FY13 Budget and Caseload Update Fiscal Committee April 1, 2013 FY13 Caseload Overview 2 Income Eligible: The Income Eligible account FY13 forecast is projecting a surplus of $11.7M which is approximately $2.3M less than last month’s projected surplus of $14.0M. Late billing for February is almost double the amount projected ($152K vs. $86K). Recalibrating the late billing projection increased the projected cost ($500K). Included in this month’s forecast is additional access for 739 children ($1.8M) from three priority populations on the waitlist. We opened access to 144 slots for homeless children and 625 vouchers for children of military families (deployed or active duty) and vouchers for siblings. Additional savings may be realized because of the various dates children start services. DTA-Related Caseload: The forecasted deficit has increased to $6.5M, a increase of approximately $1.2M. The change in forecast is driven by late billing ($600K) and increase in caseload ($600K). Late billing for February was more than twice the amount projected ($222K vs. 100K). January caseload was reported last month at 16,196 after February billing, caseload for January increased by 443 to 16,510. Supportive: The projected surplus of $2.3M is a $100k increase from the projected surplus last month of $2.2M. Summary: The surplus in total changed from $10.7M to $7.6M. The primary factors driving the increase are the additional access for priority populations, late billing, and the increase in DTA caseload. Projections for late billing are based on the current month late billing and historical month to month fluctuations in SFY2012. Late billing had been trending down. The significant increase this month is projected for the remainder of the year until it can be determined if this increase was a one-time anomaly.
