In State Fiscal Year (SFY) 2002-03, the CQC will employ a staff of 95 to monitor care of persons served by the mental hygiene system, as well as to investigate complaints of abuse and reports of injuries and deaths of persons served within the system. In addition, the CQC administers the Surrogate Decision Making Committee Program which acts on behalf of persons in the mental hygiene system who are not competent to make medical care decisions for themselves. The program has been expanded over recent years so that its services are now available statewide. Federal funds support agency staff and contracts with not-for-profit agencies to implement protection and advocacy programs for the developmentally disabled, persons with mental illness, those with severe disabilities, and certain beneficiaries of Social Security. Commission programs providing protective services are: Technology Related Protection and Advocacy, Protection and Advocacy for the Developmentally Disabled, Protection and Advocacy for Individuals with Mentally Illness, Client Assistance, Protection and Advocacy for Beneficiaries of Social Security, and Protection and Advocacy of Individual Rights. The Commission also monitors care in Adult Homes and conducts mental hygiene service provider audits which have generated savings for the mental hygiene system. This agency is included in the Health, Mental Hygiene and Environmental Conservation appropriation bill. State Operations The Executive requests an All Funds appropriation of $11,642,000, representing a net increase in funding of $307,000, or 2.7 percent. This change reflects savings achieved through the transfer of two positions to Federal funding and nonpersonal service (NPS) reductions offset by negotiated salary increases and additional Federal grant support. Aid to Localities The Executive recommends no changes to Aid to Localities funds from the State Fiscal Year 2001-02 level. |
