(b) Voluntary payments. 1. 'Designation on return.' A corporation filing an income or franchise tax return may designate on the return any amount of additional payment or any amount of a refund that is due the corporation as a donation to the veterans trust fund to be used for veterans programs under s. 25.36 (1).

2. 'Designation added to tax owed.' If the corporation owes any tax, the corporation shall remit in full the tax due and the amount designated on the return as a donation to the veterans trust fund when the corporation files a tax return.

3. 'Designation deducted from refund.' Except as provided under par. (d), and subject to ss. 71.75 (9) and 71.80 (3), if the corporation is owed a refund, the department shall deduct the amount designated on the return as a donation to the veterans trust fund from the amount of the refund.

(c) Errors; failure to remit correct amount. 1. 'Reduced designation.' If a corporation remits an amount that exceeds the tax due, after error corrections, but that is less than the total of the tax due, after error corrections, and the amount designated by the corporation on the return as a donation to the veterans trust fund, the department shall reduce the designation to reflect the amount remitted that exceeds the tax due, after error corrections.

2. 'Void designation.' The designation for a donation to the veterans trust fund is void if the corporation remits an amount equal to or less than the tax due, after error corrections.

(d) Errors; insufficient refund. If a corporation is owed a refund that is less than the amount designated on the return as a donation to the veterans trust fund, after attachment and crediting under ss. 71.75 (9) and 71.80 (3) and after error corrections, the department shall reduce the designation to reflect the actual amount of the refund the corporation is otherwise owed.

(e) Conditions. If a corporation places any conditions on a designation for a donation to the veterans trust fund, the designation is void.

(f) Void designation. If a designation for a donation to the veterans trust fund is void, the department shall disregard the designation and determine the amounts due, owed, refunded, and received.

(g) Tax return. The secretary of revenue shall provide a place for the designations under this subsection on the corporate income and franchise tax returns and the secretary shall highlight that place on the returns by a symbol chosen by the department of veterans affairs that relates to veterans.

(h) Certification of amounts. Annually, on or before September 15, the secretary of revenue shall certify to the department of veterans affairs and the department of administration:

2. The total amount received from all designations to the veterans trust fund under this subsection made by corporations during the previous fiscal year.

3. The net amount remaining after the administrative costs under subd. 1. are subtracted from the total received under subd. 2.

(h) 1. shall be deposited into the general fund and credited to the appropriation under s. 20.566 (1) (hp), and the net amount remaining certified under par. (h) 3. shall be deposited into the veterans trust fund and used for the veterans programs under s. 25.36 (1).

(j) Refunds. An amount designated as a donation to the veterans trust fund under this subsection is not subject to refund to a corporation that designates the donation unless the corporation submits information to the satisfaction of the department within 18 months from the date that taxes are due from the corporation or from the date that the corporation filed the return, whichever is later, that the amount designated is clearly in error. A refund granted by the department under this paragraph shall be deducted from the moneys received under this subsection in the fiscal year that the refund is certified under 71.75 (7).

Health and Human services
Medical Assistance
Currently, DHFS administers a Community Integration Program (commonly known as "CIP II"), under which Medical Assistance (MA) moneys are paid to counties to provide home and community-based services, under a waiver of federal Medicaid laws, to elderly and physically disabled persons who meet the level of care requirements for MA-reimbursed nursing home care or who are relocated from facilities. DHFS must establish a uniform daily rate for CIP II and reimburse counties up to that rate for each person enrolled in CIP II. DHFS may provide enhanced reimbursement for CIP II services for a person who is relocated to the community from a nursing home by a county if the nursing home bed used by the person is delicensed upon the person's relocation.
This bill authorizes DHFS to provide enhanced CIP II funding for home and community-based services to an MA-eligible person who relocates from a facility to the community, if the number of persons served does not exceed the number of nursing home beds delicensed as part of plans submitted by nursing homes and approved by DHFS.
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:
SECTION 1. 46.277 (1m) (ag) of the statutes is created to read:

46.277 (1m) (ag) "Delicensed" means deducted from the number of beds stated on a facility's license, as specified under s. 50.03 (4) (e).

SECTION 2. 46.277 (5) (g) of the statutes is amended to read:

46.277 (5) (g) The department may provide enhanced reimbursement for services provided under this section to an individual who is relocated to the community from a nursing home by a county department on or after July 26, 2003 the effective date of this paragraph .... [revisor inserts date], if the nursing home bed that was used by the individual is delicensed upon relocation of the individual number of individuals served under this paragraph does not exceed the number of nursing home beds that are delicensed as part of plans submitted by nursing homes and approved by the department. The department shall develop and utilize a formula to determine the enhanced reimbursement rate.
