The bill includes
a one-time General Fund appropriation to the Department of Health and Human
Services of $26,139 in fiscal year 2019-20 for technology changes required to
allow physician assistants to be reimbursed directly for services. A one-time
Federal Expenditures Fund allocation is also included for the FMAP
match. |
|
The impact of the
change in certain application and registration fees is a net reduction in
dedicated revenue of $35,000 annually to the Board of Licensure in Medicine
and $16,000 annually to the Board of Osteopathic Licensure, both affiliated
boards of the Department of Professional and Financial Regulation. |
