plan under paragraph (c). The process must include having trained observers serve as peer
coaches or having teachers participate in professional learning communities, consistent with
paragraph (b).

(b) To develop, improve, and support qualified teachers and effective teaching practices,
improve student learning and success, and provide all enrolled students in a district or school
with improved and equitable access to more effective and diverse teachers, the annual
evaluation process for teachers:

(1) must, for probationary teachers, provide for all evaluations required under subdivision
5;

(2) must establish a three-year professional review cycle for each teacher that includes
an individual growth and development plan, a peer review process, and at least one

(9) must use data from valid and reliable assessments aligned to state and local academic
standards and must use state and local measures of student growth and literacy that may
include value-added models or student learning goals to determine 35 percent of teacher
evaluation results;

(10) must use longitudinal data on student engagement and connection, and other student
outcome measures explicitly aligned with the elements of curriculum for which teachers
are responsible, including academic literacy, oral academic language, and achievement of
content areas of English learners;

(11) must require qualified and trained evaluators such as school administrators to
perform summative evaluations and ensure school districts and charter schools provide for

Association of School Administrators, the Minnesota School Boards Association, the
Minnesota Elementary and Secondary Principals Associations, Education Minnesota, and
representatives of the Minnesota Assessment Group, the Minnesota Business Partnership,
the Minnesota Chamber of Commerce, and Minnesota postsecondary institutions with
research expertise in teacher evaluation, must create and publish a teacher evaluation process
that complies with the requirements in paragraph (b) and applies to all teachers under this
section and section 122A.41 for whom no agreement exists under paragraph (a) for an annual
teacher evaluation and peer review process. The teacher evaluation process created under
this subdivision does not create additional due process rights for probationary teachers under
subdivision 5.

(d) Consistent with the measures of teacher effectiveness under this subdivision:

(1) for students in kindergarten through grade 4, a school administrator must not place
or approve the placement of a student in the classroom of a teacher who is in the improvement
process referenced in paragraph (b), clause (12), or has not had a summative evaluation if,
in the prior year, that student was in the classroom of a teacher who received discipline
pursuant to paragraph (b), clause (13), unless no other teacher at the school teaches that
grade; and

(2) for students in grades 5 through 12, a school administrator must not place or approve
the placement of a student in the classroom of a teacher who is in the improvement process
referenced in paragraph (b), clause (12), or has not had a summative evaluation if, in the
prior year, that student was in the classroom of a teacher who received discipline pursuant
to paragraph (b), clause (13), unless no other teacher at the school teaches that subject area
and grade.

All data created and used under this paragraph retains its classification under chapter 13.

include as part of the performance targets described in paragraph (c) a reduction in the health
plan's emergency department utilization rate for medical assistance and MinnesotaCare
enrollees, as determined by the commissioner. For 2012, the reduction shall be based on
the health plan's utilization in 2009. To earn the return of the withhold each subsequent
year, the managed care plan or county-based purchasing plan must achieve a qualifying
reduction of no less than ten percent of the plan's emergency department utilization rate for
medical assistance and MinnesotaCare enrollees, excluding enrollees in programs described
in subdivisions 23 and 28, compared to the previous measurement year until the final
performance target is reached. When measuring performance, the commissioner must
consider the difference in health risk in a managed care or county-based purchasing plan's
membership in the baseline year compared to the measurement year, and work with the
managed care or county-based purchasing plan to account for differences that they agree
are significant.

The withheld funds must be returned no sooner than July 1 and no later than July 31 of
the following calendar year if the managed care plan or county-based purchasing plan
demonstrates to the satisfaction of the commissioner that a reduction in the utilization rate
was achieved. The commissioner shall structure the withhold so that the commissioner
returns a portion of the withheld funds in amounts commensurate with achieved reductions
in utilization less than the targeted amount.

The withhold described in this paragraph shall continue for each consecutive contract
period until the plan's emergency room utilization rate for state health care program enrollees
is reduced by 25 percent of the plan's emergency room utilization rate for medical assistance
and MinnesotaCare enrollees for calendar year 2009. Hospitals shall cooperate with the
health plans in meeting this performance target and shall accept payment withholds that
may be returned to the hospitals if the performance target is achieved.

(f) Effective for services rendered on or after January 1, 2012, the commissioner shall
include as part of the performance targets described in paragraph (c) a reduction in the plan's
hospitalization admission rate for medical assistance and MinnesotaCare enrollees, as
determined by the commissioner. To earn the return of the withhold each year, the managed
care plan or county-based purchasing plan must achieve a qualifying reduction of no less
than five percent of the plan's hospital admission rate for medical assistance and
MinnesotaCare enrollees, excluding enrollees in programs described in subdivisions 23 and
28, compared to the previous calendar year until the final performance target is reached.
When measuring performance, the commissioner must consider the difference in health risk
in a managed care or county-based purchasing plan's membership in the baseline year
compared to the measurement year, and work with the managed care or county-based
purchasing plan to account for differences that they agree are significant.

The withheld funds must be returned no sooner than July 1 and no later than July 31 of
the following calendar year if the managed care plan or county-based purchasing plan
demonstrates to the satisfaction of the commissioner that this reduction in the hospitalization
rate was achieved. The commissioner shall structure the withhold so that the commissioner
returns a portion of the withheld funds in amounts commensurate with achieved reductions
in utilization less than the targeted amount.

The withhold described in this paragraph shall continue until there is a 25 percent
reduction in the hospital admission rate compared to the hospital admission rates in calendar
year 2011, as determined by the commissioner. The hospital admissions in this performance
target do not include the admissions applicable to the subsequent hospital admission
performance target under paragraph (g). Hospitals shall cooperate with the plans in meeting
this performance target and shall accept payment withholds that may be returned to the
hospitals if the performance target is achieved.

(g) Effective for services rendered on or after January 1, 2012, the commissioner shall
include as part of the performance targets described in paragraph (c) a reduction in the plan's
hospitalization admission rates for subsequent hospitalizations within 30 days of a previous
hospitalization of a patient regardless of the reason, for medical assistance and MinnesotaCare
enrollees, as determined by the commissioner. To earn the return of the withhold each year,
the managed care plan or county-based purchasing plan must achieve a qualifying reduction
of the subsequent hospitalization rate for medical assistance and MinnesotaCare enrollees,
excluding enrollees in programs described in subdivisions 23 and 28, of no less than five
percent compared to the previous calendar year until the final performance target is reached.

The withheld funds must be returned no sooner than July 1 and no later than July 31 of
the following calendar year if the managed care plan or county-based purchasing plan
demonstrates to the satisfaction of the commissioner that a qualifying reduction in the
subsequent hospitalization rate was achieved. The commissioner shall structure the withhold
so that the commissioner returns a portion of the withheld funds in amounts commensurate
with achieved reductions in utilization less than the targeted amount.

The withhold described in this paragraph must continue for each consecutive contract
period until the plan's subsequent hospitalization rate for medical assistance and
MinnesotaCare enrollees, excluding enrollees in programs described in subdivisions 23 and
28, is reduced by 25 percent of the plan's subsequent hospitalization rate for calendar year
2011. Hospitals shall cooperate with the plans in meeting this performance target and shall
accept payment withholds that must be returned to the hospitals if the performance target
is achieved.

(h) Effective for services rendered on or after January 1, 2013, through December 31,
2013, the commissioner shall withhold 4.5 percent of managed care plan payments under
this section and county-based purchasing plan payments under section 256B.692 for the
prepaid medical assistance program. The withheld funds must be returned no sooner than
July 1 and no later than July 31 of the following year. The commissioner may exclude
special demonstration projects under subdivision 23.

(i) Effective for services rendered on or after January 1, 2014, the commissioner shall
withhold three percent of managed care plan payments under this section and county-based

program. The withheld funds must be returned no sooner than July 1 and no later than July
31 of the following year. The commissioner may exclude special demonstration projects
under subdivision 23.

(j) A managed care plan or a county-based purchasing plan under section 256B.692 may
include as admitted assets under section 62D.044 any amount withheld under this section
that is reasonably expected to be returned.

(k) Contracts between the commissioner and a prepaid health plan are exempt from the
set-aside and preference provisions of section 16C.16, subdivisions 6, paragraph (a), and
7.

(l) The return of the withhold under paragraphs (h) and (i) is not subject to the
requirements of paragraph (c).

(m) Managed care plans and county-based purchasing plans shall maintain current and
fully executed agreements for all subcontractors, including bargaining groups, for
administrative services that are expensed to the state's public health care programs.
Subcontractor agreements determined to be material, as defined by the commissioner after
taking into account state contracting and relevant statutory requirements, must be in the
form of a written instrument or electronic document containing the elements of offer,
acceptance, consideration, payment terms, scope, duration of the contract, and how the
subcontractor services relate to state public health care programs. Upon request, the
commissioner shall have access to all subcontractor documentation under this paragraph.
Nothing in this paragraph shall allow release of information that is nonpublic data pursuant
to section 13.02.

of the MSA equivalent rate in addition to those currently covered under a housing support
agreement if the additional beds are only a replacement of beds with rates in excess of the
MSA equivalent rate which have been made available due to closure of a setting, a change
of licensure or certification which removes the beds from housing support payment, or as
a result of the downsizing of a setting authorized for recipients of housing support. The
transfer of available beds from one agency to another can only occur by the agreement of
both agencies.

determine. An applicant must report any offers of employment refused during the eight
calendar weeks before the date of the application for unemployment benefits and the name
of the employer that made the offer. An applicant's failure to report the name of an employer,

any issue of ineligibility. An employer must be informed of the effect that failure to raise
an issue of ineligibility as a result of a quit or discharge of the applicant, as provided for
under subdivision 2, paragraph (b), may have on the employer under section 268.047.

(c) Each applicant must report any employment, and loss of employment, and offers of
employment refused, during those weeks the applicant filed continued requests for
unemployment benefits under section 268.0865. Each applicant who stops filing continued
requests during the benefit year and later begins filing continued requests during that same
benefit year must report the name of any employer the applicant worked for during the
period between the filing of continued requests and the reason the applicant stopped working
for the employer. The applicant must report any offers of employment refused during the
period between the filing of continued requests for unemployment benefits. Those employers
from which the applicant has reported a loss of employment under this paragraph must be
notified by mail or electronic transmission and provided an opportunity to raise, in a manner
prescribed by the commissioner, any issue of ineligibility. An employer must be informed
of the effect that failure to raise an issue of ineligibility as a result of a quit or a discharge
of the applicant may have on the employer under section 268.047.

(d) The purpose for requiring the applicant to report the name of employers and the
reason for no longer working for those employers, or offers of employment refused, under
paragraphs (a) and (c) is for the commissioner to obtain information from an applicant
raising all issues that may result in the applicant being ineligible for unemployment benefits
under section 268.095, because of a quit or discharge, or the applicant being ineligible for
unemployment benefits under section 268.085, subdivision 13c. If the reason given by the
applicant for no longer working for an employer is other than a layoff because of lack of
work, that raises an issue of ineligibility and the applicant is required, as part of the
determination process under subdivision 2, paragraph (a), to state all the facts about the
cause for no longer working for the employer, if known. If the applicant fails or refuses to
provide any required information, the applicant is ineligible for unemployment benefits
under section 268.085, subdivision 2, until the applicant provides this required information.

dependent care credit for which the taxpayer is eligible pursuant to the provisions of section
21 of the Internal Revenue Code except that in determining whether the child qualified as

deemed to have paid employment-related expenses. If the child is 16 months old or younger
at the close of the taxable year, the amount of expenses deemed to have been paid equals
the maximum limit for one qualified individual under section 21(c) and (d) of the Internal
Revenue Code. If the child is older than 16 months of age but has not attained the age of

same number of hours of care.

(2) files a joint tax return for the taxable year; and

qualified individual under section 21(c) and (d) of the Internal Revenue Code will be deemed
to be the employment related expense paid for that child. The earned income limitation of
section 21(d) of the Internal Revenue Code shall not apply to this deemed amount. These
deemed amounts apply regardless of whether any employment-related expenses have been
paid.

(d) If the taxpayer is not required and does not file a federal individual income tax return
for the tax year, no credit is allowed for any amount paid to any person unless:

(1) the name, address, and taxpayer identification number of the person are included on
the return claiming the credit; or

(2) if the person is an organization described in section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue
Code and exempt from tax under section 501(a) of the Internal Revenue Code, the name

not subject to tax under this chapter including earned income excluded pursuant to section
290.0132, subdivision 10, the credit determined under section 21 of the Internal Revenue
Code must be allocated based on the ratio by which the earned income of the claimant and

and the claimant's spouse.

chapter."

(h) For taxpayers with federal adjusted gross income in excess of $50,000, the credit is
equal to the lesser of the credit otherwise calculated under this subdivision, or the amount
equal to $600 minus five percent of federal adjusted gross income in excess of $50,000 for
taxpayers with one qualified individual, or $1,200 minus five percent of federal adjusted
gross income in excess of $50,000 for taxpayers with two or more qualified individuals,
but in no case is the credit less than zero.

Sec. 101.

Minnesota Statutes 2016, section 518A.39, subdivision 2, is amended to read:


Subd. 2.

Modification.

(a) The terms of an order respecting maintenance or support
may be modified upon a showing of one or more of the following, any of which makes the
terms unreasonable and unfair: (1) substantially increased or decreased gross income of an
obligor or obligee; (2) substantially increased or decreased need of an obligor or obligee or
the child or children that are the subject of these proceedings; (3) receipt of assistance under
the AFDC program formerly codified under sections 256.72 to 256.87 or 256B.01 to 256B.40,
or chapter 256J or 256K; (4) a change in the cost of living for either party as measured by
the Federal Bureau of Labor Statistics; (5) extraordinary medical expenses of the child not
provided for under section 518A.41; (6) a change in the availability of appropriate health
care coverage or a substantial increase or decrease in health care coverage costs; (7) the
addition of work-related or education-related child care expenses of the obligee or a
substantial increase or decrease in existing work-related or education-related child care
expenses; or (8) upon the emancipation of the child, as provided in subdivision 5.

(b) It is presumed that there has been a substantial change in circumstances under
paragraph (a) and the terms of a current support order shall be rebuttably presumed to be
unreasonable and unfair if:

(1) the application of the child support guidelines in section 518A.35, to the current
circumstances of the parties results in a calculated court order that is at least 20 percent and
at least $75 per month higher or lower than the current support order or, if the current support
order is less than $75, it results in a calculated court order that is at least 20 percent per
month higher or lower;

(2) the medical support provisions of the order established under section 518A.41 are
not enforceable by the public authority or the obligee;

(3) health coverage ordered under section 518A.41 is not available to the child for whom
the order is established by the parent ordered to provide;

(4) the existing support obligation is in the form of a statement of percentage and not a
specific dollar amount;

(5) the gross income of an obligor or obligee has decreased by at least 20 percent through
no fault or choice of the party; or

(6) a deviation was granted based on the factor in section 518A.43, subdivision 1, clause
(4), and the child no longer resides in a foreign country or the factor is otherwise no longer
applicable.

(c) A child support order is not presumptively modifiable solely because an obligor or
obligee becomes responsible for the support of an additional nonjoint child, which is born
after an existing order. Section 518A.33 shall be considered if other grounds are alleged
which allow a modification of support.

(d) If child support was established by applying a parenting expense adjustment or
presumed equal parenting time calculation under previously existing child support guidelines
and there is no parenting plan or order from which overnights or overnight equivalents can
be determined, there is a rebuttable presumption that the established adjustment or calculation
will continue after modification so long as the modification is not based on a change in
parenting time. In determining an obligation under previously existing child support
guidelines, it is presumed that the court shall:

(1) if a 12 percent parenting expense adjustment was applied, multiply the obligor's
share of the combined basic support obligation calculated under section 518A.34, paragraph
(b), clause (5), by 0.88; or

(2) if the parenting time was presumed equal but the parents' parental incomes for
determining child support were not equal:

(i) multiply the combined basic support obligation under section 518A.34, paragraph
(b), clause (5), by deleted text begin 0.075deleted text end new text begin 0.75new text end ;

(ii) prorate the amount under item (i) between the parents based on each parent's
proportionate share of the combined PICS; and

(iii) subtract the lower amount from the higher amount.

(e) On a motion for modification of maintenance, including a motion for the extension
of the duration of a maintenance award, the court shall apply, in addition to all other relevant
factors, the factors for an award of maintenance under section 518.552 that exist at the time
of the motion. On a motion for modification of support, the court:

(1) shall apply section 518A.35, and shall not consider the financial circumstances of
each party's spouse, if any; and

(2) shall not consider compensation received by a party for employment in excess of a
40-hour work week, provided that the party demonstrates, and the court finds, that:

(i) the excess employment began after entry of the existing support order;

(ii) the excess employment is voluntary and not a condition of employment;

(iii) the excess employment is in the nature of additional, part-time employment, or
overtime employment compensable by the hour or fractions of an hour;

(iv) the party's compensation structure has not been changed for the purpose of affecting
a support or maintenance obligation;

(v) in the case of an obligor, current child support payments are at least equal to the
guidelines amount based on income not excluded under this clause; and

(vi) in the case of an obligor who is in arrears in child support payments to the obligee,
any net income from excess employment must be used to pay the arrearages until the
arrearages are paid in full.

(f) A modification of support or maintenance, including interest that accrued pursuant
to section 548.091, may be made retroactive only with respect to any period during which
the petitioning party has pending a motion for modification but only from the date of service
of notice of the motion on the responding party and on the public authority if public assistance
is being furnished or the county attorney is the attorney of record, unless the court adopts
an alternative effective date under paragraph (l). The court's adoption of an alternative
effective date under paragraph (l) shall not be considered a retroactive modification of
maintenance or support.

(g) Except for an award of the right of occupancy of the homestead, provided in section
518.63, all divisions of real and personal property provided by section 518.58 shall be final,
and may be revoked or modified only where the court finds the existence of conditions that
justify reopening a judgment under the laws of this state, including motions under section
518.145, subdivision 2. The court may impose a lien or charge on the divided property at
any time while the property, or subsequently acquired property, is owned by the parties or
either of them, for the payment of maintenance or support money, or may sequester the
property as is provided by section 518A.71.

(h) The court need not hold an evidentiary hearing on a motion for modification of
maintenance or support.

(i) Sections 518.14 and 518A.735 shall govern the award of attorney fees for motions
brought under this subdivision.

(j) Except as expressly provided, an enactment, amendment, or repeal of law does not
constitute a substantial change in the circumstances for purposes of modifying a child support
order.

(k) On the first modification following implementation of amended child support
guidelines, the modification of basic support may be limited if the amount of the full variance
would create hardship for either the obligor or the obligee. Hardship includes, but is not
limited to, eligibility for assistance under chapter 256J.

(l) The court may select an alternative effective date for a maintenance or support order
if the parties enter into a binding agreement for an alternative effective date.

Health and Human Services;

(2) employ or contract for clinic staff who have backgrounds in diverse disciplines,
including licensed mental health professionals, and staff who are culturally and linguistically
trained to serve the needs of the clinic's patient population;

(3) ensure that clinic services are available and accessible to patients of all ages and
genders and that crisis management services are available 24 hours per day;

(4) establish fees for clinic services for nonmedical assistance patients using a sliding
fee scale that ensures that services to patients are not denied or limited due to a patient's
inability to pay for services;

(5) comply with quality assurance reporting requirements and other reporting
requirements, including any required reporting of encounter data, clinical outcomes data,
and quality data;

(6) provide crisis mental health services, withdrawal management services, emergency
crisis intervention services, and stabilization services; screening, assessment, and diagnosis
services, including risk assessments and level of care determinations; patient-centered
treatment planning; outpatient mental health and substance use services; targeted case
management; psychiatric rehabilitation services; peer support and counselor services and
family support services; and intensive community-based mental health services, including
mental health services for members of the armed forces and veterans;

(7) provide coordination of care across settings and providers to ensure seamless
transitions for patients across the full spectrum of health services, including acute, chronic,
and behavioral needs. Care coordination may be accomplished through partnerships or
formal contracts with:

(i) counties, health plans, pharmacists, pharmacies, rural health clinics, federally qualified
health centers, inpatient psychiatric facilities, substance use and detoxification facilities, or
community-based mental health providers; and

(ii) other community services, supports, and providers, including schools, child welfare

(10) comply with standards relating to mental health services in Minnesota Rules, parts
9505.0370 to 9505.0372;

(11) be licensed to provide chemical dependency treatment under deleted text begin Minnesota Rules, parts
9530.6405 to 9530.6505
deleted text end new text begin chapter 245Gnew text end ;

(12) be certified to provide children's therapeutic services and supports under section
256B.0943;

256B.0623;

Rules, parts 9520.0900 to 9520.0926; and

(17) provide services that comply with the evidence-based practices described in
paragraph (e).

(b) If an entity is unable to provide one or more of the services listed in paragraph (a),
clauses (6) to (17), the commissioner may certify the entity as a CCBHC, if the entity has
a current contract with another entity that has the required authority to provide that service
and that meets federal CCBHC criteria as a designated collaborating organization, or, to
the extent allowed by the federal CCBHC criteria, the commissioner may approve a referral
arrangement. The CCBHC must meet federal requirements regarding the type and scope of
services to be provided directly by the CCBHC.

(c) Notwithstanding any other law that requires a county contract or other form of county
approval for certain services listed in paragraph (a), clause (6), a clinic that otherwise meets
CCBHC requirements may receive the prospective payment under paragraph (f) for those
services without a county contract or county approval. There is no county share when
medical assistance pays the CCBHC prospective payment. As part of the certification process
in paragraph (a), the commissioner shall require a letter of support from the CCBHC's host
county confirming that the CCBHC and the county or counties it serves have an ongoing
relationship to facilitate access and continuity of care, especially for individuals who are
uninsured or who may go on and off medical assistance.

(d) When the standards listed in paragraph (a) or other applicable standards conflict or
address similar issues in duplicative or incompatible ways, the commissioner may grant
variances to state requirements if the variances do not conflict with federal requirements.
If standards overlap, the commissioner may substitute all or a part of a licensure or
certification that is substantially the same as another licensure or certification. The
commissioner shall consult with stakeholders, as described in subdivision 4, before granting
variances under this provision.

(e) The commissioner shall issue a list of required evidence-based practices to be
delivered by CCBHCs, and may also provide a list of recommended evidence-based practices.
The commissioner may update the list to reflect advances in outcomes research and medical
services for persons living with mental illnesses or substance use disorders. The commissioner
shall take into consideration the adequacy of evidence to support the efficacy of the practice,
the quality of workforce available, and the current availability of the practice in the state.
At least 30 days before issuing the initial list and any revisions, the commissioner shall
provide stakeholders with an opportunity to comment.

(f) The commissioner shall establish standards and methodologies for a prospective
payment system for medical assistance payments for services delivered by certified
community behavioral health clinics, in accordance with guidance issued by the Centers
for Medicare and Medicaid Services. During the operation of the demonstration project,
payments shall comply with federal requirements for an enhanced federal medical assistance
percentage. The commissioner may include quality bonus payment in the prospective
payment system based on federal criteria and on a clinic's provision of the evidence-based
practices in paragraph (e). The prospective payment system does not apply to MinnesotaCare.
Implementation of the prospective payment system is effective July 1, 2017, or upon federal
approval, whichever is later.

(g) The commissioner shall seek federal approval to continue federal financial
participation in payment for CCBHC services after the federal demonstration period ends
for clinics that were certified as CCBHCs during the demonstration period and that continue
to meet the CCBHC certification standards in paragraph (a). Payment for CCBHC services
shall cease effective July 1, 2019, if continued federal financial participation for the payment
of CCBHC services cannot be obtained.

(h) The commissioner may certify at least one CCBHC located in an urban area and at
least one CCBHC located in a rural area, as defined by federal criteria. To the extent allowed
by federal law, the commissioner may limit the number of certified clinics so that the
projected claims for certified clinics will not exceed the funds budgeted for this purpose.
The commissioner shall give preference to clinics that:

(1) provide a comprehensive range of services and evidence-based practices for all age
groups, with services being fully coordinated and integrated; and

(2) enhance the state's ability to meet the federal priorities to be selected as a CCBHC
demonstration state.

(i) The commissioner shall recertify CCBHCs at least every three years. The
commissioner shall establish a process for decertification and shall require corrective action,
medical assistance repayment, or decertification of a CCBHC that no longer meets the
requirements in this section or that fails to meet the standards provided by the commissioner
in the application and certification process.
