(a) For the rate years
beginning October 1, 2008, to October 1, 2015, the operating payment rate calculated

payment rate from section 256B.434. For the rate year beginning October 1, 2014, the
operating payment rate for each facility shall be 82 percent of the operating payment rate
from this section, and 18 percent of the operating payment rate from section 256B.434. For
the rate year beginning October 1, 2015, the operating payment rate for each facility shall
be the operating payment rate determined under this section. The blending of operating
payment rates under this section shall be performed separately for each RUG's class.

(b) For the rate year beginning October 1, 2008, the commissioner shall apply limits
to the operating payment rate increases under paragraph (a) by creating a minimum

rate increase under paragraph (a) of less than one percent, when compared to its operating
payment rate on September 30, 2008, computed using rates with RUG's weight of 1.00,
shall receive a rate adjustment of one percent.

(2) The commissioner shall determine a maximum percentage increase that will
result in savings equal to the cost of allowing the minimum increase in clause (1). Nursing
facilities with a blended October 1, 2008, operating payment rate increase under paragraph
(a) greater than the maximum percentage increase determined by the commissioner, when
compared to its operating payment rate on September 30, 2008, computed using rates with
a RUG's weight of 1.00, shall receive the maximum percentage increase.

(3) Nursing facilities with a blended October 1, 2008, operating payment rate

under paragraph (a).

(4) The October 1, 2009, through October 1, 2015, operating payment rate for
facilities receiving the maximum percentage increase determined in clause (2) shall be
the amount determined under paragraph (a) less the difference between the amount
determined under paragraph (a) for October 1, 2008, and the amount allowed under clause
(2). This rate restriction does not apply to rate increases provided in any other section.

(c) A portion of the funds received under this subdivision that are in excess of
operating payment rates that a facility would have received under section 256B.434, as
determined in accordance with clauses (1) to (3), shall be subject to the requirements in
section 256B.434, subdivision 19, paragraphs (b) to (h).

(1) Determine the amount of additional funding available to a facility, which shall be
equal to total medical assistance resident days from the most recent reporting year times
the difference between the blended rate determined in paragraph (a) for the rate year being
computed and the blended rate for the prior year.

(2) Determine the portion of all operating costs, for the most recent reporting year,
that are compensation related. If this value exceeds 75 percent, use 75 percent.

(3) Subtract the amount determined in clause (2) from 75 percent.

(4) The portion of the fund received under this subdivision that shall be subject to
the requirements in section 256B.434, subdivision 19, paragraphs (b) to (h), shall equal
the amount determined in clause (1) times the amount determined in clause (3).

Coordinated care delivery systems.

(a) Effective June 1, 2010, the
commissioner shall contract with hospitals or groups of hospitals that qualify under
paragraph (b) and agree to deliver services according to this subdivision. Contracting
hospitals shall develop and implement a coordinated care delivery system to provide
health care services to individuals who are eligible for general assistance medical care
under this section and who either choose to receive services through the coordinated
care delivery system or who are enrolled by the commissioner under paragraph (c). The
health care services provided by the system must include: (1) the services described in
subdivision 4 with the exception of outpatient prescription drug coverage but shall include
drugs administered in a clinic or other outpatient setting; or (2) a set of comprehensive
and medically necessary health services that the recipients might reasonably require to be

minimum, but not limited to, emergency care, medical transportation services, inpatient
hospital and physician care, outpatient health services, preventive health services, mental
health services, and prescription drugs administered in a clinic or other outpatient setting.
Outpatient prescription drug coverage is covered on a fee-for-service basis in accordance
with section 256D.03, subdivision 3, and funded under subdivision 9. A hospital
establishing a coordinated care delivery system under this subdivision must ensure that the
requirements of this subdivision are met.

(b) A hospital or group of hospitals may contract with the commissioner to develop
and implement a coordinated care delivery system as follows:

(1) effective June 1, 2010, a hospital qualifies under this subdivision if: (i) during
calendar year 2008, it received fee-for-service payments for services to general assistance
medical care recipients (A) equal to or greater than $1,500,000, or (B) equal to or greater
than 1.3 percent of net patient revenue; or (ii) a contract with the hospital is necessary to
provide geographic access or to ensure that at least 80 percent of enrollees have access to
a coordinated care delivery system; and

(2) effective December 1, 2010, a Minnesota hospital not qualified under clause
(1) may contract with the commissioner under this subdivision if it agrees to satisfy the
requirements of this subdivision.

Participation by hospitals shall become effective quarterly on June 1, September 1,
December 1, or March 1. Hospital participation is effective for a period of 12 months and
may be renewed for successive 12-month periods.

(c) Applicants and recipients may enroll in any available coordinated care delivery
system statewide. If more than one coordinated care delivery system is available, the
applicant or recipient shall be allowed to choose among the systems. The commissioner
may assign an applicant or recipient to a coordinated care delivery system if no choice
is made by the applicant or recipient. The commissioner shall consider a recipient's zip
code, city of residence, county of residence, or distance from a participating coordinated
care delivery system when determining default assignment. An applicant or recipient
may decline enrollment in a coordinated care delivery system. Upon enrollment into a
coordinated care delivery system, the recipient must agree to receive all nonemergency
services through the coordinated care delivery system. Enrollment in a coordinated care
delivery system is for six months and may be renewed for additional six-month periods,
except that initial enrollment is for six months or until the end of a recipient's period
of general assistance medical care eligibility, whichever occurs first. A recipient who
continues to meet the eligibility requirements of this section is not eligible to enroll in
MinnesotaCare during a period of enrollment in a coordinated care delivery system.
From June 1, 2010, to deleted text begin November 30, 2010deleted text end new text begin February 28, 2011new text end , applicants and recipients

under subdivision 8. After deleted text begin November 30, 2010deleted text end new text begin February 28, 2011new text end , services are available
only through a coordinated care delivery system.

(d) The hospital may contract and coordinate with providers and clinics for the
delivery of services and shall contract with essential community providers as defined
under section 62Q.19, subdivision 1, paragraph (a), clauses (1) and (2), to the extent
practicable. If a provider or clinic contracts with a hospital to provide services through the
coordinated care delivery system, the provider may not refuse to provide services to any
recipient enrolled in the system, and payment for services shall be negotiated with the
hospital and paid by the hospital from the system's allocation under subdivision 7.

(e) A coordinated care delivery system must:

(1) provide the covered services required under paragraph (a) to recipients enrolled
in the coordinated care delivery system, and comply with the requirements of subdivision
4, paragraphs (b) to (g);

(2) establish a process to monitor enrollment and ensure the quality of care provided;
and

(3) in cooperation with counties, coordinate the delivery of health care services with
existing homeless prevention, supportive housing, and rent subsidy programs and funding
administered by the Minnesota Housing Finance Agency under chapter 462A; and

(4) adopt innovative and cost-effective methods of care delivery and coordination,
which may include the use of allied health professionals, telemedicine, patient educators,
care coordinators, and community health workers.

(f) The hospital may require a recipient to designate a primary care provider or
a primary care clinic. The hospital may limit the delivery of services to a network of
providers who have contracted with the hospital to deliver services in accordance with
this subdivision, and require a recipient to seek services only within this network. The
hospital may also require a referral to a provider before the service is eligible for payment.
A coordinated care delivery system is not required to provide payment to a provider who
is not employed by or under contract with the system for services provided to a recipient
enrolled in the system, except in cases of an emergency. For purposes of this section,
emergency services are defined in accordance with Code of Federal Regulations, title
42, section 438.114 (a).

(g) A recipient enrolled in a coordinated care delivery system has the right to appeal
to the commissioner according to section 256.045.

(h) The state shall not be liable for the payment of any cost or obligation incurred
by the coordinated care delivery system.

(i) The hospital must provide the commissioner with data necessary for assessing
enrollment, quality of care, cost, and utilization of services. Each hospital must provide,
on a quarterly basis on a form prescribed by the commissioner for each recipient served by
the coordinated care delivery system, the services provided, the cost of services provided,
and the actual payment amount for the services provided and any other information the
commissioner deems necessary to claim federal Medicaid match. The commissioner must
provide this data to the legislature on a quarterly basis.

(j) Effective June 1, 2010, the provisions of section 256.9695, subdivision 2,
paragraph (b), do not apply to general assistance medical care provided under this section.

new text begin (k) Notwithstanding any other provision in this section to the contrary, for
participation beginning September 1, 2010, the commissioner shall offer the same contract

Sec. 6.

Minnesota Statutes 2009 Supplement, section 252.27, subdivision 2a, is
amended to read:


Subd. 2a.

Contribution amount.

(a) The natural or adoptive parents of a minor
child, including a child determined eligible for medical assistance without consideration of
parental income, must contribute to the cost of services used by making monthly payments
on a sliding scale based on income, unless the child is married or has been married,
parental rights have been terminated, or the child's adoption is subsidized according to
section 259.67 or through title IV-E of the Social Security Act. The parental contribution
is a partial or full payment for medical services provided for diagnostic, therapeutic,
curing, treating, mitigating, rehabilitation, maintenance, and personal care services as
defined in United States Code, title 26, section 213, needed by the child with a chronic
illness or disability.

(b) For households with adjusted gross income equal to or greater than 100 percent
of federal poverty guidelines, the parental contribution shall be computed by applying the
following schedule of rates to the adjusted gross income of the natural or adoptive parents:

(1) if the adjusted gross income is equal to or greater than 100 percent of federal
poverty guidelines and less than 175 percent of federal poverty guidelines, the parental
contribution is $4 per month;

(2) if the adjusted gross income is equal to or greater than 175 percent of federal
poverty guidelines and less than or equal to 545 percent of federal poverty guidelines,
the parental contribution shall be determined using a sliding fee scale established by the
commissioner of human services which begins at one percent of adjusted gross income
at 175 percent of federal poverty guidelines and increases to 7.5 percent of adjusted
gross income for those with adjusted gross income up to 545 percent of federal poverty
guidelines;

(3) if the adjusted gross income is greater than 545 percent of federal poverty
guidelines and less than 675 percent of federal poverty guidelines, the parental
contribution shall be 7.5 percent of adjusted gross income;

(4) if the adjusted gross income is equal to or greater than 675 percent of federal
poverty guidelines and less than 975 percent of federal poverty guidelines, the parental
contribution shall be determined using a sliding fee scale established by the commissioner
of human services which begins at 7.5 percent of adjusted gross income at 675 percent of
federal poverty guidelines and increases to ten percent of adjusted gross income for those
with adjusted gross income up to 975 percent of federal poverty guidelines; and

(5) if the adjusted gross income is equal to or greater than 975 percent of federal
poverty guidelines, the parental contribution shall be 12.5 percent of adjusted gross
income.

If the child lives with the parent, the annual adjusted gross income is reduced by
$2,400 prior to calculating the parental contribution. If the child resides in an institution
specified in section 256B.35, the parent is responsible for the personal needs allowance
specified under that section in addition to the parental contribution determined under this
section. The parental contribution is reduced by any amount required to be paid directly to
the child pursuant to a court order, but only if actually paid.

(c) The household size to be used in determining the amount of contribution under
paragraph (b) includes natural and adoptive parents and their dependents, including the
child receiving services. Adjustments in the contribution amount due to annual changes
in the federal poverty guidelines shall be implemented on the first day of July following
publication of the changes.

(d) For purposes of paragraph (b), "income" means the adjusted gross income of the
natural or adoptive parents determined according to the previous year's federal tax form,
except, effective retroactive to July 1, 2003, taxable capital gains to the extent the funds
have been used to purchase a home shall not be counted as income.

(e) The contribution shall be explained in writing to the parents at the time eligibility
for services is being determined. The contribution shall be made on a monthly basis
effective with the first month in which the child receives services. Annually upon
redetermination or at termination of eligibility, if the contribution exceeded the cost of
services provided, the local agency or the state shall reimburse that excess amount to
the parents, either by direct reimbursement if the parent is no longer required to pay a
contribution, or by a reduction in or waiver of parental fees until the excess amount is
exhausted. All reimbursements must include a notice that the amount reimbursed may be
taxable income if the parent paid for the parent's fees through an employer's health care
flexible spending account under the Internal Revenue Code, section 125, and that the
parent is responsible for paying the taxes owed on the amount reimbursed.

(f) The monthly contribution amount must be reviewed at least every 12 months;
when there is a change in household size; and when there is a loss of or gain in income
from one month to another in excess of ten percent. The local agency shall mail a written
notice 30 days in advance of the effective date of a change in the contribution amount.
A decrease in the contribution amount is effective in the month that the parent verifies a
reduction in income or change in household size.

(g) Parents of a minor child who do not live with each other shall each pay the
contribution required under paragraph (a). An amount equal to the annual court-ordered
child support payment actually paid on behalf of the child receiving services shall be
deducted from the adjusted gross income of the parent making the payment prior to
calculating the parental contribution under paragraph (b).

(h) The contribution under paragraph (b) shall be increased by an additional five
percent if the local agency determines that insurance coverage is available but not
obtained for the child. For purposes of this section, "available" means the insurance is a
benefit of employment for a family member at an annual cost of no more than five percent
of the family's annual income. For purposes of this section, "insurance" means health
and accident insurance coverage, enrollment in a nonprofit health service plan, health
maintenance organization, self-insured plan, or preferred provider organization.

Parents who have more than one child receiving services shall not be required
to pay more than the amount for the child with the highest expenditures. There shall
be no resource contribution from the parents. The parent shall not be required to pay
a contribution in excess of the cost of the services provided to the child, not counting
payments made to school districts for education-related services. Notice of an increase in
fee payment must be given at least 30 days before the increased fee is due.

(i) The contribution under paragraph (b) shall be reduced by $300 per fiscal year if,
in the 12 months prior to July 1:

(1) the parent applied for insurance for the child;

(2) the insurer denied insurance;

(3) the parents submitted a complaint or appeal, in writing to the insurer, submitted
a complaint or appeal, in writing, to the commissioner of health or the commissioner of
commerce, or litigated the complaint or appeal; and

(4) as a result of the dispute, the insurer reversed its decision and granted insurance.

For purposes of this section, "insurance" has the meaning given in paragraph (h).

A parent who has requested a reduction in the contribution amount under this
paragraph shall submit proof in the form and manner prescribed by the commissioner or
county agency, including, but not limited to, the insurer's denial of insurance, the written
letter or complaint of the parents, court documents, and the written response of the insurer
approving insurance. The determinations of the commissioner or county agency under this
paragraph are not rules subject to chapter 14.

new text begin (j) Notwithstanding paragraph (b), for the period from July 1, 2010, to June 30,
2013, the parental contribution shall be computed by applying the following contribution
schedule to the adjusted gross income of the natural or adoptive parents:

at 175 percent of federal poverty guidelines and increases to eight percent of adjusted
gross income for those with adjusted gross income up to 525 percent of federal poverty
guidelines;
new text end

new text begin (3) if the adjusted gross income is greater than 525 percent of federal poverty

poverty guidelines and less than 900 percent of federal poverty guidelines, the parental
contribution shall be determined using a sliding fee scale established by the commissioner

federal poverty guidelines and increases to 12 percent of adjusted gross income for those
with adjusted gross income up to 900 percent of federal poverty guidelines; and
new text end

new text begin (5) if the adjusted gross income is equal to or greater than 900 percent of federal
poverty guidelines, the parental contribution shall be 13.5 percent of adjusted gross
income. If the child lives with the parent, the annual adjusted gross income is reduced by
$2,400 prior to calculating the parental contribution. If the child resides in an institution
specified in section 256B.35, the parent is responsible for the personal needs allowance
specified under that section in addition to the parental contribution determined under this
section. The parental contribution is reduced by any amount required to be paid directly to
the child pursuant to a court order, but only if actually paid.

Phase-in of rebased operating payment rates.

(a) For the rate years
beginning October 1, 2008, to October 1, 2015, the operating payment rate calculated
under this section shall be phased in by blending the operating rate with the operating
payment rate determined under section 256B.434. For purposes of this subdivision, the
rate to be used that is determined under section 256B.434 shall not include the portion of
the operating payment rate related to performance-based incentive payments under section

from this section, and 35 percent of the operating payment rate from section 256B.434.
For the rate year beginning October 1, 2014, the operating payment rate for each facility
shall be 82 percent of the operating payment rate from this section, and 18 percent of the
operating payment rate from section 256B.434. For the rate year beginning October 1,
2015, the operating payment rate for each facility shall be the operating payment rate
determined under this section. The blending of operating payment rates under this section
shall be performed separately for each RUG's class.

(b) For the rate year beginning October 1, 2008, the commissioner shall apply limits
to the operating payment rate increases under paragraph (a) by creating a minimum
percentage increase and a maximum percentage increase.

(1) Each nursing facility that receives a blended October 1, 2008, operating payment
rate increase under paragraph (a) of less than one percent, when compared to its operating
payment rate on September 30, 2008, computed using rates with RUG's weight of 1.00,
shall receive a rate adjustment of one percent.

(2) The commissioner shall determine a maximum percentage increase that will
result in savings equal to the cost of allowing the minimum increase in clause (1). Nursing
facilities with a blended October 1, 2008, operating payment rate increase under paragraph
(a) greater than the maximum percentage increase determined by the commissioner, when
compared to its operating payment rate on September 30, 2008, computed using rates with
a RUG's weight of 1.00, shall receive the maximum percentage increase.

(3) Nursing facilities with a blended October 1, 2008, operating payment rate
increase under paragraph (a) greater than one percent and less than the maximum
percentage increase determined by the commissioner, when compared to its operating
payment rate on September 30, 2008, computed using rates with a RUG's weight of 1.00,
shall receive the blended October 1, 2008, operating payment rate increase determined
under paragraph (a).

(4) The October 1, 2009, through October 1, 2015, operating payment rate for
facilities receiving the maximum percentage increase determined in clause (2) shall be
the amount determined under paragraph (a) less the difference between the amount
determined under paragraph (a) for October 1, 2008, and the amount allowed under clause
(2). This rate restriction does not apply to rate increases provided in any other section.

(c) A portion of the funds received under this subdivision that are in excess of
operating payment rates that a facility would have received under section 256B.434, as
determined in accordance with clauses (1) to (3), shall be subject to the requirements in
section 256B.434, subdivision 19, paragraphs (b) to (h).

(1) Determine the amount of additional funding available to a facility, which shall be
equal to total medical assistance resident days from the most recent reporting year times
the difference between the blended rate determined in paragraph (a) for the rate year being
computed and the blended rate for the prior year.

(2) Determine the portion of all operating costs, for the most recent reporting year,
that are compensation related. If this value exceeds 75 percent, use 75 percent.

(3) Subtract the amount determined in clause (2) from 75 percent.

(4) The portion of the fund received under this subdivision that shall be subject to
the requirements in section 256B.434, subdivision 19, paragraphs (b) to (h), shall equal

Sec. 13.

Minnesota Statutes 2009 Supplement, section 256B.69, subdivision 23,
is amended to read:


Subd. 23.

Alternative services; elderly and disabled persons.

(a) The
commissioner may implement demonstration projects to create alternative integrated
delivery systems for acute and long-term care services to elderly persons and persons
with disabilities as defined in section 256B.77, subdivision 7a, that provide increased
coordination, improve access to quality services, and mitigate future cost increases.
The commissioner may seek federal authority to combine Medicare and Medicaid
capitation payments for the purpose of such demonstrations and may contract with
Medicare-approved special needs plans to provide Medicaid services. Medicare funds and
services shall be administered according to the terms and conditions of the federal contract
and demonstration provisions. For the purpose of administering medical assistance funds,
demonstrations under this subdivision are subject to subdivisions 1 to 22. The provisions
of Minnesota Rules, parts 9500.1450 to 9500.1464, apply to these demonstrations,
with the exceptions of parts 9500.1452, subpart 2, item B; and 9500.1457, subpart 1,
items B and C, which do not apply to persons enrolling in demonstrations under this
section. An initial open enrollment period may be provided. Persons who disenroll from
demonstrations under this subdivision remain subject to Minnesota Rules, parts 9500.1450
to 9500.1464. When a person is enrolled in a health plan under these demonstrations and
the health plan's participation is subsequently terminated for any reason, the person shall
be provided an opportunity to select a new health plan and shall have the right to change
health plans within the first 60 days of enrollment in the second health plan. Persons
required to participate in health plans under this section who fail to make a choice of
health plan shall not be randomly assigned to health plans under these demonstrations.
Notwithstanding section 256L.12, subdivision 5, and Minnesota Rules, part 9505.5220,
subpart 1, item A, if adopted, for the purpose of demonstrations under this subdivision,
the commissioner may contract with managed care organizations, including counties, to
serve only elderly persons eligible for medical assistance, elderly and disabled persons, or
disabled persons only. For persons with a primary diagnosis of developmental disability,
serious and persistent mental illness, or serious emotional disturbance, the commissioner
must ensure that the county authority has approved the demonstration and contracting
design. Enrollment in these projects for persons with disabilities shall be voluntary. The
commissioner shall not implement any demonstration project under this subdivision for
persons with a primary diagnosis of developmental disabilities, serious and persistent
mental illness, or serious emotional disturbance, without approval of the county board of
the county in which the demonstration is being implemented.

(b) Notwithstanding chapter 245B, sections 252.40 to 252.46, 256B.092, 256B.501
to 256B.5015, and Minnesota Rules, parts 9525.0004 to 9525.0036, 9525.1200 to
9525.1330, 9525.1580, and 9525.1800 to 9525.1930, the commissioner may implement
under this section projects for persons with developmental disabilities. The commissioner
may capitate payments for ICF/MR services, waivered services for developmental
disabilities, including case management services, day training and habilitation and
alternative active treatment services, and other services as approved by the state and by the
federal government. Case management and active treatment must be individualized and
developed in accordance with a person-centered plan. Costs under these projects may not
exceed costs that would have been incurred under fee-for-service. Beginning July 1, 2003,
and until four years after the pilot project implementation date, subcontractor participation
in the long-term care developmental disability pilot is limited to a nonprofit long-term
care system providing ICF/MR services, home and community-based waiver services,
and in-home services to no more than 120 consumers with developmental disabilities in
Carver, Hennepin, and Scott Counties. The commissioner shall report to the legislature
prior to expansion of the developmental disability pilot project. This paragraph expires
four years after the implementation date of the pilot project.

(c) Before implementation of a demonstration project for disabled persons, the
commissioner must provide information to appropriate committees of the house of
representatives and senate and must involve representatives of affected disability groups
in the design of the demonstration projects.

(d) A nursing facility reimbursed under the alternative reimbursement methodology
in section 256B.434 may, in collaboration with a hospital, clinic, or other health care entity
provide services under paragraph (a). The commissioner shall amend the state plan and
seek any federal waivers necessary to implement this paragraph.

(e) The commissioner, in consultation with the commissioners of commerce and
health, may approve and implement programs for all-inclusive care for the elderly (PACE)
according to federal laws and regulations governing that program and state laws or rules
applicable to participating providers. deleted text begin The process for approval of these programs shall
begin only after the commissioner receives grant money in an amount sufficient to cover
the state share of the administrative and actuarial costs to implement the programs during
state fiscal years 2006 and 2007. Grant amounts for this purpose shall be deposited in an
account in the special revenue fund and are appropriated to the commissioner to be used
solely for the purpose of PACE administrative and actuarial costs.
deleted text end A PACE provider is
not required to be licensed or certified as a health plan company as defined in section
62Q.01, subdivision 4. Persons age 55 and older who have been screened by the county
and found to be eligible for services under the elderly waiver or community alternatives
for disabled individuals or who are already eligible for Medicaid but meet level of
care criteria for receipt of waiver services may choose to enroll in the PACE program.
Medicare and Medicaid services will be provided according to this subdivision and
federal Medicare and Medicaid requirements governing PACE providers and programs.
PACE enrollees will receive Medicaid home and community-based services through the
PACE provider as an alternative to services for which they would otherwise be eligible
through home and community-based waiver programs and Medicaid State Plan Services.
The commissioner shall establish Medicaid rates for PACE providers that do not exceed
costs that would have been incurred under fee-for-service or other relevant managed care
programs operated by the state.

(f) The commissioner shall seek federal approval to expand the Minnesota disability
health options (MnDHO) program established under this subdivision in stages, first to
regional population centers outside the seven-county metro area and then to all areas of
the state. Until July 1, 2009, expansion for MnDHO projects that include home and
community-based services is limited to the two projects and service areas in effect on
March 1, 2006. Enrollment in integrated MnDHO programs that include home and
community-based services shall remain voluntary. Costs for home and community-based
services included under MnDHO must not exceed costs that would have been incurred
under the fee-for-service program. Notwithstanding whether expansion occurs under
this paragraph, in determining MnDHO payment rates and risk adjustment methods deleted text begin for
contract years starting in 2012,
deleted text end the commissioner must consider the methods used to
determine county allocations for home and community-based program participants. If
necessary to reduce MnDHO rates to comply with the provision regarding MnDHO costs

under the community alternatives for disabled individuals waiver at the same level as for

1, 2011, enrollment and operation of the MnDHO program in effect during 2010 shall
cease. The commissioner may reopen the program provided all applicable conditions of
this section are met.
new text end In developing program specifications for expansion of integrated
programs, the commissioner shall involve and consult the state-level stakeholder group
established in subdivision 28, paragraph (d), including consultation on whether and how
to include home and community-based waiver programs. Plans deleted text begin for further expansion ofdeleted text end new text begin to

the license, containing the full names of the parties before and after marriage, and county
and state of residence, with the county seal attached, and make a record of the date of
issuance. The license shall be valid for a period of six months. Except as provided in

illness or other extenuating circumstances, it may be surrendered to the local registrar for
cancellation, and in that case a new license shall issue upon request of the parties of the
original license without fee. A local registrar who knowingly issues or signs a marriage
license in any manner other than as provided in this section shall pay to the parties
aggrieved an amount not to exceed $1,000.

(b) In case of emergency or extraordinary circumstances, a judge of the district court
of the county in which the application is made may authorize the license to be issued at
any time before expiration of the five-day period required under paragraph (a). A waiver
of the five-day waiting period must be in the following form:

that the local registrar is authorized and directed to issue the license forthwith.

.....................................................

................................ (judge of district court)

................................ (date).

premarital education is $40. In order to qualify for the reduced license fee, the parties
must submit at the time of applying for the marriage license a signed, dated, and notarized
statement from the person who provided the premarital education on their letterhead
confirming that it was received. The premarital education must be provided by a licensed
or ordained minister or the minister's designee, a person authorized to solemnize marriages
under section 517.18, or a person authorized to practice marriage and family therapy under

names of the parties as they appear in the marriage license application. Notwithstanding
section 138.17, the educator's statement must be retained for seven years, after which
time it may be destroyed.

(e) If section 259.13 applies to the request for a marriage license, the local registrar
shall grant the marriage license without the requested name change. Alternatively, the local
registrar may delay the granting of the marriage license until the party with the conviction:

(1) certifies under oath that 30 days have passed since service of the notice for a
name change upon the prosecuting authority and, if applicable, the attorney general and no
objection has been filed under section 259.13; or

Section 1.

Minnesota Statutes 2008, section 62J.692, subdivision 4, is amended to read:


Subd. 4.

Distribution of funds.

(a) Following the distribution described under
paragraph (b), the commissioner shall annually distribute the available medical education
funds to all qualifying applicants based on a distribution formula that reflects a summation
of two factors:

(1) a public program volume factor, which is determined by the total volume of
public program revenue received by each training site as a percentage of all public
program revenue received by all training sites in the fund pool; and

(2) a supplemental public program volume factor, which is determined by providing
a supplemental payment of 20 percent of each training site's grant to training sites whose
public program revenue accounted for at least 0.98 percent of the total public program
revenue received by all eligible training sites. Grants to training sites whose public
program revenue accounted for less than 0.98 percent of the total public program revenue
received by all eligible training sites shall be reduced by an amount equal to the total
value of the supplemental payment.

Public program revenue for the distribution formula includes revenue from medical
assistance, prepaid medical assistance, general assistance medical care, and prepaid
general assistance medical care. Training sites that receive no public program revenue
are ineligible for funds available under this subdivision. For purposes of determining
training-site level grants to be distributed under paragraph (a), total statewide average
costs per trainee for medical residents is based on audited clinical training costs per trainee
in primary care clinical medical education programs for medical residents. Total statewide
average costs per trainee for dental residents is based on audited clinical training costs
per trainee in clinical medical education programs for dental students. Total statewide
average costs per trainee for pharmacy residents is based on audited clinical training costs
per trainee in clinical medical education programs for pharmacy students.

(b) $5,350,000 of the available medical education funds shall be distributed as
follows:

(1) $1,475,000 to the University of Minnesota Medical Center-Fairview;

(2) $2,075,000 to the University of Minnesota School of Dentistry; and

(3) $1,800,000 to the Academic Health Center.new text begin $150,000 of the funds distributed to
the Academic Health Center under this paragraph shall be used for a program to assist
internationally trained physicians who are legal residents and who commit to serving
underserved Minnesota communities in a health professional shortage area to successfully
compete for family medicine residency programs at the University of Minnesota.
new text end

(c) Funds distributed shall not be used to displace current funding appropriations
from federal or state sources.

(d) Funds shall be distributed to the sponsoring institutions indicating the amount
to be distributed to each of the sponsor's clinical medical education programs based on
the criteria in this subdivision and in accordance with the commissioner's approval letter.
Each clinical medical education program must distribute funds allocated under paragraph
(a) to the training sites as specified in the commissioner's approval letter. Sponsoring
institutions, which are accredited through an organization recognized by the Department
of Education or the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, may contract directly
with training sites to provide clinical training. To ensure the quality of clinical training,
those accredited sponsoring institutions must:

(1) develop contracts specifying the terms, expectations, and outcomes of the clinical
training conducted at sites; and

(2) take necessary action if the contract requirements are not met. Action may
include the withholding of payments under this section or the removal of students from
the site.

(e) Any funds not distributed in accordance with the commissioner's approval letter
must be returned to the medical education and research fund within 30 days of receiving
notice from the commissioner. The commissioner shall distribute returned funds to the
appropriate training sites in accordance with the commissioner's approval letter.

(f) A maximum of $150,000 of the funds dedicated to the commissioner under
section 297F.10, subdivision 1, clause (2), may be used by the commissioner for
administrative expenses associated with implementing this section.
