LOCALITIES - REAPPROPRIATIONS 2015-16 office, with the approval of the director of the budget, may reduce a district's block grant allocation by the state share of disallow- ances 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 reimbursement for any portion of any state disallowance 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 disallowance or sanction results from the failure of the social services district to comply with federal or state require- ments, including, but not limited to, failure to document eligibil- ity 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 sole- ly 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 of whether such sanctions or disallowances are for services provided or claims made prior to or after April 1, 2014. 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 eligibility for all title IV-E eligible children within the required time frames; claim title IV-E funding only for cases that meet all of the title IV-E eligibility 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 feder- al disallowance issued against the state as a result of a federal title IV-E secondary eligibility review regardless of the date the children may have entered foster care, the date the eligibility or payment errors occurred, or the filing date of any federal claims for reimbursement; provided, however, that the state shall be responsible for the disallowed costs and expenditures related to the placement of children in a facility operated by the office of chil- dren 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 government for the full amount of any disallowance imposed 294 12553-02-5 DEPARTMENT OF FAMILY ASSISTANCE OFFICE OF CHILDREN AND FAMILY SERVICES AID TO LOCALITIES - REAPPROPRIATIONS 2015-16 on the state by the federal administration for children and families within the timeframes necessary to avoid 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 allocation process. The final allo- cation 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 disallowance 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 chil- dren and family services will determine what is reasonable in estab- lishing 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 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 disallow- ance. 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 admin- istrative expenses. The resulting dollar amounts for all of the 295 12553-02-5 DEPARTMENT OF FAMILY ASSISTANCE OFFICE OF CHILDREN AND FAMILY SERVICES AID TO LOCALITIES - REAPPROPRIATIONS 2015-16 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 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 Rens- selaer 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 heretofore 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 disal- lowances, refunds, reimbursements, and credits.

Local social services districts shall reimburse the office for the costs of administering such direct deposit or debit card payments.

Such projections may be adjusted by the director of the budget to account for increased or expedited department of health state funds medicaid expenditures as a result of a natural or other type of disaster, including a governmental declaration of emergency. The director of the budget, in consultation with the commissioner of health, shall assess on a monthly basis known and projected medicaid expenditures by catego- ry of service and by geographic region, as determined by the commissioner of health, incurred both prior to and subsequent to such assessment for each such period, and if the director of the budget determines that such expenditures are expected to cause medicaid spending for such period to exceed the aggregate limit specified here- in for such period, the state medicaid director, in consultation with the direc- tor of the budget and the commissioner of health, shall develop a medicaid savings allocation plan to limit such spending to the aggregate limit specified herein for such period. Such medicaid savings allocation plan shall be designed, to reduce the expenditures authorized by the appropriations herein in compliance with the following guidelines: (1) reductions shall be made in compliance with applicable federal law, including the provisions of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, Public Law No. 111- 148, and the Health Care and Education 461 12553-02-5 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 Reconciliation Act of 2010, Public Law No. 111-152 (collectively "Affordable Care Act") and any subsequent amendments there- to or regulations promulgated thereunder; (2) reductions shall be made in a manner that complies with the state medicaid plan approved by the federal centers for medi- care and medicaid services, provided, however, that the commissioner of health is authorized to submit any state plan amendment or seek other federal approval, including waiver authority, to implement the provisions of the medicaid savings allocation plan that meets the other criteria set forth herein; (3) reductions shall be made in a manner that maximizes federal financial participation, to the extent practicable, including any federal financial participation that is available or is reasonably expected to become avail- able, in the discretion of the commission- er, under the Affordable Care Act; (4) reductions shall be made uniformly among categories of services and geographic regions of the state, to the extent prac- ticable, and shall be made uniformly with- in a category of service, to the extent practicable, except where the commissioner determines that there are sufficient grounds for non-uniformity, including but not limited to: the extent to which specific categories of services contrib- uted to department of health medicaid state funds spending in excess of the limits specified herein; the need to main- tain safety net services in underserved communities; or the potential benefits of pursuing innovative payment models contem- plated by the Affordable Care Act, in which case such grounds shall be set forth in the medicaid savings allocation plan; and (5) reductions shall be made in a manner that does not unnecessarily create administrative burdens to medicaid appli- cants and recipients or providers. The commissioner shall seek the input of the legislature, as well as organizations representing health care providers, consumers, businesses, workers, health insurers, and others with relevant exper- tise, in developing such medicaid savings allocation plan, to the extent that all or 462 12553-02-5 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 part of such plan, in the discretion of the commissioner, is likely to have a material impact on the overall medicaid program, particular categories of service or particular geographic regions of the state. (a) The commissioner shall post the medicaid savings allocation plan on the department of health's website and shall provide written copies of such plan to the chairs of the senate finance and the assembly ways and means committees at least 30 days before the date on which implementation is expected to begin. (b) The commissioner may revise the medicaid savings allocation plan subsequent to the provisions of notice and prior to imple- mentation but need provide a new notice pursuant to subparagraph (i) of this para- graph only if the commissioner determines, in his or her discretion, that such revisions materially alter the plan. Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs (a) and (b) of this subdivision, the commissioner need not seek the input described in paragraph (a) of this subdi- vision or provide notice pursuant to para- graph (b) of this subdivision if, in the discretion of the commissioner, expedited development and implementation of a medi- caid savings allocation plan is necessary due to a public health emergency. For purposes of this section, a public health emergency is defined as: (i) a disaster, natural or otherwise, that significantly increases the immediate need for health care personnel in an area of the state; (ii) an event or condition that creates a widespread risk of exposure to a serious communicable disease, or the potential for such widespread risk of exposure; or (iii) any other event or condition determined by the commissioner to constitute an imminent threat to public health. Nothing in this paragraph shall be deemed to prevent all or part of such medicaid savings allocation plan from taking effect retroactively to the extent permitted by the federal centers for medicare and medi- caid services. 463 12553-02-5 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 In accordance with the medicaid savings allocation plan, the commissioner of the department of health shall reduce depart- ment of health state funds medicaid spend- ing by the amount of the projected over- spending through, actions including, but not limited to modifying or suspending reimbursement methods, including but not limited to all fees, premium levels and rates of payment, notwithstanding any provision of law that sets a specific amount or methodology for any such payments or rates of payment; modifying medicaid program benefits; seeking all necessary federal approvals, including, but not limited to waivers, waiver amend- ments; and suspending time frames for notice, approval or certification of rate requirements, notwithstanding any provision of law, rule or regulation to the contrary, including but not limited to sections 2807 and 3614 of the public health law, section 18 of chapter 2 of the laws of 1988, and 18 NYCRR 505.14(h). The department of health shall prepare a monthly report that sets forth: (a) known and projected department of health medi- caid expenditures as described in subdivi- sion (1) of this section, and factors that could result in medicaid disbursements for the relevant state fiscal year to exceed the projected department of health state funds disbursements in the enacted budget financial plan pursuant to subdivision 3 of section 23 of the state finance law, including spending increases or decreases due to: enrollment fluctuations, rate changes, utilization changes, MRT invest- ments, and shift of beneficiaries to managed care; and variations in offline medicaid payments; and (b) the actions taken to implement any medicaid savings allocation plan implemented pursuant to subdivision (4) of this section, including information concerning the impact of such actions on each category of service and each geographic region of the state. Each such monthly report shall be provided to the chairs of the senate finance and the assembly ways and means committees and shall be posted on the department of health's website in a timely manner. 464 12553-02-5 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 The money hereby appropriated is available for payment of aid heretofore accrued to municipalities, and to providers of medical services pursuant to section 367-b of the social services law, and shall be available to the department net of disal- lowances, refunds, reimbursements, and credits.

The commissioner shall seek the input of the legislature, as well as organizations representing health care providers, consumers, businesses, workers, health insurers, and others with relevant exper- tise, in developing such medicaid savings allocation plan, to the extent that all or part of such plan, in the discretion of the commissioner, is likely to have a material impact on the overall medicaid program, particular categories of service 472 12553-02-5 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 or particular geographic regions of the states. (a) The commissioner shall post the medicaid savings allocation plan on the department of health's website and shall provide written copies of such plan to the chairs of the senate finance and the assembly ways and means committees at least 30 days before the date on which implementation is expected to begin. (b) The commissioner may revise the medicaid savings allocation plan subsequent to the provisions of notice and prior to imple- mentation but need provide a new notice pursuant to subparagraph (i) of this para- graph only if the commissioner determines, in his or her discretion, that such revisions materially alter the plan. Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs (a) and (b) of this subdivision, the commissioner need not seek the input described in paragraph (a) of this subdi- vision or provide notice pursuant to para- graph (b) of this subdivision if, in the discretion of the commissioner, expedited development and implementation of a medi- caid savings allocation plan is necessary due to a public health emergency. For purposes of this section, a public health emergency is defined as: (i) a disaster, natural or otherwise, that significantly increases the immediate need for health care personnel in an area of the state; (ii) an event or condition that creates a widespread risk of exposure to a serious communicable disease, or the potential for such widespread risk of exposure; or (iii) any other event or condition determined by the commissioner to constitute an imminent threat to public health. Nothing in this paragraph shall be deemed to prevent all or part of such medicaid savings allocation plan from taking effect retroactively to the extent permitted by the federal centers for medicare and medi- caid services. In accordance with the medicaid savings allocation plan, the commissioner of the department of health shall reduce depart- ment of health state funds medicaid spend- ing by the amount of the projected over- 473 12553-02-5 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 spending through, actions including, but not limited to modifying or suspending reimbursement methods, including but not limited to all fees, premium levels and rates of payment, notwithstanding any provision of law that sets a specific amount or methodology for any such payments or rates of payment; modifying or discontinuing medicaid program benefits; seeking all necessary federal approvals, including, but not limited to waivers, waiver amendments; and suspending time frames for notice, approval or certif- ication of rate requirements, notwith- standing any provision of law, rule or regulation to the contrary, including but not limited to sections 2807 and 3614 of the public health law, section 18 of chap- ter 2 of the laws of 1988, and 18 NYCRR 505.14(h). The department of health shall prepare a monthly report that sets forth: (a) known and projected department of health medi- caid expenditures as described in subdivi- sion (1) of this section, and factors that could result in medicaid disbursements for the relevant state fiscal year to exceed the projected department of health state funds disbursements in the enacted budget financial plan pursuant to subdivision 3 of section 23 of the state finance law, including spending increases or decreases due to: enrollment fluctuations, rate changes, utilization changes, MRT invest- ments, and shift of beneficiaries to managed care; and variations in offline medicaid payments; and (b) the actions taken to implement any medicaid savings allocation plan implemented pursuant to subdivision (4) of this section, including information concerning the impact of such actions on each category of service and each geographic region of the state. Each such monthly report shall be provided to the chairs of the senate finance and the assembly ways and means committees and shall be posted on the department of health's website in a timely manner.

For sole and multiple source brand name drugs, estimated acquisition cost means the average wholesale price of a prescription drug based upon the package size dispensed from, as reported by the prescription drug pricing service used by the department of health, less twenty-four percent thereof, or the wholesale acquisi- tion cost of a prescription drug based upon package size dispensed from, as reported by the prescription drug pricing service used by the department of health, minus nine percent thereof, and updated monthly by the department of health.

Where the commissioner of health finds that a drug meets at least one of these criteria, in determining whether to make 480 12553-02-5 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 the drug subject to prior authorization under the Clinical Drug Review Program, the commissioner of health shall consider whether similarly effective alternatives are available for the same disease state and the effect of that availability or lack of availability. The Drug Utilization Review Board may recommend to the commis- sioner of health that any prior authori- zation requirement imposed pursuant to this paragraph be modified, continued or removed.

The program shall provide a reasonable opportunity for the prescriber to reasonably present his or her justi- fication of prior authorization. The program will consider the additional information and the justification presented to determine whether the use of a prescription drug that is not on the preferred drug list is warranted. Notwithstanding any inconsistent provision of law, rule or regulation to the contra- ry, for the period April 1, 2015 through March 31, 2017, claims for payment of outpatient prescription drugs submitted to a Medicaid Managed Care plan by a covered entity pursuant to section 340B of the federal public health service act (42 USCA S 256b) or by such covered entity's authorized contract pharmacy shall be at such covered entity's or contract pharma- cy's actual acquisition cost for the drug.

Where the commissioner of health finds that a drug meets at least one of these criteria, in determining whether to make the drug subject to prior authorization under the Clinical Drug Review Program, the commissioner of health shall consider whether similarly effective alternatives are available for the same disease state and the effect of that availability or lack of availability. The Drug Utilization Review Board may recommend to the commis- sioner of health that any prior authori- zation requirement imposed pursuant to this paragraph be modified, continued or removed. Notwithstanding any inconsistent provision of law, rule or regulation to the contra- ry, for the period April 1, 2015 through March 31, 2017, the commissioner of the department of health may require a pharma- ceutical manufacturer to provide a minimum supplemental rebate for drugs that are eligible for state public health plan reimbursement, including such drugs as set forth in paragraph (g-1) of subdivision two of section three hundred sixty-five-a of the social services law.

In the event that the patient does not meet this criteria, the prescriber may provide additional information to the medical assistance program to justify the use of the drug. The program shall provide a reasonable opportunity for the prescriber to reasonably present his or her justi- fication of prior authorization. The program will consider the additional information and the justification presented to determine whether the use of a prescription drug that is not on the preferred drug list is warranted. Notwithstanding any inconsistent provision of law, rule or regulation to the contra- ry, for the period April 1, 2015 through March 31, 2017, claims for payment of outpatient prescription drugs submitted to a Medicaid Managed Care plan by a covered entity pursuant to section 340B of the federal public health service act (42 USCA S 256b) or by such covered entity's authorized contract pharmacy shall be at such covered entity's or contract pharma- cy's actual acquisition cost for the drug. For purposes of this paragraph, "actual acquisition cost" means the invoice price 494 12553-02-5 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 for the drug to the covered entity or the covered entity's authorized contract phar- macy, minus the amount of all discounts and other cost-reductions attributable to the drug.

Such projections may be adjusted by the director of the budget to account for increased or expedited department of health state funds medicaid expenditures as a result of a natural or other type of disaster, including a governmental declaration of emergency. The director of the budget, in consultation with the commissioner of health, shall assess on monthly basis known and project- ed medicaid expenditures by category of service and by geographic region, as determined by the commissioner of health, incurred both prior to and subsequent to such assessment for each such period, and if the director of the budget determines that such expenditures are expected to cause medicaid spending for such period to exceed the aggregate limit specified here- 498 12553-02-5 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 in for such period, the state medicaid director, in consultation with the direc- tor of the budget and the commissioner of health, shall develop a medicaid savings allocation plan to limit such spending to the aggregate limit specified herein for such period. Such medicaid savings allocation plan shall be designed, to reduce the expenditures authorized by the appropriations herein in compliance with the following guidelines: (1) reductions shall be made in compliance with applicable federal law, including the provisions of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, Public Law No. 111- 148, and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010, Public Law No. 111-152 (collectively "Affordable Care Act") and any subsequent amendments there- to or regulations promulgated thereunder; (2) reductions shall be made in a manner that complies with the state medicaid plan approved by the federal centers for medi- care and medicaid services, provided, however, that the commissioner of health is authorized to submit any state plan amendment or seek other federal approval, including waiver authority, to implement the provisions of the medicaid savings allocation plan that meets the other criteria set forth herein; (3) reductions shall be made in a manner that maximizes federal financial participation, to the extent practicable, including any federal financial participation that is available or is reasonably expected to become avail- able, in the discretion of the commission- er, under the Affordable Care Act; (4) reductions shall be made uniformly among categories of services and geographic regions of the state, to the extent prac- ticable, and shall be made uniformly with- in a category of service, to the extent practicable, except where the commissioner determines that there are sufficient grounds for non-uniformity, including but not limited to: the extent to which specific categories of services contrib- uted to department of health medicaid state funds spending in excess of the limits specified herein; the need to main- tain safety net services in underserved 499 12553-02-5 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 communities; or the potential benefits of pursuing innovative payment models contem- plated by the Affordable Care Act, in which case such grounds shall be set forth in the medicaid savings allocation plan; and (5) reductions shall be made in a manner that does not unnecessarily create administrative burdens to medicaid appli- cants and recipients or providers. The commissioner shall seek the input of the legislature, as well as organizations representing health care providers, consumers, businesses, workers, health insurers, and others with relevant exper- tise, in developing such medicaid savings allocation plan, to the extent that all or part of such plan, in the discretion of the commissioner, is likely to have a material impact on the overall medicaid program, particular categories of service or particular geographic regions of the state. (a) The commissioner shall post the medicaid savings allocation plan on the department of health's website and shall provide written copies of such plan to the chairs of the senate finance and the assembly ways and means committees at least 30 days before the date on which implementation is expected to begin. (b) The commissioner may revise the medicaid savings allocation plan subsequent to the provisions of notice and prior to imple- mentation but need provide a new notice pursuant to subparagraph (i) of this para- graph only if the commissioner determines, in his or her discretion, that such revisions materially alter the plan. Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs (a) and (b) of this subdivision, the commissioner need not seek the input described in paragraph (a) of this subdi- vision or provide notice pursuant to para- graph (b) of this subdivision if, in the discretion of the commissioner, expedited development and implementation of a medi- caid savings allocation plan is necessary due to a public health emergency. For purposes of this section, a public health emergency is defined as: (i) a disaster, natural or otherwise, that significantly increases the immediate need 500 12553-02-5 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 for health care personnel in an area of the state; (ii) an event or condition that creates a widespread risk of exposure to a serious communicable disease, or the potential for such widespread risk of exposure; or (iii) any other event or condition determined by the commissioner to constitute an imminent threat to public health.

In accordance with the medicaid savings allocation plan, the commissioner of the department of health shall reduce depart- ment of health state funds medicaid spend- ing by the amount of the projected over- spending through, actions including, but not limited to modifying or suspending reimbursement methods, including but not limited to all fees, premium levels and rates of payment, notwithstanding any provision of law that sets a specific amount or methodology for any such payments or rates of payment; modifying medicaid program benefits; seeking all necessary federal approvals, including, but not limited to waivers, waiver amend- ments; and suspending time frames for notice, approval or certification of rate requirements, notwithstanding any provision of law, rule or regulation to the contrary, including but not limited to sections 2807 and 3614 of the public health law, section 18 of chapter 2 of the laws of 1988, and 18 NYCRR 505.14(h). The department of health shall prepare a monthly report that sets forth: (a) known and projected department of health medi- caid expenditures as described in subdivi- sion (1) of this section, and factors that could result in medicaid disbursements for the relevant state fiscal year to exceed the projected department of health state funds disbursements in the enacted budget financial plan pursuant to subdivision 3 of section 23 of the state finance law, including spending increases or decreases due to: enrollment fluctuations, rate 501 12553-02-5 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 changes, utilization changes, MRT invest- ments, and shift of beneficiaries to managed care; and variations in offline medicaid payments; and (b) the actions taken to implement any medicaid savings allocation plan implemented pursuant to subdivision (4) of this section, including information concerning the impact of such actions on each category of service and each geographic region of the state. Each such monthly report shall be provided to the chairs of the senate finance and the assembly ways and means committees and shall be posted on the department of health's website in a timely manner. For the purpose of making payments to providers of medical care pursuant to section 367-b of the social services law, and for payment of state aid to munici- palities where payment systems through fiscal intermediaries are not operational, to reimburse such providers for costs attributable to the provision of care to patients eligible for medical assistance. Payments from this appropriation to gener- al hospitals related to indigent care pursuant to article 28 of the public health law respectively, when combined with federal funds for services and expenses for the medical assistance program pursuant to title XIX of the federal social security act or its succes- sor program, shall equal the amount of the funds received related to health care reform act allowances and surcharges pursuant to article 28 of the public health law and deposited to this account less any such amounts withheld pursuant to subdivision 21 of section 2807-c of the public health law.

The director of the budget, in consultation with the commissioner of health, shall assess on a monthly basis known and projected medicaid expenditures by catego- ry of service and by geographic region, as determined by the commissioner of health, incurred both prior to and subsequent to such assessment for each such period, and if the director of the budget determines that such expenditures are expected to cause medicaid spending for such period to exceed the aggregate limit specified here- in for such period, the state medicaid director, in consultation with the direc- tor of the budget and the commissioner of health, shall develop a medicaid savings allocation plan to limit such spending to 504 12553-02-5 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 the aggregate limit specified herein for such period.

The commissioner shall seek the input of the legislature, as well as organizations representing health care providers, consumers, businesses, workers, health insurers, and others with relevant exper- tise, in developing such medicaid savings allocation plan, to the extent that all or part of such plan, in the discretion of the commissioner, is likely to have a material impact on the overall medicaid program, particular categories of service or particular geographic regions of the state. (a) The commissioner shall post the medicaid savings allocation plan on the department of health's website and shall provide written copies of such plan to the chairs of the senate finance and the assembly ways and means committees at least 30 days before the date on which implementation is expected to begin.

Notwithstanding any provision of law to the contrary, subject to the approval of the director of budget, up to $23,000,000 of the amount appropriated herein shall be available for the purpose of providing payments to local social services districts for medical assistance administration claims that exceed an administrative ceiling estab- lished by the commissioner of health.

Notwithstanding section 40 of state finance law or any other law to the contrary, all medical assistance appropriations made from this account shall remain in full force and effect in accordance, in the 528 12553-02-5 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AID TO LOCALITIES - REAPPROPRIATIONS 2015-16 aggregate, with the following schedule: not more than 50 percent for the period April 1, 2014 to March 31, 2015; and the remaining amount for the period April 1, 2015 to [March 31] SEPTEMBER 15, 2016.

Such projections may be adjusted by the director of the budget to account for increased or expedited department of health state funds medicaid expenditures as a result of a natural or other type of disaster, including a governmental declaration of emergency. The director of the budget, in consultation with the commissioner of health, shall assess on a monthly basis known and projected medicaid expenditures by category of service and by geographic region, as determined by the commis- sioner of health, incurred both prior to and subsequent to such assessment for each such period, and if the director of the budget determines that such expenditures are expected to cause medicaid spending for such period to exceed the aggregate limit specified herein for such period, the state medicaid director, in consultation with the director of the budget and the commissioner of health, shall develop a medicaid savings allocation plan to limit such spending to the aggregate limit specified herein for such period. Such medicaid savings allocation plan shall be designed, to reduce the expenditures authorized by the appropriations herein in compliance with the following guidelines: (1) reductions shall be made in compliance with applicable federal law, including the provisions of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, Public Law No. 111-148, and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010, Public Law No. 111-152 (collectively "Affordable Care Act") and any subsequent amendments thereto or regulations promulgated thereunder; (2) reductions shall be made in a manner that complies with the state medicaid plan approved by the federal centers for medicare and medicaid services, provided, however, that the commis- sioner of health is authorized to submit any state plan amendment or 529 12553-02-5 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AID TO LOCALITIES - REAPPROPRIATIONS 2015-16 seek other federal approval, including waiver authority, to imple- ment the provisions of the medicaid savings allocation plan that meets the other criteria set forth herein; (3) reductions shall be made in a manner that maximizes federal financial participation, to the extent practicable, including any federal financial partic- ipation that is available or is reasonably expected to become avail- able, in the discretion of the commissioner, under the Affordable Care Act; (4) reductions shall be made uniformly among categories of services and geographic regions of the state, to the extent practi- cable, and shall be made uniformly within a category of service, to the extent practicable, except where the commissioner determines that there are sufficient grounds for non-uniformity, including but not limited to: the extent to which specific categories of services contributed to department of health medicaid state funds spending in excess of the limits specified herein; the need to maintain safety net services in underserved communities; or the potential benefits of pursuing innovative payment models contemplated by the Affordable Care Act, in which case such grounds shall be set forth in the medi- caid savings allocation plan; and (5) reductions shall be made in a manner that does not unnecessarily create administrative burdens to medicaid applicants and recipients or providers. The commissioner shall seek the input of the legislature, as well as organizations representing health care providers, consumers, busi- nesses, workers, health insurers, and others with relevant exper- tise, in developing such medicaid savings allocation plan, to the extent that all or part of such plan, in the discretion of the commissioner, is likely to have a material impact on the overall medicaid program, particular categories of service or particular geographic regions of the state. (a) The commissioner shall post the medicaid savings allocation plan on the department of health's website and shall provide written copies of such plan to the chairs of the senate finance and the assembly ways and means committees at least 30 days before the date on which implementation is expected to begin. (b) The commissioner may revise the medicaid savings allocation plan subsequent to the provisions of notice and prior to implementation but need provide a new notice pursuant to subparagraph (i) of this paragraph only if the commissioner determines, in his or her discretion, that such revisions materially alter the plan. Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs (a) and (b) of this subdivision, the commissioner need not seek the input described in paragraph (a) of this subdivision or provide notice pursuant to paragraph (b) of this paragraph if, in the discretion of the commis- sioner, expedited development and implementation of a medicaid savings allocation plan is necessary due to a public health emergen- cy. For purposes of this section, a public health emergency is defined as: (i) a disaster, natural or otherwise, that significantly increases the immediate need for health care personnel in an area of the state; (ii) an event or condition that creates a widespread risk of exposure to a serious communicable disease, or the potential for such widespread risk of exposure; or (iii) any other event or condi- 530 12553-02-5 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AID TO LOCALITIES - REAPPROPRIATIONS 2015-16 tion determined by the commissioner to constitute an imminent threat to public health. Nothing in this paragraph shall be deemed to prevent all or part of such medicaid savings allocation plan from taking effect retroac- tively to the extent permitted by the federal centers for medicare and medicaid services. In accordance with the medicaid savings allocation plan, the commis- sioner of the department of health shall reduce department of health state funds medicaid spending by the amount of the projected over- spending through, actions including, but not limited to modifying or suspending reimbursement methods, including but not limited to all fees, premium levels and rates of payment, notwithstanding any provision of law that sets a specific amount or methodology for any such payments or rates of payment; modifying medicaid program bene- fits; seeking all necessary federal approvals, including, but not limited to waivers, waiver amendments; and suspending time frames for notice, approval or certification of rate requirements, notwith- standing any provision of law, rule or regulation to the contrary, including but not limited to sections 2807 and 3614 of the public health law, section 18 of chapter 2 of the laws of 1988, and 18 NYCRR 505.14(h). The department of health shall prepare a monthly report that sets forth: (a) known and projected department of health medicaid expend- itures as described in subdivision (1) of this section, and factors that could result in medicaid disbursements for the relevant state fiscal year to exceed the projected department of health state funds disbursements in the enacted budget financial plan pursuant to subdivision 3 of section 23 of the state finance law, including spending increases or decreases due to: enrollment fluctuations, rate changes, utilization changes, MRT investments, and shift of beneficiaries to managed care; and variations in offline medicaid payments; and (b) the actions taken to implement any medicaid savings allocation plan implemented pursuant to subdivision (4) of this section, including information concerning the impact of such actions on each category of service and each geographic region of the state. Each such monthly report shall be provided to the chairs of the senate finance and the assembly ways and means committees and shall be posted on the department of health's website in a timely manner. The money hereby appropriated is available for payment of aid hereto- fore accrued to municipalities, and to providers of medical services pursuant to section 367-b of the social services law, and shall be available to the department net of disallowances, refunds, reimbursements, and credits.

Such projections may be adjusted by the director of the budget to account for increased or expedited department of health state funds medicaid expenditures as a result of a natural or other type of disaster, including a governmental declaration of emergency. The director of the budget, in consultation with the commissioner of health, shall assess on a monthly basis known and projected medicaid expenditures by category of service and by geographic region, as defined by the commissioner, incurred both prior to and subsequent to such assessment for each such period, and if the director of the budget determines that such expenditures are expected to cause medicaid spending for such period to exceed the aggregate limit specified herein for such period, the state medicaid director, in consultation with the director of the budget and the commissioner of health, shall develop a medicaid savings allocation plan to limit such spending to the aggregate limit specified herein for such period. Such medicaid savings allocation plan shall be designed, to reduce the expenditures authorized by the appropriations herein in compliance with the following guidelines: (1) reductions shall be made in compliance with applicable federal law, including the provisions of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, Public Law No. 111-148, and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010, Public Law No. 111-152 (collectively "Affordable Care Act") and any subsequent amendments thereto or regulations promulgated thereunder; (2) reductions shall be made in a manner that complies with the state medicaid plan approved by the federal centers for medicare and medicaid services, provided, however, that the commis- sioner of health is authorized to submit any state plan amendment or seek other federal approval, including waiver authority, to imple- ment the provisions of the medicaid savings allocation plan that meets the other criteria set forth herein; (3) reductions shall be made in a manner that maximizes federal financial participation, to the extent practicable, including any federal financial partic- 539 12553-02-5 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AID TO LOCALITIES - REAPPROPRIATIONS 2015-16 ipation that is available or is reasonably expected to become avail- able, in the discretion of the commissioner, under the Affordable Care Act; (4) reductions shall be made uniformly among categories of services and geographic regions of the state, to the extent practi- cable, and shall be made uniformly within a category of service, to the extent practicable, except where the commissioner determines that there are sufficient grounds for non-uniformity, including but not limited to: the extent to which specific categories of services contributed to department of health medicaid state funds spending in excess of the limits specified herein; the need to maintain safety net services in underserved communities; or the potential benefits of pursuing innovative payment models contemplated by the Affordable Care Act, in which case such grounds shall be set forth in the medi- caid savings allocation plan; and (5) reductions shall be made in a manner that does not unnecessarily create administrative burdens to medicaid applicants and recipients or providers. The commissioner shall seek the input of the legislature, as well as organizations representing health care providers, consumers, busi- nesses, workers, health insurers, and others with relevant exper- tise, in developing such medicaid savings allocation plan, to the extent that all or part of such plan, in the discretion of the commissioner, is likely to have a material impact on the overall medicaid program, particular categories of service or particular geographic regions of the states. (a) The commissioner shall post the medicaid savings allocation plan on the department of health's website and shall provide written copies of such plan to the chairs of the senate finance and the assembly ways and means committees at least 30 days before the date on which implementation is expected to begin. (b) The commissioner may revise the medicaid savings allocation plan subsequent to the provisions of notice and prior to implementation but need provide a new notice pursuant to subparagraph (i) of this paragraph only if the commissioner determines, in his or her discretion, that such revisions materially alter the plan. Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs (a) and (b) of this subdivision, the commissioner need not seek the input described in paragraph (a) of this subdivision or provide notice pursuant to paragraph (b) of this paragraph if, in the discretion of the commis- sioner, expedited development and implementation of a medicaid savings allocation plan is necessary due to a public health emergen- cy. For purposes of this section, a public health emergency is defined as: (i) a disaster, natural or otherwise, that significantly increases the immediate need for health care personnel in an area of the state; (ii) an event or condition that creates a widespread risk of exposure to a serious communicable disease, or the potential for such widespread risk of exposure; or (iii) any other event or condi- tion determined by the commissioner to constitute an imminent threat to public health. Nothing in this paragraph shall be deemed to prevent all or part of such medicaid savings allocation plan from taking effect retroac- 540 12553-02-5 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AID TO LOCALITIES - REAPPROPRIATIONS 2015-16 tively to the extent permitted by the federal centers for medicare and medicaid services. In accordance with the medicaid savings allocation plan, the commis- sioner of the department of health shall reduce department of health state funds medicaid spending by the amount of the projected over- spending through, actions including, but not limited to modifying or suspending reimbursement methods, including but not limited to all fees, premium levels and rates of payment, notwithstanding any provision of law that sets a specific amount or methodology for any such payments or rates of payment; modifying or discontinuing medi- caid program benefits; seeking all necessary federal approvals, including, but not limited to waivers, waiver amendments; and suspending time frames for notice, approval or certification of rate requirements, notwithstanding any provision of law, rule or regu- lation to the contrary, including but not limited to sections 2807 and 3614 of the public health law, section 18 of chapter 2 of the laws of 1988, and 18 NYCRR 505.14(h). The department of health shall prepare a monthly report that sets forth: (a) known and projected department of health medicaid expend- itures as described in subdivision 1 of this section, and factors that could result in medicaid disbursements for the relevant state fiscal year to exceed the projected department of health state funds disbursements in the enacted budget financial plan pursuant to subdivision 3 of section 23 of the state finance law, including spending increases or decreases due to: enrollment fluctuations, rate changes, utilization changes, MRT investments, and shift of beneficiaries to managed care; and variations in offline medicaid payments; and (b) the actions taken to implement any medicaid savings allocation plan implemented pursuant to subdivision 4 of this section, including information concerning the impact of such actions on each category of service and each geographic region of the state. Each such monthly report shall be provided to the chairs of the senate finance and the assembly ways and means committees and shall be posted on the department of health's website in a timely manner. The money hereby appropriated is to be available for payment of aid heretofore accrued to municipalities, and to providers of medical services pursuant to section 367-b of the social services law, and for payment of state aid to municipalities and to providers of fami- ly care where payment systems through the fiscal intermediaries are not operational, and shall be available to the department net of disallowances, refunds, reimbursements, and credits.

Such projections may be adjusted by the director of the budget to account for increased or expedited department of health state funds medicaid expenditures as a result of a natural or other type of disaster, including a governmental declaration of emergency. The director of the budget, in consultation with the commissioner of health, shall assess on monthly basis known and projected medicaid expenditures by category of service and by geographic region, as determined by the commis- sioner of health, incurred both prior to and subsequent to such assessment for each such period, and if the director of the budget determines that such expenditures are expected to cause medicaid spending for such period to exceed the aggregate limit specified herein for such period, the state medicaid director, in consultation with the director of the budget and the commissioner of health, shall develop a medicaid savings allocation plan to limit such spending to the aggregate limit specified herein for such period. Such medicaid savings allocation plan shall be designed, to reduce the expenditures authorized by the appropriations herein in compliance with the following guidelines: (1) reductions shall be made in compliance with applicable federal law, including the provisions of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, Public Law No. 111-148, and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010, Public Law No. 111-152 (collectively "Affordable Care Act") and any subsequent amendments thereto or regulations promulgated thereunder; (2) reductions shall be made in a manner that complies with the state medicaid plan approved by the federal centers for medicare and medicaid services, provided, however, that the commis- sioner of health is authorized to submit any state plan amendment or seek other federal approval, including waiver authority, to imple- ment the provisions of the medicaid savings allocation plan that meets the other criteria set forth herein; (3) reductions shall be made in a manner that maximizes federal financial participation, to the extent practicable, including any federal financial partic- ipation that is available or is reasonably expected to become avail- able, in the discretion of the commissioner, under the Affordable Care Act; (4) reductions shall be made uniformly among categories of 555 12553-02-5 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AID TO LOCALITIES - REAPPROPRIATIONS 2015-16 services and geographic regions of the state, to the extent practi- cable, and shall be made uniformly within a category of service, to the extent practicable, except where the commissioner determines that there are sufficient grounds for non-uniformity, including but not limited to: the extent to which specific categories of services contributed to department of health medicaid state funds spending in excess of the limits specified herein; the need to maintain safety net services in underserved communities; or the potential benefits of pursuing innovative payment models contemplated by the Affordable Care Act, in which case such grounds shall be set forth in the medi- caid savings allocation plan; and (5) reductions shall be made in a manner that does not unnecessarily create administrative burdens to medicaid applicants and recipients or providers. The commissioner shall seek the input of the legislature, as well as organizations representing health care providers, consumers, busi- nesses, workers, health insurers, and others with relevant exper- tise, in developing such medicaid savings allocation plan, to the extent that all or part of such plan, in the discretion of the commissioner, is likely to have a material impact on the overall medicaid program, particular categories of service or particular geographic regions of the state. (a) The commissioner shall post the medicaid savings allocation plan on the department of health's website and shall provide written copies of such plan to the chairs of the senate finance and the assembly ways and means committees at least 30 days before the date on which implementation is expected to begin. (b) The commissioner may revise the medicaid savings allocation plan subsequent to the provisions of notice and prior to implementation but need provide a new notice pursuant to subparagraph (i) of this paragraph only if the commissioner determines, in his or her discretion, that such revisions materially alter the plan. Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs (a) and (b) of this subdivision, the commissioner need not seek the input described in paragraph (a) of this subdivision or provide notice pursuant to paragraph (b) of this paragraph if, in the discretion of the commis- sioner, expedited development and implementation of a medicaid savings allocation plan is necessary due to a public health emergen- cy.

Social services districts must adjust the amount of payments made for care provided by congregate care and foster boarding home programs and to foster parents to reflect the cost of living adjustments in the manner specified by the office. Each authorized agency operating a congregate care or foster boarding home program in New York state for which the office sets a maximum state aid rate pursuant to section 398-a of the social services law or section 4003 or 4405 of the education law shall submit, at the time and in a manner to be determined by the office, a written certification, attesting that the funds received for the continuation of the cost of living adjust- ment to the maximum state aid rate that became effective April 1, 2008 for that program will be or were used solely in accordance with the requirements of the cost of living adjustment established by the office. 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, 2015 and ending March 31, 2016 the commissioner shall not apply any cost of living adjust- 139 12553-05-5 DEPARTMENT OF FAMILY ASSISTANCE OFFICE OF CHILDREN AND FAMILY SERVICES AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 ment 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, 2015 through March 31, 2016 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, 2014 that are submitted on or before January 2, 2015 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 portion of a social services district's allocation from funds appropriated herein not claimed by such district during the state fiscal year may be used by such district for expenditures on preventive services provided pursuant to section 409-a of the social services law, independent living services and aftercare services provided pursuant to regulations of the department of family assistance, claimed by such district during the next state fiscal year up to the amount remaining from the district's foster care block grant allocation, provided however, that any claims for such services during the next state fiscal year in excess of such amount shall be subject to 62 percent state reimbursement exclu- sive of any federal funds made available for such purposes, in accordance with directives of the department of family assistance and subject to the approval of the director 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 140 12553-05-5 DEPARTMENT OF FAMILY ASSISTANCE OFFICE OF CHILDREN AND FAMILY SERVICES AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 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 of whether such sanctions or disallowances are for services provided or claims made prior to or after April 1, 2015. 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 141 12553-05-5 DEPARTMENT OF FAMILY ASSISTANCE OFFICE OF CHILDREN AND FAMILY SERVICES AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 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 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 142 12553-05-5 DEPARTMENT OF FAMILY ASSISTANCE OFFICE OF CHILDREN AND FAMILY SERVICES AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 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 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' 143 12553-05-5 DEPARTMENT OF FAMILY ASSISTANCE OFFICE OF CHILDREN AND FAMILY SERVICES AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 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 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 144 12553-05-5 DEPARTMENT OF FAMILY ASSISTANCE OFFICE OF CHILDREN AND FAMILY SERVICES AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 frames shall have no right to appeal and shall not be a necessary party to any action brought by another social services district.

Notwithstanding any inconsistent provision of law, including section 1 of part C of chapter 57 of the laws of 2006, as amended by section 1 of part N of chapter 56 of the laws of 2013, for the period commencing on April 1, 2014 and ending March 31, 2015 the commissioner shall not apply any 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, 2014 through March 31, 2015 shall be limited to a district allocation, hereinafter referred to as the district's block grant allocation. Notwithstand- ing 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 retro- active payments for the 12 month period ending June 30, 2013 that are submitted on or before January 2, 2014 and, in part, on such other factors as determined by the office of children and family services and approved by the director of the budget. Any portion of a social services district's allocation from funds appropriated herein not claimed by such district during the state fiscal year may be used by such district for expenditures on preventive services provided pursuant to section 409-a of the social services law, inde- pendent living services and aftercare services provided pursuant to regulations of the department of family assistance, claimed by such district during the next state fiscal year up to the amount remain- ing from the district's foster care block grant allocation, provided however, that any claims for such services during the next state fiscal year in excess of such amount shall be subject to 62 percent state reimbursement exclusive of any federal funds made available for such purposes, in accordance with directives of the department of family assistance and subject to the approval of the director 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 allo- cation by the state share decrease related to federal retroactive reimbursement for such foster care services identified herein. The 204 12553-05-5 DEPARTMENT OF FAMILY ASSISTANCE OFFICE OF CHILDREN AND FAMILY SERVICES AID TO LOCALITIES - REAPPROPRIATIONS 2015-16 office, with the approval of the director of the budget, may reduce a district's block grant allocation by the state share of disallow- ances 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 reimbursement for any portion of any state disallowance 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 disallowance or sanction results from the failure of the social services district to comply with federal or state require- ments, including, but not limited to, failure to document eligibil- ity 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 sole- ly 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 of whether such sanctions or disallowances are for services provided or claims made prior to or after April 1, 2014. 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 eligibility for all title IV-E eligible children within the required time frames; claim title IV-E funding only for cases that meet all of the title IV-E eligibility 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 feder- al disallowance issued against the state as a result of a federal title IV-E secondary eligibility review regardless of the date the children may have entered foster care, the date the eligibility or payment errors occurred, or the filing date of any federal claims for reimbursement; provided, however, that the state shall be responsible for the disallowed costs and expenditures related to the placement of children in a facility operated by the office of chil- dren 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 government for the full amount of any disallowance imposed 205 12553-05-5 DEPARTMENT OF FAMILY ASSISTANCE OFFICE OF CHILDREN AND FAMILY SERVICES AID TO LOCALITIES - REAPPROPRIATIONS 2015-16 on the state by the federal administration for children and families within the timeframes necessary to avoid 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 allocation process. The final allo- cation 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 disallowance 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 chil- dren and family services will determine what is reasonable in estab- lishing 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 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 disallow- ance. 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 admin- istrative expenses. The resulting dollar amounts for all of the 206 12553-05-5 DEPARTMENT OF FAMILY ASSISTANCE OFFICE OF CHILDREN AND FAMILY SERVICES AID TO LOCALITIES - REAPPROPRIATIONS 2015-16 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 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 Rens- selaer 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 heretofore 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 disal- lowances, refunds, reimbursements, and credits. Notwithstanding any inconsistent provision of law, the amount herein appropriated may be transferred to any other appropriation within the office of children and family services and/or the office of temporary and disability assistance and/or suballocated to the office of temporary and disability assistance for the purpose of paying local social services districts' costs of the above program and may be increased or decreased by interchange with any other appropriation or with any other item or items within the amounts appropriated within the office of children and family services general fund - local assistance account with the approval of the director of the budget who shall file such approval with the depart- ment of audit and control and copies thereof with the chairman of the senate finance committee and the chairman of the assembly ways and means committee.

Notwithstanding the provisions of any other law to the contrary, the office of children and family services may, on behalf of social services districts, make payments to foster boarding homes paid directly by social services districts by direct deposit or debit card. Local social services districts shall reimburse the office for the costs of administering such direct deposit or debit card payments. Notwithstanding any inconsistent provision of the social services law or the state finance law, the office of children and family services shall, on a quarterly basis, request that the office of temporary and disability assistance reimburse the office of children and fami- ly services for the non-federal share of the costs of administering such direct deposit or debit card payments to capture the local share of such costs.

Such projections may be adjusted by the director of the budget to account for increased or expedited department of health state funds medicaid expenditures as a result of a natural or other type of disaster, including a governmental declaration of emergency. The director of the budget, in consultation with the commissioner of health, shall assess on a monthly basis known and projected medicaid expenditures by catego- ry of service and by geographic region, as determined by the commissioner of health, incurred both prior to and subsequent to such assessment for each such period, and if the director of the budget determines that such expenditures are expected to cause medicaid spending for such period to exceed the aggregate limit specified here- in for such period, the state medicaid director, in consultation with the direc- tor of the budget and the commissioner of 391 12553-05-5 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 health, shall develop a medicaid savings allocation plan to limit such spending to the aggregate limit specified herein for such period. Such medicaid savings allocation plan shall be designed, to reduce the expenditures authorized by the appropriations herein in compliance with the following guidelines: (1) reductions shall be made in compliance with applicable federal law, including the provisions of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, Public Law No. 111- 148, and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010, Public Law No. 111-152 (collectively "Affordable Care Act") and any subsequent amendments there- to or regulations promulgated thereunder; (2) reductions shall be made in a manner that complies with the state medicaid plan approved by the federal centers for medi- care and medicaid services, provided, however, that the commissioner of health is authorized to submit any state plan amendment or seek other federal approval, including waiver authority, to implement the provisions of the medicaid savings allocation plan that meets the other criteria set forth herein; (3) reductions shall be made in a manner that maximizes federal financial participation, to the extent practicable, including any federal financial participation that is available or is reasonably expected to become avail- able, in the discretion of the commission- er, under the Affordable Care Act; (4) reductions shall be made uniformly among categories of services and geographic regions of the state, to the extent prac- ticable, and shall be made uniformly with- in a category of service, to the extent practicable, except where the commissioner determines that there are sufficient grounds for non-uniformity, including but not limited to: the extent to which specific categories of services contrib- uted to department of health medicaid state funds spending in excess of the limits specified herein; the need to main- tain safety net services in underserved communities; or the potential benefits of pursuing innovative payment models contem- plated by the Affordable Care Act, in 392 12553-05-5 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 which case such grounds shall be set forth in the medicaid savings allocation plan; and (5) reductions shall be made in a manner that does not unnecessarily create administrative burdens to medicaid appli- cants and recipients or providers. The commissioner shall seek the input of the legislature, as well as organizations representing health care providers, consumers, businesses, workers, health insurers, and others with relevant exper- tise, in developing such medicaid savings allocation plan, to the extent that all or part of such plan, in the discretion of the commissioner, is likely to have a material impact on the overall medicaid program, particular categories of service or particular geographic regions of the state. (a) The commissioner shall post the medicaid savings allocation plan on the department of health's website and shall provide written copies of such plan to the chairs of the senate finance and the assembly ways and means committees at least 30 days before the date on which implementation is expected to begin. (b) The commissioner may revise the medicaid savings allocation plan subsequent to the provisions of notice and prior to imple- mentation but need provide a new notice pursuant to subparagraph (i) of this para- graph only if the commissioner determines, in his or her discretion, that such revisions materially alter the plan. Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs (a) and (b) of this subdivision, the commissioner need not seek the input described in paragraph (a) of this subdi- vision or provide notice pursuant to para- graph (b) of this paragraph if, in the discretion of the commissioner, expedited development and implementation of a medi- caid savings allocation plan is necessary due to a public health emergency. For purposes of this section, a public health emergency is defined as: (i) a disaster, natural or otherwise, that significantly increases the immediate need for health care personnel in an area of the state; (ii) an event or condition that creates a widespread risk of exposure to a 393 12553-05-5 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 serious communicable disease, or the potential for such widespread risk of exposure; or (iii) any other event or condition determined by the commissioner to constitute an imminent threat to public health. Nothing in this paragraph shall be deemed to prevent all or part of such medicaid savings allocation plan from taking effect retroactively to the extent permitted by the federal centers for medicare and medi- caid services. In accordance with the medicaid savings allocation plan, the commissioner of the department of health shall reduce depart- ment of health state funds medicaid spend- ing by the amount of the projected over- spending through, actions including, but not limited to modifying or suspending reimbursement methods, including but not limited to all fees, premium levels and rates of payment, notwithstanding any provision of law that sets a specific amount or methodology for any such payments or rates of payment; modifying medicaid program benefits; seeking all necessary federal approvals, including, but not limited to waivers, waiver amend- ments; and suspending time frames for notice, approval or certification of rate requirements, notwithstanding any provision of law, rule or regulation to the contrary, including but not limited to sections 2807 and 3614 of the public health law, section 18 of chapter 2 of the laws of 1988, and 18 NYCRR 505.14(h). The department of health shall prepare a monthly report that sets forth: (a) known and projected department of health medi- caid expenditures as described in subdivi- sion (1) of this section, and factors that could result in medicaid disbursements for the relevant state fiscal year to exceed the projected department of health state funds disbursements in the enacted budget financial plan pursuant to subdivision 3 of section 23 of the state finance law, including spending increases or decreases due to: enrollment fluctuations, rate changes, utilization changes, MRT invest- ments, and shift of beneficiaries to managed care; and variations in offline 394 12553-05-5 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 medicaid payments; and (b) the actions taken to implement any medicaid savings allocation plan implemented pursuant to subdivision (4) of this section, including information concerning the impact of such actions on each category of service and each geographic region of the state. Each such monthly report shall be provided to the chairs of the senate finance and the assembly ways and means committees and shall be posted on the department of health's website in a timely manner.

Such projections may be adjusted by the director of the budget to account for increased or expedited department of health state funds medicaid expenditures as a result of a natural or other type of disaster, including a governmental declaration of emergency. The director of the budget, in consultation with the commissioner of health, shall assess on monthly basis known and project- ed medicaid expenditures by category of service and by geographic region, as determined by the commissioner of health, incurred both prior to and subsequent to such assessment for each such period, and if the director of the budget determines that such expenditures are expected to cause medicaid spending for such period to exceed the aggregate limit specified here- in for such period, the state medicaid director, in consultation with the direc- tor of the budget and the commissioner of health, shall develop a medicaid savings allocation plan to limit such spending to the aggregate limit specified herein for such period. Such medicaid savings allocation plan shall be designed, to reduce the expenditures authorized by the appropriations herein in compliance with the following guidelines: (1) reductions shall be made in compliance with applicable federal law, including the provisions of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, Public Law No. 111- 148, and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010, Public Law No. 111-152 (collectively "Affordable Care Act") and any subsequent amendments there- to or regulations promulgated thereunder; (2) reductions shall be made in a manner that complies with the state medicaid plan approved by the federal centers for medi- care and medicaid services, provided, however, that the commissioner of health 422 12553-05-5 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 is authorized to submit any state plan amendment or seek other federal approval, including waiver authority, to implement the provisions of the medicaid savings allocation plan that meets the other criteria set forth herein; (3) reductions shall be made in a manner that maximizes federal financial participation, to the extent practicable, including any federal financial participation that is available or is reasonably expected to become avail- able, in the discretion of the commission- er, under the Affordable Care Act; (4) reductions shall be made uniformly among categories of services and geographic regions of the state, to the extent prac- ticable, and shall be made uniformly with- in a category of service, to the extent practicable, except where the commissioner determines that there are sufficient grounds for non-uniformity, including but not limited to: the extent to which specific categories of services contrib- uted to department of health medicaid state funds spending in excess of the limits specified herein; the need to main- tain safety net services in underserved communities; or the potential benefits of pursuing innovative payment models contem- plated by the Affordable Care Act, in which case such grounds shall be set forth in the medicaid savings allocation plan; and (5) reductions shall be made in a manner that does not unnecessarily create administrative burdens to medicaid appli- cants and recipients or providers. The commissioner shall seek the input of the legislature, as well as organizations representing health care providers, consumers, businesses, workers, health insurers, and others with relevant exper- tise, in developing such medicaid savings allocation plan, to the extent that all or part of such plan, in the discretion of the commissioner, is likely to have a material impact on the overall medicaid program, particular categories of service or particular geographic regions of the state. (a) The commissioner shall post the medicaid savings allocation plan on the department of health's website and shall provide 423 12553-05-5 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 written copies of such plan to the chairs of the senate finance and the assembly ways and means committees at least 30 days before the date on which implementation is expected to begin. (b) The commissioner may revise the medicaid savings allocation plan subsequent to the provisions of notice and prior to imple- mentation but need provide a new notice pursuant to subparagraph (i) of this para- graph only if the commissioner determines, in his or her discretion, that such revisions materially alter the plan. Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs (a) and (b) of this subdivision, the commissioner need not seek the input described in paragraph (a) of this subdi- vision or provide notice pursuant to para- graph (b) of this subdivision if, in the discretion of the commissioner, expedited development and implementation of a medi- caid savings allocation plan is necessary due to a public health emergency. For purposes of this section, a public health emergency is defined as: (i) a disaster, natural or otherwise, that significantly increases the immediate need for health care personnel in an area of the state; (ii) an event or condition that creates a widespread risk of exposure to a serious communicable disease, or the potential for such widespread risk of exposure; or (iii) any other event or condition determined by the commissioner to constitute an imminent threat to public health. Nothing in this paragraph shall be deemed to prevent all or part of such medicaid savings allocation plan from taking effect retroactively to the extent permitted by the federal centers for medicare and medi- caid services. In accordance with the medicaid savings allocation plan, the commissioner of the department of health shall reduce depart- ment of health state funds medicaid spend- ing by the amount of the projected over- spending through, actions including, but not limited to modifying or suspending reimbursement methods, including but not limited to all fees, premium levels and rates of payment, notwithstanding any 424 12553-05-5 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 provision of law that sets a specific amount or methodology for any such payments or rates of payment; modifying medicaid program benefits; seeking all necessary federal approvals, including, but not limited to waivers, waiver amend- ments; and suspending time frames for notice, approval or certification of rate requirements, notwithstanding any provision of law, rule or regulation to the contrary, including but not limited to sections 2807 and 3614 of the public health law, section 18 of chapter 2 of the laws of 1988, and 18 NYCRR 505.14(h). The department of health shall prepare a monthly report that sets forth: (a) known and projected department of health medi- caid expenditures as described in subdivi- sion (1) of this section, and factors that could result in medicaid disbursements for the relevant state fiscal year to exceed the projected department of health state funds disbursements in the enacted budget financial plan pursuant to subdivision 3 of section 23 of the state finance law, including spending increases or decreases due to: enrollment fluctuations, rate changes, utilization changes, MRT invest- ments, and shift of beneficiaries to managed care; and variations in offline medicaid payments; and (b) the actions taken to implement any medicaid savings allocation plan implemented pursuant to subdivision (4) of this section, including information concerning the impact of such actions on each category of service and each geographic region of the state. Each such monthly report shall be provided to the chairs of the senate finance and the assembly ways and means committees and shall be posted on the department of health's website in a timely manner.

Such projections may be adjusted by the director of the budget to account for increased or expedited depart- ment of health state funds medicaid expenditures as a result of a natural or other type of disaster, including a governmental declaration of emergency. The director of the budget, in consultation with the commissioner of health, shall assess on monthly basis known and project- ed medicaid expenditures by category of service and by geographic region, as determined by the commissioner of health, incurred both prior to and subsequent to such assessment for each such period, and if the director of the budget determines that such expenditures are expected to cause medicaid spending for such period to exceed the aggregate limit specified here- in for such period, the state medicaid director, in consultation with the direc- tor of the budget and the commissioner of health, shall develop a medicaid savings allocation plan to limit such spending to the aggregate limit specified herein for such period. Such medicaid savings allocation plan shall be designed, to reduce the expenditures authorized by the appropriations herein in compliance with the following guidelines: (1) reductions shall be made in compliance with applicable federal law, including the provisions of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, Public Law No. 111- 148, and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010, Public Law No. 111-152 (collectively "Affordable Care Act") and any subsequent amendments there- to or regulations promulgated thereunder; (2) reductions shall be made in a manner that complies with the state medicaid plan approved by the federal centers for medi- care and medicaid services, provided, however, that the commissioner of health is authorized to submit any state plan amendment or seek other federal approval, 434 12553-05-5 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 including waiver authority, to implement the provisions of the medicaid savings allocation plan that meets the other criteria set forth herein; (3) reductions shall be made in a manner that maximizes federal financial participation, to the extent practicable, including any federal financial participation that is available or is reasonably expected to become avail- able, in the discretion of the commission- er, under the Affordable Care Act; (4) reductions shall be made uniformly among categories of services and geographic regions of the state, to the extent prac- ticable, and shall be made uniformly with- in a category of service, to the extent practicable, except where the commissioner determines that there are sufficient grounds for non-uniformity, including but not limited to: the extent to which specific categories of services contrib- uted to department of health medicaid state funds spending in excess of the limits specified herein; the need to main- tain safety net services in underserved communities; or the potential benefits of pursuing innovative payment models contem- plated by the Affordable Care Act, in which case such grounds shall be set forth in the medicaid savings allocation plan; and (5) reductions shall be made in a manner that does not unnecessarily create administrative burdens to medicaid appli- cants and recipients or providers. The commissioner shall seek the input of the legislature, as well as organizations representing health care providers, consumers, businesses, workers, health insurers, and others with relevant exper- tise, in developing such medicaid savings allocation plan, to the extent that all or part of such plan, in the discretion of the commissioner, is likely to have a material impact on the overall medicaid program, particular categories of service or particular geographic regions of the state. (a) The commissioner shall post the medicaid savings allocation plan on the department of health's website and shall provide written copies of such plan to the chairs of the senate finance and the assembly 435 12553-05-5 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 ways and means committees at least 30 days before the date on which implementation is expected to begin. (b) The commissioner may revise the medicaid savings allocation plan subsequent to the provisions of notice and prior to imple- mentation but need provide a new notice pursuant to subparagraph (i) of this para- graph only if the commissioner determines, in his or her discretion, that such revisions materially alter the plan. Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs (a) and (b) of this subdivision, the commissioner need not seek the input described in paragraph (a) of this subdi- vision or provide notice pursuant to para- graph (b) of this subdivision if, in the discretion of the commissioner, expedited development and implementation of a medi- caid savings allocation plan is necessary due to a public health emergency. For purposes of this section, a public health emergency is defined as: (i) a disaster, natural or otherwise, that significantly increases the immediate need for health care personnel in an area of the state; (ii) an event or condition that creates a widespread risk of exposure to a serious communicable disease, or the potential for such widespread risk of exposure; or (iii) any other event or condition determined by the commissioner to constitute an imminent threat to public health. Nothing in this paragraph shall be deemed to prevent all or part of such medicaid savings allocation plan from taking effect retroactively to the extent permitted by the federal centers for medicare and medi- caid services. In accordance with the medicaid savings allocation plan, the commissioner of the department of health shall reduce depart- ment of health state funds medicaid spend- ing by the amount of the projected over- spending through, actions including, but not limited to modifying or suspending reimbursement methods, including but not limited to all fees, premium levels and rates of payment, notwithstanding any provision of law that sets a specific amount or methodology for any such 436 12553-05-5 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 payments or rates of payment; modifying medicaid program benefits; seeking all necessary federal approvals, including, but not limited to waivers, waiver amend- ments; and suspending time frames for notice, approval or certification of rate requirements, notwithstanding any provision of law, rule or regulation to the contrary, including but not limited to sections 2807 and 3614 of the public health law, section 18 of chapter 2 of the laws of 1988, and 18 NYCRR 505.14(h). The department of health shall prepare a monthly report that sets forth: (a) known and projected department of health medi- caid expenditures as described in subdivi- sion (1) of this section, and factors that could result in medicaid disbursements for the relevant state fiscal year to exceed the projected department of health state funds disbursements in the enacted budget financial plan pursuant to subdivision 3 of section 23 of the state finance law, including spending increases or decreases due to: enrollment fluctuations, rate changes, utilization changes, MRT invest- ments, and shift of beneficiaries to managed care; and variations in offline medicaid payments; and (b) the actions taken to implement any medicaid savings allocation plan implemented pursuant to subdivision (4) of this section, including information concerning the impact of such actions on each category of service and each geographic region of the state. Each such monthly report shall be provided to the chairs of the senate finance and the assembly ways and means committees and shall be posted on the department of health's website in a timely manner.

Notwithstanding section 40 of state finance law or any other law to the contrary, all medical assistance appropriations made from this account shall remain in full force and effect in accordance, in the 451 12553-05-5 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AID TO LOCALITIES - REAPPROPRIATIONS 2015-16 aggregate, with the following schedule: not more than 50 percent for the period April 1, 2014 to March 31, 2015; and the remaining amount for the period April 1, 2015 to [March 31] SEPTEMBER 15, 2016. Notwithstanding section 40 of the state finance law or any provision of law to the contrary, subject to federal approval, department of health state funds medicaid spending, excluding payments for medical services provided at state facilities operated by the office of mental health, the office for people with developmental disabilities and the office of alcoholism and substance abuse services and further excluding any payments which are not appropriated within the department of health, in the aggregate, for the period April 1, 2014 through March 31, 2015, shall not exceed $17,082,871,000 except as provided below and state share medicaid spending, in the aggregate, for the period April 1, 2015 through [March 31] SEPTEMBER 15, 2016, shall not exceed $17,937,867,000, but in no event shall department of health state funds medicaid spending for the period April 1, 2014 through [March 31] SEPTEMBER 15, 2016 exceed $35,020,738,000 provided, however, such aggregate limits may be adjusted by the director of the budget to account for any changes in the New York state federal medical assistance percentage amount established pursuant to the federal social security act, increases in provider revenues, reductions in local social services district payments for medical assistance administration and beginning April 1, 2012 the operational costs of the New York state medical indemnity fund, pursuant to a chapter establishing such fund. Such projections may be adjusted by the director of the budget to account for increased or expedited department of health state funds medicaid expenditures as a result of a natural or other type of disaster, including a governmental declaration of emergency. The director of the budget, in consultation with the commissioner of health, shall assess on a monthly basis known and projected medicaid expenditures by category of service and by geographic region, as determined by the commis- sioner of health, incurred both prior to and subsequent to such assessment for each such period, and if the director of the budget determines that such expenditures are expected to cause medicaid spending for such period to exceed the aggregate limit specified herein for such period, the state medicaid director, in consultation with the director of the budget and the commissioner of health, shall develop a medicaid savings allocation plan to limit such spending to the aggregate limit specified herein for such period. Such medicaid savings allocation plan shall be designed, to reduce the expenditures authorized by the appropriations herein in compliance with the following guidelines: (1) reductions shall be made in compliance with applicable federal law, including the provisions of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, Public Law No. 111-148, and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010, Public Law No. 111-152 (collectively "Affordable Care Act") and any subsequent amendments thereto or regulations promulgated thereunder; (2) reductions shall be made in a manner that complies with the state medicaid plan approved by the federal centers for medicare and medicaid services, provided, however, that the commis- sioner of health is authorized to submit any state plan amendment or 452 12553-05-5 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AID TO LOCALITIES - REAPPROPRIATIONS 2015-16 seek other federal approval, including waiver authority, to imple- ment the provisions of the medicaid savings allocation plan that meets the other criteria set forth herein; (3) reductions shall be made in a manner that maximizes federal financial participation, to the extent practicable, including any federal financial partic- ipation that is available or is reasonably expected to become avail- able, in the discretion of the commissioner, under the Affordable Care Act; (4) reductions shall be made uniformly among categories of services and geographic regions of the state, to the extent practi- cable, and shall be made uniformly within a category of service, to the extent practicable, except where the commissioner determines that there are sufficient grounds for non-uniformity, including but not limited to: the extent to which specific categories of services contributed to department of health medicaid state funds spending in excess of the limits specified herein; the need to maintain safety net services in underserved communities; or the potential benefits of pursuing innovative payment models contemplated by the Affordable Care Act, in which case such grounds shall be set forth in the medi- caid savings allocation plan; and (5) reductions shall be made in a manner that does not unnecessarily create administrative burdens to medicaid applicants and recipients or providers. The commissioner shall seek the input of the legislature, as well as organizations representing health care providers, consumers, busi- nesses, workers, health insurers, and others with relevant exper- tise, in developing such medicaid savings allocation plan, to the extent that all or part of such plan, in the discretion of the commissioner, is likely to have a material impact on the overall medicaid program, particular categories of service or particular geographic regions of the state. (a) The commissioner shall post the medicaid savings allocation plan on the department of health's website and shall provide written copies of such plan to the chairs of the senate finance and the assembly ways and means committees at least 30 days before the date on which implementation is expected to begin. (b) The commissioner may revise the medicaid savings allocation plan subsequent to the provisions of notice and prior to implementation but need provide a new notice pursuant to subparagraph (i) of this paragraph only if the commissioner determines, in his or her discretion, that such revisions materially alter the plan. Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs (a) and (b) of this subdivision, the commissioner need not seek the input described in paragraph (a) of this subdivision or provide notice pursuant to paragraph (b) of this paragraph if, in the discretion of the commis- sioner, expedited development and implementation of a medicaid savings allocation plan is necessary due to a public health emergen- cy. For purposes of this section, a public health emergency is defined as: (i) a disaster, natural or otherwise, that significantly increases the immediate need for health care personnel in an area of the state; (ii) an event or condition that creates a widespread risk of exposure to a serious communicable disease, or the potential for such widespread risk of exposure; or (iii) any other event or condi- 453 12553-05-5 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AID TO LOCALITIES - REAPPROPRIATIONS 2015-16 tion determined by the commissioner to constitute an imminent threat to public health. Nothing in this paragraph shall be deemed to prevent all or part of such medicaid savings allocation plan from taking effect retroac- tively to the extent permitted by the federal centers for medicare and medicaid services. In accordance with the medicaid savings allocation plan, the commis- sioner of the department of health shall reduce department of health state funds medicaid spending by the amount of the projected over- spending through, actions including, but not limited to modifying or suspending reimbursement methods, including but not limited to all fees, premium levels and rates of payment, notwithstanding any provision of law that sets a specific amount or methodology for any such payments or rates of payment; modifying medicaid program bene- fits; seeking all necessary federal approvals, including, but not limited to waivers, waiver amendments; and suspending time frames for notice, approval or certification of rate requirements, notwith- standing any provision of law, rule or regulation to the contrary, including but not limited to sections 2807 and 3614 of the public health law, section 18 of chapter 2 of the laws of 1988, and 18 NYCRR 505.14(h). The department of health shall prepare a monthly report that sets forth: (a) known and projected department of health medicaid expend- itures as described in subdivision (1) of this section, and factors that could result in medicaid disbursements for the relevant state fiscal year to exceed the projected department of health state funds disbursements in the enacted budget financial plan pursuant to subdivision 3 of section 23 of the state finance law, including spending increases or decreases due to: enrollment fluctuations, rate changes, utilization changes, MRT investments, and shift of beneficiaries to managed care; and variations in offline medicaid payments; and (b) the actions taken to implement any medicaid savings allocation plan implemented pursuant to subdivision (4) of this section, including information concerning the impact of such actions on each category of service and each geographic region of the state. Each such monthly report shall be provided to the chairs of the senate finance and the assembly ways and means committees and shall be posted on the department of health's website in a timely manner.

Such projections may be adjusted by the director of the budget to account for increased or expedited department of health state funds medicaid expenditures as a result of a natural or other type of disaster, including a governmental declaration of emergency. The director of the budget, in consultation with the commissioner of health, shall assess on a monthly basis known and projected medicaid expenditures by category of service and by geographic region, as defined by the commissioner, incurred both prior to and subsequent to such assessment for each such period, and if the director of the budget determines that such expenditures are expected to cause medicaid spending for such period to exceed the aggregate limit specified herein for such period, the state medicaid director, in consultation with the director of the budget and the commissioner of health, shall develop a medicaid savings allocation plan to limit such spending to the aggregate limit specified herein for such period. Such medicaid savings allocation plan shall be designed, to reduce the expenditures authorized by the appropriations herein in compliance with the following guidelines: (1) reductions shall be made in compliance with applicable federal law, including the provisions of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, Public Law No. 111-148, and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010, Public Law No. 111-152 (collectively "Affordable Care Act") and any subsequent amendments thereto or regulations promulgated thereunder; (2) reductions shall be made in a manner that complies with the state medicaid plan approved by the federal centers for medicare and medicaid services, provided, however, that the commis- sioner of health is authorized to submit any state plan amendment or seek other federal approval, including waiver authority, to imple- ment the provisions of the medicaid savings allocation plan that meets the other criteria set forth herein; (3) reductions shall be made in a manner that maximizes federal financial participation, to the extent practicable, including any federal financial partic- 462 12553-05-5 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AID TO LOCALITIES - REAPPROPRIATIONS 2015-16 ipation that is available or is reasonably expected to become avail- able, in the discretion of the commissioner, under the Affordable Care Act; (4) reductions shall be made uniformly among categories of services and geographic regions of the state, to the extent practi- cable, and shall be made uniformly within a category of service, to the extent practicable, except where the commissioner determines that there are sufficient grounds for non-uniformity, including but not limited to: the extent to which specific categories of services contributed to department of health medicaid state funds spending in excess of the limits specified herein; the need to maintain safety net services in underserved communities; or the potential benefits of pursuing innovative payment models contemplated by the Affordable Care Act, in which case such grounds shall be set forth in the medi- caid savings allocation plan; and (5) reductions shall be made in a manner that does not unnecessarily create administrative burdens to medicaid applicants and recipients or providers. The commissioner shall seek the input of the legislature, as well as organizations representing health care providers, consumers, busi- nesses, workers, health insurers, and others with relevant exper- tise, in developing such medicaid savings allocation plan, to the extent that all or part of such plan, in the discretion of the commissioner, is likely to have a material impact on the overall medicaid program, particular categories of service or particular geographic regions of the states. (a) The commissioner shall post the medicaid savings allocation plan on the department of health's website and shall provide written copies of such plan to the chairs of the senate finance and the assembly ways and means committees at least 30 days before the date on which implementation is expected to begin. (b) The commissioner may revise the medicaid savings allocation plan subsequent to the provisions of notice and prior to implementation but need provide a new notice pursuant to subparagraph (i) of this paragraph only if the commissioner determines, in his or her discretion, that such revisions materially alter the plan. Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs (a) and (b) of this subdivision, the commissioner need not seek the input described in paragraph (a) of this subdivision or provide notice pursuant to paragraph (b) of this paragraph if, in the discretion of the commis- sioner, expedited development and implementation of a medicaid savings allocation plan is necessary due to a public health emergen- cy. For purposes of this section, a public health emergency is defined as: (i) a disaster, natural or otherwise, that significantly increases the immediate need for health care personnel in an area of the state; (ii) an event or condition that creates a widespread risk of exposure to a serious communicable disease, or the potential for such widespread risk of exposure; or (iii) any other event or condi- tion determined by the commissioner to constitute an imminent threat to public health. Nothing in this paragraph shall be deemed to prevent all or part of such medicaid savings allocation plan from taking effect retroac- 463 12553-05-5 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AID TO LOCALITIES - REAPPROPRIATIONS 2015-16 tively to the extent permitted by the federal centers for medicare and medicaid services. In accordance with the medicaid savings allocation plan, the commis- sioner of the department of health shall reduce department of health state funds medicaid spending by the amount of the projected over- spending through, actions including, but not limited to modifying or suspending reimbursement methods, including but not limited to all fees, premium levels and rates of payment, notwithstanding any provision of law that sets a specific amount or methodology for any such payments or rates of payment; modifying or discontinuing medi- caid program benefits; seeking all necessary federal approvals, including, but not limited to waivers, waiver amendments; and suspending time frames for notice, approval or certification of rate requirements, notwithstanding any provision of law, rule or regu- lation to the contrary, including but not limited to sections 2807 and 3614 of the public health law, section 18 of chapter 2 of the laws of 1988, and 18 NYCRR 505.14(h). The department of health shall prepare a monthly report that sets forth: (a) known and projected department of health medicaid expend- itures as described in subdivision 1 of this section, and factors that could result in medicaid disbursements for the relevant state fiscal year to exceed the projected department of health state funds disbursements in the enacted budget financial plan pursuant to subdivision 3 of section 23 of the state finance law, including spending increases or decreases due to: enrollment fluctuations, rate changes, utilization changes, MRT investments, and shift of beneficiaries to managed care; and variations in offline medicaid payments; and (b) the actions taken to implement any medicaid savings allocation plan implemented pursuant to subdivision 4 of this section, including information concerning the impact of such actions on each category of service and each geographic region of the state. Each such monthly report shall be provided to the chairs of the senate finance and the assembly ways and means committees and shall be posted on the department of health's website in a timely manner. The money hereby appropriated is to be available for payment of aid heretofore accrued to municipalities, and to providers of medical services pursuant to section 367-b of the social services law, and for payment of state aid to municipalities and to providers of fami- ly care where payment systems through the fiscal intermediaries are not operational, and shall be available to the department net of disallowances, refunds, reimbursements, and credits.

The commissioner shall seek the input of the legislature, as well as organizations representing health care providers, consumers, busi- nesses, workers, health insurers, and others with relevant exper- tise, in developing such medicaid savings allocation plan, to the extent that all or part of such plan, in the discretion of the commissioner, is likely to have a material impact on the overall medicaid program, particular categories of service or particular geographic regions of the state. (a) The commissioner shall post the medicaid savings allocation plan on the department of health's website and shall provide written copies of such plan to the chairs of the senate finance and the assembly ways and means committees at least 30 days before the date on which implementation is expected to begin.

Social services districts must adjust the amount of payments made for care provided by congregate care and foster boarding home programs and to foster parents to reflect the cost of living adjustments in the manner specified by the office. Each authorized agency operating a congregate care or foster boarding home program in New York state for which the office sets a maximum state aid rate pursuant to section 398-a of the social services law or section 4003 or 4405 of the education law shall submit, at the time and in a manner to be determined by the office, a written certification, attesting that the funds received for the continuation of the cost of living adjust- ment to the maximum state aid rate that became effective April 1, 2008 for that program will be or were used solely in accordance with the requirements of the cost of living adjustment established by the office. 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, 2015 and ending March 31, 2016 the commissioner shall not apply any cost of living adjust- 186 12553-06-5 DEPARTMENT OF FAMILY ASSISTANCE OFFICE OF CHILDREN AND FAMILY SERVICES AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 ment 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, 2015 through March 31, 2016 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, 2014 that are submitted on or before January 2, 2015 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 portion of a social services district's allocation from funds appropriated herein not claimed by such district during the state fiscal year may be used by such district for expenditures on preventive services provided pursuant to section 409-a of the social services law, independent living services and aftercare services provided pursuant to regulations of the department of family assistance, claimed by such district during the next state fiscal year up to the amount remaining from the district's foster care block grant allocation, provided however, that any claims for such services during the next state fiscal year in excess of such amount shall be subject to 62 percent state reimbursement exclu- sive of any federal funds made available for such purposes, in accordance with directives of the department of family assistance and subject to the approval of the director 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 187 12553-06-5 DEPARTMENT OF FAMILY ASSISTANCE OFFICE OF CHILDREN AND FAMILY SERVICES AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 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 of whether such sanctions or disallowances are for services provided or claims made prior to or after April 1, 2015. 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 188 12553-06-5 DEPARTMENT OF FAMILY ASSISTANCE OFFICE OF CHILDREN AND FAMILY SERVICES AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 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 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 189 12553-06-5 DEPARTMENT OF FAMILY ASSISTANCE OFFICE OF CHILDREN AND FAMILY SERVICES AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 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 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' 190 12553-06-5 DEPARTMENT OF FAMILY ASSISTANCE OFFICE OF CHILDREN AND FAMILY SERVICES AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 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 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 191 12553-06-5 DEPARTMENT OF FAMILY ASSISTANCE OFFICE OF CHILDREN AND FAMILY SERVICES AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 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 any inconsistent provision of law, the amount herein appropriated may be transferred to any other appropriation within the office of children and family services and/or the office of temporary and disability assistance and/or suballo- cated to the office of temporary and disa- bility assistance for the purpose of paying local social services districts' costs of the above program and may be increased or decreased by interchange with any other appropriation or with any other item or items within the amounts appropri- ated within the office of children and family services general fund - local assistance account with the approval of the director of the budget who shall file such approval with the department of audit and control and copies thereof with the chairman of the senate finance committee and the chairman of the assembly ways and means committee. Notwithstanding any inconsistent provision of law, in lieu of payments authorized by the social services law, or payments of federal funds otherwise due to the local social services districts for programs provided under the federal social security act or the federal food stamp act, funds herein appropriated, in amounts certified by the state comptroller or the state commissioner of health as due from local social services districts each month as their share of payments made pursuant to section 367-b of the social services law may be set aside by the state comptroller in an interest bearing account with such interest accruing to the credit of the locality in order to ensure the orderly 192 12553-06-5 DEPARTMENT OF FAMILY ASSISTANCE OFFICE OF CHILDREN AND FAMILY SERVICES AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 and prompt payment of providers under section 367-b of the social services law pursuant to an estimate provided by the commissioner of health of each local social services district's share of payments made pursuant to section 367-b of the social services law. 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.

Notwithstanding any inconsistent provision of law, including section 1 of part C of chapter 57 of the laws of 2006, as amended by section 1 of part N of chapter 56 of the laws of 2013, for the period commencing on April 1, 2014 and ending March 31, 2015 the commissioner shall not apply any 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, 2014 through March 31, 2015 shall be limited to a district allocation, hereinafter referred to as the district's block grant allocation. Notwithstand- ing 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 retro- active payments for the 12 month period ending June 30, 2013 that are submitted on or before January 2, 2014 and, in part, on such other factors as determined by the office of children and family services and approved by the director of the budget. Any portion of a social services district's allocation from funds appropriated herein not claimed by such district during the state fiscal year may be used by such district for expenditures on preventive services provided pursuant to section 409-a of the social services law, inde- pendent living services and aftercare services provided pursuant to regulations of the department of family assistance, claimed by such district during the next state fiscal year up to the amount remain- ing from the district's foster care block grant allocation, provided however, that any claims for such services during the next state fiscal year in excess of such amount shall be subject to 62 percent state reimbursement exclusive of any federal funds made available for such purposes, in accordance with directives of the department of family assistance and subject to the approval of the director 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 allo- cation by the state share decrease related to federal retroactive reimbursement for such foster care services identified herein. The 251 12553-06-5 DEPARTMENT OF FAMILY ASSISTANCE OFFICE OF CHILDREN AND FAMILY SERVICES AID TO LOCALITIES - REAPPROPRIATIONS 2015-16 office, with the approval of the director of the budget, may reduce a district's block grant allocation by the state share of disallow- ances 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 reimbursement for any portion of any state disallowance 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 disallowance or sanction results from the failure of the social services district to comply with federal or state require- ments, including, but not limited to, failure to document eligibil- ity 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 sole- ly 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 of whether such sanctions or disallowances are for services provided or claims made prior to or after April 1, 2014. 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 eligibility for all title IV-E eligible children within the required time frames; claim title IV-E funding only for cases that meet all of the title IV-E eligibility 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 feder- al disallowance issued against the state as a result of a federal title IV-E secondary eligibility review regardless of the date the children may have entered foster care, the date the eligibility or payment errors occurred, or the filing date of any federal claims for reimbursement; provided, however, that the state shall be responsible for the disallowed costs and expenditures related to the placement of children in a facility operated by the office of chil- dren 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 government for the full amount of any disallowance imposed 252 12553-06-5 DEPARTMENT OF FAMILY ASSISTANCE OFFICE OF CHILDREN AND FAMILY SERVICES AID TO LOCALITIES - REAPPROPRIATIONS 2015-16 on the state by the federal administration for children and families within the timeframes necessary to avoid 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 allocation process. The final allo- cation 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 disallowance 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 chil- dren and family services will determine what is reasonable in estab- lishing 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 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 disallow- ance. 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 admin- istrative expenses. The resulting dollar amounts for all of the 253 12553-06-5 DEPARTMENT OF FAMILY ASSISTANCE OFFICE OF CHILDREN AND FAMILY SERVICES AID TO LOCALITIES - REAPPROPRIATIONS 2015-16 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 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 Rens- selaer 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 heretofore 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 disal- lowances, refunds, reimbursements, and credits. Notwithstanding any inconsistent provision of law, the amount herein appropriated may be transferred to any other appropriation within the office of children and family services and/or the office of temporary and disability assistance and/or suballocated to the office of temporary and disability assistance for the purpose of paying local social services districts' costs of the above program and may be increased or decreased by interchange with any other appropriation or with any other item or items within the amounts appropriated within the office of children and family services general fund - local assistance account with the approval of the director of the budget who shall file such approval with the depart- ment of audit and control and copies thereof with the chairman of the senate finance committee and the chairman of the assembly ways and means committee.

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

The commissioner shall seek the input of the legislature, as well as organizations representing health care providers, consumers, businesses, workers, health insurers, and others with relevant exper- tise, in developing such medicaid savings allocation plan, to the extent that all or part of such plan, in the discretion of the commissioner, is likely to have a material impact on the overall medicaid program, particular categories of service or particular geographic regions of the state. (a) The commissioner shall post the medicaid savings allocation plan on the department of health's website and shall provide 496 12553-06-5 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AID TO LOCALITIES 2015-16 written copies of such plan to the chairs of the senate finance and the assembly ways and means committees at least 30 days before the date on which implementation is expected to begin.

Such projections may be adjusted by the director of the budget to account for increased or expedited department of health state funds medicaid expenditures as a result of a natural or other type of disaster, including a governmental declaration of emergency. The director of the budget, in consultation with the commissioner of health, shall assess on a monthly basis known and projected medicaid expenditures by category of service and by geographic region, as determined by the commis- sioner of health, incurred both prior to and subsequent to such assessment for each such period, and if the director of the budget determines that such expenditures are expected to cause medicaid spending for such period to exceed the aggregate limit specified 541 12553-06-5 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AID TO LOCALITIES - REAPPROPRIATIONS 2015-16 herein for such period, the state medicaid director, in consultation with the director of the budget and the commissioner of health, shall develop a medicaid savings allocation plan to limit such spending to the aggregate limit specified herein for such period. Such medicaid savings allocation plan shall be designed, to reduce the expenditures authorized by the appropriations herein in compliance with the following guidelines: (1) reductions shall be made in compliance with applicable federal law, including the provisions of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, Public Law No. 111-148, and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010, Public Law No. 111-152 (collectively "Affordable Care Act") and any subsequent amendments thereto or regulations promulgated thereunder; (2) reductions shall be made in a manner that complies with the state medicaid plan approved by the federal centers for medicare and medicaid services, provided, however, that the commis- sioner of health is authorized to submit any state plan amendment or seek other federal approval, including waiver authority, to imple- ment the provisions of the medicaid savings allocation plan that meets the other criteria set forth herein; (3) reductions shall be made in a manner that maximizes federal financial participation, to the extent practicable, including any federal financial partic- ipation that is available or is reasonably expected to become avail- able, in the discretion of the commissioner, under the Affordable Care Act; (4) reductions shall be made uniformly among categories of services and geographic regions of the state, to the extent practi- cable, and shall be made uniformly within a category of service, to the extent practicable, except where the commissioner determines that there are sufficient grounds for non-uniformity, including but not limited to: the extent to which specific categories of services contributed to department of health medicaid state funds spending in excess of the limits specified herein; the need to maintain safety net services in underserved communities; or the potential benefits of pursuing innovative payment models contemplated by the Affordable Care Act, in which case such grounds shall be set forth in the medi- caid savings allocation plan; and (5) reductions shall be made in a manner that does not unnecessarily create administrative burdens to medicaid applicants and recipients or providers. The commissioner shall seek the input of the legislature, as well as organizations representing health care providers, consumers, busi- nesses, workers, health insurers, and others with relevant exper- tise, in developing such medicaid savings allocation plan, to the extent that all or part of such plan, in the discretion of the commissioner, is likely to have a material impact on the overall medicaid program, particular categories of service or particular geographic regions of the state. (a) The commissioner shall post the medicaid savings allocation plan on the department of health's website and shall provide written copies of such plan to the chairs of the senate finance and the assembly ways and means committees at least 30 days before the date on which implementation is expected to begin. (b) The commissioner may revise the medicaid savings allocation plan subsequent to the provisions of notice and prior to implementation 542 12553-06-5 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AID TO LOCALITIES - REAPPROPRIATIONS 2015-16 but need provide a new notice pursuant to subparagraph (i) of this paragraph only if the commissioner determines, in his or her discretion, that such revisions materially alter the plan. Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs (a) and (b) of this subdivision, the commissioner need not seek the input described in paragraph (a) of this subdivision or provide notice pursuant to paragraph (b) of this paragraph if, in the discretion of the commis- sioner, expedited development and implementation of a medicaid savings allocation plan is necessary due to a public health emergen- cy. For purposes of this section, a public health emergency is defined as: (i) a disaster, natural or otherwise, that significantly increases the immediate need for health care personnel in an area of the state; (ii) an event or condition that creates a widespread risk of exposure to a serious communicable disease, or the potential for such widespread risk of exposure; or (iii) any other event or condi- tion determined by the commissioner to constitute an imminent threat to public health. Nothing in this paragraph shall be deemed to prevent all or part of such medicaid savings allocation plan from taking effect retroac- tively to the extent permitted by the federal centers for medicare and medicaid services. In accordance with the medicaid savings allocation plan, the commis- sioner of the department of health shall reduce department of health state funds medicaid spending by the amount of the projected over- spending through, actions including, but not limited to modifying or suspending reimbursement methods, including but not limited to all fees, premium levels and rates of payment, notwithstanding any provision of law that sets a specific amount or methodology for any such payments or rates of payment; modifying medicaid program bene- fits; seeking all necessary federal approvals, including, but not limited to waivers, waiver amendments; and suspending time frames for notice, approval or certification of rate requirements, notwith- standing any provision of law, rule or regulation to the contrary, including but not limited to sections 2807 and 3614 of the public health law, section 18 of chapter 2 of the laws of 1988, and 18 NYCRR 505.14(h). The department of health shall prepare a monthly report that sets forth: (a) known and projected department of health medicaid expend- itures as described in subdivision (1) of this section, and factors that could result in medicaid disbursements for the relevant state fiscal year to exceed the projected department of health state funds disbursements in the enacted budget financial plan pursuant to subdivision 3 of section 23 of the state finance law, including spending increases or decreases due to: enrollment fluctuations, rate changes, utilization changes, MRT investments, and shift of beneficiaries to managed care; and variations in offline medicaid payments; and (b) the actions taken to implement any medicaid savings allocation plan implemented pursuant to subdivision (4) of this section, including information concerning the impact of such actions on each category of service and each geographic region of the state. Each such monthly report shall be provided to the chairs 543 12553-06-5 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AID TO LOCALITIES - REAPPROPRIATIONS 2015-16 of the senate finance and the assembly ways and means committees and shall be posted on the department of health's website in a timely manner.

Such projections may be adjusted by the director of the budget to account for increased or expedited department of health state funds medicaid expenditures as a result of a natural or other type of disaster, including a governmental declaration of emergency. The director of the budget, in consultation with the commissioner of health, shall assess on a monthly basis known and projected medicaid expenditures by category of service and by geographic region, as defined by the commissioner, incurred both prior to and subsequent to such assessment for each such period, and if the director of the budget determines that such expenditures are expected to cause medicaid spending for such period to exceed the aggregate limit specified herein for such period, the state medicaid director, in consultation with the director of the budget and the commissioner of health, shall develop a medicaid 551 12553-06-5 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AID TO LOCALITIES - REAPPROPRIATIONS 2015-16 savings allocation plan to limit such spending to the aggregate limit specified herein for such period. Such medicaid savings allocation plan shall be designed, to reduce the expenditures authorized by the appropriations herein in compliance with the following guidelines: (1) reductions shall be made in compliance with applicable federal law, including the provisions of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, Public Law No. 111-148, and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010, Public Law No. 111-152 (collectively "Affordable Care Act") and any subsequent amendments thereto or regulations promulgated thereunder; (2) reductions shall be made in a manner that complies with the state medicaid plan approved by the federal centers for medicare and medicaid services, provided, however, that the commis- sioner of health is authorized to submit any state plan amendment or seek other federal approval, including waiver authority, to imple- ment the provisions of the medicaid savings allocation plan that meets the other criteria set forth herein; (3) reductions shall be made in a manner that maximizes federal financial participation, to the extent practicable, including any federal financial partic- ipation that is available or is reasonably expected to become avail- able, in the discretion of the commissioner, under the Affordable Care Act; (4) reductions shall be made uniformly among categories of services and geographic regions of the state, to the extent practi- cable, and shall be made uniformly within a category of service, to the extent practicable, except where the commissioner determines that there are sufficient grounds for non-uniformity, including but not limited to: the extent to which specific categories of services contributed to department of health medicaid state funds spending in excess of the limits specified herein; the need to maintain safety net services in underserved communities; or the potential benefits of pursuing innovative payment models contemplated by the Affordable Care Act, in which case such grounds shall be set forth in the medi- caid savings allocation plan; and (5) reductions shall be made in a manner that does not unnecessarily create administrative burdens to medicaid applicants and recipients or providers. The commissioner shall seek the input of the legislature, as well as organizations representing health care providers, consumers, busi- nesses, workers, health insurers, and others with relevant exper- tise, in developing such medicaid savings allocation plan, to the extent that all or part of such plan, in the discretion of the commissioner, is likely to have a material impact on the overall medicaid program, particular categories of service or particular geographic regions of the states. (a) The commissioner shall post the medicaid savings allocation plan on the department of health's website and shall provide written copies of such plan to the chairs of the senate finance and the assembly ways and means committees at least 30 days before the date on which implementation is expected to begin. (b) The commissioner may revise the medicaid savings allocation plan subsequent to the provisions of notice and prior to implementation but need provide a new notice pursuant to subparagraph (i) of this 552 12553-06-5 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AID TO LOCALITIES - REAPPROPRIATIONS 2015-16 paragraph only if the commissioner determines, in his or her discretion, that such revisions materially alter the plan. Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs (a) and (b) of this subdivision, the commissioner need not seek the input described in paragraph (a) of this subdivision or provide notice pursuant to paragraph (b) of this paragraph if, in the discretion of the commis- sioner, expedited development and implementation of a medicaid savings allocation plan is necessary due to a public health emergen- cy. For purposes of this section, a public health emergency is defined as: (i) a disaster, natural or otherwise, that significantly increases the immediate need for health care personnel in an area of the state; (ii) an event or condition that creates a widespread risk of exposure to a serious communicable disease, or the potential for such widespread risk of exposure; or (iii) any other event or condi- tion determined by the commissioner to constitute an imminent threat to public health. Nothing in this paragraph shall be deemed to prevent all or part of such medicaid savings allocation plan from taking effect retroac- tively to the extent permitted by the federal centers for medicare and medicaid services. In accordance with the medicaid savings allocation plan, the commis- sioner of the department of health shall reduce department of health state funds medicaid spending by the amount of the projected over- spending through, actions including, but not limited to modifying or suspending reimbursement methods, including but not limited to all fees, premium levels and rates of payment, notwithstanding any provision of law that sets a specific amount or methodology for any such payments or rates of payment; modifying or discontinuing medi- caid program benefits; seeking all necessary federal approvals, including, but not limited to waivers, waiver amendments; and suspending time frames for notice, approval or certification of rate requirements, notwithstanding any provision of law, rule or regu- lation to the contrary, including but not limited to sections 2807 and 3614 of the public health law, section 18 of chapter 2 of the laws of 1988, and 18 NYCRR 505.14(h). The department of health shall prepare a monthly report that sets forth: (a) known and projected department of health medicaid expend- itures as described in subdivision 1 of this section, and factors that could result in medicaid disbursements for the relevant state fiscal year to exceed the projected department of health state funds disbursements in the enacted budget financial plan pursuant to subdivision 3 of section 23 of the state finance law, including spending increases or decreases due to: enrollment fluctuations, rate changes, utilization changes, MRT investments, and shift of beneficiaries to managed care; and variations in offline medicaid payments; and (b) the actions taken to implement any medicaid savings allocation plan implemented pursuant to subdivision 4 of this section, including information concerning the impact of such actions on each category of service and each geographic region of the state. Each such monthly report shall be provided to the chairs of the senate finance and the assembly ways and means committees and 553 12553-06-5 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AID TO LOCALITIES - REAPPROPRIATIONS 2015-16 shall be posted on the department of health's website in a timely manner.

Such projections may be adjusted by the director of the budget to account for increased or expedited department of health state funds medicaid expenditures as a result of a natural or other type of disaster, including a governmental declaration of emergency. The director of the budget, in consultation with the commissioner of health, shall assess on monthly basis known and projected medicaid expenditures by category of service and by geographic region, as determined by the commis- sioner of health, incurred both prior to and subsequent to such assessment for each such period, and if the director of the budget determines that such expenditures are expected to cause medicaid spending for such period to exceed the aggregate limit specified herein for such period, the state medicaid director, in consultation with the director of the budget and the commissioner of health, 567 12553-06-5 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AID TO LOCALITIES - REAPPROPRIATIONS 2015-16 shall develop a medicaid savings allocation plan to limit such spending to the aggregate limit specified herein for such period. Such medicaid savings allocation plan shall be designed, to reduce the expenditures authorized by the appropriations herein in compliance with the following guidelines: (1) reductions shall be made in compliance with applicable federal law, including the provisions of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, Public Law No. 111-148, and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010, Public Law No. 111-152 (collectively "Affordable Care Act") and any subsequent amendments thereto or regulations promulgated thereunder; (2) reductions shall be made in a manner that complies with the state medicaid plan approved by the federal centers for medicare and medicaid services, provided, however, that the commis- sioner of health is authorized to submit any state plan amendment or seek other federal approval, including waiver authority, to imple- ment the provisions of the medicaid savings allocation plan that meets the other criteria set forth herein; (3) reductions shall be made in a manner that maximizes federal financial participation, to the extent practicable, including any federal financial partic- ipation that is available or is reasonably expected to become avail- able, in the discretion of the commissioner, under the Affordable Care Act; (4) reductions shall be made uniformly among categories of services and geographic regions of the state, to the extent practi- cable, and shall be made uniformly within a category of service, to the extent practicable, except where the commissioner determines that there are sufficient grounds for non-uniformity, including but not limited to: the extent to which specific categories of services contributed to department of health medicaid state funds spending in excess of the limits specified herein; the need to maintain safety net services in underserved communities; or the potential benefits of pursuing innovative payment models contemplated by the Affordable Care Act, in which case such grounds shall be set forth in the medi- caid savings allocation plan; and (5) reductions shall be made in a manner that does not unnecessarily create administrative burdens to medicaid applicants and recipients or providers. The commissioner shall seek the input of the legislature, as well as organizations representing health care providers, consumers, busi- nesses, workers, health insurers, and others with relevant exper- tise, in developing such medicaid savings allocation plan, to the extent that all or part of such plan, in the discretion of the commissioner, is likely to have a material impact on the overall medicaid program, particular categories of service or particular geographic regions of the state. (a) The commissioner shall post the medicaid savings allocation plan on the department of health's website and shall provide written copies of such plan to the chairs of the senate finance and the assembly ways and means committees at least 30 days before the date on which implementation is expected to begin. (b) The commissioner may revise the medicaid savings allocation plan subsequent to the provisions of notice and prior to implementation but need provide a new notice pursuant to subparagraph (i) of this 568 12553-06-5 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AID TO LOCALITIES - REAPPROPRIATIONS 2015-16 paragraph only if the commissioner determines, in his or her discretion, that such revisions materially alter the plan.
