FY14 Budget and Caseload Update Fiscal Committee May 5, 2014. FY14 Caseload Review.
E N D
FY14 Caseload Review • The CNS and SEIU rate increases were applied this month. The increase to the FY2014 budget has been incorporated into the caseload forecasts. The additional funding may be contributing to the surplus increase in the DTA and Income Eligible Accounts. • Waitlist Remediation Initiative Status: As of April 25th the CCRRs are reporting there are 3100 children with active placements. • The CCRRs have been instructed to discontinue placing additional children as we assess the backfilling policy for the FY15 impact and current surplus. • The surplus increased $1.38M to $1.76M. • The projection assumes that the 3,100 children will be maintained for the remainder of FY2014. • Income Eligible: We project a surplus of approximately $7.1M for IE (including the Waitlist Remediation surplus of $1.7M), a increase of $1.9M compared to last month of $5.2M. • Vouchers: The CCRRs have been instructed to discontinue placing additional children as we access the backfilling policy for the FY15 impact and current surplus • As of April 25th, the CCRRs have placed 2,033 of the total allotment (1,866) or 108.9%. The projection assumes the caseload will remain flat (excluding late billing) for the remainder of FY2014. • Contracts: The projected surplus is dependent upon the contract providers achieving maximum obligation or filling all their slots for the remainder of the year. Currently, of all contracts slots available (regular and flex), only 90.6% are filled.
FY14 March Caseload Review • DTA-Related Caseload: After nine months of actual numbers, EEC is forecasting a surplus of $3.8M, an increase of approximately $800K when compared to last month ($3.0M). March billed caseload reflects a net decrease (25) when compared to February. • Supportive Caseload: Expenditures have increased due to the use of expansion slots; EEC is monitoring this closely. We are at 108% utilization as of the end of April. The forecast builds in the increase from 104% (March 2014) to 108% through the end of FY2014. EEC is reporting a deficit of approximately $905K. Access to expansion slots continues to allow for more children to be served in areas where there is the capacity and the need. • Part Time Rate Increase : The part-time increase is effective July 1, 2014.
