The Administration and Support Program is responsible for the management of and operational support for the provision of a comprehensive array of mental health services which are delivered through an integrated system of patient care services in a manner consistent with all federal/state certifications, licensing, governing body, legislative mandates, and other regulatory body standards, including the maintaining of HCFA (Health Care Financing Administration) and JCAHO (Joint Commission on Accreditation of Health Care Organizations) accreditation.
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).

Interagency Transfers include Title XIX reimbursement for services provided to Medicaid eligible patients, and reimbursements from the Office of Substance Abuse, Dixon Correctional Institute, Feliciana Forensic Facility, State Department of Veteran's Affairs, Villa Feliciana Geriatric Hospital and Vocational Rehabilitation 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 and telephone supplied to employees, utilities and supplies utilized by Jackson Regional Laundry and meals served to employees and visitors.
