Bill > HF3018

This bill establishes a new supplementary administrative rate for counties and Tribes involved in housing support programs. The bill requires the commissioner of human services to determine an additional rate to be paid to counties and Tribes to cover three specific administrative activities: (1) establishing and maintaining housing support agreements with providers, including contracting processes, (2) overseeing and monitoring the quality of provider services, and (3) determining eligibility and making payments to eligible providers. The commissioner must report to legislative committee chairs and ranking minority members about the rate and its methodology by February 27, 2026, and in subsequent years if the rate is modified. The bill also includes an appropriation from the general fund to support this new administrative rate, with funding allocated for fiscal years 2026 and 2027. The new administrative rate provision will take effect the day after final enactment, allowing counties and Tribes to receive additional funding to help manage housing support programs more effectively.
