  8. Creating Program Series:A Key Piece of Budget Framework • Holly Jones - presentation • What is a program series? • Overview of the current ODADAS and DMH program series • Initial draft approach for new agency • Questions and discussion

  9. FY 14-15 Biennium Budget Planning • Goal – Consolidate DMH & ADA into new – One single department • Approach – • Review Departments existing (FY 13) Funding structure – look for obvious areas to merge • Seek input from internal staff and external stakeholders

  10. Program Series Explained: • From OBM Budget Guidance document for FY 14-15: • The underlying organizational structure for the budget request is the description of an agency by program. • A program series corresponds with a major area of focus for an agency and is made up of one or more programs, each of which has a narrower, more targeted focus on a specific aspect of the agency’s operations. • This structure allows for a more comprehensive budget request by clearly showing what is supported by each program. • Agencies will use Program Budget Requests to convey the request for appropriations within the limitations detailed in the Guidance document.

  11. Program Series (Categories)

  12. FY 13 Programs that would fall into Community & Recovery Services

  13. FY 13 Programs that would fall into Prevention Services

  14. FY 13 Programs that would fall into Program Management

  15. Appropriation Line Items • ALIs are specific to fund sources, i.e., authorization to spend from only one fund • ALIs provide spending authority for general or specific purposes as outlined in the budget bill • May be linked to ORC or OAC • May include earmarks or other caveats • The spending authority can be used only if sufficient cash is available, and vice versa

  16. Appropriation Line Items, 2 • We will organize this discussion by fund group • For GRF, should we have: • A combined subsidy line for both AOD and MH? • Specific, separate ALIs for AOD and MH services? • A combination of both? • For GRF, should we have: • General/broad expectations for use? • Line items for specific initiatives (e.g. opiates, kids services)?

  17. Appropriation Line Items, 3 • Budget is our key tool to explain the system and our priorities • Legislators, advocates, board members must be able to clearly understand it • We want to be able to use this budget framework to effectively advocate for our system in future years • Discussion

  18. Identify Challenge Issues • Block Grant & long term sustainability • Subsidy as comparable among communities • Other? • Discussion

  19. Next Agenda:Thursday 8/23, 1 PM – 4 PM • Review updates to program series • Review potential line item construction • Begin to discuss challenges – specify detail here as we close this first meeting • Begin to discuss transition plans (as applicable) • Other?

  20. ORC Revisions – Meetings Begin 8/17 • Review & recommendations will transcend all applicable ORC chapters • Primary focus on technical changes that directly support the consolidation • Potential focus on items of minimal controversy that improve the system • Draft code lists will be developed by ODADAS and DMH for discussion & modification

  21. ORC Revisions, 2 • We will place in parking lot those items which are not directly related to consolidation and which generate significant controversy • Rationale: we have limited time to prepare this plan, and we must keep primary focus on FY 14/15 budget • We will identify a logical time to address items in parking lot (accountability)
