Explanation 
The bill requires the Office of Policy and Management (OPM) to (1) 
conduct a review of the state purchase of service contracts with 
nonprofit human service providers, (2) provide a report on this review 
once every five years beginning February 1, 2026, (3) conduct a review 
of any reports that nonprofit human services providers are required to 
file with state agencies and (4) submit a report on this review once every 
three years beginning February 1, 2025.  
This results in a cost to OPM of up to $200,000 beginning in FY 25 for 
two additional staff and a cost of $82,300 beginning in FY 25 to the Office

The fringe benefit costs for most state employees are budgeted centrally in accounts 
administered by the Comptroller. The estimated active employee fringe benefit cost 
associated with most personnel changes is 41.25% of payroll in FY 25.  2024SB-00432-R01-FN.DOCX 	Page 2 of 2 
 
 
of the State Comptroller for associated fringe benefits.  
The bill also requires private provider organizations to receive 
payment within 45 days after the receipt of a claim, or receipt of services, 
whichever is later. This is not anticipated to result in a fiscal impact to 
the state. 
Senate "A" alters the original bill by moving out the date of one of the 
reports required by OPM, reduces the number of contracts OPM must 
review each year, removes various other requirements, and requiring 
private providers to receive payment within 45 days of a claim.  
The Out Years 
The annualized ongoing fiscal impact identified above would 
continue into the future subject to inflation.
