Program Authorization: Act 25 of 1974; Acts 680 and 786 of 1978; Act 400 of 1990
The mission of the Administration and Support Program is to oversee, administer and support the Patient Care Program and Community Supports Programs which directly provide residential living options and other supports and services to individuals with developmental disabilities.
In order to receive Title XIX funding, the Developmental Center must meet eight Conditions of Participation. The conditions are as follows: (1) Active Treatment, (2) Physical Environment, (3) Client Protection, (4) Facility Staffing, (5) Health Care Services, (6) Dietary, (7) Client Behavior and Faciltiy Practice, and (8) Governing Body. Taken as a whole the Conditions simply indicate that a facility may or may not participate in the Title XIX program. However, with 389 standards making up these conditions, quality in service provision is defined. These standards are comprehensive in nature and compliance is critical to the provision of good quality programmatic services.
The goal of the Administration and Support Program is to provide efficient and effective administrative and support services to the programmatic services of Peltier-Lawless Developmental Center.
The Administration and Support Program is a program within Peltier-Lawless whose purpose is to provide leadership and program support to meet certification standards and maximize resources of the agency.
The activities of the Administration and Support Program are: (1) Administrative Guidance, (2) Fiscal Management, (3) Human Resources, (4) Building and Maintenance and Repair, and (5) Housekeeping services.
OBJECTIVES AND PERFORMANCE INDICATORS
Unless otherwise indicated, all objectives are to be accomplished during or by the end of FY 1999-2000. Performance indictors are made up of two parts: name and value. The indicator name describes what is being measured. The indicator value is the numeric value or level achieved within a given measurement period. For budgeting purposes, performance indicator values are shown for the prior fiscal year, the current fiscal year, and alternative funding scenarios (continuation budget level and Executive Budget recommendation level) for the ensuing fiscal year (the fiscal year of the budget document).

RESOURCE ALLOCATION FOR THE PROGRAM
The Administration and Support Program of Peltier-Lawless Developmental Center is funded from Interagency Transfers. Interagency Transfers include Title XIX reimbursement for services provided to Medicaid-eligible residents received from the Department of Health and Hospitals, funds from the Department of Education for the School Lunch Program, and payment for support services provided to the Office of Public Health.
ANALYSIS OF RECOMMENDATION
The total means of financing for this program is recommended at 95.2% of the existing operating budget. It represents 85.5% of the total request of $1,359,747 for this program. The major reason for the decrease from existing operating budget is due to a nonrecurring carry forward which amounted to $37,401.
