BILL · 2005–06 SESSION · LATEST VERSION SHB 2333

HB 2333: Home care agency workers

Providing parity for home care agency workers.

Summary

The Department of Social and Health Services (Department) will establish a formula to convert the cost of the compensation increases negotiated and funded by individual providers of home services into an hourly amount that will be added to the statewide agency home care provider vendor rate.
The Department's contribution rate for health care benefits, including but not limited to medical, dental, and vision benefits, will be paid to agency providers of home services at the same rate as negotiated and funded for individual providers.
For Fiscal Year 2007, the per-hour amount added to the home care agency vendor rate will be limited to the cost of a 2 cents per hour wage increase and the cost of annual leave benefits negotiated and funded for individual providers of home care services.
