Amended FY 2013 Budget Highlights

Amended FY 2013 Budget Highlights
REVENUE SHORTFALL RESERVE The final RSR balance for FY 2012, after appropriation of the mid-term adjustment of $172.7 million in AFY 2013 is $378 million, which is an addition of $50 million over the final FY 2011 balance of $328 million.
REVENUES The AFY 2013 budget reduces estimated General Fund revenue growth from the original FY 2013 estimate by 1 percent ($180.7 million), but still projects 4.11 percent growth ($709.9 million) in the General Fund over FY 2012.
The Governor took a conservative approach in setting the revenue estimate given the remaining uncertainty nationally with the federal debt limit and budget negotiations that could impact state revenues.
As of March, tax revenue collections are up 5.2 percent over last year, which puts us on track to meet the revised FY 2013 revenue estimate while leaving some flexibility for contingencies should national issues weaken state revenues in the final quarter of the fiscal year.
In order to meet reduced revenue estimates and growth needs in K-12 and Medicaid, agencies have taken on average a 3 percent budget cut in both years, with the exception of select public safety and human services agencies.
EDUCATED GEORGIA

Community Health $237 million for Medicaid and PeachCare, including $212.4 million for expense growth, $9.8 million for prior year liabilities deferred to FY 2013, and $14.9 million to replace unrealized savings in FY 2013. Growth is offset by $30.3 million in reductions to
Medicaid. $16.6 million for private deemed and non-deemed hospitals in the Disproportionate Share Hospital program.
RESPONSIBLE AND EFFICIENT GOVERNMENT
Georgia Technology Authority $13.3 million for agencies for information technology (IT) expenses.

Revenue Shortfall Reserve

The 1976 RevenueShortfallReserve session of the General Assembly created the Revenue Shortfall Reserve in lieu of the Working Reserve. This reserve acts as a savings account or "rainy day" fund for the state should revenue collections decline unexpectedly or uncontrollably. Current law provides that the reserve cannot exceed 15% of the previous year's net revenue. For each fiscal year, the General Assembly may appropriate an amount up to 1% of the net revenue collections of the preceding fiscal year for funding increased K-12 needs. In addition, the Governor has the authority to release funds from the reserve in excess of 4% of the net revenue of the preceding fiscal year. The chart for FY 2011 includes agency surplus collected after June 30, 2011 and does not include funds used for mid-year K-12 adjustment.

1) All other Medicaid benefit expenditures do not include inpatient hospital services.

The U.S. Supreme Court decision, Olmstead v. L.C (1999) declared that unnecessary segregation of individuals in institutions might constitute discrimination based on disability and be a violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act. The decision affects qualified individuals with a physical, mental, or age-related disability who are receiving state-supported long-term care in a state hospital or nursing home that could also benefit from community placement and are not opposed to the move. It also affects people with disabilities who need state-supported community-based services to avoid going to state hospitals or nursing homes. Since the Olmstead decision, Georgia has taken steps to comply with the ruling by making more community services available and accessible to Georgians with disabilities.
