36.29 	balance remaining in the first year
36.30 	does not cancel and is available for

36.32 	may be used for grants to local units
36.33 	of government for the purpose of
36.34 	restoring impaired waters listed under
36.35 	section 303(d) of the federal Clean

36.42 	$2,324,000 the first year and
36.43 	$2,324,000 the second year must be
36.44 	distributed as grants to delegated
36.45 	counties to administer the county
36.46 	feedlot program.  Distribution of the
36.47 	funds must be conducted according to
36.48 	the following three-part formula:
36.49 	(1) Number of feedlots in the county:
36.50 	60 percent of the total appropriation
36.51 	must be distributed according to the
36.52 	number of feedlots that are required to
36.53 	be registered in the county.  Grants
37.1 	awarded under this clause must be
37.2 	matched with a combination of local
37.3 	cash and in-kind contributions.
37.4 	(2) Minimum program requirements:  25
37.5 	percent of the total appropriation must
37.6 	be distributed based on the county (i)
37.7 	conducting an annual number of
37.8 	inspections at feedlots that is equal
37.9 	to or greater than seven percent of the
37.10 	total number of registered feedlots
37.11 	that are required to be registered in
37.12 	the county; and (ii) meeting
37.13 	noninspection minimum program
37.14 	requirements as identified in the
37.15 	county feedlot workplan form.  Counties
37.16 	that do not meet the inspection
37.17 	requirement must not receive 50 percent
37.18 	of the eligible funding under this
37.19 	clause.  Counties must receive funding
37.20 	for noninspection requirements under
37.21 	this clause according to a scoring
37.22 	system checklist administered by the
37.23 	department.  The commissioner, in
37.24 	consultation with the Minnesota
37.25 	Association of County Feedlot Officers
37.26 	executive team, shall make a final
37.27 	decision regarding any appeal by a
37.28 	county regarding the terms and
37.29 	conditions of this clause.
37.30 	(3) Performance credits:  15 percent of
37.31 	the total appropriation must be
37.32 	distributed according to work that has
37.33 	been done by the counties during the
37.34 	fiscal year.  The amount must be
37.35 	determined by the number of performance
37.36 	credits a county accumulates during the
37.37 	year based on a performance credit
37.38 	matrix jointly agreed upon by the
37.39 	commissioner in consultation with the
37.40 	Minnesota Association of County Feedlot
37.41 	Officers executive team.  To receive an
37.42 	award under this clause the county must
37.43 	meet the requirements of clause (2)(i)
37.44 	and achieve 90 percent of the
37.45 	requirements according to clause
37.46 	(2)(ii) of the formula.  The rate of
37.47 	reimbursement per performance credit
37.48 	item must not exceed $200.
37.49 	Delegated counties are eligible for a
37.50 	minimum grant of $7,500.  To receive
37.51 	the full $7,500 amount a county must
37.52 	meet the requirements under clause (2)
37.53 	of the formula.  Nondelegated counties
37.54 	that apply for delegation shall receive
37.55 	a grant prorated according to the
37.56 	number of full quarters remaining in
37.57 	the program year from the date of
37.58 	commissioner approval of the
37.59 	delegation.  Funds for awards to any
37.60 	newly delegated counties must be made
37.61 	out of the appropriation reserved for
37.62 	clause (3) of the formula.  The
37.63 	commissioner, in consultation with the
37.64 	Minnesota Association of County Feedlot
37.65 	Officers executive team, may decide to
37.66 	use funds reserved for clause (3) of
37.67 	the formula in an amount not to exceed
37.68 	five percent of the total annual
38.1 	appropriation for initiatives to
38.2 	enhance existing delegated county
38.3 	feedlot programs, information and
38.4 	education, or technical assistance
38.5 	efforts to reduce feedlot-related
38.6 	pollution hazards.  Any funds remaining
38.7 	after distribution under clauses (1)
38.8 	and (2) of the formula must be
38.9 	transferred to clause (3) of the
38.10 	formula.  Any money remaining after the
38.11 	first year is available for the second
38.12 	year.

136.40 	Section 1. Minnesota Statutes 2004, section 256.975,
137.1 	subdivision 9, is amended to read:
137.2 		Subd. 9.Prescription drug assistance. (a) The Minnesota
137.3 	Board on Aging shall establish and administer a prescription
137.4 	drug assistance program to assist individuals in accessing
137.5 	programs offered by pharmaceutical manufacturers that provide
137.6 	free or discounted prescription drugs or provide coverage for
137.7 	prescription drugs.  The board shall use computer software
137.8 	programs to:
137.9 	(1) list eligibility requirements for pharmaceutical
137.10 	assistance programs offered by manufacturers;
137.11 	(2) list drugs that are included in a supplemental rebate
137.12 	contract between the commissioner and a pharmaceutical
137.13 	manufacturer under section 256.01, subdivision 2, clause (23);
137.14 	and
137.15 	(3) link individuals with the pharmaceutical assistance
137.16 	programs most appropriate for the individual.  The board shall
137.17 	make information on the prescription drug assistance program
137.18 	available to interested individuals and health care providers
137.19 	and shall coordinate the program with the statewide information
137.20 	and assistance service provided through the Senior LinkAge Line
137.21 	under subdivision 7.
137.22 	(b) The board shall work with the commissioner and county
137.23 	social service agencies to coordinate the enrollment of
137.24 	individuals who are referred to the prescription drug assistance
137.25 	program from the prescription drug program, as required under
137.26 	section 256.955, subdivision 4a.
137.27 	
EFFECTIVE DATE. This section is effective January 1, 2006.

137.28 	Sec. 2. Minnesota Statutes 2004, section 256B.0595,
137.29 	subdivision 2, is amended to read:
137.30 		Subd. 2.Period of ineligibility.  (a) For any
137.31 	uncompensated transfer occurring on or before August 10, 1993,
137.32 	the number of months of ineligibility for long-term care
137.33 	services shall be the lesser of 30 months, or the uncompensated
137.34 	transfer amount divided by the average medical assistance rate
137.35 	for nursing facility services in the state in effect on the date
137.36 	of application.  The amount used to calculate the average
138.1 	medical assistance payment rate shall be adjusted each July 1 to
138.2 	reflect payment rates for the previous calendar year.  The
138.3 	period of ineligibility begins with the month in which the
138.4 	assets were transferred.  If the transfer was not reported to
138.5 	the local agency at the time of application, and the applicant
138.6 	received long-term care services during what would have been the
138.7 	period of ineligibility if the transfer had been reported, a
138.8 	cause of action exists against the transferee for the cost of
138.9 	long-term care services provided during the period of
138.10 	ineligibility, or for the uncompensated amount of the transfer,
138.11 	whichever is less.  The action may be brought by the state or
138.12 	the local agency responsible for providing medical assistance
138.13 	under chapter 256G.  The uncompensated transfer amount is the
138.14 	fair market value of the asset at the time it was given away,
138.15 	sold, or disposed of, less the amount of compensation received.
138.16 	(b) For uncompensated transfers made after August 10, 1993,
138.17 	the number of months of ineligibility for long-term care
138.18 	services shall be the total uncompensated value of the resources
138.19 	transferred divided by the average medical assistance rate for
138.20 	nursing facility services in the state in effect on the date of
138.21 	application.  The amount used to calculate the average medical
138.22 	assistance payment rate shall be adjusted each July 1 to reflect
138.23 	payment rates for the previous calendar year.  The period of
138.24 	ineligibility begins with the first day of the month after the
138.25 	month in which the assets were transferred except that if one or
138.26 	more uncompensated transfers are made during a period of
138.27 	ineligibility, the total assets transferred during the
138.28 	ineligibility period shall be combined and a penalty period
138.29 	calculated to begin on the first day of the month after the
138.30 	month in which the first uncompensated transfer was made.  If
138.31 	the transfer was reported to the local agency after the date
138.32 	that advance notice of a period of ineligibility that affects
138.33 	the next month could be provided to the recipient and the
138.34 	recipient received medical assistance services or the transfer
138.35 	was not reported to the local agency, and the applicant or
138.36 	recipient received medical assistance services during what would
139.1 	have been the period of ineligibility if the transfer had been
139.2 	reported, a cause of action exists against the transferee for
139.3 	the cost of medical assistance services provided during the
139.4 	period of ineligibility, or for the uncompensated amount of the
139.5 	transfer, whichever is less.  The action may be brought by the
139.6 	state or the local agency responsible for providing medical
139.7 	assistance under chapter 256G.  The uncompensated transfer
139.8 	amount is the fair market value of the asset at the time it was
139.9 	given away, sold, or disposed of, less the amount of
139.10 	compensation received.  Effective for transfers made on or after
139.11 	March 1, 1996, involving persons who apply for medical
139.12 	assistance on or after April 13, 1996, no cause of action exists
139.13 	for a transfer unless:
139.14 	(1) the transferee knew or should have known that the
139.15 	transfer was being made by a person who was a resident of a
139.16 	long-term care facility or was receiving that level of care in
139.17 	the community at the time of the transfer;
139.18 	(2) the transferee knew or should have known that the
139.19 	transfer was being made to assist the person to qualify for or
139.20 	retain medical assistance eligibility; or
139.21 	(3) the transferee actively solicited the transfer with
139.22 	intent to assist the person to qualify for or retain eligibility
139.23 	for medical assistance.
139.24 	(c) If a calculation of a penalty period results in a
139.25 	partial month, payments for long-term care services shall be
139.26 	reduced in an amount equal to the fraction, except that in
139.27 	calculating the value of uncompensated transfers, if the total
139.28 	value of all uncompensated transfers made in a month not
139.29 	included in an existing penalty period does not exceed $200,
139.30 	then such transfers shall be disregarded for each month prior to
139.31 	the month of application for or during receipt of medical
139.32 	assistance.
139.33 	
EFFECTIVE DATE. This section is effective for transfers
139.34 	occurring on or after July 1, 2005.

140.19 	Policy Committee consists of:
140.20 	(1) seven voting members who are licensed physicians
140.21 	actively engaged in the practice of medicine in Minnesota, one
140.22 	of whom must be actively engaged in the treatment of persons

140.30 	Minnesota;
140.31 	(3) the commissioner's medical director who shall serve as
140.32 	a nonvoting member; and 
140.33 	(4) one consumer who shall serve as a voting member.
140.34 	Members of the Medical Policy Committee shall not be
140.35 	employed by the Department of Human Services, except for the

141.1 	Sec. 5. Minnesota Statutes 2004, section 256B.0625, is
141.2 	amended by adding a subdivision to read:
141.3 		Subd. 3e.Medical policy committee terms and
141.4 	compensation. Committee members shall serve staggered

141.9 	$200 per meeting and reimbursement for mileage and parking shall
141.10 	be paid to each committee member in attendance except the

141.36 	necessary, appropriate, and cost-effective for the treatment of

142.11 	(d) Effective January 1, 2006, medical assistance shall not
142.12 	cover drugs that are coverable under Medicare Part D as defined

143.2 	must be compounded by the pharmacist shall be $8 per bag, $14
143.3 	per bag for cancer chemotherapy products, and $30 per bag for
143.4 	total parenteral nutritional products dispensed in one liter

143.9 	a drug shall be estimated by the commissioner, at average
143.10 	wholesale price minus 11.5 percent, except that where a drug has
143.11 	had its wholesale price reduced as a result of the actions of
143.12 	the National Association of Medicaid Fraud Control Units, the
143.13 	estimated actual acquisition cost shall be the reduced average
143.14 	wholesale price, without the 11.5 percent deduction. The actual
143.15 	acquisition cost of antihemophilic factor drugs shall be
143.16 	estimated at the average wholesale price minus 30 percent.The
143.17 	maximum allowable cost of a multisource drug may be set by the
143.18 	commissioner and it shall be comparable to, but no higher than,
143.19 	the maximum amount paid by other third-party payors in this
143.20 	state who have maximum allowable cost programs.  Establishment
143.21 	of the amount of payment for drugs shall not be subject to the
143.22 	requirements of the Administrative Procedure Act.
143.23 	(b) An additional dispensing fee of $.30 may be added to
143.24 	the dispensing fee paid to pharmacists for legend drug
143.25 	prescriptions dispensed to residents of long-term care
143.26 	facilities when a unit dose blister card system, approved by the
143.27 	department, is used.  Under this type of dispensing system, the
143.28 	pharmacist must dispense a 30-day supply of drug.  The National
143.29 	Drug Code (NDC) from the drug container used to fill the blister
143.30 	card must be identified on the claim to the department.  The
143.31 	unit dose blister card containing the drug must meet the
143.32 	packaging standards set forth in Minnesota Rules, part
143.33 	6800.2700, that govern the return of unused drugs to the
143.34 	pharmacy for reuse.  The pharmacy provider will be required to
143.35 	credit the department for the actual acquisition cost of all
143.36 	unused drugs that are eligible for reuse.  Over-the-counter
144.1 	medications must be dispensed in the manufacturer's unopened
144.2 	package.  The commissioner may permit the drug clozapine to be
144.3 	dispensed in a quantity that is less than a 30-day supply.
144.4 	(c) Whenever a generically equivalent product is available,
144.5 	payment shall be on the basis of the actual acquisition cost of
144.6 	the generic drug, or on the maximum allowable cost established
144.7 	by the commissioner.
144.8 	(d) The basis for determining the amount of payment for
144.9 	drugs administered in an outpatient setting shall be the lower
144.10 	of the usual and customary cost submitted by the provider, the
144.11 	average wholesale price minus five percent, or the maximum
144.12 	allowable cost set by the federal government under United States
144.13 	Code, title 42, chapter 7, section 1396r-8(e), and Code of
144.14 	Federal Regulations, title 42, section 447.332, or by the
144.15 	commissioner under paragraphs (a) to (c) or the amount
144.16 	established for Medicare by the United States Department of
144.17 	Health and Human Services pursuant to title XVIII, section 1847a
144.18 	of the federal Social Security Act.
144.19 	(e) The commissioner may negotiate lower reimbursement
144.20 	rates for specialty pharmacy products than the rates specified
144.21 	in paragraph (a).  The commissioner may require individuals
144.22 	enrolled in the health care programs administered by the
144.23 	department to obtain specialty pharmacy products from providers
144.24 	with whom the commissioner has negotiated lower reimbursement
144.25 	rates.  Specialty pharmacy products are defined as those used by
144.26 	a small number of recipients or recipients with complex and
144.27 	chronic diseases that require expensive and challenging drug
144.28 	regimens.  Examples of these conditions include, but are not
144.29 	limited to:  multiple sclerosis, HIV/AIDS, transplantation,
144.30 	hepatitis C, growth hormone deficiency, Crohn's Disease,
144.31 	rheumatoid arthritis, and certain forms of cancer.  Specialty
144.32 	pharmaceutical products include injectable and infusion
144.33 	therapies, biotechnology drugs, high-cost therapies, and
144.34 	therapies that require complex care.  The commissioner shall
144.35 	consult with the formulary committee to develop a list of
144.36 	specialty pharmacy products subject to this paragraph.

145.13 	directly to the commissioner.  The commissioner may also request
145.14 	that the Formulary Committee review a drug for prior
145.15 	authorization.  Before the commissioner may require prior
145.16 	authorization for a drug:
145.17 	(1) the commissioner must provide information to the

145.21 	to clinical abuse or misuse, and relevant data from the state
145.22 	Medicaid program if such data is available;
145.23 	(2) the Formulary Committee must review the drug, taking
145.24 	into account medical and clinical data and the information
145.25 	provided by the commissioner; and
145.26 	(3) the Formulary Committee must hold a public forum and
145.27 	receive public comment for an additional 15 days.

145.30 	(c) Prior authorization shall not be required or utilized
145.31 	for any atypical antipsychotic drug prescribed for the treatment
145.32 	of mental illness if:
145.33 	(1) there is no generically equivalent drug available; and
145.34 	(2) the drug was initially prescribed for the recipient
145.35 	prior to July 1, 2003; or
145.36 	(3) the drug is part of the recipient's current course of
146.1 	treatment.

146.3 	supplemental drug rebate program established or administered by
146.4 	the commissioner.
146.5 	(d) Prior authorization shall not be required or utilized
146.6 	for any antihemophilic factor drug prescribed for the treatment
146.7 	of hemophilia and blood disorders where there is no generically
146.8 	equivalent drug available if the prior authorization is used in
146.9 	conjunction with any supplemental drug rebate program or
146.10 	multistate preferred drug list established or administered by
146.11 	the commissioner.  This paragraph expires July 1, 2005.
146.12 	(e) The commissioner may require prior authorization for
146.13 	brand name drugs whenever a generically equivalent product is
146.14 	available, even if the prescriber specifically indicates
146.15 	"dispense as written-brand necessary" on the prescription as
146.16 	required by section 151.21, subdivision 2.
146.17 	(f) Notwithstanding this subdivision, the commissioner may
146.18 	automatically require prior authorization, for a period not to
146.19 	exceed 180 days, for any drug that is approved by the United
146.20 	States Food and Drug Administration on or after July 1, 2005.
146.21 	The 180-day period begins no later than the first day that a
146.22 	drug is available for shipment to pharmacies within the state.
146.23 	The Formulary Committee shall recommend to the commissioner
146.24 	general criteria to be used for the prior authorization of the
146.25 	drugs, but the committee is not required to review each
146.26 	individual drug.  In order to continue prior authorizations for
146.27 	a drug after the 180-day period has expired, the commissioner
146.28 	must follow provisions of this subdivision.
