The department of human services shall ensure that an annual external evaluation of the statewide program and each county or regional program is conducted by an independent outside entity. The department may contract with the outside entity to conduct an external evaluation of those counties that opted not to participate in the collaborative management program. The department of human services shall utilize moneys in the performance-based collaborative management incentive cash fund created in section 24-1.9-104, or any general fund moneys appropriated for this purpose, for annual external evaluations of the counties participating in memorandums of understanding pursuant to section 24-1.9-102, also known as the collaborative management program, as well as external evaluations as determined by the department of human services of those counties that opted to not participate in the collaborative management program. The annual external evaluation must include any evaluation that may be required in connection with a waiver authorized pursuant to section 24-1.9-102 (4) and an evaluation of whether the parties to a collaborative management program have successfully met or exceeded the performance measures identified in the parties' memorandum of understanding pursuant to section 24-1.9-102 (2)(i). Each county participating in the collaborative management program shall participate fully in the annual external evaluation.
