AI Summary

This bill addresses how provider rates are calculated for community residential services in Snohomish County. Specifically, the bill requires the state department to use King County's classification system when determining provider rates for community residential service businesses in Snohomish County. A "provider rate" in this context means the specific rate for each tier of service that is assigned based on county categories. The bill includes a contingency clause that will render the entire act null and void if specific funding referencing this bill is not included in the omnibus appropriations act by June 30, 2025. The legislation adds a new section to chapter 71A.12 of the Revised Code of Washington (RCW), which relates to services for individuals with developmental disabilities, and aims to standardize rate calculations across different counties by using King County's established classification method for Snohomish County.
