OBJECTIVES AND PERFORMANCE INDICATORS
Unless otherwise indicated, all objectives are to be accomplished during or by the end of FY 1999-2000. Performance indictors are made up of two parts: name and value. The indicator name describes what is being measured. The indicator value is the numeric value or level achieved within a given measurement period. For budgeting purposes, performance indicator values are shown for the prior fiscal year, the current fiscal year, and alternative funding scenarios (continuation budget level and Executive Budget recommendation level) for the ensuing fiscal year (the fiscal year of the budget document).
RESOURCE ALLOCATION FOR THE PROGRAM
The Administration and Support Program is funded Interagency Transfers, Fees and Self-generated Revenue and Federal Funds. Interagency Transfers include: Title XIX reimbursement for services provided to Medicaid eligible patients, and reimbursements from various state and local agencies for space occupied and services received. Self-generated Revenue represents reimbursement for ineligible patients with insurance or personal payments based on a sliding fee scale, reimbursement for the cost of housing furnished to employees and utilities and supplies utilized by Central Regional Laundry. Federal Funds are Title XVIII reimbursement for services provided to Medicare eligible patients.
ANALYSIS OF RECOMMENDATION
The total means of financing for this program is recommended at 95.6% of the existing operating budget. It represents 89.4% of the total request ($8,200,143) for this program. The major changes include: a $102,515 decrease for risk management premiums; a decrease of $92,645 to fully fund salaries in other programs; and a personnel reduction of 1 position vacant in excess of one (1) year. The changes should have no impact on the delivery of these services.
