A bill for an act
relating to human services; creating chemical health pilot projects; requiring
reports.
BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF MINNESOTA:
new text begin
There is established a state-county
chemical health care home pilot project. The purpose of the pilot project is for the
Department of Human Services and counties to work in partnership to redesign the current
chemical health delivery system to promote greater accountability, productivity, and
results in the delivery of state chemical dependency services. The pilot project must look
to promote appropriate flexibility in a way that better aligns systems and services to offer
the most appropriate level of chemical health care services to the client. This may include,
but is not limited to, developing new governance agreements, performance agreements,
or service level agreements. The pilot projects must maintain eligibility levels under the
current programmatic entitlement structure, continue to meet the requirements of Rule 25
(Minnesota Rules, parts 9530.6600 to 9530.6655) and Rule 31 (Minnesota Rules, parts
9530.6405 to 9530.6505), and must not put at risk current and future federal funding
toward chemical health-related services in Minnesota.
