        AN ACT to amend the social  services  law,  in  relation  to  the  state
          reimbursement of county payments for certain document management soft-
          ware designed specifically for the child welfare industry

          The  People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-
        bly, do enact as follows:
 
     1    Section 1. The social services law is amended by adding a new  section
     2  390-n to read as follows:
     3    §   390-n.  State  reimbursement  for  document  management  software.
     4  Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the state shall reimburse  a
     5  local  social  services  district  the full amount expended by the local
     6  social services district to provide services to  children  who  are  the
     7  subject  of abuse, neglect or other forms of maltreatment via the use of
     8  document management software designed specifically for the child welfare
     9  industry. Document management software shall be reimbursed by the  state
    10  if the county has previously purchased or intends to purchase such soft-
    11  ware.  For  the purposes of this section, "document management software"
    12  shall mean  a  database  application  that  utilizes  advanced  document
    13  capture,  storage,  and  retrieval  technology  to establish a paperless
    14  environment both within the agency and in the field. Any county that has
    15  previously purchased such software must supply  adequate  documentation,
    16  including  any  receipts,  that  details  such purchase. The state shall
    17  disburse grants,  when  applicable,  from  the  general  fund  for  this
    18  purpose.
    19    § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
