DHS recommends full payment of this claim. Ms. Holschbach submitted an expense report to be reimbursed for the damage, which was denied due to DHS’s limited ability to reimburse employees for damaged personal articles. DHS points to the State of Wisconsin Compensation Plan, Section G 2.02, authorized by Wis. Stat. §§ 20.918 and 230.12(1)(dm), which states a reimbursement may not exceed $100 for any one incident. DHS has no other mechanism to reimburse Claimant or Ms. Holschbach. The Board concludes the claim should be paid in the amount of $1,694.70 based on equitable principles. The Board further concludes, under authority of Wis. Stat. § 16.007(6m), payment should be made from the Department of Health Services appropriation Wis. Stat. § 20.435(2)(gk). The Board concludes:
That payment of the amounts below to the identified claimant from the following statutory appropriations is justified under § 16.007(6)(b). Anthony C.
