  Provided, Further, That notwithstanding the provisions of Act 184
of 1977 as amended relating to child day care facilities, the
department is granted the authority to grant provisional licenses,
provisional approvals and provisional registrations to new
facilities covered under Articles II, III, and V of Act 184 of 1977
as amended for a period no longer than a year and to grant or
extend provisional licenses, provisional approvals and provisional
registrations to existing facilities covered under Articles II,

expressed in terms of the patient days purchased for the previous
complete fiscal year; the estimate of budgeted patient days for the
on-going fiscal year. Further, as it relates to long term care
patient days, the Department shall provide information as to the
total number of long term care beds available statewide by facility
classification (Skilled/Intermediate); the total number of patient
days purchased by the Medicaid program for the last completed
fiscal year, this information being separately presented based upon

cost for each total of patient days. Further, for the ongoing year,
any refinement of estimated expenditures for long term care will be
fully explained as it relates to number of patient days or cost
increases.
  Provided, Further, That the Department of Social Services shall
continue to actively develop alternatives to all phases of
institutionalization of Medicaid eligible patients.
  Provided, Further, That the Long Term Care Policy Council,
composed of the following:
  the Governor or his designee 
  the Commissioner of DSS
  the Commissioner of DHEC
  the Commissioner of DMH
  the Commissioner of DMR
  the Director of Commission on Aging
  the Executive Director of SHHSFC
shall implement a statewide long term care management system which
incorporates pre admission assessment, case management services,
and provides continued oversight of this system.
  Provided, Further, That no later than the 25th day of each
calendar month beginning on July 1, 1984, and continuing through
June, 1985, the Department of Social Services shall prepare a
report that includes, but is not limited to, a summary of:
  (a) projected and actual Title XIX expenditures by month and year
to date and the estimated deficiency or excess for the month and
year to date. Expenditures will be reported on a monthly paid basis
and any expenditures for previous report periods will be
appropriately identified.

Oversight Committee, (3) the Chairman of the House Ways and Means
Committee, and (4) the Governor.
  Provided, Further, That it is the intent of the General Assembly
that the Department of Social Services move from the direct
operation of child development and day care services to the
provision of such services on a contractual basis so as to realize
greater efficiencies in the child care program. In determining
greater efficiencies consideration must be given to the loss of
employment and the resulting cost to the State in unemployment
compensation. The Department of Social Services shall assess the
feasibility on utilizing services in Direct Operation Programs if
doing so would reduce the unit cost or total cost of the program.
The Department of Social Services shall submit a progress report on
the feasibility assessment to the Social Services Advisory
Committee no later than December 1, 1984.
  Provided, Further, That the Medicaid program long term care
institutional providers shall substitute a composite index,
developed by the Budget and Control Board Research and Statistical
Services Division in place of the consumer price index, to reflect
the respective costs of the components of the Medicaid program
expenditures in computing the inflation factor in long term
personal care contractual arrangements involving reimbursement of
providers. The Budget and Control Board shall update the composite
index so as to have the index available for each contract renewal.
  Provided, Further, That medicaid reimbursements related to
allowable travel costs shall be limited to reimbursement rates
established by the Budget and Control Board for State Employees.
The reimbursement shall not be based on a depreciation schedule.
  Provided, Further, That DSS shall adhere to the Appropriation Act
and refrain from implementing fee increases during the fiscal year
which results in program deficits.
  Provided, Further, That DSS shall collect the total amount
identified as overpayments made to providers in accordance with
Third Party Recovery guidelines.
  Provided, Further, That any of the above stated provisos
pertaining to the Medicaid Program which relate specifically to the
current rate methodology for long term care institutions shall be
waived if a different rate methodology is adopted which would
render such proviso inapplicable. In the event that the current
reimbursement mechanism is materially modified or replaced with a
new mechanism, DSS shall submit such change to the Health Care
Planning and Oversight Committee for review and approval prior to
the implementation of the change. Further, should funding
limitations render any of the Medicaid provisos inappropriate to
implement, DSS shall request relief therefrom by submitting
justification to the Health Care Planning and Oversight Committee
which is empowered to grant such relief through this proviso. In
both reimbursement changes or funding limitations, coordination by
the Committee with the Governor's Office and the Budget and Control
Board is desired.
  Provided, Further, That the administrative organization and
operation of the State Office of the Department of Social Services
shall not interfere with nor encroach upon the statutory authority
of County Social Services Boards.
  Provided, Further, That no county shall supplement the salary of
any DSS employee during Fiscal Year 1984-85 except for those DSS
employees which received a salary supplement.
  Provided, Further, That the appropriation for Computer Services
contained in Subsection III A of this section shall be used to
develop statewide automation of the child support programs of both
the Department of Social Services and the Attorney General's
office. 
  Provided, Further, That appropriations included in Subprogram II
E entitled Battered Spouse shall be allocated through contractual
agreements to providers of this service. Such funds may not be
expended for any other purpose.
  Provided, Further, That notwithstanding any other provision of
this act, the funds appropriated herein for 'Community Long Term
