The Department of
Health and Human Services will require General Fund appropriations of $41,777
in fiscal year 2023-24 and $43,942 in fiscal year 2024-25 for one
Comprehensive Health Planner II position to assist with the tracking of
temporary Nurse Staffing Agency registrations for administrative changes,
complaint investigations, audits related to the new requirements and drafting
the required annual report.
There will also be an annual increase in General Fund Revenue of $214,500
due to increasing the annual registration fee from $25 to $1,000. This
increase is greater than the General Fund appropriations required for the new
position, so this bill is a net savings to the General Fund. |
