Book excerpt: Neutral testimony concerning SB 501. "The bill would create new requirements for the Medicaid program related to presumptive eligibility, penalty periods, and data sharing and verification. Our agency is neutral on the bill; however, we have some concerns about the cost and feasibility of certain provisions. ... New Section 1 of SB 501 would change current PE [presumptive eligibility] operations by limiting PE determinations to children and pregnant women only. If it became law, the agency would no longer be able to provide presumptive eligibility to (1) low-income parents and caretakers, (2) aged-out foster care children, (3) and low-income women who were screened and diagnosed with breast or cervical cancer through the Early Detection Works program. It is not clear why only those populations would be excluded from PE determinations. ... Section 2 of SB 501 would require the Medicaid program to apply to CMS for a waiver to allow the state to impose a six-month penalty period for any non-disabled, non-pregnant adult aged 19-64 who fails to report a change in circumstances that affects their eligibility for Medicaid. ... The only Medicaid populations that would be affected by this policy change, if approved by CMS, are low-income parents and caretakers. If SB 501 became law and CMS approved such a waiver, the agency would expect to see an increase in administrative workload. ... However, the agency questions whether the current CMS administration would approve such a waiver. ... SB 501 would prohibit the agency from relying on Medicaid eligibility determinations made by an Affordable Care Act exchange. This requirement would not change actual agency operations. SB 501 would also require KDHE to establish data exchanges with the Department of Administration, the Office of Vital Statistics, the Department of Labor, the Department for Children and Families, the Department of Revenue, and the Department of Corrections. KDHE-DHCF already performs some of the data verification processes that SB 501 would require. ... SB 501 would require the agency to publicly post certain data related to fraud investigations. ... It is unclear whether SB 501 is intended to require the agency to hire fraud investigators. If so, there would be a cost associated with hiring those personnel."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Testimony in opposition to SB 501. "The Department for Children and Families Economic and Employment Services administers several public assistance safety net programs including cash assistance or Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), childcare subsidy, and food assistance also known as food stamps or Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). SB 501 bill mandates changes to the eligibility rules for public assistance that would come at a substantial cost in state general funds. Previous experience with several of these proposed policies have generated additional costs to administer programs outlined below. It is for these reasons we cannot support the bill."

Book excerpt: Testimony in support of SB 312. "SB 312 amends K.S.A. 65-526 expanding the reasons the Department may assess a civil fine for violations of the Child Care Act. The Child Care Act, K.S.A.65-501 et Seq., makes it unlawful to conduct or maintain a child care facility without a temporary permit or license. ... Facilities operating without a license are not inspected or monitored by KDHE. As a result, parents have no assurance that foundational health and safety standards are met. SB 312 increases protections for children in out-of-home care by serving as deterrent to illegal care and potentially increasing the number of licensed and inspected child care facilities. ... The Department's very limited authority to intervene after a provider has demonstrated an unwillingness to comply is a point of concern for the regulated community providing safe and nurturing care to children of working families. Further, it may also be a disincentive to the public for the reporting illegal care. Amending K.S.A.65-526 would allow the Department to assess a civil fine when an individual, after written notification and an opportunity to comply with the law, continues to provide child care without a required license."

Download or read book Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2009-07-29 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scores of talented and dedicated people serve the forensic science community, performing vitally important work. However, they are often constrained by lack of adequate resources, sound policies, and national support. It is clear that change and advancements, both systematic and scientific, are needed in a number of forensic science disciplines to ensure the reliability of work, establish enforceable standards, and promote best practices with consistent application. Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States: A Path Forward provides a detailed plan for addressing these needs and suggests the creation of a new government entity, the National Institute of Forensic Science, to establish and enforce standards within the forensic science community. The benefits of improving and regulating the forensic science disciplines are clear: assisting law enforcement officials, enhancing homeland security, and reducing the risk of wrongful conviction and exoneration. Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States gives a full account of what is needed to advance the forensic science disciplines, including upgrading of systems and organizational structures, better training, widespread adoption of uniform and enforceable best practices, and mandatory certification and accreditation programs. While this book provides an essential call-to-action for congress and policy makers, it also serves as a vital tool for law enforcement agencies, criminal prosecutors and attorneys, and forensic science educators.
