Program Authorization: Act 69 of 1847 and Act 253 of 1972
The mission of the Administration and Support Program is to provide support services to the facility.
The goal of the Administration and Support Program is to provide efficient and effective administrative and support services to the programs and services provided at the facility.
The Administration and Support Program is responsible for the management of and percolation support for the provision of a comprehensive array of mental health services. These services are delivered through an integrated system of patient care services in a manner consistent with all federal/state certification, 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) accreditations.
OBJECTIVES AND PERFORMANCE INDICATORS
1. In FY 1998-99, the Administration and Support Program will provide leadership and support through efficient utilization of resources to ensure an efficient operation of the hospital in providing appropriate psychiatric treatment in a safe and therapeutic environment, all in accordance with governing, licensing, and accreditation bodies and standards.
1 Includes all means of financing.
RESOURCE ALLOCATION FOR THE PROGRAM
The Administration and Support Program is funded with interagency transfers and fees and self-generated revenue. 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.
The total means of financing for this program is recommended at 95.9% of the existing operating budget. It represents 84.9% of the total request ($9,766,747) for this program. The major changes reflected in this analysis include: reducing $46,129 of interagency transfers for risk management premiums; a decrease of $137,000 of Interim Emergency Board funds; a reduction of $27,294 of federal funds for non-recurring acquisitions and major repairs; personnel reductions; and the transfer of the Baton Rouge Alcohol and Drug Abuse Unit from the East Louisiana State Hospital campus to the Capital Area Human Services District. The changes should have no impact on the delivery of these services.
