FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact as a result of this request. RECOMMENDATION: CHAIRWOMAN JACOB: Direct the Chief Administrative Officer and the County’s Sacramento Representative to seek legislation that would permit inclusion of self-employed individuals within the definition of small employer for health coverage purposes.

AYES: Cox, Jacob, Slater, Horn ABSENT: Roberts 2. SUBJECT: AUTHORITY FOR THE PUBLIC GUARDIAN TO SERVE AS TRUSTEE AND INCREASE INDIGENT BURIAL RATES (Supv. Dist: All) OVERVIEW: The Health and Human Services Agency’s Aging & Independence Services administers programs that benefit seniors and the disabled. These programs include the Public Administrator/Public Guardian. The Public Guardian acts as conservator of estates for those disabled individuals in danger of losing assets. If approved, this request will authorize an amendment to the County Administrative Code to include in the list of duties performed by the Public Guardian the responsibility to act as a Trustee when the court finds that no other qualified person is willing to act as Trustee. The Public Administrator acts as the County’s Indigent Burial Officer to arrange at County cost for the disposition of the bodies of deceased persons who have no estate and no family who are able to afford providing the disposition. This request will authorize an increase to the rates paid to participating mortuaries that provide indigent burials. These rates have not been changed since 1980. FISCAL IMPACT: Funds for this request are included in the FY2000-2002 Operational Plan. If approved this request will result in Trustee expenditures being 100% offset by fees paid directly from the associated trust. The funding source for the increased indigent disposition rates ($80,000) is General Revenue. There is no net County cost increase or staff years required. BUSINESS IMPACT STATEMENT This request will result in a positive impact on business because it increases rates paid by the County to participating mortuaries for cremation and burial services.

These programs provide services for persons at-risk of institutional placement in order to keep them safely in their homes. The State Budget for FY 2000-2001 provides for both an expansion in the number of clients served by the Multipurpose Senior Services Program and a cost of living adjustment for the current caseloads. Board of Supervisors’ approval is requested to authorize the Health and Human Services Agency to respond to the Request for Proposals from the California Department of Aging for Multipurpose Senior Services Program for program expansion funds, and to establish appropriations for a State authorized cost of living adjustment for the program. Approval is requested to execute the revenue agreement for the AIDS Medi-Cal Waiver Program.

FISCAL IMPACT: Funds for the proposed Multipurpose Senior Services Program (MSSP) expansion are not included in the FY 2000-01 Operational Plan.

There will be no additional cost to the General Fund and no additional staff years.

The funding source is the California Department of Aging. There will be no change in net General Fund cost and no additional staff years. The Fiscal Year 2000/01 Operational Plan also includes funding for the proposed orientation and training of Individual Providers. If approved this request will result in a maximum cost of $15,000, offset by IHSS program revenue in the amount of $11,700, a County share of cost of $3,000 and no additional staff years. The annualized cost is $100,000 beginning in Fiscal Year 2001/02, offset by IHSS program revenue in the amount of $78,000, a County share cost of $22,000 and no additional staff years.

Dist: All) OVERVIEW: On May 19, 1998 (19), the Board of Supervisors approved Reaching for New Heights: A Strategic Plan for Children and Youth. On November 10, 1998 (7) the Board approved the San Diego Children’s Indigent Health Care Plan and authorized the Director of the Health and Human Services Agency (HHSA) to seek external funding to expand and enhance activities consistent with the Plan. These actions underscore the Board’s commitment to improving both access to health care and preventive health care services for children. The HHSA helps realize this commitment through their Child Health and Disability Prevention/Early and Periodic Screening, Diagnosis and Treatment (CHDP/ EPSDT); CHDP Foster Care; Maternal and Child Health-Perinatal Care Network; Children’s Dental Health Initiative, Share the Care; and San Diego Kids Health Assurance Network (SD-KHAN) programs. These programs are administered through the Office of Public Health’s Division of Children, Youth and Families.

The CHDP Foster Care program, ensures preventive health care for and tracks the health status of children in County placement. The Maternal and Child Health-Perinatal Care Network (MCH-PCN) program links low-income pregnant women with perinatal care to prevent poor birth outcomes and promotes healthy behaviors for women of child bearing age.

The San Diego Kids Health Assurance Network (SD-KHAN) facilitates the enrollment of low-income children into Healthy Families, Medi-Cal and other health insurance programs.

Board approval is also requested to approve two dental grants and increase appropriations for the Children’s Dental Health Initiative, Share the Care.
