36-2029. Funding of facilities; contracts;
limitations
A. The division may use municipal, county, state and federal monies appropriated or
otherwise available for the evaluation and treatment of alcoholics to assist in the
establishment and maintenance of approved public or private treatment facilities. Such
monies may be expended for professional fees for services at an approved treatment
facility or in contract for advancement or reimbursement of services provided at an
approved treatment facility or any other appropriate manner and may be used for any
purpose necessary to provide evaluation and treatment at approved treatment
facilities. These monies may not be used for division salaries or any other purpose
within the division but may be used for consultation to the division in the interest of
approved treatment facilities.
B. A public or private treatment facility providing or intending to provide
evaluation and treatment and desiring to contract with the division for the furnishing of
such services shall submit a program, plan and budget to the division on the forms and in
the manner required by the division. If such facility is approved, the division may
contract with the facility for services as required and upon such terms and conditions as
the division shall require.
C. Each approved treatment facility shall provide the division with a record of all
federal, state, county, city and private monies received for the previous year and an
estimate of monies to be received by the facility for the following year.
D. An approved private or public treatment facility providing evaluation and
treatment may receive state funding upon complying with the rules and regulations
established by the division. Any such facility is not eligible for state funding until
approved by the deputy director.
E. The provisions of this article shall not be construed to place upon the division
or the state any liability for the well-being and care of alcoholics or persons
incapacitated by alcohol in a public or private treatment facility or the responsibility
for funding such programs beyond the limits of legislative appropriation therefor.
