There is hereby created in the State Treasury a fund for the Department of Human Services to be designated the "Department of Human Services Federal Disallowance Fund". The fund shall be a continuing fund, not subject to fiscal year limitations. It shall consist of monies received by the Department of Human Services which, in the opinion of the Commission for Human Services, may be subject to federal disallowances and interest which may accrue on said receipts. All monies accruing to the credit of said fund are hereby appropriated and may be budgeted and expended by the Department of Human Services at the discretion of the Commission for Human Services for eventual settlement of the appropriate pending disallowances. Expenditures from said fund shall be made upon warrants issued by the State Treasurer against claims filed as prescribed by law with the Director of the Office of Management and Enterprise Services for approval and payment.
The Director of Human Services may request the Director of the Office of Management and Enterprise Services to transfer monies between the Department of Human Services Federal Disallowance Fund and the Human Services Disbursing Fund or the Department of Human Services Medical and Assistance Fund, as needed for the expenditure of funds.
