A BILL FOR AN ACT
RELATING TO HUMAN SERVICES AND HEALTH.
BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF HAWAII:
PART I
SECTION 1. According to the executive office on aging, the elderly population in Hawaii is one of the fastest growing in the country. Between 1990 and 2000, the number of persons aged sixty and older increased by nineteen per cent, compared to a nationwide increase of nine per cent. Studies conducted by the executive office on aging and the four county area agencies on aging have indicated that the elderly in Hawaii have a significant need for assistance in various areas and this need is outpacing the ability to provide assistance. Significant issues that arise with elderly people include health status, changes in family structure (caregivers), social security stability for the future, fear of health care burdens (financial stability), and changes in public responsibility. Case management and needs assessments of older adults are required to mold programs and services to meet the needs of the elderly community. As Hawaii's culture and values revolve around family, most caregiving of the elderly in Hawaii is provided by family members, which poses financial hardships for these family members. Financial stability and burden are the main issues for the elderly and their caregivers and families. Long-term care services are expensive and the high cost for services may lead to changes in living arrangements and family households, especially in Hawaii.
The kupuna care program was established in 1999 as a collaborative effort by several agencies in Hawaii to address the needs of the aging population and the issues arising from those needs. The program is home- and community-based, designed to address the increased need for affordable long-term care and the desire to remain in the community. Kupuna care is considered to be an alternative to the traditional long-term care options, which include hospitals, nursing homes, adult residential care homes, adult foster homes, hospice, senior housing, public guardianship, and other programs administered by other state offices. The goal of kupuna care is to give Hawaii's elderly population access to affordable and quality home- and community-based services that are client-centered and family-supportive, allowing the elderly to live with independence and dignity. The ten core services that are offered, which are a reflection of the greatest need, are:
(1) Adult day care;
(2) Attendant care;
(3) Case management;
(4) Chore;
(5) Homemaker;
(6) Personal care;
(7) Assisted transportation;
(8) Kupuna Care transportation;
(9) Home delivered meals; and
(10) Meals for the elderly.
In 2008, thousands of elderly people were served by kupuna care. According to the state program report for fiscal year 2008 as prepared by the executive office on aging, 3,277 elders received meals delivered to their homes, 1,744 elders were served by case managers, 874 elders used personal care, and 597 elders used the homemaker services. Kupuna care fills an important gap in assistance for the elderly in Hawaii and cuts in service would be detrimental to their ability to live with independence and dignity.
SECTION 2. There is appropriated out of the general revenues of the State of Hawaii the sum of $3,500,000 or so much thereof as may be necessary for fiscal year 2011-2012 and the same sum or so much thereof as may be necessary for fiscal year 2012-2013 to provide additional funding for the kupuna care program. This funding shall be in addition to the $4,854,350 executive office on aging base budget.
The sums appropriated shall be expended by the department of health for the purposes of this part.
PART II
SECTION 3. The legislature finds that the national and global economic crisis that began in the second half of 2008 has caused significant economic problems in numerous industries in the State, including the airline, cruise ship, tourist, and construction industries. Mass layoffs have been reported by an increasing number of Hawaii businesses statewide, from the agricultural sector to the medical-services sector. Difficult economic times and declining tax revenues have resulted in budget cuts for all state services.
The current and impending situation jeopardizes the safety net of basic human services, health, and education needs for Hawaii's residents and families. While all of Hawaii's residents will be affected by the situation, gap group families and families closest to the poverty line will suffer the most.
Pursuant to Act 304, Session Laws of Hawaii 1999, the legislature established the emergency and budget reserve fund, which is codified in section 328L-3, Hawaii Revised Statutes, as a temporary supplemental source of funding for the State of Hawaii in times of emergency, economic downturn, or unforeseen reduction in revenues. As set forth in section 328L-3, Hawaii Revised Statutes, specific purposes for the fund include maintaining levels of programs determined to be essential to public health, safety, welfare, and education. Section 328L-3, Hawaii Revised Statutes, also includes certain prohibitions on appropriations from the emergency and budget reserve fund. Appropriations for the following purposes are specifically prohibited:
(1) To meet expenses of the legislature;
(2) To provide for salary adjustments for officials appointed pursuant to article V, section 6; or article VI, section 3, of the Hawaii State Constitution and for others whose salaries are directly related to salaries of these officials; and
(3) To fund cost items in any collective bargaining contract.
The legislature finds that expenditures from the emergency and budget reserve fund are needed to meet the conditions of emergency, economic downturn, and unforeseen reduction in revenues that the State currently faces. Further, the legislature finds that the appropriations in this part are consistent with the purposes of the emergency and budget reserve fund.
The purpose of this part is to appropriate moneys from the emergency and budget reserve fund of the State of Hawaii to maintain the levels of programs determined to be essential to education, public health, and public welfare.
