of the budget, provided, however, that in
social services districts with a popu-
lation over five million no shelter
supplements other than those to prevent
eviction shall be reimbursed, and further
provided that such supplements shall not
be part of the standard of need pursuant
to section 131-a of the social services
law. Funds appropriated herein shall also
reimburse 29 percent of safety net assist-
A. 6440 8
ance expenditures, in social services
districts with a population over five
million, for emergency shelter, transpor-
tation, or nutrition payments which the
district determines are necessary to
establish or maintain independent living
arrangements among persons living with
medically diagnosed HIV infection as
defined by the AIDS institute of the state
department of health and who are homeless
or facing homelessness and for whom no
viable and less costly alternative to
housing is available; provided, however,
that funds appropriated herein may only be
used for such purposes if the cost of such
allowances are not eligible for reimburse-
ment under medical assistance or other
programs. Funds appropriated herein shall
reimburse 29 percent of safety net assist-
ance expenditures, in social services
districts with a population of five
million or fewer, for emergency shelter
payments promulgated by the office of

medically diagnosed HIV infection as
defined by the AIDS institute of the state

million or fewer, for emergency shelter
payments in excess of those promulgated by
the office of temporary and disability

reasonably approximate to 100 percent of
fair market rent, at local option which
the district determines are necessary to
establish or maintain independent living
arrangements among persons living with
medically diagnosed HIV infection as
defined by the AIDS institute of the State
department of health and who are homeless

viable and less costly alternative to
housing is available; provided, however,

shall only be made at local option and in
accordance with a plan approved by the
office of temporary and disability assist-
ance and the director of the budget.
Provided, however, notwithstanding section
153 of the social services law or any
other inconsistent provision of law, if
necessary funding, as determined by the
director of the budget, is secured in a
social services district from the medical
assistance program by reducing the capita-
tion rates paid to medicaid managed care
organizations by the amount of savings
resulting from stably housing individuals
living with medically diagnosed HIV
infection as defined by the AIDS institute
of the state department of health, the
social services district shall make such
emergency shelter payments in excess of
those promulgated by the office of tempo-
rary and disability assistance but not
exceeding an amount reasonably approximate
to 100 percent of fair market rent, and
the savings shall be used to reimburse 100
percent of the cost of such excess emer-
gency shelter payments for cases reim-
bursed under the safety net assistance or
family assistance programs in social
services districts with a population of
five million or fewer, in accordance with
a plan approved by the office of temporary
and disability assistance and the director
of the budget; provided further that
reimbursement shall be provided to medi-
caid managed care organizations through
adjustments to capitation rates should
actual gross savings not be realized as
determined by the director of the budget.
For persons living with medically diag-
nosed HIV infection as defined by the AIDS

health living in social service districts
with a population over five million who
are receiving public assistance, funds
appropriated herein shall be used to reim-
burse 29 percent of the additional rental
costs determined based on limiting such
person's earned and/or unearned income
contribution to 30 percent. For persons
living with medically diagnosed HIV
infection as defined by the AIDS institute
A. 6440 10

person's earned and/or unearned income
contribution to 30 percent. Such payments
of additional rental costs shall only be
made at local option and in accordance
with a plan approved by the office of
temporary and disability assistance and
the director of the budget. Provided,
however, notwithstanding section 153 of
the social services law or any other
inconsistent provision of law, if neces-
sary funding, as determined by the direc-

ance program by reducing the capitation
rates paid to medicaid managed care organ-
izations by the amount of savings result-
ing from stably housing individuals living
with medically diagnosed HIV infection as
defined by the AIDS institute of the state
department of health, the social services
district shall make such payments of addi-
tional rental costs, for cases reimbursed
under the safety net assistance and family
assistance program, and the savings shall
be used to reimburse 100 percent of the
cost of the additional rental costs deter-

any other inconsistent provision of law,
the office may reduce reimbursement other-
wise payable to social services districts
