Bill > HB05233

This bill requires state agencies, specifically including the Departments of Children and Families and Public Health, to execute purchase of service contracts with private provider organizations within 30 days. A purchase of service contract is a legal agreement where a state agency contracts with a private organization to provide specific services, typically in areas like social services, healthcare, or community support. By mandating a 30-day contract execution timeline, the bill aims to help these private organizations receive state funding more quickly and reduce financial uncertainty. The goal is to prevent delays in reimbursements and payments that can create cash flow challenges for organizations that depend on state funding to provide critical services. This proposed legislation would amend title 4 of the general statutes to establish this new contractual requirement for state agencies.
