INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE
ANNUAL BUDGET
FOR LOCAL HEALTH SERVICES
I. INTRODUCTION
The Annual Budget for Local Health Services is completed on a state fiscal year basis and is
used to establish budgets for many Department programs. In the Annual Budget, the
Department consolidates many of its categorical programs’ funding and Essential Local Public
Health Services (ELPHS) (formerly known as the local public health operation’s funding) into a
single, Comprehensive Agreement for local health departments. The Department's Plan and
Budget Framework serves as a principal reference point for budget development.
The Annual Budget for Local Health Services must be completed in accordance with and adhere
to the established requirements as specified in these instructions and submitted to the
Department as required by the agreement.
II. MINIMUM BUDGETING REQUIREMENTS
A. Cost Principles - Types or items of cost which will be considered for reimbursement are
generally consistent with definitions contained in Title 2 Code of Federal Regulations
CFR, Part 200 Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit
Requirements for Federal Awards.
B. Federal Block Grant Funds - Maternal & Child Health and Preventive Health Block
Grant funds may not be used to: provide inpatient services; make cash payments to
intended recipients of health services; purchase or improve land; purchase, contract or
permanently improve (other than minor remodeling defined as work required to change
the interior arrangements or other physical characteristics of any existing facility or
installed equipment when the cost of the remodeling incident does not exceed $2,000)
any building or other facility; or purchase major medical equipment (any item of medical
equipment having a unit cost of over $10,000 and used in the diagnosis or treatment of
patients, excluding equipment typically used in a laboratory); satisfy any requirement for
the expenditure of non-federal funds as a condition for the receipt of Federal funds; or
provide financial assistance to any entity other than a public or nonprofit private entity.
C. Expenditure and Funding Source Breakdown - For purposes of development, analysis
and negotiation activities must be budgeted at the individual expenditure and funding
source category level on the Annual Budget for Local Health Services.
D. Special Budget Requirements for Certain Categorical Program Elements - The
Annual Budget for Local Health Services is completed in the MI E-Grants System
through the application budget to include details for all program elements (excluding
Administration and Grantee Support).
E. Local MCH - Local MCH funds can be used to support the health of women, children,
and families in communities across Michigan. Funding addresses one or more Title V
Maternal and Child Health Block Grant national and state priority areas and/or a local
3
MCH priority need identified through a needs assessment process. Priority areas are
developed into Local MCH Work Plans which are described in the Annual Local MCH
Plan. These funds are to be budgeted as a funding source in two project categories.
The Local MCH projects need to be budgeted separately. Please note only two LMCH
project titles can be used:
• MCH – Children
• MCH – All Other
These funding sources cannot be used under the WIC element except in extreme
circumstances where a waiver is requested in advance of expenditures, and evidence
is provided that the expenditures satisfy all funding requirements. Local health
departments are encouraged to select only one to two performance measures and
delve deeper into the strategies in an effort to “move the needle.”
III. REIMBURSEMENT CHART
A. Program Element/Funding Source
The Program Element/Funding Source column has been moved to Attachment III and
provides the listing of all currently funded MDHHS programs that are included in the
Comprehensive Local Health Department Agreement.
B. Type of Project
The type of project designation is indicated by footnote and is used if the project meets
the Research and Development Project criteria. Research and Development Projects
are defined by Title 2 CFR, Section 200.87, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost
Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards.
Research and development (R&D) means all research activities, both basic and applied,
and all development activities that are performed by non-Federal entities. Research is
defined as a systematic study directed toward fuller scientific knowledge or
understanding of the subject studied. The term research also includes activities involving
the training of individuals in research techniques where such activities utilize the same
facilities as other research and development activities and where such activities are not
included in the instruction function. Development is the systematic use of knowledge and
understanding gained from research directed toward the production of useful materials,
devices, systems, or methods, including design and development of prototypes and
processes.
C. Reimbursement Chart
The Reimbursement Chart notes elements/funding sources, applicable payment
methods, target levels, output measures for each program/element having a performance
reimbursement option. In addition, the chart also provides the subrecipient, contractor, or
recipient designations, as in prior years:
4
IV. LOCAL ACCOUNTING SYSTEM STRUCTURE OF ACCOUNTS/COST ALLOCATION
PROCEDURES
As in past years, no additional accounting system detail is being required beyond local uniform
accounting procedures prescribed by the Michigan Department of Treasury, Local Financial
Management System requirements, documentation requirements of categorical program funding
sources and any local requirements. Some agencies may already have separate cost centers in
their accounting system to directly identify costs and related funding of required services, but
such breakdowns are not essential to being able to meet minimum reporting requirements if
proper allocation procedures are used and adequate documentation is maintained. All
allocations must have clearly measurable bases that directly apply to the amounts being
allocated, must be documented with work papers that will provide an adequate audit trail and
must result in a representative reporting of costs and funding for affected programs. More
specific guidance can be found in Title 2 CFR, Part 200 Appendix V State/Local Government
and Indian Tribe-Wide Central Service Cost Allocation Plans and the brochure published by the
Department of Health and Human Services entitled “A Guide for State, Local and Indian Tribal
Governments: Cost Principles and Procedures for Developing Cost Allocation Plans and Indirect
Cost Rates for Agreements with the Federal Government.
V. FORM PREPARATION - GENERAL
The MI E-Grants System on-line application, including the budget entry forms, are utilized to
develop a budget summary for each program element administered by the local Grantee. The
system is designed to accommodate any number of local program elements including those
unique to a particular local Grantee. Applications, including budget forms, are completed for all
program elements, regardless of the reimbursement mechanism, including Agency
administration(s) fee for service program elements, categorical program elements, performance-
based program elements and Medicaid Outreach associated program elements. Budget entry is
required for each major expenditure and source of fund categories for which costs/funds are
identified.
VI. FORM PREPARATION - EXPENDITURE CATEGORIES
Budgeted expenditures are to be entered for each program element, project or group of
services by applicable major category.
A. Salaries and Wages- This category includes the compensation budgeted for all permanent
and part-time employees on the payroll of the Grantee and assigned directly to the program.
This does not include contractual services, professional fees or personnel hired on a private
contract basis. Consulting services, vendor services, professional fees or personnel hired on
a private contracting basis should be included in “Other Expenses.” Contracts with
secondary recipient organizations such as cooperating service delivery institutions or
delegate agencies should be included in Contractual (Sub-contract) Expenses.
B. Fringe Benefits - This category is to include, for at least the specified elements, all Grantee
costs for social security, retirement, insurance, and other similar benefits for all permanent
and part-time employees assigned to the specified elements.
C. Cap Exp for Equip & Fac - This category includes expenditures for budgeted stationary and
movable equipment used in carrying out the objectives of each program element, project or
service group. The cost of a single unit or piece of equipment includes necessary
accessories, installation costs, freight and other applicable expenses associated with the
5
purchase of the equipment. Only budgeted equipment items costing $5,000 or more may be
reported under this category. Small equipment items costing less than $5,000 are properly
classified as Supplies and Materials or Other Expenses. This category also includes capital
outlay for purchase or renovation of facilities.
D. Contractual (Subcontracts/Subrecipient) - Use for expenditures applicable to written
contracts or agreements with secondary recipient organizations such as cooperating service
delivery institutions or delegate agencies. Payments to individuals for consulting or
contractual services, or for vendor services are to be included under Other Expenses.
Specify subcontractor(s) address, amount by subcontractor and total of all subcontractors.
E. Supplies and Materials - Use for all consumable items and materials including equipment-
type items costing less than $5,000 each. This includes office, printing, janitorial, postage
and educational supplies; medical supplies; contraceptives and vaccines; tape and gauze;
prescriptions and other appropriate drugs and chemicals. Federal Provided Vaccine Value
should be reported and identified on in Other Cost Distributions category. Do not combine
with supplies.
F. Travel - Travel costs of permanent and part-time employees assigned to each program
element. This includes costs of mileage, per diem, lodging, meals, registration fees and
other approved travel costs incurred by the employee. Travel of private, non-employee
consultants should be reported under Other Expenses.
G. Communication Costs - These are costs for telephone, Internet, telegraph, data lines,
websites, fax, email, etc., when related directly to the operation of the program element.
H. County/City Central Services - These are costs associated with central support activities of
the local governing unit allocated to the local health department in accordance with Title 2
CFR, part 200.
I. Space Costs - These are costs of building space necessary for the operation of the
program.
J. All Others (Line 11) - These are costs for all other items purchased exclusively for the
operation of the program element and not appropriately included in any of the other
categories including items such as repairs, janitorial services, consultant services, vendor
services, equipment rental, insurance, Automated Data Processing (ADP) systems, etc.
K. Total Direct Expenditures – The MI E-Grants System sums the direct expenditures
budgeted for each program element, project or service grouping and records in the Total
Direct Expenditure line of the Budget Summary.
L. Indirect Cost – These cost categories are used to distribute costs of general administrative
operations that have not been directly charged to individual subrecipient programs. The
Indirect Cost expenditures distribute administrative overhead costs to each program element,
project or service grouping. Two separate local rates may apply to the agreement period
(i.e., one for each local fiscal year). Use Calendar Rate 1 to reflect the rate applicable to the
first part of the agreement period and Calendar Rate 2 for the rate applicable to the latter
part. Indirect costs are not allowed on programs elements designated as vendor relationship.
An indirect rate proposal and related supporting documentation must be retained for audit in
accordance with records retention requirements. In addition, these documents are reviewed
as part of the Single Audit, subrecipient monitoring visit, or other State of Michigan reviews.
Following is further clarification regarding indirect rate and/or cost allocation approval
requirements to distribute administrative overhead costs, in accordance with Title 2 CFR Part
200 (formerly Circular A-87 2 CFR Part 225, Appendix E), for Local Health Departments
6
budgeting indirect costs:
1. Local Health Departments receiving more than $35 million in direct Federal awards are
required to have an approved indirect cost rate from a Federal Cognizant Agency. If your
Local Health Department has received an approved indirect rate from a Federal
Cognizant agency, attach the Federal approval letter to your MI E-Grants Grantee Profile.
2. Local Health Departments receiving $35 million or less in direct Federal awards are
required to prepare indirect cost rate proposals in accordance with Title 2 CFR and
maintain the documentation on file subject to review.
3. Local Health Departments that received approved indirect cost rates from another State
of Michigan Department should attach their State approval letter to their MI E-Grants
Grantee Profile.
4. Local Health Departments with cost allocation plans should reflect these allocations in the
Other Cost Distributions budget category. See Section M. Other Cost Distribution for
budgeting guidance.
5. As a Subrecipient of federal funds from MDHHS, a Local Health Department that has
never received a negotiated indirect cost rate, your Local Health Department may elect to
charge a de minimis rate of 10% of modified total direct costs (MTDC) based on Title 2
CFR part 200 requirements.
MTDC includes all direct salaries and wages, fringe benefits, supplies and materials,
travel, services, and contractual expenses up to the first $25,000 of each contract.
MTDC excludes all equipment, capital expenditures, charges for patient care, rental
costs, tuition remission, scholarships and fellowships, participant support costs, and
portions subcontractual/subaward expenses in excess of $25,000 per contract.
Attach a current copy of the letter stating the applicable indirect costs rate or calculation
information justifying the de minimis rate calculation to you MI E-Grants Grantee profile.
Detail on how the indirect costs was calculated must be shown on the Budget
Detail Schedule.
The amount of Indirect Cost should be allocated to all appropriate program elements with the
total equivalent amount reflected as a credit or minus in the Administration projects.
M. Other Cost Distributions – Use to distribute various contributing activity costs to
appropriate program areas based upon activity counts, time study supporting data or other
reasonable and equitable means. An example of Other Cost Distributions is nursing
supervision. The distribution process permits costs reflected in a single program element to
be subsequently distributed, perhaps only in part, to other programs or projects as
appropriate. If an allocation is made, the charges must be reflected in the appropriate
program element and the offsetting credit reflected in the program element being distributed.
There must be a documented, well-defined rationale and audit trail for any cost
distribution or allocation based upon Title 2 CFR, Part 200 Cost Principles Local Health
Departments using the cost distribution or cost allocation must develop the plan in
accordance with the requirements described in Title 2 CFR, Part 200. Local Health
Departments should maintain supporting documentation for audit in accordance with record
retention requirements. The plan should include a Certification of Cost Allocation plan in
accordance with Title 2 CFR, Part 200 Appendix V. The cost allocation plan documentation
7
is not required to be submitted unless specifically requested.
Cost associated with the Essential Local Public Health Services (ELPHS), Maternal and
Child Health (MCH) Block Grant and Fixed Fee may be budgeted in the associated program
element and distributed to the associated projects.
Federal Provided Vaccine Value should be reported on a separate line and clearly identified.
N. Total Direct & Admin. Expenditures – The MI E-Grants System sums the indirect
expenditures program element and records in the Total Indirect Expenditure line of the
Budget Summary.
O. Total Expenditures – The MI E-Grants System sums the direct and indirect expenditures
and records in the Total Expenditure line of the Budget Summary.
VII. FORM PREPARATION - SOURCE OF FUNDS
Source of Funds are to be entered for each program element, project or group of services by
applicable major category as follows:
A. Fees & Collections - Fees 1st & 2nd Party–
i. 1st party funds projected to be received from private payers, including patients, source
users and any member of the general population receiving services.
ii. 2nd party funds received from organizations, private or public, who might reimburse
services for a group or under a special plan.
iii. Any Other Collections
B. Fees & Collections - 3rd Party – 3rd Party Fees - Funds projected to be received from
private insurance, Medicaid, Medicare or other applicable titles of the Social Security Act
directly related to the cost of providing patient care or other services (e.g., includes Early
Periodic Screening, Detection and Treatment [EPSDT] Screening, Family Planning.)
C. Federal/State Funding (Non-MDHHS) - Funds received directly from the federal
government and from any state Contractor other than MDHHS, such as the Department of
Natural Resources and Environment (MDNRE). This line should also be used to exclude
state aid funds such as those provided through the Michigan Department of Treasury under
P.A. 264 of 1987 (cigarette tax).
D. Federal Cost Based Reimbursement – Funds received for Federal Cost Based
Reimbursement which should be budgeted in the program in which they were earned.
E. Federally Provided Vaccines – The projected value of federally provided vaccine.
F. Federal Medicaid Outreach – (Please note: to be used only for Medicaid Outreach,
CSHCS Medicaid Outreach or Nurse Family Partnership Medicaid Outreach program
elements.) Funds projected to be received from the federal government for allowable
Medicaid Outreach activities. This amount represents the anticipated 50% federal
administrative match of local contributions.
G. Required Match - Local – Funds projected to be local contribution for programs that have a
match contribution requirement (Please note: for Medicaid Outreach, CSHCS Medicaid
8
Outreach, or Nurse Family Partnership Medicaid Outreach, this amount represents the 50%
matching local contribution for allocable Medicaid Outreach Activities. Federal Medicaid
Outreach and Required Local match amounts should equal each other.)
H. Local Non-ELPHS - Local funds budgeted for the following expenditures:
1. Expenditures for services not designated as required and allowable for ELPHS funding
(e.g., medical examiner and inpatient maternity services); expenditures determined not to
be reasonable; and expenditures in excess of the maximum state share of funds
available.
2. Any losses arising from uncollectible accounts and other related claims. Under-recovery
of reimbursable expenditures from, or failure to bill, available funding sources that would
otherwise result in exclusions from ELPHS funding, if recovered.
However, no exclusion is required where the local jurisdiction has made and documented
a decision to have local funds underwrite:
a. The cost of uncollectible accounts or bad debts incurred in support of providing
required or allowable health services. An example of this condition would be for
services provided to indigents who are billed as a matter of procedure with little
chance for receipt of payment.
b. Potential recoveries or under-recoveries from other sources for the principal purpose
of providing required and allowable health services at free or reduced cost to the
public served by the Grantee. An example would be keeping fees for services at a
reduced level for the benefit of the people served by the Grantee while recognizing
that to do so limits recovery from third parties for the same types of services.
3. Contributions to a contingency reserve or any similar provisions for unforeseen events.
4. Charitable contributions and donations.
5. Salaries and other incidental expenditures of the chief executive of a political subdivision
(i.e., county executive and mayor).

D. Breast and Cervical Cancer Control Coordination Program Special Budget
Requirements
1. The Breast and Cervical Cancer Control Navigation Program (BC3NP) budget is to be
developed based on specific responsibilities of Local Health Departments (LHDs)
participating in the Breast and Cervical Cancer Control Navigation Program. LHDs
agreeing to participate in the program fall into two categories: LHDs agreeing to
participate as Local Coordinating Agencies (LCAs) and LHDs agreeing to participate
as Local Community Partners (LCPs).
a. LHDs agreeing to participate as Local Coordinating Agencies (LCAs) – LCAs
are responsible in assuring implementation of all program requirements and
policies and procedures. This includes client outreach and recruitment into
BC3NP to achieve yearly targeted caseload allocations, financial monitoring of
program expenses and claims for provision of client clinical services, obtaining
results of client services and entry of client data into the program’s secure
statewide database to monitor timeliness and completeness of care delivery
and authorize payment for services, and assuring appropriate providers are
contracted with the program to provide screening and diagnostic services to
enrolled clients. Only coordination expenses will be reimbursed through the
Comprehensive Agreement. No clinical services will be reimbursed
through the Comprehensive Agreement. All clinical service claims must be
billed to the MDHHS Cancer Prevention and Control Section for claim
processing. The LCA and/or direct service providers with contracts or letters of
agreement with the LCA will be responsible for billing clinical services claims to
the MDHHS Cancer Prevention and Control Section. The Coordination amount
14
of $205-$210 per woman is based on achievement of a target caseload
established for each LCA by MDHHS. Requirements. Each LCAs target
caseload is evaluated yearly based on the BC3NP Tiered Program
Performance requirements. There is no longer a match requirement. Match is
recorded by the program and reported to MDHHS in EGrAMS.
b. LHDs agreeing to participate as Community Partners (LCPs) – LCPs are
responsible for implementing strategies to identify and recruit clients eligible for
the BC3NP, enroll clients into the program, and arrange for provision of
screening and diagnostic clinical services through contracted providers. LCPs
will obtain results of all clinical services provided to BC3NP clients and send
this information to MDHHS for data entry into the secure program’s statewide
database. Information entered into the database will be reviewed by MDHHS
staff to evaluate timeliness and completeness of care delivery and authorize
payment for services. MDHHS staff will oversee financial monitoring of
program expenses and claims for provision of client clinical services. LCPs will
be awarded a base award (to be determined yearly by MDHHS) that is to be
used to implement strategies to recruit a minimum target caseload of BC3NP
women established for these agencies by MDHHS. No clinical services will
be reimbursed through the Comprehensive Agreement. All clinical service
claims must be billed to the MDHHS Cancer Prevention and Control Section
for claim processing. The LCP and/or direct service providers with contracts or
letters of agreement with the LCP will be responsible for billing clinical service
claims to the MDHHS Cancer Prevention and Control Section. There is no
longer a match requirement. Match is recorded by the program and reported to
MDHHS in EGrAMS.
For specific billing requirements refer to the most recent BC3NP Participation
Manual. For specific program requirements, including current fiscal year Direct
Service Reimbursement Rates refer to the current fiscal year Unit Cost
Reimbursement Rate Schedule for the BC3NP issued in August of each fiscal
year. The above referenced documents are available at https://michigan.gov/BC3NP
E. The Well-Integrated Screening and Evaluation for Women Across the Nation
(WISEWOMAN) budget is to be developed in the following way:
1. WISEWOMAN Coordination and Screening should be used to budget costs
associated with coordination of the program and delivery of the initial screening and
risk reduction counseling to WISEWOMAN participants. This includes collecting
answers to health intake questions, WISEWOMAN screening services (height, weight,
body mass index, 2 blood pressure readings, total cholesterol, HDL cholesterol, and
fasting glucose or A1C), and delivery of risk reduction counseling.
2. All Direct Service claims must be billed to the MDHHS Cancer Prevention and Control
Section for claim processing. The Local Coordinating Agency (LCA) and/or direct
service providers with contracts or letters of agreements with the LCA will be
responsible for billing Direct Service claims to the MDHHS Cancer Prevention and
15
Control Section. This includes follow-up fasting lipid panel, fasting glucose, A1c, and
one diagnostic exam. No Direct Services expenses will be reimbursed through the
Comprehensive Agreement. The Coordination and Screening amount is $150 per
woman based on a target caseload established by MDHHS.
3. Performance reimbursement will be based upon the understanding that a certain level
of performance (measured by outputs) must be met. There is a 95% caseload
performance requirement for this project.
For specific billing requirements refer to the most recent Billing Manual. For
specific program requirements, including current fiscal year Direct Service
Reimbursement rates and documentation related to the match requirement,
refer to the current fiscal year Special Budgeting and other Program
instructions for the WISEWOMAN Program issued in August of each fiscal
year. The above referenced documents are available at www.michigan.gov/

10/1/xx-09/30/xx.
1. Federal Medicaid Outreach
Fifty percent (50%) of local funds after the percentage of Medicaid clients enrolled in the
LHD CSHCS program has been applied. A table containing each health jurisdiction
Medicaid Participation Rate is located in the MI E-Grants site. The formula for
calculating the federal funding is as follows:
Federal funding = (Local funds x % of Medicaid Participation Rate) x 50% Federal
Administrative Match rate)
2. Required Match - Local
23
Represents the 50% match of local contributions. Budget the local match contribution.
Federal Medicaid Outreach and Required Match – Local must equal each other.
Additional local contribution that is not eligible for the 50% federal match should
be reported on the Local Funds – Other line.
3. Sources of Local Fund Types
Local Health Departments may utilize their county appropriation, funds received from
local or private foundations, local contributors or donators, and from other non-state/non-
federal grant agreements that are specific to Medicaid Outreach or are to be used at the
discretion of the health department as a source for matching funds to be used at the
discretion of the health department as a source for matching funds.
4. Comprehensive CSHCS Outreach and Advocacy and Case Management/Care
Coordination Funds
Should be reported in a separate program element.
D. Indirect Costs
There are three (3) options for indirect costs. They are:
1. an approved federal or state indirect rate;
2. a 10% de minimis rate; or
3. a cost allocation/distribution plan
Most Health Departments will use the cost allocation plan for indirect costs. For further
detail, go to VI. Form Preparation, L. Indirect Cost, on page 5 of this document.
E. Cost Allocation Certification
The Cost Allocation Certification remains on file with the Department until there is a change in
the Cost Allocation Plan. When the cost allocation plan on file with the program (MDHHS-
Medicaid-Outreach), the local health department must: 1) submit a copy of the revised cost
allocation plan with the budget request; and 2) complete a revised cost allocation methodology
certification. Both documents are to be attached to a Detailed Budget line in EGrAMS.
II. Financial Status Report (FSR) – LHDs seeking 50% federal administrative match must
request reimbursement by submitting their actual expenses for allowable Medicaid Outreach
activities on their quarterly FSRs through MI E-Grants.
A. Quarterly and Final FSR
LHDs must reflect the actual Medicaid Outreach expenses incurred on the quarterly and
final FSR. Actual expenses incurred must be specific to Medicaid Outreach as defined by
the MSA Bulletin 05-29 and not part of a direct service. All expenses should be supported
by an approved methodology and appropriate support documentation.
1. Federal Medicaid Outreach
Should be used to request the 50% federal administrative match for Medicaid
Outreach.
24
2. Required Match - Local
Should be used to report the local match for Medicaid Outreach. Both the federal
and local amounts must match.
3. Source of Funds Category
Other source of funds that are non-reimbursable for Medicaid Outreach (i.e.,
other federal grants, other MDHHS grants, etc.) should be reported on the
appropriate line has indicated in the Comprehensive Budget Instructions -
Attachment I (e.g., Local non-ELPHS or Local Funds – Other).
Total Source of Funds must equal Total Expenditures.
B. Nurse-Family Partnership Medicaid Outreach – Quarterly and Final FSRs
For Quarters 1-3, LHDs must reflect the actual Medicaid Outreach expenses incurred in a
separate program element titled Medicaid Outreach. Actual expenses incurred for each of
the listed expenditure categories are allowable but must be specific to Medicaid Outreach as
defined by MSA Bulletin 05-29 and not part of a direct service. Expenses should be
supported by a time study or other federally approved methodology.
1. Federal Medicaid Outreach
Should be used to request the 50% federal administrative match. Match is
determined by multiplying local contribution for the program by the percentage of
Medicaid enrollees. This product is then multiplied by 50% in order to determine the
eligible federal administrative match.
2. Required Match - Local
Should be used to report the remaining portion of the local contribution for the
Medicaid Outreach Match. Both lines should equal. Additional local contribution
related to service provision for non-Medicaid eligible participants which are
not eligible for the 50% federal match should be reported in Local Funds -
Other.
3. Source of Funds Category
Other source of funds that are non-reimbursable for Medicaid Outreach (i.e., other
federal grants, other MDHHS grants, etc.) should be reported on the appropriate
line has indicated in the Comprehensive Budget Instructions - Attachment I (e.g.,
Local non-ELPHS or Local Funds – Other).
C. CSHCS Medicaid Outreach – Final FSR
CSHCS Medicaid Outreach billing may occur before the final FSR through the MI E-Grants
system after Comprehensive Agreement CSHCS Outreach and Advocacy funds have been
25
fully expended. Local contributions eligible for the Medicaid Outreach match should
be cost distributed to the CSHCS Medicaid Outreach program element from the
CSHCS Outreach and Advocacy program element and reported as indicated below.
1. Federal Medicaid Outreach
Should be used to request the 50% federal administrative match. Match is
determined by multiplying local contribution for the program by the percentage of
Medicaid enrollees. This product is then multiplied by 50% in order to determine
the eligible federal administrative match.
2. Required Match - Local
Should be used to report the remaining portion of the local contribution for the
Medicaid Outreach Match. Additional local contribution that is not eligible for
the 50% federal match should be reported in Local Funds - Other.
3. Source of Funds Category
Other source of funds that are non-reimbursable for Medicaid Outreach (i.e., other
federal grants, other MDHHS grants, etc.) should be reported on the appropriate
line has indicated in the Comprehensive Budget Instructions - Attachment I.
4. Comprehensive CSHCS Outreach and Advocacy and Care Coordination
Should be billed as separate program element.
III. Comprehensive Local Health Department Agreement Obligation Report – filed in
September.
The Obligation report is used to estimate the payable amount due to Local Health
Departments from MDHHS for each program element.
A. In the Estimate Column, enter the maximum projected federal administrative match
earnings for allowable Medicaid Outreach Activities to be earned from Medicaid
Outreach on the Federal Medicaid Outreach row.
B. In the Estimate Column, enter the maximum projected federal administrative match
earnings for allowable Medicaid Outreach activities to be earned from CSHSC –
Medicaid Outreach. This should reflect the local contribution multiplied by the Medicaid
enrollment participation rate x 50% federal match rate.
C. In the Estimate Column, enter the maximum projected federal administrative match
earnings for allowable Medicaid Outreach activities to be earned from Nurse Family
Partnership Outreach. This should reflect the local contribution multiplied by the
Medicaid enrollment participation rate x 50% federal match rate.

MICHIGAN DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES
LOCAL HEALTH DEPARTMENT AGREEMENT
October 1, 2022 – September 30, 2023
Fiscal Year 2023
PROGRAM SPECIFIC ASSURANCES AND REQUIREMENTS
Local health service program elements funded under this agreement will be administered by
the Grantee and the Department in accordance with the Public Health Code (P.A. 368 of
1978, as amended), rules promulgated under the Code, minimum program requirements and
all other applicable Federal, State and Local laws, rules and regulations. These
requirements are fulfilled through the following approach:
A. Development and issuance of minimum program requirements, further describing the
objective criteria for meeting requirements of law, rule, regulation, or professionally
accepted methods or practices for the purpose of ensuring the quality, availability and
effectiveness of services and activities.
B. Utilization of a Minimum Reporting Requirements Notebook listing specific reporting
formats, source documentation, timeframes and utilization needs for required local
data compilation and transmission on program elements funded under this agreement.
C. Utilization of annual program and budget instructions describing special program
performance and funding policies and requirements unique to each State fiscal year.
D. Execution of an agreement setting forth the basic terms and conditions for administration
and local service delivery of the program elements.
E. Emphasis and reliance upon service definitions, minimum program requirements, local
budgets and projected output measures reports, State/local agreements, and periodic
department on-site program management evaluation and audits, while minimizing local
program plan detail beyond that needed for input on the State budget process.
Many program specific assurances and other requirements are defined within the referenced
documents including Minimum Program Requirements established for the following program
elements as of October 1, 2006:
1. Breast and Cervical Cancer Control
2. Clinical Laboratory
3. CSHCS
4. EGLE Drinking Water and Onsite Wastewater Management
5. Family Planning
6. Food ELPHS
7. Hearing ELPHS
8. HIV/STD Prevention Treatment
9. MDHHS Essential Local Public Health Services (ELPHS)
10. Michigan Care Improvement Registry
11. Vision ELPHS
12. WIC
For Fiscal Year 2023, special requirements are applicable for the remaining program
elements listed in the attached pages.
Attachment IV Reimbursement Chart
Program Element:
The Program Element indicates currently funded Department programs that are included in
the Comprehensive Local Health Department Agreement.
Reimbursement Methods
The Reimbursement Methods specifies the type of method used for each of the program
element/funding sources. Funding under the Comprehensive Local Health Department
Agreement can generally be grouped under four (4) different methods of reimbursement.
These methods are defined as follows:
Performance Reimbursement
A reimbursement method by which local agencies are reimbursed based upon the
understanding that a certain level of performance (measured by outputs) must be met in order
to receive full reimbursement of costs (net of program income and other earmarked sources)
up to the contracted amount of state funds prior to any utilization of local funds. Performance
targets are negotiated starting from the last year's negotiated target and the most recent year's
actual numbers except for programs in which caseload targets are directly tied to funding
formulas/annual allocations. Other considerations in setting performance targets include
changes in state allocations from past years, local fiscal and programmatic factors requiring
adjustment of caseloads, etc. Once total performance targets are negotiated, a minimum state
funded performance target percentage is applied (typically 90% unless otherwise specified). If
local Grantee actual performance falls short of the expectation by a factor greater than the
allowed minimum performance percentage, the state maximum allocation for cost
reimbursement will be reduced equivalent to actual performance in relation to the minimum
performance.
Fixed Unit Rate Reimbursement
A reimbursement method by which local health departments are reimbursed a specific amount
for each output actually delivered and reported.
ELPHS
A reimbursement method by which local health departments are reimbursed a share of
reasonable and allowable costs incurred for required Essential Local Public Health Services
(ELPHS), as noted in the current Appropriations Act.
Grant Reimbursement
A reimbursement method by which local health departments are reimbursed based upon the
understanding that State dollars will be paid up to total costs in relation to the State's share of
the total costs and up to the total state allocation as agreed to in the approved budget. This
reimbursement approach is not directly dependent upon whether a specified level of
performance is met by the local health department. Department funding under this
reimbursement method is allocable and a source before any local funding requirements unless
a special local match condition exists.
Performance Level If Applicable
The Performance Level column specifies the minimum state funded performance target
percentage for all program elements/funding sources utilizing the performance reimbursement
method (see above). If the program elements/funding source utilizes a reimbursement method
other than performance or if a target is not specified, N/A (not available) appears in the space
provided.
Performance Target Output Measures
Performance Target Output Measure column specifies the output indicator that is applicable for
the program elements/ funding source utilizing the performance reimbursement method. Output
measures are based upon counts of services delivered.
Relationship Designation
The Subrecipient, Contractor, or Recipient Designation column identifies the type of relationship
that exists between the Department and grantee on a program-by-program basis. Federal
awards expended as a subrecipient are subject to audit or other requirements of Title 2 Code of
Federal Regulations (CFR). Payments made to or received as a Contractor are not considered
Federal awards and are, therefore, not subject to such requirements.
Subrecipient
A subrecipient is a non-Federal entity that expends Federal awards received from a pass-
through entity to carry out a Federal program, but does not include an individual that is a
beneficiary of such a program; or is a recipient of other Federal awards directly from a
Federal Awarding agency. Therefore, a pass-through entity must make case-by-case
determinations whether each agreement it makes for the disbursement of Federal program
funds casts the party receiving the funds in the role of a subrecipient or a contractor.
Subrecipient characteristics include:
• Determines who is eligible to receive what Federal assistance;
• Has its performance measured in relation to whether the objectives of a Federal
program were met;
• Has responsibility for programmatic decision making;
• Is responsibility for adherence to applicable Federal program requirements specified
in the Federal award; and
• In accordance with its agreements uses the Federal funds to carry out a program for
a public purpose specified in authorizing status as opposed to providing goods or
services for the benefit of the pass-through entity.
Contractor
A Contractor is for the purpose of obtaining goods and services for the non-Federal entity’s
own user and creates a procurement relationship with the Grantee. Contractor
characteristics include:
• Provides the goods and services within normal business operations;
• Provides similar goods or services to many different purchasers;
• Normally operates in a competitive environment;
• Provides goods or services that are ancillary to the operation of the Federal program;
and
• Is not subject to compliance requirements of the Federal program as a result of the
agreement, though similar requirements may apply for other reasons.
In determining whether an agreement between a pass-through entity and another non-Federal
entity casts the latter as a subrecipient or a contractor, the substance of the relationship is more
important than the form of the agreement. All of the characteristics listed above may not be
present in all cases, and the pass-through entity must use judgment in classifying each
agreement as a subaward or a procurement contract.
Recipient
A Recipient is for grant agreement with no federal funding.

End Date: 9/30/2023
Project Synopsis
The BC3NP (Breast and Cervical Cancer Control Navigation Program) provides
individualized assistance to low-income women, < 250% FPL, in overcoming barriers
that may impede their access to receiving breast and cervical cancer services.
Services are provided to uninsured, underinsured, and insured women both within and
outside the program. Women identified for priority enrollment in the program are those
women in hard-to-reach populations, such as minorities, particularly African American,
Hispanic, Asian American, Arab American, and Native American women as well as
women who have insurance but do not know how to access the healthcare system to
receive breast or cervical cancer services.
Breast and/or cervical screening and diagnostic services are reimbursed for uninsured
and underinsured low-income women enrolled through the program that meet the
following criteria:
• Age 21-64; self-referred, referred from a BC3NP provider or a non-BC3NP
provider and requires cervical cancer screening and/or diagnostic services for
an identified cervical screening abnormality.
• Age 40-64; self-referred, referred from a BC3NP provider or a non-BC3NP
provider and requires breast cancer screening and/or diagnostic services for an
identified abnormality.
• Age 21-39; referred from either a BC3NP or non-BC3NP provider with an l
breast finding requiring diagnostic follow-up to rule out or confirm a breast
cancer diagnosis.
The BC3NP provides navigation services to low-income insured women, not enrolled
in the program, to assist them in accessing the healthcare system so they can
receive breast and/or cervical cancer screening, diagnostic, and/or treatment services
through their insurance provider.
Reporting Requirements (if different than contract language)
Instructions for use of MBCIS, a statewide database, will be provided to agencies that
contribute data to this database. The CPCS will exchange relevant program reports with
appropriate contractors through encrypted email or a secure file transfer system.

PROJECT: CLPP Lead Expansion
Start Date: 10/1/2022
End Date: 9/30/2023
Project Synopsis
MDHHS CLPPP’s mission is “to prevent childhood lead poisoning across the state
through surveillance, outreach and health services”. The goal of this pilot is to maximize
the number of children less than six years of age protected from lead poisoning and the
number of City of Detroit childcare facilities where lead hazards are controlled. This
goal should be accomplished through targeted lead testing and hazard controls efforts,
expanded education and outreach, and enhancing nursing and environmental services
to children with an EBLL 3.5-19 mcg/dL, residing in the 6 high risk zip codes in the City
of Detroit.
Grantees could achieve this goal through:
1) Targeted lead testing and hazard controls efforts, this can include:
• Lead education in early childhood care centers (daycares, Early Head Start,
Head Start)
• Lead inspection risk assessments in licensed childcare centers
2) Expanded education and outreach, this can include:
• Providing lead testing on site at early childcare centers
• Providing referrals to other essential health services (WIC, IMMS, Vision/Hearing
screening)
3) Enhancing nursing and environmental services to children with an EBLL 3.5-
19mcg/dL, residing in the 6 high risk zip codes in the City of Detroit, this can include:
• Non-Medicaid children – providing nursing case management home visits
• Coordinate lead inspection risk assessments for children with an EBLL, residing
in this zip code

PROJECT: Community Blood Lead Testing
Start Date: 10/1/2022
End Date: 9/30/2023
Project Synopsis
In response to the decrease in blood lead testing due to COVID-19 and the impact on
pediatric visits and WIC agency closure, there is a necessity to support local health
departments to facilitate innovative strategies in their jurisdictions to ensure access to
and completion of blood lead testing for children to identify lead exposure. It is
imperative that there is a community-based approach to blood lead testing. This pilot
funding is to support local health departments in planning for implementation of
strategies to increased blood lead testing of children <6 years old within their
jurisdiction. This planning will follow the ABC Building Blocks for Community Blood Lead
Testing, comprised of assessing, bolstering, and coordinating.
Grantees could achieve this goal through:
1) Assess current state of blood lead testing in the jurisdiction, this can include:
• Survey community partners and local health department to determine where
blood lead testing is taking place
• Identify gaps in blood lead testing availability
• Identify barriers to accessing blood lead testing
• Identify Medicaid Health Plans (MHPs) serving the community
• Identify Partners for promotion of lead testing
2) Bolster current testing efforts, this can include:
• Conduct provider education regarding recommendations for blood lead testing at
existing access points
• Conduct public education about existing testing options, targeting children less
than 6 years old
• Enhance access to existing local access points for blood lead testing by reducing
identified barriers to testing
3) Coordinate a testing plan, this can include:
• Work with Medicaid Health Plans to identify children due for screening and
perform targeted outreach
• Identify a plan for a “safety net” option for free testing for uninsured, those whose
insurance will not cover testing, those falling outside our target groups, or
communities needing timely access to testing
• Reporting Requirements (if different than contract language)
• Provide a workplan with a detailed overview of how your LHD will demonstrate
functional “safety net” option and ability to increase access to testing as needed
• Submit quarterly reports
Any additional requirements (if applicable)
• Attend quarterly call/in-person meetings
• Ensure all communication materials that are developed and distributed by the
grantee are approved by CLPPP if MDHHS funds are used.

Hispanic or Latino
Definition of a Visit:
A visit is a significant encounter between an E3 provider and a new (unduplicated) user
or established (duplicated) user. Each visit should be documented as appropriate to the
visit and provider (i.e., visits include an assessment, diagnosis and treatment plan
documented in the medical record and/or other documentation appropriate to the visit). A
user will likely have multiple visits per year.
Total Visits by Provider Type per quarter
*Mental Health Provider must be minimum Master’s prepared and licensed. Mental
Health Provider visits are counted as “face to face” contacts.
*Telehealth Visits can be tele-conferencing and tele-phonic. Telehealth visits should be
counted when using this mechanism during visit.
Note: Telehealth visits should be counted only once, as a Telehealth visit.
Do not count as a visit with BOTH the mental health provider AND a Telehealth visit.
Visits by Type per quarter
Count the visit by type of session provided. If the client was seen individually, count as an
individual visit. If the client was seen in a therapeutic group, count as a group visit. If a
client receives both individual and therapeutic group services, count both visit types.
QUALITY INDICATORS REPORT DEFINITIONS
For each of the following Quality Measures, report the YTD NUMBER each quarter.
Each quarter, your data will likely be equal to or greater than, the previous quarter. Note
that this is different than the quarterly reporting elements, where data is reported by
quarter for that specific quarter only.
Number of Unduplicated Clients Ages 10-21 Years with an Up-to-Date Depression
Screen
Report the number of unduplicated clients up-to-date with depression screening. This
information could come directly from a behavioral health screener or risk assessment, so
the number screened (flagged) for depression may equal or be very close to the number
of behavioral health screeners and/or risk assessments completed. (Note this is not the
same as a depression assessment conducted by a provider.) Do not double count
clients who were screened (flagged) for depression using behavioral health screen or risk
assessment and who also completed a specific depression screening tool (e.g., Beck’s,
PHQ-9, etc).
Number of Clients Age 12 and Up with a Positive Depression Assessment
(Diagnosis of Depression)
Report the number of clients (age 12 and older) with a diagnosis of depression according
to the score on the depression screening tool and psychosocial assessment by the
provider. Exclude the following: a) those who are already receiving documented care
elsewhere, and b) those who are referred out of the E3 site for treatment.
Number of Clients Age 12 and Up with a Diagnosis of Depression who have
Documented, Appropriate Follow-Up
Report the number of clients from the denominator who receive treatment at the E3 site
who have all of elements of an appropriate follow-up plan: a) had a psycho-social
assessment completed by 3rd visit (includes suicide risk assessment/safety plan), b) had
a treatment plan developed by 3rd visit, c) treatment plan reviewed @ 90 days (for those
on caseload for 90+ days), and d) screener re-administered at appropriate interval to
determine change in score.
For the following two quality measures, please note that you are NOT expected to
administer BOTH a behavioral health screen AND a risk assessment to each client. You
only need to administer one tool or the other as appropriate for age, developmental level
and need. Please report the number of behavioral health screens and/or risk
assessments provided to your clients:
Number of Unduplicated Clients Ages 5-21 Years with at least one Behavioral
Health Screen in the annual year.
Report the number of clients that receive a Behavioral Health Screen as appropriate for
age and developmental level. Examples of appropriate screening tools (to use) include
but are not limited to Pediatric Symptoms Checklist (17 or 34), Strength and Difficulties
Questionnaire.
Number of Unduplicated Clients with an Up-to-Date Risk Assessment / Anticipatory
Guidance
Report the number of clients that are complete with an annual risk assessment or
anticipatory guidance, as appropriate for age and developmental level. This may include
clients that are UTD because they completed the risk assessment/anticipatory guidance
in a previous fiscal year but are being seen in the E3 site in the current fiscal year.
BILLING REPORT DEFINITIONS
Reported on annual basis only, as requested:
Enter the dollar amount in claims submitted for services provided during the current
fiscal year (October 1- September 30), regardless of whether or not the claims were paid
during the fiscal year.
Enter the dollar amount received in revenue during the current fiscal year (October 1-
September 30), regardless of whether or not revenue resulted from claims filed during the
fiscal year.
For each of these entries, you will be entering data by:
Medicaid Health Plan/Medicaid (from a drop-down menu)
Commercial
Self-Pay
Other
Note that the Estimated Percent of Claims Paid and Unpaid (based on dollar amount, not
on number of claims) and Payor Mix will be auto totaled.
5 Most Common Reasons for Rejection of Submitted Claims
Select the five most common reasons for rejection of submitted claims from the
dropdown menu according to best-fit category.
DIAGNOSES AND PROCEDURE CODES AND FREQUENCY
Reported on annual basis only, as requested:
Mental Health Problem Diagnoses – Top 5 diagnoses from the mental health provider
CPT codes – Top 5 CPT codes - both the code and the name of procedure
End of the Year/ Fall Narrative
In addition to the quarterly data reporting. All E3 sites are required to submit an End of
Year/Fall Narrative Report. This report will focus on the Continues Quality Improvement
requirement as indicated in the Minimum Program Requirements document. The report
template will be given to E3 program sites by their assigned Program Consultant.
Completed Fall Narratives will be emailed to the assigned Program Consultant.
