Synopsis As Introduced
Amends "An Act concerning appropriations", Public Act 97-730. Designates the Department of Human Services as the State agency to receive funds appropriated from the Health and Human Services Medicaid Trust Fund for awards and grants to developmental disabilities or mental health programs (rather than for awards and grants to developmental disabilities programs). Appropriates $12,000,000, or so much thereof as may be necessary, from the General Revenue Fund to the Department of Human Services' Division of Mental Health for the sole purpose of restoring funds to capacity grant funded programs that were reduced and preventing payment delays in fee-for-service programs. Effective immediately.
