1999 - 2000 LEGISLATURE
February 3, 2000 - Introduced by Senator Grobschmidt, cosponsored by
Representative Sinicki. Referred to Health, Utilities, Veterans and Military
Affairs.
SB363,1,3
1An Act to repeal 49.45 (47) (d); and
to amend 49.45 (47) (c) of the statutes;
2relating to: the biennial fee for certification of an adult day care center as a
3provider of medical assistance.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Under current law, as created in
1999 Wisconsin Act 9 (the biennial budget act),
in order to receive reimbursement for services provided to medical assistance
recipients, an adult day care center must be certified as a provider of medical
assistance by the department of health and family services (DHFS). The biennial fee
for the certification is $89, plus $17.80 per client, based on the number of clients that
the adult day care center is certified to serve. DHFS is authorized to increase this
fee by rule.
This bill reduces the biennial fee for medical assistance certification of an adult
day care center to $100, eliminates the per-client fee and eliminates the authority
for DHFS to increase the fee by rule.
For further information see the state and local fiscal estimate, which will be
printed as an appendix to this bill.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do
enact as follows:
