MI SB1149

Changes the scope of the juvenile justice funding system to extend through section 117h instead of 117g, expanding the regulatory framework for county juvenile services.

Modifies the distribution of state appropriations for juvenile justice services, emphasizing the state's responsibility for funding purposes described in the section rather than just county-specific costs.

Requires county approval before the department may reduce distributed funds by amounts owed for care received in state-operated facilities or under specific child welfare acts.

Extends through May 1, 2018 temporary provisions requiring the state to pay 100% of administrative and rate increases for foster care, treatment foster care, and residential foster care services.

Implements a prospective payment system for foster care case management in counties with populations between 575,000 and 650,000, capping county contributions at the average of their previous five years' net contributions for child abuse and neglect cases.
