Title
Health and Human Services Agency recommending the Board receive and file a presentation on the Agency’s five (5) year projection and provide direction to staff. (Est. Time: 30 min.)
FUNDING: Multiple - Federal, State, Other
Body
DISCUSSION / BACKGROUND
Health and Human Services Agency prepared a five year projection from Fiscal Year (FY) 2018-19 through FY 2022-23 to determine the potential impact of increasing costs to the programs as well as potential impacts to funding such as the general fund. The projection assumed that the Agency will continue with the current model of doing business adjusted for specific cost and revenue assumptions. Revenues were increased in areas that are dependent on cost increases, where appropriate. This projection does not assume increases in capped allocations provided in the State and Federal Budgets. Cost saving measures are also not part of the projection, as this is a current use model with modest increases to spending to show the potential use of general fund support and fund balance use. The pending classification and compensation study is not considered in this scenario, nor is the effect of a potential economic downturn that would reduce available Realignment, State and Federal revenues.
