MEMORANDUM

Posted:	January 21, 2021 09:42 AM
From:	Representative Gary Day
To:	All House members
Subject:	Increase in Reimbursement Rate for Guardians

In the near future, I plan to introduce legislation that amends the Human Services Code to increase the reimbursement rate for guardians of older adults from $100 to $300.  This increase would still require federal approval under the state plan.  The $100 rate was established in 1988 and has not received a substantial increase since.  This legislation will provide crucial funds to the guardians who are court-appointed to make life altering decisions on behalf of some of our most vulnerable citizens.  I welcome you in joining as a cosponsor of this important legislation.
