What it would have done
Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
This bill requires the Department of Health Services to establish for the 2019-21 fiscal biennium a community-based services grant program to distribute awards to provider organizations offering facility-based prevocational and day services who apply to initiate or increase and sustain their provision of community-based services that create pathways to and increase competitive integrated employment for people with disabilities. Under the bill, DHS must award grants to providers who apply, develop a plan, and reach benchmarks they set that are approved by DHS, providing grants to up to 30 providers that submit a proposal to initiate or increase and sustain the organization's community-based employment or community-based day services. DHS must give preference in awarding grant funds to providers with the most aggressive and achievable benchmarks for increasing competitive integrated employment and meaningful community involvement for people with disabilities. The bill also requires DHS to distribute performance-based awards to providers that achieve specific employment or community-based day outcomes for individuals with intellectual or developmental disabilities.
Under the bill, DHS must also distribute awards for subject matter experts, including those with experience in Wisconsin's long-term care system, to assist grant recipients with initiating or increasing and sustaining their provision of community-based services consistent with the grant requirements and to assist with necessary changes in business management practices to ensure financial viability in the provision of community-based services. Finally, the bill allows DHS to transfer the funds specified for the grants between fiscal years such that they can expend the funds until they are gone, even beyond the 2019-21 fiscal biennium.
