Bill summary

Senate committee substitute makes the following changes to 3rd edition. Deletes all the provisions of the 3rd edition and replaces it with AN ACT TO (1) MAINTAIN COUNTY LEVEL EXPENDITURES IN LOCAL FUNDS FOR CHILD PROTECTIVE SERVICES WORKERS; (2) USE 2011 DATA SOURCE FOR CHILD CARE SUBSIDY ALLOCATION FORMULA; (3) CLARIFY THE TERM SUBSTANTIAL COMPLIANCE AS IT RELATES TO MEDICAID AND HEALTH CHOICE PROVIDER REQUIREMENTS; AND (4) EXEMPT CONTRACTS FOR THE RENTAL OF OFFICE SPACE THAT DO NOT CONSTITUTE A FINANCIAL RELATIONSHIP UNDER THE FEDERAL STARK ACT FROM THE CONFLICT OF INTEREST PROVISION OF THE HOSPITAL AUTHORITY ACT.
As the title indicates. Adds uncodified Section 1 to require that counties spend no less in local funds for child protective workers in the 2012-13 fiscal year than was expended in the 2011-12 fiscal year. Amends Section 10.2(a) of SL 2011-145, directing the Division of Child Development and Early Education to use the same data source as used for the 2011-12 fiscal year to determine the child care subsidy allocation formula. Amends GS 131E-21 adding new subdivision (e1) exempting certain rental contracts for office space from conflict of interest provisions of the Hospital Authority Act.
Amends GS 108C-2, adding new subdivision (4a) to clarify the term substantial compliance, and provides that this section applies to all audits except those with overpayments that have become final before that date.
