The bill includes
General Fund appropriations to the Department of Health and Human Services 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 new requirements and drafting a
required annual report.
The annual registration fee for a temporary nurse agency is increased from
$25 to $1,000, which is expected to increase General Fund revenue by $214,500
annually. Since revenue is greater than the appropriations required for the
new position, this bill is a net savings to the General Fund. |
