§ 14139.51

If the department determines that a program or programs cannot reasonably be capitated, funds may be transferred separately from the capitation payment. The amount of those noncapitated funds shall be based on amounts that would have been expended by the state for those programs in the absence of the pilot program implemented under this article.

It is the intent of the Legislature that, if any local pilot project experiences net savings, those savings shall be used for project expansion and improvement, or to build the required tangible net equity, or if there is no need for expansion or improvement or to build tangible net equity, may be shared by the long-term care services agency and the state.
