County approves second CMH appropriation transfer; director cites Medicaid-based formula
Summary
The board approved the second of three appropriation transfers to the Community Mental Health corporation. The CMH director said the county increased its request to better match Medicaid-based formulas and auditors' recommendations, adding roughly $111,000 compared with prior years' requests.
The director for Community Mental Health asked the board to approve the second of three appropriation transfers for the corporation. The director said the county increased the annual request by about $111,000 to better reflect Medicaid dollars spent for hospitalization in the community and to align with auditor recommendations to follow the Medicaid mental-health code formula.
Commissioners supported the transfer and moved to approve the request. The director explained the quarter-by-quarter allocation and said the increase brings the county's quarterly requests closer to what auditors recommended; no dissenting votes were recorded.
