The department may seek, receive, and spend, under RCW 43.79.260 through 43.79.282, federal moneys not anticipated in this act as long as the federal funding does not require expenditure of state moneys for the program in excess of amounts anticipated in this act.

Upon the lapsing of any moneys under this subsection, the office of financial management shall notify the legislative fiscal committees.

     The appropriations in this section are subject to the following conditions and limitations:
     (1) Based on quarterly expenditure reports and caseload forecasts, if the department estimates that expenditures for the medical assistance program will exceed the appropriations, the department shall take steps including but not limited to reduction of rates or elimination of optional services to reduce expenditures so that total program costs do not exceed the annual appropriation authority.
     (2) The department shall continue to extend medicaid eligibility to children through age 18 residing in households with incomes below 200 percent of the federal poverty level.
     (3) In determining financial eligibility for medicaid-funded services, the department is authorized to disregard recoveries by Holocaust survivors of insurance proceeds or other assets, as defined in RCW 48.104.030.

     (6) In accordance with RCW 74.46.625, $6,000,000 of the general fund -- federal appropriation is provided solely for supplemental payments to nursing homes operated by public hospital districts. The public hospital district shall be responsible for providing the required nonfederal match for the supplemental payment, and the payments shall not exceed the maximum allowable under federal rules. It is the legislature's intent that the payments shall be supplemental to and shall not in any way offset or reduce the payments calculated and provided in accordance with part E of chapter 74.46 RCW. It is the legislature's further intent that costs otherwise allowable for rate-setting and settlement against payments under chapter 74.46 RCW shall not be disallowed solely because such costs have been paid by revenues retained by the nursing home from these supplemental payments.
     (7) $1,660,000 of the health services account appropriation, $4,361,000 of the general fund -- federal appropriation, $1,350,000 of the general fund--state appropriation for fiscal year 2006, and $1,351,000 of the general fund--state appropriation for fiscal year 2007 are provided solely for grants to rural hospitals.

     (8) $22,081,000 of the health services account appropriation and $20,714,000 of the general fund -- federal appropriation are provided solely for grants to nonrural hospitals. The department shall distribute the funds under a formula that provides a relatively larger share of the available funding to hospitals that (a) serve a disproportionate share of low-income and medically indigent patients and (b) have relatively smaller net financial margins, to the extent allowed by the federal medicaid program.
     (9) In response to the federal directive to eliminate intergovernmental transfer transactions effective June 30, 2005, the department is directed to implement the inpatient hospital certified public expenditures program for the 2005-07 biennium. The program shall apply to all public hospitals, including those owned or operated by the state, except those classified as critical access hospitals or state psychiatric institutions. Hospitals in the program shall be paid and shall retain (a) one hundred percent of the federal portion of each medicaid inpatient fee-for-service claim payable by the medical assistance administration; and (b) one hundred percent of the federal portion of the maximum disproportionate share hospital payment allowable under federal regulations. Medicaid fee-for-service claim amounts shall be established by applying the department's ratio of costs to charges payment methodology. The department shall provide participating hospitals with the information and instructions needed by the hospital to certify the public expenditures required to qualify for the federal portions of both the medicaid inpatient fee-for-service payments and the disproportionate share hospital payments. In the event that any part of the program including, but not limited to, allowable certified public expenditures, is disallowed by the federal government, the department shall not seek recoupment of payments from the hospitals, provided the hospitals have complied with the directions of the department for participation in the program. The legislature intends that hospitals in the program receive no less in combined state and federal payments than they would have received under the methodology that was in place during fiscal year 2005. The department shall therefore make additional grant payments, not to exceed the amounts provided in this subsection, to hospitals whose total payments under the program would otherwise be less than the total state and federal payments they would have received under the methodology in effect during fiscal year 2005. $37,034,000 of the general fund--state appropriation for fiscal year 2006, $37,552,000 of the general fund--state appropriation for fiscal year 2007, $8,300,000 of the emergency medical services and trauma care systems trust account--state appropriation, and $45,450,000 of the general fund--federal appropriation are provided solely for new state grant and upper payment limit programs for the participating hospitals.
     (10) $4,372,000 of the general fund -- state appropriation for fiscal year 2006, $4,014,000 of the general fund -- state appropriation for fiscal year 2007, and $65,112,000 of the general fund -- federal appropriation are provided solely for development and implementation of a replacement system for the existing medicaid management information system.
     (11) $150,000 of the general fund--state appropriation for fiscal year 2006, $75,000 of the general fund--state appropriation for fiscal year 2007, and $225,000 of the general fund--federal appropriation are provided solely for the department to contract for an independent analysis of the medical assistance administration's current system for establishing hospital inpatient payment rates, and for recommendations on a new or updated system. The department shall submit an interim report of study findings by December 1, 2005, and a final report by November 15, 2006. The interim report shall include a comparison of the strengths and weaknesses of the current rate-setting system relative to those used by other state, federal, and private payers. The final report shall include recommendations on the design and implementation of a new or updated system that will promote equity among hospitals, access to quality care and improved health outcomes for patients, and cost-control and efficiency for taxpayers.

     (i) Special education students are basic education students first;
     (ii) As a class, special education students are entitled to the full basic education allocation; and
     (iii) Special education students are basic education students for the entire school day.
     (b) The S-275 and accounting changes in effect since the 2001-02 school year shall supercede any prior excess cost methodologies and shall be required of all school districts.
     (3) Each fiscal year appropriation includes such funds as are necessary to complete the school year ending in the fiscal year and for prior fiscal year adjustments.
     (4) The superintendent of public instruction shall distribute state and federal funds to school districts based on two categories: The optional birth through age two program for special education eligible developmentally delayed infants and toddlers, and the mandatory special education program for special education eligible students ages three to twenty-one.

     (5)(a) For the 2005-06 and 2006-07 school years, the superintendent shall make allocations to each district based on the sum of:
     (i) A district's annual average headcount enrollment of developmentally delayed infants and toddlers ages birth through two, multiplied by the district's average basic education allocation per full-time equivalent student, multiplied by 1.15; and

     (a) "Annual average full-time equivalent basic education enrollment" means the resident enrollment including students enrolled through choice (RCW 28A.225.225) and students from nonhigh districts (RCW 28A.225.210) and excluding students residing in another district enrolled as part of an interdistrict cooperative program (RCW 28A.225.250).
     (b) "Enrollment percent" means the district's resident special education annual average enrollment, excluding the birth through age two enrollment, as a percent of the district's annual average full-time equivalent basic education enrollment.
     Each district's general fund -- state funded special education enrollment shall be the lesser of the district's actual enrollment percent or 12.7 percent.
     (7) At the request of any interdistrict cooperative of at least 15 districts in which all excess cost services for special education students of the districts are provided by the cooperative, the maximum enrollment percent shall be calculated in accordance with subsection (6)(b) of this section, and shall be calculated in the aggregate rather than individual district units. For purposes of this subsection, the average basic education allocation per full-time equivalent student shall be calculated in the aggregate rather than individual district units.
     (8) To the extent necessary, $18,940,000 of the general fund--state appropriation and $28,698,000 of the general fund -- federal appropriation are provided for safety net awards for districts with demonstrated needs for special education funding beyond the amounts provided in subsection (5) of this section. If safety net awards exceed the amount appropriated in this subsection (8), the superintendent shall expend all available federal discretionary funds necessary to meet this need. Safety net funds shall be awarded by the state safety net oversight committee subject to the following conditions and limitations:
     (a) The committee shall consider unmet needs for districts that can convincingly demonstrate that all legitimate expenditures for special education exceed all available revenues from state funding formulas. In the determination of need, the committee shall also consider additional available revenues from federal sources. Differences in program costs attributable to district philosophy, service delivery choice, or accounting practices are not a legitimate basis for safety net awards.
     (b) The committee shall then consider the extraordinary high cost needs of one or more individual special education students. Differences in costs attributable to district philosophy, service delivery choice, or accounting practices are not a legitimate basis for safety net awards.
     (c) The maximum allowable indirect cost for calculating safety net eligibility may not exceed the federal restricted indirect cost rate for the district plus one percent.
     (d) Safety net awards shall be adjusted based on the percent of potential medicaid eligible students billed as calculated by the superintendent in accordance with chapter 318, Laws of 1999.
     (e) Safety net awards must be adjusted for any audit findings or exceptions related to special education funding.
     (9) The superintendent of public instruction may adopt such rules and procedures as are necessary to administer the special education funding and safety net award process. Prior to revising any standards, procedures, or rules, the superintendent shall consult with the office of financial management and the fiscal committees of the legislature.
     (10) The safety net oversight committee appointed by the superintendent of public instruction shall consist of:
     (a) One staff from the office of superintendent of public instruction;

By December 15th of each year of the 2005-07 fiscal biennium, the university shall report to the office of financial management and the legislative fiscal committees the number of new student FTEs by campus enrolled with the funding provided in this subsection.
     (2) The appropriations for higher education employee compensation increases provided or referenced in this section and described in sections 949 through 980 of this act are estimated to increase the total per student funding during the 2005-2007 biennium. This increase in total per student funding is in addition to the tuition revenues that will be generated and retained by the university as a result of the tuition increases that are authorized in section 601 of this act. Given these increases in core funding, Western Washington University shall, by June 30, 2007, show demonstrable progress toward achieving the following six-year programmatic goals:
     (a) Improve time to degree as measured by the percent of admitted students who graduate within 125% of the credits required for a degree;

     (3) Access to baccalaureate and graduate degree programs continues to be limited for residents of North Snohomish, Island, and Skagit counties. The higher education consortium created to serve the region has not been able to successfully address the region's access needs. The university center model of service delivery, centered on a community college campus with a single point of accountability, has proven more effective in developing degree programs and attracting students.
     Therefore, the management and leadership responsibility for consortium operations are assigned to Everett community college. Everett community college shall collaborate with community and business leaders, other local community colleges, the public four-year institutions of higher education, and the higher education coordinating board to develop an educational plan for the North Snohomish, Island, and Skagit county region based on the university center model.

     (2) Agencies shall use their information technology portfolios in making decisions on matters related to the following:
     (a) System refurbishment, acquisitions, and development efforts;
     (b) Setting goals and objectives for using information technology in meeting legislatively-mandated missions and business needs;
     (c) Assessment of overall information processing performance, resources, and capabilities;
     (d) Ensuring appropriate transfer of technological expertise for the operation of any new systems developed using external resources; and
     (e) Progress toward enabling electronic access to public information.
     (3) Each project will be planned and designed to take optimal advantage of Internet technologies and protocols. Agencies shall ensure that the project is in compliance with the architecture, infrastructure, principles, policies, and standards of digital government as maintained by the information services board.
     (4) The agency shall produce a feasibility study for information technology projects at the direction of the information services board and in accordance with published department of information services policies and guidelines. At a minimum, such studies shall include a statement of: (a) The purpose or impetus for change; (b) the business value to the agency, including an examination and evaluation of benefits, advantages, and cost; (c) a comprehensive risk assessment based on the proposed project's impact on both citizens and state operations, its visibility, and the consequences of doing nothing; (d) the impact on agency and statewide information infrastructure; and (e) the impact of the proposed enhancements to an agency's information technology capabilities on meeting service delivery demands.
     (5) The agency shall produce a comprehensive management plan for each project. The plan or plans shall address all factors critical to successful completion of each project.

     (1) The superintendent of public instruction, in consultation with the regional transportation coordinators of the educational service districts, shall establish a minimum number of school bus categories considering the capacity and type of vehicles required by school districts in Washington. The superintendent, in consultation with the regional transportation coordinators of the educational service districts, shall establish competitive specifications for each category of school bus. The categories shall be developed to produce minimum long-range operating costs, including costs of equipment and all costs in operating the vehicles. The categories, for purposes of comparative studies, will be at a minimum the same as those in the beginning of the 1994-95 school year. The competitive specifications shall meet federal motor vehicle safety standards, minimum state specifications as established by rule by the superintendent, and supported options as determined by the superintendent in consultation with the regional transportation coordinators of the educational service districts. In fiscal ((year 2005)) years 2006 and 2007, the superintendent may solicit and accept price quotes for a rear-engine category school bus that shall be reimbursed at the price of the corresponding front engine category.
     (2) After establishing school bus categories and competitive specifications, the superintendent of public instruction shall solicit competitive price quotes from school bus dealers to be in effect for one year and shall (a) except in fiscal ((year 2005)) years 2006 and 2007, establish a list of the lowest competitive price quotes obtained under this subsection, and (b) in fiscal ((year 2005)) years 2006 and 2007, establish a list of all accepted price quotes in each category obtained under this subsection.

     (1) Recipients of the Washington scholars award or the Washington scholars-alternate award under RCW 28A.600.100 through 28A.600.150 who choose to attend an independent college or university in this state, as defined in subsection (4) of this section, and recipients of the award named after June 30, 1994, who choose to attend a public college or university in the state may receive grants under this section if moneys are available. The higher education coordinating board shall distribute grants to eligible students under this section from moneys appropriated for this purpose. The individual grants shall not exceed, on a yearly basis, the yearly, full-time, resident, undergraduate tuition and service and activities fees in effect at the state-funded research universities. Grants to recipients attending an independent institution shall be contingent upon the institution matching on at least a dollar-for-dollar basis, either with actual money or by a waiver of fees, the amount of the grant received by the student from the state. The higher education coordinating board shall establish procedures, by rule, to disburse the awards as direct grants to the students.
     (2) The higher education coordinating board shall establish rules that provide for the annual awarding of grants, if moneys are available, to three Washington scholars per legislative district except for fiscal year 2007 when no more than two scholars per district shall be selected; and, if not used by an original recipient, to the Washington scholars-alternate from the same legislative district.
     Beginning with scholars selected in the year 2000, if the recipients of grants fail to demonstrate in a timely manner that they will enroll in a Washington institution of higher education in the fall term of the academic year following the award of the grant or are deemed by the higher education coordinating board to have withdrawn from college during the first academic year following the award, then the grant shall be considered relinquished. The higher education coordinating board may then award any remaining grant amounts to the Washington scholars-alternate from the same legislative district if the grants are awarded within one calendar year of the recipient being named a Washington scholars-alternate. Washington scholars-alternates named as recipients of the grant must also demonstrate in a timely manner that they will enroll in a Washington institution of higher education during the next available term, as determined by the higher education coordinating board. The board may accept appeals and grant waivers to the enrollment requirements of this section based on exceptional mitigating circumstances of individual grant recipients.
     To maintain eligibility for the grants, recipients must maintain a minimum grade point average at the college or university equivalent to 3.30. Students shall be eligible to receive a maximum of twelve quarters or eight semesters of grants for undergraduate study and may transfer among in-state public and independent colleges and universities during that period and continue to receive the grant as provided under RCW 28B.76.665. If the student's cumulative grade point average falls below 3.30 during the first three quarters or two semesters, that student may petition the higher education coordinating board which shall have the authority to establish a probationary period until such time as the student's grade point average meets required standards.
     (3) No grant shall be awarded to any student who is pursuing a degree in theology.
     (4) As used in this section, "independent college or university" means a private, nonprofit educational institution, the main campus of which is permanently situated in the state, open to residents of the state, providing programs of education beyond the high school level leading at least to the baccalaureate degree, and accredited by the northwest association of schools and colleges as of June 9, 1988, and other institutions as may be developed that are approved by the higher education coordinating board as meeting equivalent standards as those institutions accredited under this section.
     (5) As used in this section, "public college or university" means an institution of higher education as defined in RCW 28B.10.016.

     (1) The board may select participants based on an application process conducted by the board or the board may utilize selection processes for similar students in cooperation with the professional educator standards board or the office of the superintendent of public instruction.
     (2) If the board selects participants for the program, it shall establish a selection committee for screening and selecting recipients of the conditional scholarships. The criteria shall emphasize factors demonstrating excellence including but not limited to superior scholastic achievement, leadership ability, community contributions, bilingual ability, willingness to commit to providing teaching service in shortage areas, and an ability to act as a role model for students. Priority will be given to individuals seeking certification or an additional endorsement in math, science, technology, or special education.
     ((Subject to enactment of chapter 58, Laws of 2004,)) For fiscal years ((2005)) 2006 and 2007, additional priority shall be given to such individuals who are also bilingual. It is the intent of the legislature to develop a pool of dual-language teachers in order to meet the challenge of educating students who are dominant in languages other than English.

Sec. 919   RCW 41.05.050 and 2003 c 158 s 1 are each amended to read as follows:
     (1) Every department, division, or separate agency of state government, and such county, municipal, school district, educational service district, or other political subdivisions as are covered by this chapter, shall provide contributions to insurance and health care plans for its employees and their dependents, the content of such plans to be determined by the authority. Contributions, paid by the county, the municipality, or other political subdivision for their employees, shall include an amount determined by the authority to pay such administrative expenses of the authority as are necessary to administer the plans for employees of those groups, except as provided in subsection (4) of this section.
     (2) If the authority at any time determines that the participation of a county, municipal, or other political subdivision covered under this chapter adversely impacts insurance rates for state employees, the authority shall implement limitations on the participation of additional county, municipal, or other political subdivisions.
     (3) The contributions of any department, division, or separate agency of the state government, and such county, municipal, or other political subdivisions as are covered by this chapter, shall be set by the authority, subject to the approval of the governor for availability of funds as specifically appropriated by the legislature for that purpose. Insurance and health care contributions for ferry employees shall be governed by RCW 47.64.270.
     (4)(a) Beginning September 1, 2003, the authority shall collect from each participating school district and educational service district an amount equal to the composite rate charged to state agencies, plus an amount equal to the employee premiums by plan and family size as would be charged to state employees, for groups of district employees enrolled in authority plans as of January 1, 2003. However, during the 2005-07 fiscal biennium, the authority shall collect from each participating school district and educational service district an amount equal to the insurance benefit allocations provided in section 504 of this act, plus any additional funding provided by the legislature for school employee health benefits, plus an amount equal to the employee premiums by plan and family size as would be charged to state employees, for groups of district employees enrolled in authority plans as of July 1, 2005.
     (b) For all groups of district employees enrolling in authority plans for the first time after September 1, 2003, the authority shall collect from each participating school district an amount equal to the composite rate charged to state agencies, plus an amount equal to the employee premiums by plan and by family size as would be charged to state employees, only if the authority determines that this method of billing the districts will not result in a material difference between revenues from districts and expenditures made by the authority on behalf of districts and their employees.
     (c) If the authority determines at any time that the conditions in (b) of this subsection cannot be met, the authority shall offer enrollment to additional groups of district employees on a tiered rate structure until such time as the authority determines there would be no material difference between revenues and expenditures under a composite rate structure for all district employees enrolled in authority plans.
     (d) The authority may charge districts a one-time set-up fee for employee groups enrolling in authority plans for the first time.
     (e) For the purposes of this subsection:
     (i) "District" means school district and educational service district; and
     (ii) "Tiered rates" means the amounts the authority must pay to insuring entities by plan and by family size.
     (f) Notwithstanding this subsection and RCW 41.05.065(3), the authority may allow districts enrolled on a tiered rate structure prior to September 1, 2002, to continue participation based on the same rate structure and under the same conditions and eligibility criteria.
     (5) The authority shall transmit a recommendation for the amount of the employer contribution to the governor and the director of financial management for inclusion in the proposed budgets submitted to the legislature.

Sec. 920   RCW 41.05.065 and 2003 c 158 s 2 are each amended to read as follows:
     (1) The board shall study all matters connected with the provision of health care coverage, life insurance, liability insurance, accidental death and dismemberment insurance, and disability income insurance or any of, or a combination of, the enumerated types of insurance for employees and their dependents on the best basis possible with relation both to the welfare of the employees and to the state. However, liability insurance shall not be made available to dependents.
     (2) The board shall develop employee benefit plans that include comprehensive health care benefits for all employees. In developing these plans, the board shall consider the following elements:

     (b) Development of provider arrangements that encourage cost containment and ensure access to quality care, including but not limited to prepaid delivery systems and prospective payment methods;
     (c) Wellness incentives that focus on proven strategies, such as smoking cessation, injury and accident prevention, reduction of alcohol misuse, appropriate weight reduction, exercise, automobile and motorcycle safety, blood cholesterol reduction, and nutrition education;

     (e) Effective coordination of benefits;
     (f) Minimum standards for insuring entities; and
     (g) Minimum scope and content of public employee benefit plans to be offered to enrollees participating in the employee health benefit plans. To maintain the comprehensive nature of employee health care benefits, employee eligibility criteria related to the number of hours worked and the benefits provided to employees shall be substantially equivalent to the state employees' health benefits plan and eligibility criteria in effect on January 1, 1993. Nothing in this subsection (2)(g) shall prohibit changes or increases in employee point-of-service payments or employee premium payments for benefits.
     (3) The board shall design benefits and determine the terms and conditions of employee participation and coverage, including establishment of eligibility criteria. The same terms and conditions of participation and coverage, including eligibility criteria, shall apply to state employees and to school district employees and educational service district employees.
     (4) The board may authorize premium contributions for an employee and the employee's dependents in a manner that encourages the use of cost-efficient managed health care systems. During the 2005-2007 fiscal biennium, the board may only authorize premium contributions for an employee and the employee's dependents that are the same, regardless of an employee's status as represented or nonrepresented by a collective bargaining unit under the personnel system reform act of 2002. The board shall require participating school district and educational service district employees to pay at least the same employee premiums by plan and family size as state employees pay.
     (5) Employees shall choose participation in one of the health care benefit plans developed by the board and may be permitted to waive coverage under terms and conditions established by the board.
     (6) The board shall review plans proposed by insuring entities that desire to offer property insurance and/or accident and casualty insurance to state employees through payroll deduction. The board may approve any such plan for payroll deduction by insuring entities holding a valid certificate of authority in the state of Washington and which the board determines to be in the best interests of employees and the state. The board shall promulgate rules setting forth criteria by which it shall evaluate the plans.
     (7) Before January 1, 1998, the public employees' benefits board shall make available one or more fully insured long-term care insurance plans that comply with the requirements of chapter 48.84 RCW. Such programs shall be made available to eligible employees, retired employees, and retired school employees as well as eligible dependents which, for the purpose of this section, includes the parents of the employee or retiree and the parents of the spouse of the employee or retiree. Employees of local governments and employees of political subdivisions not otherwise enrolled in the public employees' benefits board sponsored medical programs may enroll under terms and conditions established by the administrator, if it does not jeopardize the financial viability of the public employees' benefits board's long-term care offering.
     (a) Participation of eligible employees or retired employees and retired school employees in any long-term care insurance plan made available by the public employees' benefits board is voluntary and shall not be subject to binding arbitration under chapter 41.56 RCW. Participation is subject to reasonable underwriting guidelines and eligibility rules established by the public employees' benefits board and the health care authority.
     (b) The employee, retired employee, and retired school employee are solely responsible for the payment of the premium rates developed by the health care authority. The health care authority is authorized to charge a reasonable administrative fee in addition to the premium charged by the long-term care insurer, which shall include the health care authority's cost of administration, marketing, and consumer education materials prepared by the health care authority and the office of the insurance commissioner.
     (c) To the extent administratively possible, the state shall establish an automatic payroll or pension deduction system for the payment of the long-term care insurance premiums.
     (d) The public employees' benefits board and the health care authority shall establish a technical advisory committee to provide advice in the development of the benefit design and establishment of underwriting guidelines and eligibility rules.

     (2) The commissioner may waive an overpayment if the commissioner finds that the overpayment was not the result of fraud, misrepresentation, willful nondisclosure, or fault attributable to the individual and that the recovery thereof would be against equity and good conscience: PROVIDED, HOWEVER, That the overpayment so waived shall be charged against the individual's applicable entitlement for the eligibility period containing the weeks to which the overpayment was attributed as though such benefits had been properly paid.
     (3) Any assessment herein provided shall constitute a determination of liability from which an appeal may be had in the same manner and to the same extent as provided for appeals relating to determinations in respect to claims for benefits: PROVIDED, That an appeal from any determination covering overpayment only shall be deemed to be an appeal from the determination which was the basis for establishing the overpayment unless the merits involved in the issue set forth in such determination have already been heard and passed upon by the appeal tribunal. If no such appeal is taken to the appeal tribunal by the individual within thirty days of the delivery of the notice of determination of liability, or within thirty days of the mailing of the notice of determination, whichever is the earlier, the determination of liability shall be deemed conclusive and final. Whenever any such notice of determination of liability becomes conclusive and final, the commissioner, upon giving at least twenty days notice by certified mail return receipt requested to the individual's last known address of the intended action, may file with the superior court clerk of any county within the state a warrant in the amount of the notice of determination of liability plus a filing fee under RCW 36.18.012(10). The clerk of the county where the warrant is filed shall immediately designate a superior court cause number for the warrant, and the clerk shall cause to be entered in the judgment docket under the superior court cause number assigned to the warrant, the name of the person(s) mentioned in the warrant, the amount of the notice of determination of liability, and the date when the warrant was filed. The amount of the warrant as docketed shall become a lien upon the title to, and any interest in, all real and personal property of the person(s) against whom the warrant is issued, the same as a judgment in a civil case duly docketed in the office of such clerk. A warrant so docketed shall be sufficient to support the issuance of writs of execution and writs of garnishment in favor of the state in the manner provided by law for a civil judgment. A copy of the warrant shall be mailed to the person(s) mentioned in the warrant by certified mail to the person's last known address within five days of its filing with the clerk.
     (4) On request of any agency which administers an employment security law of another state, the United States, or a foreign government and which has found in accordance with the provisions of such law that a claimant is liable to repay benefits received under such law, the commissioner may collect the amount of such benefits from the claimant to be refunded to the agency. In any case in which under this section a claimant is liable to repay any amount to the agency of another state, the United States, or a foreign government, such amounts may be collected without interest by civil action in the name of the commissioner acting as agent for such agency if the other state, the United States, or the foreign government extends such collection rights to the employment security department of the state of Washington, and provided that the court costs be paid by the governmental agency benefiting from such collection.
     (5) Any employer who is a party to a back pay award or settlement due to loss of wages shall, within thirty days of the award or settlement, report to the department the amount of the award or settlement, the name and social security number of the recipient of the award or settlement, and the period for which it is awarded. When an individual has been awarded or receives back pay, for benefit purposes the amount of the back pay shall constitute wages paid in the period for which it was awarded. For contribution purposes, the back pay award or settlement shall constitute wages paid in the period in which it was actually paid. The following requirements shall also apply:
     (a) The employer shall reduce the amount of the back pay award or settlement by an amount determined by the department based upon the amount of unemployment benefits received by the recipient of the award or settlement during the period for which the back pay award or settlement was awarded;
     (b) The employer shall pay to the unemployment compensation fund, in a manner specified by the commissioner, an amount equal to the amount of such reduction;
     (c) The employer shall also pay to the department any taxes due for unemployment insurance purposes on the entire amount of the back pay award or settlement notwithstanding any reduction made pursuant to (a) of this subsection;
     (d) If the employer fails to reduce the amount of the back pay award or settlement as required in (a) of this subsection, the department shall issue an overpayment assessment against the recipient of the award or settlement in the amount that the back pay award or settlement should have been reduced; and
     (e) If the employer fails to pay to the department an amount equal to the reduction as required in (b) of this subsection, the department shall issue an assessment of liability against the employer which shall be collected pursuant to the procedures for collection of assessments provided herein and in RCW 50.24.110.
     (6) When an individual fails to repay an overpayment assessment that is due and fails to arrange for satisfactory repayment terms, the commissioner shall impose an interest penalty of one percent per month of the outstanding balance. Interest shall accrue immediately on overpayments assessed pursuant to RCW 50.20.070 and shall be imposed when the assessment becomes final. For any other overpayment, interest shall accrue when the individual has missed two or more of the individual's monthly payments either partially or in full. The interest penalty shall be used, first, to fully fund either social security number cross-match audits or other more effective activities that ensure that individuals are entitled to all amounts of benefits that they are paid ((and)), second, to fund other detection and recovery of overpayment and collection activities, and third, during the 2005-07 fiscal biennium, the cost of the job skills program at community and technical colleges as appropriated by the legislature.

Sec. 1101   2004 c 276 s 201 (uncodified) is amended to read as follows:
     FOR THE DEPARTMENT OF SOCIAL AND HEALTH SERVICES. (1) Appropriations made in this act to the department of social and health services shall initially be allotted as required by this act. Subsequent allotment modifications shall not include transfers of moneys between sections of this act except as expressly provided in this act, nor shall allotment modifications permit moneys that are provided solely for a specified purpose to be used for other than that purpose.
     (2) The department of social and health services shall not initiate any services that require expenditure of state general fund moneys unless expressly authorized in this act or other law. The department may seek, receive, and spend, under RCW 43.79.260 through 43.79.282, federal moneys not anticipated in this act as long as the federal funding does not require expenditure of state moneys for the program in excess of amounts anticipated in this act. If the department receives unanticipated unrestricted federal moneys, those moneys shall be spent for services authorized in this act or in any other legislation providing appropriation authority, and an equal amount of appropriated state general fund moneys shall lapse. Upon the lapsing of any moneys under this subsection, the office of financial management shall notify the legislative fiscal committees. As used in this subsection, "unrestricted federal moneys" includes block grants and other funds that federal law does not require to be spent on specifically defined projects or matched on a formula basis by state funds.
     (3)(a) The appropriations to the department of social and health services in this act shall be expended for the programs and in the amounts specified in this act. However, after May 1, 2004, unless specifically prohibited by this act, the department may transfer general fund -- state appropriations for fiscal year 2004 among programs after approval by the director of financial management; and after May 1, 2005, unless specifically prohibited by this act, the department may transfer general fund--state appropriations for fiscal year 2005 in this act and in chapter 278, Laws of 2004 among programs after approval by the director of financial management. However, the department shall not transfer state moneys that are provided solely for a specified purpose except as expressly provided in subsection (3)(b) of this section.
     (b) To the extent that transfers under subsection (3)(a) of this section are insufficient to fund actual expenditures in excess of fiscal year 2004 and fiscal year 2005 caseload forecasts and utilization assumptions in the medical assistance, long-term care, foster care, adoption support, and child support programs, the department may transfer state moneys that are provided solely for a specified purpose after approval by the director of financial management.
     (c) The director of financial management shall notify the appropriate fiscal committees of the senate and house of representatives in writing prior to approving any allotment modifications or transfers under this subsection.
     (4) After consultation and coordination with local elected officials and community groups to assure there will be no degradation in existing services as a result of implementing the Washington medicaid integration project, the department shall report its progress to the appropriate committees of the legislature during the 2004 September committee assembly days and is authorized to develop an integrated health care program designed to slow the progression of illness and disability and better manage Medicaid expenditures for the aged and disabled population. Under this Washington medicaid integration partnership (WMIP) the department may combine and transfer such Medicaid funds appropriated under sections 204, 206, 208, and 209 of this act as may be necessary to finance a unified health care plan for the WMIP program enrollment. The WMIP pilot projects shall not exceed a daily enrollment of 6,000 persons during the 2003-05 biennium. The amount of funding assigned to the pilot projects from each program may not exceed the average per capita cost assumed in this act for individuals covered by that program, actuarially adjusted for the health condition of persons enrolled in the pilot, times the number of clients enrolled in the pilot. In implementing the WMIP pilot projects, the department may: (a) Withhold from calculations of "available resources" as set forth in RCW 71.24.025 a sum equal to the capitated rate for individuals enrolled in the pilots; and (b) employ capitation financing and risk-sharing arrangements in collaboration with health care service contractors licensed by the office of the insurance commissioner and qualified to participate in both the medicaid and medicare programs. The department shall conduct an evaluation of the WMIP, measuring changes in participant health outcomes, changes in patterns of service utilization, participant satisfaction, participant access to services, and the state fiscal impact.

It is the legislature's intent that the payments provided in this subsection shall be supplemental to and shall not in any way offset or reduce the payments calculated and provided in accordance with part E of chapter 74.46 RCW. It is the legislature's further intent that costs to improve access to healthcare at nursing facilities otherwise allowable for rate-setting and settlement against payments under chapter 74.46 RCW shall not be disallowed solely because such costs have been paid by revenues retained by the nursing home from these supplemental payments. A ((hospital)) nursing home which does not participate in the supplemental payment intergovernmental transfer budgeted for fiscal year 2003 shall not be eligible to participate in the supplemental payments budgeted in this subsection for fiscal year 2004. The participating districts shall retain no more than a total of $9,600,000 for the 2003-05 biennium.

The state's teaching hospitals shall retain at least 28 percent of the amounts retained by hospitals under these programs, or the maximum allowable under the teaching hospitals' limits as established under federal rule, whichever is less.
     (10) $3,178,000 of the health services account appropriation, $4,208,000 of the general fund--local appropriation, and $7,308,000 of the general fund--federal appropriation are provided solely for grants to rural hospitals. The department shall distribute the funds under a formula that provides a relatively larger share of the available funding to hospitals that (a) serve a disproportionate share of low-income and medically indigent patients and (b) have relatively smaller net financial margins, to the extent allowed by the federal medicaid program.
     (11) $36,002,000 of the health services account appropriation and $26,080,000 of the general fund--federal appropriation are provided solely for grants to nonrural hospitals.

In designing strategies, the primary strategy considered shall be selective or direct contracting with durable medical equipment and supplies vendors or manufacturers.
     (14) The department shall, within available resources, design and implement a medical care services care management pilot project for clients receiving general assistance benefits. The pilot project shall be operated in at least two of the counties with the highest concentration of general assistance clients, and may use a full or partial capitation model. In designing the project, the department shall consult with the mental health division and its managed care contractors that include community and migrant health centers in their provider network. The pilot project shall be designed to maximize care coordination, high-risk medical management, and chronic care management to achieve better health outcomes. The pilot project shall begin enrollment on July 1, 2004.
     (15) Within available resources and to the extent possible, the department shall evaluate and pilot a nurse consultant services program to assist fee-for-service clients in accessing medical information, with the goal of reducing administrative burdens on physicians and unnecessary emergency room utilization.
     (16) The department shall include in any pending medicaid reform section 1115 waiver application, or in any existing section 1115 waiver, a request for authorization to provide optional medicaid services that have been eliminated in this act to American Indian and Alaska Native persons as defined in relevant federal law who are eligible for medicaid only to the extent that such services are provided through the American Indian health system and are financed with one hundred percent federal medicaid matching funds.

The appropriations in this section include the increased portion of salaries and incremental fringe benefits for all relevant state-funded school programs in this part V of this act. Increases for general apportionment (basic education) are based on the salary allocation schedules and methodology in sections 502 and 503 of this act. Increases for special education result from increases in each district's basic education allocation per student. Increases for educational service districts and institutional education programs are determined by the superintendent of public instruction using the methodology for general apportionment salaries and benefits in sections 502 and 503 of this act.

     (2)(a) The superintendent of public instruction shall use the excess cost methodology developed and implemented for the 2001-02 school year using the S-275 personnel reporting system and all related accounting requirements to ensure that:
     (i) Special education students are basic education students first;
     (ii) As a class, special education students are entitled to the full basic education allocation; and

     (4) The superintendent of public instruction shall distribute state and federal funds to school districts based on two categories: The optional birth through age two program for special education eligible developmentally delayed infants and toddlers, and the mandatory special education program for special education eligible students ages three to twenty-one. A "special education eligible student" means a student receiving specially designed instruction in accordance with a properly formulated individualized education program.
     (5)(a) For the 2003-04 and 2004-05 school years, the superintendent shall make allocations to each district based on the sum of:
     (i) A district's annual average headcount enrollment of developmentally delayed infants and toddlers ages birth through two, multiplied by the district's average basic education allocation per full-time equivalent student, multiplied by 1.15; and
     (ii) A district's annual average full-time equivalent basic education enrollment multiplied by the funded enrollment percent determined pursuant to subsection (6)(b) of this section, multiplied by the district's average basic education allocation per full-time equivalent student multiplied by 0.9309.
     (b) For purposes of this subsection, "average basic education allocation per full-time equivalent student" for a district shall be based on the staffing ratios required by RCW 28A.150.260 and shall not include enhancements, secondary vocational education, or small schools.

     (a) "Annual average full-time equivalent basic education enrollment" means the resident enrollment including students enrolled through choice (RCW 28A.225.225) and students from nonhigh districts (RCW 28A.225.210) and excluding students residing in another district enrolled as part of an interdistrict cooperative program (RCW 28A.225.250).
     (b) "Enrollment percent" means the district's resident special education annual average enrollment, excluding the birth through age two enrollment, as a percent of the district's annual average full-time equivalent basic education enrollment.
     Each district's general fund -- state funded special education enrollment shall be the lesser of the district's actual enrollment percent or 12.7 percent. Increases in enrollment percent from 12.7 percent to 13.0 percent shall be funded from the general fund -- federal appropriation.
     (7) At the request of any interdistrict cooperative of at least 15 districts in which all excess cost services for special education students of the districts are provided by the cooperative, the maximum enrollment percent shall be calculated in accordance with subsection (6)(b) of this section, and shall be calculated in the aggregate rather than individual district units. For purposes of this subsection, the average basic education allocation per full-time equivalent student shall be calculated in the aggregate rather than individual district units.
     (8) To the extent necessary, $25,746,000 of the general fund -- federal appropriation is provided for safety net awards for districts with demonstrated needs for state special education funding beyond the amounts provided in subsection (5) of this section. If safety net awards exceed the amount appropriated in this subsection (8), the superintendent shall expend all available federal discretionary funds necessary to meet this need. Safety net funds shall be awarded by the state safety net oversight committee subject to the following conditions and limitations:
     (a) The committee shall consider unmet needs for districts that can convincingly demonstrate that all legitimate expenditures for special education exceed all available revenues from state funding formulas. In the determination of need, the committee shall also consider additional available revenues from federal and local sources. Differences in program costs attributable to district philosophy, service delivery choice, or accounting practices are not a legitimate basis for safety net awards.
     (b) The committee shall then consider the extraordinary high cost needs of one or more individual special education students. Differences in costs attributable to district philosophy, service delivery choice, or accounting practices are not a legitimate basis for safety net awards.
     (c) The maximum allowable indirect cost for calculating safety net eligibility may not exceed the federal restricted indirect cost rate for the district plus one percent.
     (d) Safety net awards shall be adjusted based on the percent of potential medicaid eligible students billed as calculated by the superintendent in accordance with chapter 318, Laws of 1999.
     (e) Safety net awards must be adjusted for any audit findings or exceptions related to special education funding.
     (9) The superintendent of public instruction may adopt such rules and procedures as are necessary to administer the special education funding and safety net award process.

     (10) The safety net oversight committee appointed by the superintendent of public instruction shall consist of:
     (a) One staff from the office of superintendent of public instruction;
     (b) Staff of the office of the state auditor; and
     (c) One or more representatives from school districts or educational service districts knowledgeable of special education programs and funding.
     (11) A maximum of $678,000 may be expended from the general fund -- state appropriations to fund 5.43 full-time equivalent teachers and 2.1 full-time equivalent aides at children's orthopedic hospital and medical center. This amount is in lieu of money provided through the home and hospital allocation and the special education program.
     (12) $1,000,000 of the general fund -- federal appropriation is provided for projects to provide special education students with appropriate job and independent living skills, including work experience where possible, to facilitate their successful transition out of the public school system.

At least thirty percent of these moneys used in any given funding cycle shall be for the benefit of projects located in rural areas of the state as defined by the department. If the department determines that it has not received an adequate number of suitable applications for rural projects during any given funding cycle, the department may allocate unused moneys for projects in nonrural areas of the state.
     (2) Activities eligible for assistance from the housing trust fund and other legislative appropriations include, but are not limited to:
     (a) New construction, rehabilitation, or acquisition of low and very low-income housing units;
     (b) Rent subsidies;
     (c) Matching funds for social services directly related to providing housing for special-need tenants in assisted projects;
     (d) Technical assistance, design and finance services and consultation, and administrative costs for eligible nonprofit community or neighborhood-based organizations;
     (e) Administrative costs for housing assistance groups or organizations when such grant or loan will substantially increase the recipient's access to housing funds other than those available under this chapter;

All projects and activities shall be evaluated by some or all of the criteria under subsection (3) of this section, and similar projects and activities shall be evaluated under the same criteria.
     (3) The department shall give preference for applications based on some or all of the criteria under this subsection, and similar projects and activities shall be evaluated under the same criteria:
     (a) The degree of leveraging of other funds that will occur;
     (b) The degree of commitment from programs to provide necessary habilitation and support services for projects focusing on special needs populations;
