Veterans Affairs
Rules Submittal Date:
On February 26, 2003, the Wisconsin Department of Veterans Affairs submitted a proposed rule to the Wisconsin Legislative Council Rules Clearinghouse amending s.
VA 2.01 (2) (b) 2. of the Wisconsin Administrative Code. The proposed rule relates to the expenditure limitation for dentures under the health care aid grant program.
Analysis
The amendment of s.
VA 2.01 (2) (b) 2. enables the department of veterans affairs to expend up to 50% of the annual appropriation of the health care aid grant program for dentures. Currently, the code provision limits expenditures for dentures to 25% of the annual appropriation. The department has been forced to close the denture portion of the program within the first month of recent fiscal years because of the significant demand for dentures and the expenditure limitation. Increasing the expenditure limitation will help to address this demand while maintaining funding for other covered services.
Agency Procedure for Promulgation:
A public hearing is required. The Office of the Secretary is primarily responsible for preparing the rule.
