Bill > SB400

This bill revises provisions relating to homelessness in Nevada. The key provisions are: 1. It requires each contract between the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) and a Medicaid managed care organization (MCO) to include a requirement for the MCO to reinvest a percentage of its annual profits in programs and initiatives to address homelessness and provide sustainable medication/prescription services, alcohol/drug intervention or rehabilitation services, and emergency/supportive housing in the local communities where the MCO operates. 2. It revises the duties of the reinvestment advisory committee in counties with populations over 700,000 (currently only Clark County) to focus on the reinvestment of funds by MCOs to address homelessness and provide the services mentioned above. 3. It requires DHHS to establish the Fiscal Advisory Committee for a Flexible Continuum of Care Plan, which will receive funding to provide various services for people experiencing homelessness. The bill also requires certain cities to provide funding to DHHS for the Advisory Committee. 4. The bill makes various appropriations from the State General Fund to DHHS for allocation to the Advisory Committee to carry out these provisions.
