DWD must make the rating information provided under the system available to parents, guardians, and legal custodians of children who are recipients, or prospective recipients, of care and supervision from a child care provider that is rated under the system, including making that information available on DWD's Internet site.
For further information see the state fiscal estimate, which will be printed as an appendix to this bill.

Children
Under current law, DHFS contracts for activities to augment the amount of moneys received under Title IV-E of the federal Social Security Act for foster care and adoption assistance, under Title XVIII of that act for Medicare, and under Title XIX of that act for Medical Assistance (MA) (income augmentation services receipts) and receives moneys under Title XIX of that act in reimbursement of the cost of providing targeted case management services to children whose care is not eligible for reimbursement under Title IV-E of that act (MA targeted case management moneys). Current law requires DHFS to use income augmentation services receipts to support costs that are exclusively related to the operational costs of income augmentation activities and to distribute not less than 50 percent of income augmentation services receipts received for MA to counties for social, mental health, developmental disabilities, and alcohol and other drug abuse services. In addition, current law permits DHFS to use MA targeted case management moneys to provide services to children and families in Milwaukee County and to use income augmentation services receipts for other purposes if the secretary of administration and JCF, under a 14-day passive review process, approve a plan submitted by DHFS for the proposed use of those moneys.
Also under current law, there is appropriated to DHFS all moneys received from the federal government that are intended to reimburse the state for expenditures in previous fiscal years and that exceed the amount of those moneys estimated to be received (excess federal revenues). Currently, DHFS is authorized to expend those excess federal revenues for liabilities anticipated to be paid with federal moneys, but that are not allowable uses of federal moneys (federal disallowances).
This bill permits DHFS in fiscal year 2007-08 and the Department of Children and Families (DCF) in fiscal year 2008-09 to expend not more than $500,000 in income augmentation services receipts, MA targeted case management moneys, and excess federal revenues received in fiscal year 2006-07 or 2007-08 for unexpected or unusually high-cost out-of-home care placements of Indian children ordered by tribal courts if DHFS or DCF determines in light of overall child welfare needs and after paying federal disallowances that there are sufficient income augmentation services receipts, MA targeted case management moneys, and excess federal revenues to expend for that purpose.
For further information see the state and local fiscal estimate, which will be printed as an appendix to this bill.
