Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Older Adult Services Act. Requires the Department on Aging to investigate the cost of complying with the Act's provisions concerning the expansion of older adult community-based services, and to report these findings to the appropriation committees of both chambers assigned to hear the agency's budget no later than January 1, 2012. Requires the Department to recommend action in the alternative if the Department determines that compliance is cost prohibitive, and to identify priority service areas for the purpose of directing the allocation of new resources and the reallocation of existing resources to areas of greatest need. Changes the types of projects the Department may include in its Older Adult Services Demonstration Grants program. Makes other changes. Effective immediately.

House Committee Amendment No. 1
In regards to taxes that may accrue from any public or private sources to the Department on Aging, provides that such taxes shall be for the purpose of providing services and care to older adults (rather than older adult services).

House Committee Amendment No. 2
Replaces everything after the enacting clause. Reinserts similar provisions, but with the following changes: Restores a provision providing that specified requirements imposed on the Department on Aging concerning the expansion of older adult services are subject to the availability of funding. Removes the following projects from the list of projects the Department may include in its Older Adult Services Demonstration Grants program: small incentive grants to attract new providers; money following the person; cash and counseling; managed long-term care; respite care; and community-based support groups. Restores the following projects: evening and weekend home care coverage; small incentive grants to attract new providers; money following the person; cash and counseling; managed long-term care; and respite care projects that establish a local coordinated network of volunteer and paid respite workers, coordinate assignment of respite workers to caregivers and older adults, ensure the health and safety of the older adult, provide training for caregivers, and ensure that support groups are available in the community (rather than and at least one respite care project that establishes a local coordinated network of volunteer and paid respite workers, coordinates assignment of respite workers to caregivers and older adults, ensures the health and safety of the older adult, provides training for caregivers, and ensures that support groups are available in the community). Effective immediately.

House Floor Amendment No. 3
In regards to taxes that may accrue from any public or private sources to the Department on Aging, provides that such taxes shall be for the purpose of providing services and care to older adults (rather than older adult services).
