Low-Priority Programs in Kansas: Identifying Them and the Costs Associated With Operating Them Governments establish and fund programs to address perceived public needs that exist at a particular point in time. Once a program is established, it tends to be funded incrementally from year to year, without questioning whether it is critical to achieving an agency’s core mission or purpose, whether the program is achieving the goals the agency established for it, and whether it has outlived its original purpose. When revenues decline during economic downturns, existing programs typically are trimmed back, but aren’t necessarily looked at for potential elimination. Legislative interest has been expressed in reviewing agencies’ State-funded programs to determine which ones are most critical to protecting the health, safety, and welfare of the public and accomplishing agency missions, and which ones may be less critical or may no longer contribute to the core missions of the agencies that operate them.

This performance audit answers the following question:

Which programs in State government are low-priority programs, and what are the costs associated with them?

To answer this question, we identifi ed agencies that each spent more than $4 million annually in State dollars—from the State General Fund or from four other State funds that can be used to fi nance general State expenditures. We developed a uniform data- collection document and asked offi cials from each selected agency to identify, describe, and provide certain expenditure and demographic information about the various State-funded programs or subprograms they operate. Also, we asked offi cials to prioritize those programs by indicating which ones they would “buy fi rst, buy next, and buy last” if State moneys available to fund those programs were limited.

Within the “buy last” category, we also asked agencies to identify any programs they would recommend not funding, even if moneys were available in the future. Finally, we conducted supplemental analyses looking at the costs the State incurs in the Medicaid Program by providing optional services to optional populations, and in the Special Education Program by providing non-mandatory services for gifted students.

A copy of the scope statement for this audit approved by the Legislative Post Audit Committee is included in Appendix A. For reporting purposes, we’ve modiﬁ ed the question somewhat.

PERFORMANCE AUDIT REPORT 1 Legislative Division of Post Audit 09PA05 February 2009 We conducted this performance audit in accordance with generally accepted government auditing standards, with certain exceptions. The standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain suffi cient and appropriate evidence to provide a reasonable basis for our fi ndings and conclusions based on our audit objectives. Because this was essentially an audit that asked numerous agencies to inventory, describe, and prioritize the many programs and subprograms they operate, we had to rely in large part on the self- reported information they provided. We did limited reliability testing of some of the information agencies reported. Those tests included comparing the actual 2008 and estimated 2009 aggregate State expenditures agencies reported to the numbers shown in the Governor’s Budget Report for Fiscal Year 2010, checking statutory citations for a sample of agency programs, checking the math for all the dollar fi gures agencies reported, and, at a high level, comparing program information compiled by the Legislative Research Department with the programs agencies had reported to us. We also discussed with agency offi cials anything they had submitted on their data-collection document that appeared to us to be a potential reporting problem. We didn’t test the other data agencies self-reported, such as program and subprogram-level expenditures, the amounts of federal funding listed for each program, agencies’ assertions about whether or how much federal funding would be lost if State funding for certain programs or subprograms were eliminated, or whether certain items had already been included in their reduced-resource budgets. Regarding the latter issue, the Legislature will need to obtain additional information from agency offi cials before any policy decisions are made. Although the steps we took can’t provide absolute assurance that the information agencies reported is accurate, we think they were suffi cient to provide a reasonable level of assurance that this information isn’t grossly inaccurate or incomplete, and that it provides a reasonable basis for any fi ndings and conclusions contained in this report. Still, the reader should consider the limitations of the testwork we were able to do in reviewing the information provided.

2 PERFORMANCE AUDIT REPORT Legislative Division of Post Audit 09PA05 February 2009 Question 1: Which Programs in State Government Are Low-Priority Programs, and What Are the Costs Associated With Them?

ANSWER IN BRIEF: To help identify programs that have the lowest priority in relation to State agencies’ core missions and objectives, we asked agencies to identify and prioritize their programs and subprograms that receive at least some State funding into “buy fi rst, buy next, buy last, or don’t buy” categories. Agencies were asked to put about 80% of their State program funding in the “buy fi rst” category, and about 10% each in the “buy next” and “buy last” categories. This approach was intended to give agency offi cials and legislators a different look at State spending— if State funding is reduced, could some whole programs or subprograms be eliminated, rather than reducing staffi ng or service levels but leaving those programs intact?

Agencies placed programs, subprograms, and some activities accounting for about $500 million in State spending into the “buy last” category. Those included such diverse programs and subprograms as correctional facilities or other program sites, substantial highway maintenance projects, and provider rates or grants for various services. Many agency offi cials cautioned that the programs and subprograms they put into the “buy last” category were critical to their missions or to the people of Kansas, but that they had placed them there to fulfi ll the audit instructions. Agencies reported that the costs for some of these programs and subprograms have been reduced in their fi scal year 2009 or 2010 budgets.

Several agencies also put about $23 million in State spending for programs or subprograms into the “don’t buy” category. Those included closing a juvenile correctional facility, eliminating payment inefﬁ ciencies from the Medicaid Program, and eliminating the funeral assistance program. Agencies reported they already had cut essentially all these costs in their ﬁ scal year 2009 or 2010 budgets.

This Audit Gives The Legislative Post Audit Committee approved this audit on November Legislators a 18, 2008. In deciding how to answer the audit question and still have Different Way of information ready for use during the 2009 legislative session, we had Looking at two choices: conduct an in-depth review of all programs in a few State Agency State agencies, or ask a large number of agencies to compile summary Expenditures information about and prioritize their own programs and subprograms. While the ﬁ rst approach would have allowed us to draw conclusions and make recommendations about the priority level and need for those programs, it would have provided limited usefulness during this legislative session because of its more narrow focus. As a result, with the approval of the Legislative Post Audit Committee, we chose the second approach. PERFORMANCE AUDIT REPORT 3 Legislative Division of Post Audit 09PA05 February 2009 That approach will give legislators a different way of looking at a number of State agencies’ expenditures. When faced with having to reduce spending, agency ofﬁ cials and policymakers often look at such actions as hiring freezes or across-the-board reductions in agency budgets. In recent years, however, several states have begun to look more closely at the programs and services government offers in an attempt to prioritize government spending. For example, the state of Washington started prioritizing its governmental activities in 2002 in response to revenue shortfalls that followed the terrorist attacks on 9/11. Under a results-based framework called “Priorities of Government,” executive-branch leaders and agency experts worked together to establish a process for focusing on statewide outcomes as the criteria for government spending, rather than on incremental increases of expenditures in individual agencies. In general, that process involves the following:

A group of Washington government ofﬁ cials, with input from business leaders and others, came to a consensus on a list of expected statewide results that citizens expect from government spending. This list included 10 key results. During each biennial budget cycle, each of the 10 key result areas is assigned to a team consisting of knowledgeable experts from various agencies. Teams are led by representatives from the Governor’s budget or policy ofﬁ ces.

Each team prioritizes all state agency activities within its assigned result area—including both administrative and programmatic activities—into four categories:

Highest-priority activities: activities considered by the team to be the most important in terms of maximizing results (90% of the agency’s total state allocation can go into this category)

Lower-priority activities: those things the team would buy with the remaining 10% of their total state allocation

Buy-next activities: those activities the team would buy if more money were available

Don’t-buy activities: those things the team would not buy, even if more money were available

Along with the list of prioritized activities, each team prepares a one- page discussion about the strategic choices that defi ne the team’s general purchase plan. This information is shared with state and local government leaders and offi cials in the private and non-profi t sectors for comments and feedback, and a report is prepared and submitted to the Governor for consideration during the budget process.

Washington’s Priorities-of-Government process isn’t the ﬁ nal step in determining what that state’s budget will look like, but it does provide a different perspective on agency spending that can be used during the budget and appropriations processes. When combined with other information and policy considerations, such approaches can be useful to state policymakers who have to decide where spending reductions can be made with the least amount of harm to the state’s citizens. 4 PERFORMANCE AUDIT REPORT Legislative Division of Post Audit 09PA05 February 2009 The approach we used for this audit was a modiﬁ ed version of the approach Washington uses as part of its Priorities-of-Government process. For this exercise, we asked agencies to prioritize their programs and subprograms into the categories listed below. We told them to put programs encompassing about 10% of their State funding in the “buy last” category as though they only had 90% of their State funding available.

Buy ﬁ rst: those they would “buy” with the ﬁ rst 80% of the State program funds available to them

Buy next: those they would “buy” with the remaining 10% of the State program funds available to them

Buy last: those they would “buy” when additional State funds became available (beyond the 90% level we assumed for this exercise). Within the “buy next and last” categories, we asked agencies to rank their priorities from most important to least important to meeting their core mission and goals. Within this last category we also asked agencies to identify those programs or subprograms they would not buy even if additional State funds became available, thus resulting in a fourth category “Don’t Buy.”

Because of time constraints and a lack of centralized information about agency programs and subprograms, we focused on agencies that spent at least $4 million in State dollars in ﬁ scal year 2008 from any of the following sources: State General Fund, Children’s Initiatives Fund, Economic Development Initiatives Fund, State Highway Fund, and State Water Plan Fund. As described in the box below 57 State entities initially fell into this category; a number of them subsequently were excluded from this review.

Agencies Were Included in This Audit Based on The State Dollars They Spent During Fiscal Year 2008

We couldn’t include all State agencies in this review. We initially identiﬁ ed 57 State entities—including the Legislature and the Judicial Branch—that each spent at least $4 million in State dollars in ﬁ scal year 2008 from any of the following sources: State General Fund, Children’s Initiatives Fund, Economic Development Initiatives Fund, State Highway Fund, and State Water Plan Fund. We excluded several agencies or branches of government from this report for the following reasons:

The Kansas Public Employees Retirement System (KPERS), because its only program is providing retirement and disability beneﬁ ts for public employees.

The Board of Indigents Defense Services, because its only function is to provide criminal defense for indigent people charged with a crime, as required by the U.S. Constitution.

The Legislature, because under government auditing standards we are not considered to be independent if we audit the branch of government we are assigned to.

The Regents’ institutions, because we currently are conducting a series of audits of the universities that will focus on efﬁ ciency issues—including reviewing low-priority programs. The Board of Regents was included in this report, but we allowed it to exclude over $160 million in State moneys that essentially are distributed to community colleges, technical schools and colleges, Washburn University, and state universities for speciﬁ c enhancements.

That left the Children’s Cabinet, the Judicial Branch, and 45 State agencies covered by this audit. The Department of Social and Rehabilitation Services, the Juvenile Justice Authority, and the Department of Corrections included information about the institutions they oversee, in addition to their own operations.

PERFORMANCE AUDIT REPORT 5 Legislative Division of Post Audit 09PA05 February 2009 In their responses to our data request, we asked the 47 entities that were part of our review to do the following:

• Exclude any of their central administrative functions such as accounting and budgeting, human resources, legal services, and information technology. The focus of the audit was on low-priority programs, not on all agency spending.

• Include only those programs or subprograms funded with at least some State dollars. That excluded any programs funded solely with federal dollars or fee funds.

• Include only those programs or subprograms included in their ﬁ scal year 2009 revised budget estimates (as submitted to the Division of the Budget).

• Indicate whether any or all of the expenditures for each program or subprogram had been included in the agency’s plan for reducing costs in either ﬁ scal year 2009 or 2010. Because the Governor’s budget recommendations hadn’t been released when we requested these data, we didn’t ask agencies to indicate the dollar amount.

• Rank order the programs and subprograms they listed within the “buy next” and “buy last” categories from most important to least important.

• Provide the statutory basis for each program or subprogram.

• Ignore any statutory requirements or political considerations, to the extent possible.

A copy of the data elements we asked entities to provide and the instructions we gave them for completing our data collection document is provided in Appendix B. Agencies Varied in the Within Kansas government, some agencies provide services through Ways They Provided the multiple programs and subprograms, while others may have a very Information Requested limited number of programs, or may provide services through a single In Our Data Collection program in different locations, facilities, or projects across the State. Document For this audit, we allowed agency ofﬁ cials to break their programs down into subprograms or major programmatic components. That gave some agencies with very few programs or a single large program much greater ﬂ exibility in coming up with the 80% of their State spending that was the highest priority.

Still, this was not an easy exercise for most agencies. And because of time constraints they had a relatively short timeframe to complete the data collection document we sent them—about two weeks. Most agencies clearly put a lot of effort into trying to prioritize their programs and subprograms as we had asked.

Some of the issues we noted in reviewing the information they reported to us that the reader should be aware of:

6 PERFORMANCE AUDIT REPORT Legislative Division of Post Audit 09PA05 February 2009 Several agencies didn’t prioritize their programs or subprograms into the four “buy” categories, or didn’t allocate them into our 80% of State program funding, 10%, and 10% breakdown. [For two of those agencies—the Department of Administration and the Governor’s Ofﬁ ce—we directed ofﬁ cials to list their programs but not to prioritize them. That’s because these programs—such as the Public Broadcasting Council housed within the Department of Administration— didn’t appear to be related to the agencies’ core functions, and appeared to have been placed there for lack of another place to put them.]

Some agencies included some of their central administrative functions and costs in the data they submitted, or provided information for programs that had $0 State spending budgeted in ﬁ scal year 2009. We talked with agency ofﬁ cials about such items, and removed many of them for the sake of clarity and consistency.

For some agencies, their “programs and subprograms” translated into locations, facilities, or projects. Examples include the correctional facilities, KDOT, the Historical Society, and the Department of Wildlife and Parks. In attempting to prioritize these into the “buy next” or “buy last” categories, those agencies took a variety of approaches, ranging from not prioritizing them, to considering those projects that affected federal funding the least, to closing down facilities in certain locations.

Most agencies expressed signifi cant concerns about prioritizing their programs and subprograms in the manner called for in the audit. We spent a considerable amount of time during the audit talking with agency offi cials and getting their feedback about our proposed audit methodology. While many agency offi cials indicated they understood the interest in looking at program priorities—especially given the fi scal crisis the State is facing—they also expressed concerns about the diffi culties they faced in trying to prioritize their programs and subprograms. In letters they submitted to us, many agency offi cials indicated that asking them to prioritize their programs and subprograms the way we did was not the way they prepared their budgets or considered their priorities. Some of the concerns they expressed can be summarized as follows:

Many agencies said they considered the programs they listed in the “buy next or last” categories still to be critical or essential to their core missions, but had included them there only because they were trying to fulfi ll our instructions. This was especially true for agencies that had very few programs or that had one program that consumed 80% or more of the agency’s State spending, requiring them to place all other programs in the lower categories. Offi cials indicated they had included many programs in the last two categories only because they were trying to fulfi ll our instructions that they categorize programs into the 80%, 10%, 10% format.

PERFORMANCE AUDIT REPORT 7 Legislative Division of Post Audit 09PA05 February 2009 Many agency ofﬁ cials indicated they would prefer to modify or reduce program expenditures rather than eliminate whole programs or subprograms altogether. Examples of these types of program reductions include limiting the number or type of people who were eligible to receive certain services, or holding vacant employee positions open. Many thought this more common budgetary approach allowed them to reduce their costs without reducing essential services.

Some agency ofﬁ cials cited cost-beneﬁ t issues. They said that eliminating some of the programs and subprograms they had prioritized into the “buy next or last” categories could have adverse impacts on citizens or the State, or could impact the demand for other programs, which could result in higher State costs in the future. For example, KDOT noted that reducing highway maintenance could save money over the short run, but ultimately may result in higher expenditures to reconstruct deteriorated highways.

Agency ofﬁ cials reported that, in some cases, eliminating programs and subprograms would result in the loss of federal dollars. Often, eliminating a program or subprogram would mean eliminating both the costs and the funding associated with that program. However, a few agencies pointed out that they use spending for some programs as a match for other federal funding they receive, or that they are able to use local funding as part of a “soft match” for federal matching requirements.

Some agency ofﬁ cials told us they thought it was the Legislature’s responsibility to establish program priorities.

Finally, even though many agency ofﬁ cials said they wouldn’t do things this way, some said the exercise served as a useful tool in helping them consider actions they may need to take if additional budget reductions are necessary for ﬁ scal years 2009 and 2010.

Agency Programs and The programs and subprograms that agencies prioritized into Subprograms in the the four “buy” categories—together with the revised estimated “Buy Last or Don’t Buy” expenditures associated with them for ﬁ scal year 2009, are shown in Categories Would the tables that begin on page 16. Represent About $523 Million in Estimated We’ve also summarized any comments the agencies provided in the State Spending for tables they submitted to us, and included any letters they sent us Fiscal Year 2009 with those tables.

Figure 1-1, starting on page 10, summarizes the estimated expenditure information for those four categories, by agency (SRS, the Juvenile Justice Authority, and the Department of Corrections provided information about the institutions they oversee.) As the ﬁ gure shows, agencies reported about $500 million in the “buy last” category, and nearly $23 million in the “don’t buy” category.

8 PERFORMANCE AUDIT REPORT Legislative Division of Post Audit 09PA05 February 2009 Examples of the major types of programs, subprograms, or cost areas agencies prioritized into the “buy last” category (if the last 10% of their State program funds became available) are summarized in Figure 1-2 on page 12. An important point related to this fi gure: as noted earlier, many agency offi cials told us they had placed programs in this category only to fulfi ll our instructions related to the “buy last” category. In some cases, offi cials said they thought these programs were just as important to their missions as the programs they had prioritized under the other two categories. Also, for $11.5 million of the $500 million in State program costs agencies had included in the “buy last” category, offi cials reported they had included all of these costs in their reduced-resource proposals for fi scal years 2009 or 2010 budgets (this information is shown in the detailed agency tables). In addition, for $77.4 million in State program funds, agencies indicated they had included part of those costs in their reduced- resource proposals for fi scal years 2009 or 2010 budgets. Because of time constraints, we didn’t ask agencies to report those specifi c amounts. Most of the $23 million in programs or subprograms agencies listed in the “don’t buy” category generally already are slated to be cut or reduced in fi scal years 2009 or 2010. These included the following:

The Health Policy Authority reported $17 million in State spending in this category. The Authority indicated these cuts represented payment inefﬁ ciencies in Medicaid services, and had already recommended them for elimination from its ﬁ scal year 2010 budget.

The Juvenile Justice Authority reported $3.1 million in State spending in this category. The entire amount reﬂ ects the Authority’s recent closure of the Atchison Juvenile Correctional Facility.

SRS reported $2 million in State spending in this category.

PERFORMANCE AUDIT REPORT 13 Legislative Division of Post Audit 09PA05 February 2009 Separate Analyses Because of other audit work we’ve done in the past, we were aware We Conducted Showed that the State spends a signifi cant amount of money on parts of The State Spends two programs—the Medicaid Program and the Special Education A Signifi cant Amount Program—that aren’t mandated by the federal government. We For Non-Mandated analyzed information from the Kansas Health Policy Authority and the Medicaid and Department of Education regarding these programs. Special Education Services In fi scal year 2008, about 55% of total Medicaid spending was “optional.” Medicaid is a jointly funded program in which the State generally pays a share of the medical costs for people who meet certain federal eligibility requirements – primarily related to their income, disability, or age. Federal law requires states to provide certain medical services to Medicaid clients. Those services include inpatient and outpatient hospital care, physician visits, and lab and x-ray services.

States also have the option of paying for services that aren’t required by federal law-such as dental care, vision care, pharmacy, and home-and community-based services. Those optional services are provided both to people who are required to be covered under the Medicaid program under federal law, and to certain optional populations. Those optional populations include people states can elect to cover. In Kansas, these include people who are on MediKan, people whose incomes may be slightly above the maximum federal guidelines, elderly people who are medically needy, and the like. These clients still are likely to be very poor, disabled, or needy, but they don’t meet the basic eligibility requirements under federal law.

In ﬁ scal year 2008, Kansas spent almost $982 million in State funds for Medicaid. According to the Health Policy Authority, $315.6 million of that amount—about 32% of the total— was for optional services being provided to Medicaid clients, and $225.8 million was for mandatory services being provided to optional populations. That information is summarized in Figure 1-3.

It is important to note that when states choose to offer an optional service, they are required to provide the service to both “optional” and “mandatory” populations to receive federal funding. Thus these

Figure 1-3 Cost Comparison of Providing Mandatory and Optional Medicaid Services to Mandatory and Optional Medicaid Populations in State Dollars Fiscal Year 2008 Mandatory Optional Population Population Total Mandatory Services $440,150,658 $225,784,148 $665,934,806 Optional Services $179,386,312 $136,258,030 $315,644,342 Total $619,536,970 $362,042,178 $981,579,148 Source: Medicaid expenditure data provided by Kansas Health Policy Authority

14 PERFORMANCE AUDIT REPORT Legislative Division of Post Audit 09PA05 February 2009 optional services can’t be removed just from the optional populations without denying them to all Medicaid clients.

Under current law, the State will spend about $15.3 million on optional services for gifted students in ﬁ scal year 2010. Although the Kansas Special Education for Exceptional Children Act requires school districts to provide special education services to gifted children, the federal Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) does not. According to the Department of Education, during the 2006-07 school year, almost 15,000 students (1,046 on a full-time-equivalent basis) received gifted services. That was slightly more than 4% of the total full-time-equivalent students in special education that year. Also, Department records show that about 4% of the special education teachers and paraprofessionals are involved in providing gifted services to children.

We applied the number of teachers and paraprofessionals associated with gifted programs from the 2007-08 school year to the total funding that likely will be provided for ﬁ scal year 2010 (as estimated by the Department of Education, Legislative Research Department, and the Division of the Budget). Our computations showed that providing the optional gifted services will cost about $15.3 million, provided the special education law is fully funded.

Conclusion: With the looming fi scal crisis hanging over the State, the Legislature and agency offi cials have some extraordinarily diffi cult decisions ahead in bringing the State’s budget into balance. The information provided in this report was intended to give legislators and agency offi cials a different perspective on program spending. Agency offi cials took this exercise very seriously, and clearly went to a lot of effort to try to prioritize their programs as we had requested. At the same time, many also expressed strong concerns about having to make priority choices among programs and subprograms that they considered to be essential. Given the policy priorities that are decided, many of the programs and subprograms agencies listed in the “buy next or buy last” categories likely would never be considered for complete elimination. That should be expected. But that doesn’t diminish the value of having such information available to policy makers as one facet of the discussions about which programs and subprograms are most critical to the mission and goals of the State, whether all existing programs and subprograms still are needed, what would happen if some were eliminated, and the like. With the cooperation of offi cials representing 47 State entities, we now have a database of information about their programs and subprograms. Such information could be refi ned and revised over time to provide the basis for more systematic discussions in the future of which programs and subprograms are essential to the State and its citizens.

PERFORMANCE AUDIT REPORT 15 Legislative Division of Post Audit 09PA05 February 2009 Tables of State-Funded Programs

This section contains summary information about the State-funded programs and subprograms reported by each of the 47 government entities included in this audit. The tables provide information on which programs agencies would “buy fi rst” with the fi rst 80% of their State funding, “buy next” with an additional 10% of their State funding, and “buy last” if they had all of their State funding available. At the end of some agencies’ listings is a “don’t buy” category identifying those programs agency offi cials would not recommend funding at all in the future. Also, where applicable, we’ve included letters offi cials have provided to explain why they have categorized and ranked their programs the way they did.

Barbara J. Hinton Legislative Post Auditor 800 Southwest Jackson, Suite 1200 Topeka, KS 66612-2211

Dear Ms. Hinton:

This letter is submitted along with the SRS response to your request for information on the audit: Low Priority Programs: Determining How Much Money Could be Saved from Eliminating Non- Essential Programs in State Government.

We have responded in accordance with the instructions you gave us to list the programs we would buy with the first 80% of our funding, those programs we would buy with the next 10% of our funding, and those programs we would buy with the last 10% of our funding. I wanted to point out a number of things as you review our submission.

Foremost, in managing with a reduced budget, I would not choose to only eliminate whole programs as this exercise required. Instead, I might look to change the financial or programmatic eligibility criteria, to change the rate structure, to modify services, or other actions that would ensure continuation of services to the most vulnerable Kansans. Thus, this listing while responding to the assignment should not be assumed to reflect SRS’ priorities for where resources should be spent. The approach I took in developing the SRS budget proposal reflected certain values that are a better indicator of agency priorities and ranking of high and low priority activities. The SRS budget was developed keeping in mind the agency’s mission, vision and goals, and with the following key values in mind:

Minimize impact on the most vulnerable. SRS placed the highest priority on the services and programs that are critical to the agency’s mission of protecting children and promoting adult self-sufficiency. A primary concern was to preserve the basic social safety net of services that protects the most vulnerable Kansans. In proposing reduced resources, SRS considered the vulnerability of the populations we serve, and prioritized preserving services to those most vulnerable.

Inter-relatedness of Reductions on Populations, Provider Groups, and Other Agencies. SRS considered how policy decisions in one program or service area would impact consumers and thus other programs and services in SRS or other agencies.

Choose programs with a high percentage of state funds in making reduction decisions in

66 PERFORMANCE AUDIT REPORT Legislative Division of Post Audit 09PA05 FEBRUARY 2009 -2-

order to minimize the total impact of the reduction. SRS reviewed programs mostly funded by state funds. Our first priority was to protect the most vulnerable Kansans and we then minimized the total all funds amount of the reduction by identifying state-funded programs for reduction.

Choice Not to Reduce State Hospital Budgets. SRS elected to minimize the reductions at state hospitals to preserve the core staffing and funding needed to continue to serve the same number of people at our state hospitals.

In many cases our recommendations in the budget modified rather than eliminated programs, in order to meet these key values, especially in efforts to focus our resources on the most vulnerable Kansans. As much as possible, we tried to apply these same values to this exercise; however, your instructions that whole programs be preserved or eliminated meant that in some cases these values were not reflected in our choices.

I also wanted to point out some technical issues should these listings be considered for actual budget adjustments. The amount spent on a specific program in a given year is not a true picture of what the savings might be if a program was eliminated. For example, under the General Assistance program, the state receives reimbursement from the Social Security Administration for those individuals on General Assistance determined to qualify for federal disability. Thus, elimination of the program would also eliminate these receipts. Also, the elimination of a specific program might have an impact on demand for another program.

In summary, the response is our best effort to respond to the audit request, but it should be understood that this categorization does not reflect the actual actions I would take or recommend be taken should only 80 or 90 percent of our budget be funded. Please contact Mary Hoover at 785-296-2973 should you have questions regarding our response.

Sincerely,

Don Jordan Secretary

Dear Ms. Hinton:

The Legislative Division of Post Audit (LPA) has asked the Kansas Health Policy Authority (KHPA) to identify the agency's funding priorities by assigning each of its State General Fund "programs" to one of three specific categories: buy first, buy next, and don’t buy now. In its description of this exercise to KHPA, the LPA provided as an example a similar exercise used by the State of Washington to help support agency budget recommendations and cut-backs in that state. Given the implied context of budget reductions, and the labels that LPA selected for the prioritized categories of "programs" that agencies are asked to populate, KHPA understands the exercise to be a request to identify a prioritized list of budget reductions or cutbacks. For example, LPA's request to identify 10% of its “programs” falling in the "Don't buy now" category appears to be a request to identify programs the agency believes should not be funded. This request poses a dilemma for the agency, since we cannot identify as much as 10% of KHPA funding as unnecessary or undesirable.

Since it was established as a state agency on July 1, 2006, the KHPA has operated the state's largest health care and insurance programs, including Medicaid, the State Children's Health Insurance Program (SCHIP), MediKan, and the state employee health plan, which is funded separately through employee and employer contributions. KHPA's public health care programs – Medicaid, SCHIP and MediKan -- are designed to assure medically necessary care for populations that either the state of Kansas or the Federal government has identified as financially and/or medically needy. KHPA's programs generally support access to a full range of medical care services, with notable gaps such as adult dental care.

Health services and spending are in general concentrated among the core medical services provided by physicians, hospitals, and pharmacies, however, many more categories of providers are included in those programs we oversee, reflecting the wide range of diagnostic and treatment options available in the medical marketplace. Determination of the appropriateness and necessity of care is generally left to the recommendation of a physician, dentist or other health care professional. Limitations or guidelines are added by KHPA where necessary under the advice and direction of medical personnel that we have on staff, and that are consulted through a variety of formal and informal advisory groups.

Although KHPA oversees individual provider and service areas, such as hospitals, durable medical equipment, hospitals, home health and hospice, etc, these individual services are not seen as separable from each other, but instead are part of a comprehensive health care package that, together, comprises a single health care “program.” Indeed, state participation in the Medicaid program carries with it the provision of a minimum set of federally- mandated benefits reflecting the core medical services available under traditional health insurance models at the time the program was created in the 1960s. As medical and long-term care has evolved, so has the set of benefits offered through both public and private insurance programs, including Medicaid. Individual health care services and provider types are not viewed as "preferred," or more or less valuable than others, just as one body part or function is not viewed as more or less important than another. While the agency constantly reviews its program to identify gaps and opportunities for savings, the product itself is viewed as a whole -- health care -- rather than a collection of components.

Services provided with KHPA funding are comprised of a very few large delivery systems, including Medicaid, SCHIP, and MediKan. However, spending for just one of these programs, Medicaid, accounts for more than 80% of agency spending, which leaves us unable to address LPA’s core question by dividing spending according to this definition of program. Moreover, in most respects KHPA’s health care programs are administered together in fully integrated enrollment, claims processing, and managed care operations that ensure access to a nearly equivalent set of benefits.

Providers for our programs are also paid at the same rates in each program. Two exceptions come to mind. The smallest of KHPA’s health care programs, MediKan, represents less than 2% of State General Fund spending, includes a number of service restrictions that distinguish it as separate, mental health care for children in SCHIP, which comprises just 0.3% of KHPA State General Fund expenditures, are administered separately and consists of a different package of benefits than Medicaid recipients receive. Against those minor exceptions, Medicaid and SCHIP together comprise over 98% of KHPA’s programmatic spending, and are operated together in seamless fashion through HealthWave, KHPA’s program for managed care for families and children, and through KHPA’s internally managed fee-for-service and case management system,

In sum, the health care services provided through the KHPA comprise a unified whole and are administered in a thoroughly integrated fashion. As a result, KHPA’s response to LPA’s request does not attempt to separate individual health care services, nor our major financing programs.

Instead, KHPA makes a good faith effort to meet the LPA’s underlying objective, which is to prioritize program spending for purposes of internally recommended or externally imposed reductions in spending. In the enclosed response, the two types of potential reductions are identified separately: those the agency recommends as prudent and efficient, and those the agency would suggest in the event of necessary cuts in spending.

KHPA began more than a year ago to systematically identify inefficiency, unnecessary spending, and other opportunities for program improvement in its State General Fund programs (exempting the state employee health plan), exhaustively reviewing fourteen separate components of the Medicaid and SCHIP programs, which comprise the vast majority of KHPA's state general fund programs. This year-long exercise culminated in the publishing of the 2008 Medicaid Transformation Plan, a more than 300 page, data-rich examination of the Medicaid program. This staff-driven exercise was used as the basis for the development of KHPA's budget recommendations for FY 2009 and FY 2010, and included recommendations for savings of approximately $8.7 million in FY 2010. During the development of the budget, additional savings were also identified and both sets of savings opportunities were included in the Governor's recommendations published in January 2009. All told, these recommendations total over

$32 million and represent nearly 3% of programmatic spending in KHPA State General Fund programs. These recommendations comprise KHPA's list of programs that we recommend be unfunded. However, in every case these reductions are not comprised of separable programs, but instead consist of fixable inefficiencies within vital, ongoing health care services such as pharmacy, home health, and medical transportation.

The remaining 17% of spending reductions that would be required for this exercise are calculated as a direct proportion of KHPA’s programmatic budget. To put such a spending reduction in place without arbitrary elimination of medically necessary services, KHPA envisions an across-the-board reduction in reimbursements to health care providers. This reduction would include nearly every KHPA service, and would assume a proportionate reduction in pre-paid reimbursements to our capitated managed care health plans, which in turn would most likely pass those reductions along to providers. In the comment section of each noted reduction, KHPA estimates the percentage reduction in reimbursement rates that would be needed to accomplish the proportionate change in spending. These percentages are not equal for two key reasons. First, KHPA is not able to reduce spending on every service. Health clinics, for example, are paid on a formula that is dictated by the Federal government. In addition, due to the expected risks of exit from the Medicaid program should reimbursement fall below costs, the expected rate reduction for reimbursement to pharmacies for drug ingredient costs is proportionally lower than the expected reductions for other service providers.

We appreciate the opportunity to provide this explanation of KHPA’s response to the LPA inquiry, and look forward to a discussion of spending priorities and savings opportunities with the Legislative Post Audit Committee.

Sincerely,

Marcia Nielsen, PhD., MPH Executive Director

Mrs. Barbara J. Hinton Legislative Post Auditor Legislative Division of Post Audit 800 S. W. Jackson Street, Suite 1200 Topeka, Kansas 66612-2212

Dear Ms. Hinton:

We have made every effort to cooperate with the Legislative Post Audit Committee and your staff in completing the data collection document which identifies the programs administered by the Kansas State Department of Education that are funded entirely or in part with state funds.

The ranking was extremely difficult due to the constitutional requirements applicable to Kansas public schools and that nearly all the programs are mandated by state law or the Legislature through the appropriation process.

These programs have proven to be highly effective, which can be substantiated by state and national research, and have led to increased student achievement over the past eight years. We believe that all the identified programs are essential and that reductions will likely result in an adverse effect on student achievement.

Please feel free to contact this office if we can assist you further.

Sincerely,

Dale M. Dennis, Deputy Commissioner of Education

h:leg:LDPA—Low Priority Program Information—1-09 PERFORMANCE AUDIT REPORT 111 Legislative Division of Post Audit 09PA05 FEBRUARY 2009 airments, Agency Comments or Rationale for Ranking: Instruction has been held harmless because any reductions in staffing will result in damage to the integrity of program, while programs like administration and support services have had significant reductions. Reducing instruction would also jeopardize the agency's ability to meet mandated Instructional Education Plans (IEP) of the students served. Those are among the most severe in State, needing intensive services and immersion in "blindness skills" to prepare them to return their home districts. The program serves every blind/visually impaired student in the State. Federal funding will be reduced in proportion to any loss in State funding. Summer services include blindness skills, career education, cane travel, access to technology, daily living skills, and academic remediation. Extended day services are mandated by federal law. FY09 expenses were already incurred in Summer 2008. Many students have health issues that must be addressed during the school day. The Health Department is also required to meet State laws related school health programs. $291,725 TOTAL GRAND - FUNDS OTHER - FUNDS FEDERAL FUNDS SUBTOTAL ALL STATE Estimate as Submitted to the Division of Budget FY 2009 Estimated Program Expenditures; Revised SGF $115,610 $166,900$172,555 $5,200 $287,710 -$291,725 - $172,555 $3,114,291 $37,769 $41,629 $3,193,689 seq seq seq 72-5205 76-1102a; 76-1102a; 72-8238(e); 72-8237(e); Agency KSA 72-1205; 72-961 et seq; 72-961 et seq; Citations Statutory KSA 76-1101b; KSA 76-1101b; Provided by 20 USC §§ 1400 et 20 USC §§ 1400 et 20 USC §§ 1400 et KSA 72-961 et seq; - Size 75 students Agency KANSAS STATE SCHOOL FOR THE BLIND 122 students Est. of # 923 students Served or Pop.

112 These "Buy First" programs Agency Comments or Rationale for Ranking: Funding for this program is passed through the School to Accessible Arts, Inc. [AAI]. AAI has been the only source of arts education for Kansas students with disabilities and professional development for their teachers 28 years. If the State Department of Education cancelled its contract with AAI, the State would eliminate otherwise unavailable services to children and educators. AAI matches all State dollars with local, federal, and corporate funds. Housekeeping duties also include laundering linen in the dorm, physical education area, health center, and dietary areas.

From: Madeleine Burkindine, Superintendent of Schools

Subject: Post Audit Data Collection

Date: January 15, 2009

Attached you will find the LPA Data Collection spreadsheet, About the Kansas State School for the Blind (Attachment #1), and Accessible Arts, Inc (Attachment # 2). This additional documentation is provided to answer some of the questions that anyone reviewing these documents may have regarding the mission and the programs provided by Kansas State School for the Blind (KSSB).

Accessible Arts has also provided similar information about their organization. You will notice in the data collection spreadsheet that $150,000 of KSSB’s budget is passed directly to this organization, and they have sole responsibility for that portion of the budget.

KSSB provides services to visually impaired students throughout the state, and the students that we serve require intensive services that cannot be duplicated by an LEA.

Although our belief is that KSSB’s FY09 SGF budget was a zero based budget prior to this exercise, we were able to identify 20% in reductions. The budget prior to this process consisted of bare program essentials, the reductions that have been proposed in the data collection spreadsheet will place the agency in a position of not meeting State and Federal IDEIA regulations requiring an appropriate education plan for handicapped students.

The Division of Budget recommended that we attain an 8.6% shrinkage rate for this fiscal year. Seventy-four percent of the total full time salary budget is for instruction. Currently there are no teacher vacancies. And if there were vacancies, they would need to be filled immediately because the teachers are unique in their subject matter. We cannot increase class size if we decide not to hire a math teacher, because there is only one math teacher. If the position remains vacant, the students will miss out on math instruction. Three percent shrinkage is a rate that we believe is attainable.

A reduction that we proposed is to transfer $50,000 in contract services from SGF to the Agency fee fund. KSSB is not proposing that the contract services budget be reduced. Contract services provides many services to students such as occupational, physical, and speech therapists, as well as psychological evaluations, dental services, and low vision evaluations. While it is possible to make the budget shift this fiscal year because funds are available in the Agency fee funds, this cannot be a permanent shift. The amount of Agency fees generated each year varies dependent upon reimbursements from other school districts. And if the Outreach program is reduced, a significant portion of the fees will be eliminated.

116 PERFORMANCE AUDIT REPORT Legislative Division of Post Audit 09PA05 FEBRUARY 2009 In order to meet the guidelines established in this process, the Outreach program has been identified as a reduction; although this program is a part of our core mission. KSSB’s outreach staff is relied upon to provide services to visually impaired students across the State. Kansas does not have a university training program for teachers of visually impaired students, this limits the capacity of qualified staff within the State that can provide visually impaired services. If students are not provided the services by KSSB’s outreach staff, the students will either not receive the services required by federal and state law, or their respective school districts will be forced to send the students to KSSB.

The Visually Impaired Experience Work Success (VIEWS) program is another program that has been offered as a reduction, but is essential to reducing the unemployment of blind adults which has a 70% rate. The unique and specialized expertise of KSSB’s outreach staff is relied upon by districts to provide the transition services that are required by federal and state law.

In closing, KSSB is eager to share any additional information about our agency that you may need to complete this dauntless task. KSSB understands that all of your questions may not be answered in these brief documents, and we welcome visits to our campus, or other means of communications that will assist you.

PERFORMANCE AUDIT REPORT 117 Legislative Division of Post Audit 09PA05 FEBRUARY 2009 Attachment #1

About the Kansas State School for the Blind, Est. 1868 1100 State Ave. Kansas City, Kansas 66102 (913) 281-3308, Fax (913) 281-3104, (800) 572-5463 [email protected]

The mission of KSSB is to empower students with the knowledge, attitudes and skills to assume responsible roles in society and to lead fulfilling lives. KSSB will be the statewide leader in establishing partnerships with parents, school districts, and community resources to promote access to a high quality education for all Kansas students with visual impairments, regardless of where they attend school.

Purpose: KSSB is a special-purpose school for students with visual impairments, including those with additional disabilities such as deaf-blindness. It provides instruction from the preschool level through grade 12. Students who are not being successful in their local schools are referred to KSSB by their school districts in order to satisfy legal requirements under state and federal special education law. The role of KSSB's campus-based program is to address both the academic and disability-specific learning needs of students (Braille, cane travel skills, assistive technology, the skills of daily living, etc.) through intensive instruction by specialists in blindness in its day and evening programs. KSSB's goal is to return students to their school districts as soon as they are adequately equipped with the skills needed to access instruction and succeed at the local level.

The role of KSSB's statewide outreach program is to help build local capacities in school districts so that they can better provide a quality education to all students with visual impairments. Through assessment and instruction of students by KSSB's outreach teachers, the provision of consultative and staff development support to school district staff and parents, and through the provision of accessible textbooks, assistive technology, and specialized materials, KSSB serves virtually every student in the state who has a visual impairment.

Campus-Based Program • 120 students are enrolled on campus in regular-year and summer school programs. • KSSB has a 100% graduation rate for seniors. 85% of KSSB graduates in the last ten years are either employed or in post-secondary education or training due to the school's comprehensive career education program. By comparison, the national employment rate is only 30% for individuals of working age who are blind. • Students ranging from gifted to severely multiply disabled and deaf-blind excel in KSSB's individualized curriculum. Cooperative programs with area schools provide full access to the requirements of the Regents Curriculum. • Students residing in the dormitory receive an additional four to six hours a day of instruction related to academics and to the special skills blind individuals need in order to grow into independent adults. Students spend every weekend at home. • The KSSB campus is the center of operation for an army of volunteers who annually donate thousands of hours of skilled services such as transcribing books into Braille that are used statewide, and repairing Braille writers and tape recorders used by students across the state, saving tens of thousands of dollars that would have been paid for by school districts out of their state or local special education dollars.

118 PERFORMANCE AUDIT REPORT Legislative Division of Post Audit 09PA05 FEBRUARY 2009 Statewide Outreach Programs • 280 students are served in school districts across the state by KSSB outreach teachers. • Statewide provision of textbooks (Braille, Large Type), specialized instructional materials, accessible computer technology, consultations, and information and referral services to: -920 students with blindness and low vision -50 teachers of the visually impaired -public information and referral services on all aspects of blindness for all ages • Summer career development programs for students in communities statewide to address the 70% national unemployment rate among blind adults of working age. • Direct and consultative supports to students in the LEAs regarding literacy, AT, utilization of low vision, orientation and mobility and a variety of specialized visual impairment learning needs. • Provision of high quality professional development for teachers of the visually impaired statewide. KSSB specialists are the comprehensive source of expertise for the state in deaf-blindness, assistive technology, independent living, assessment, Braille, maximizing residual vision, travel skills, vocational training, and the medical aspects of blindness.

Collaborations with Agencies and Organizations • KSSB is a lead organization in Kansas facilitating collaboration among all blindness related organizations such as the SRS Division of Services for the Blind, the Department of Education, Recordings for the Blind, private rehabilitation agencies, disability advocacy organizations, colleges of education, school districts and local governments. • A partnership with a neighboring state to train new teachers of the visually impaired. This is tuition- free to Kansas teachers who return to their district upon completion. Kansas has no in-state training program for these teachers. • KSSB is a lead organization in developing disability accessible websites and technologies for state and local government. • KSSB's Assistive Technology Resource Center lends specialized computers to students across the state. • KSSB mentors new teachers statewide, arranges the mentoring of youth by successful blind adults. • Coordination with the Kansas Infant Toddler networks bring visual impairment expertise into regional teams working with families of Birth-3 children. • Specialty clinics for infants and toddlers regarding visual impairment and developmental delay concerns. Regional clinics offering specialized low vision evaluations, prescribed optical devices, and instruction in visual efficiency and the use of those devices. • Extended School Year (summer school) service and regular term one-week, skill-specific programs for assistive technology and other visual impairment related areas.

Facts About Providing Accessibility to Students with a Visual Impairment • A single copy of a textbook can cost up to $17,000 to transcribe into Braille. Graphic materials such as pictures and charts found in textbooks and in tests often cannot be successfully produced in a tactual format. • A Braille notetaker device (with refreshable Braille feedback) starts at about $5,000.

PERFORMANCE AUDIT REPORT 119 Legislative Division of Post Audit 09PA05 FEBRUARY 2009 Attachment #2

Accessible Arts, Inc.

MISSION Accessible Arts, Inc. (AAI) unlocks the arts for children with disabilities and advocates access to the arts.

SUMMARY Accessible Arts, Inc. (AAI) is entering its 28th year as a sole source provider of arts education for Kansas students with disabilities. AAI also provides professional development training for teachers, administrators and paraprofessionals in the education system who work with children with disabilities. If the Kansas Department of Education cancelled its contract with AAI, the state of Kansas would eliminate otherwise unavailable services to children and educators which also benefit professionals and families. AAI’s unique programs and trainings in the arts for children with disabilities are not duplicated by other agencies in Kansas—indeed, many of Kansas’ agencies call upon AAI for the training and programming they are unable to provide for children with special needs (AAI is endorsed as a statewide resource by the Kansas Arts Commission). AAI’s programming attracts funds and expertise into the state of Kansas because every dollar the state annually invests in its students through AAI is matched by other local, state, federal and corporate funders. If AAI’s contract were cancelled, those matching grant dollars would stop flowing into Kansas and leave the state with no one to give full-time attention to the artistic development and creative needs of Kansas children with disabilities.

HISTORY AAI began as the Kansas State Board of Education Arts with the Handicapped Program in 1980. AAI was incorporated as an independent not-for-profit arts and disabilities organization in Kansas in 1988. AAI received the 1998 Kansas Governor’s Arts Award for Outstanding Arts Organization, the 2005 Kansas City Missouri Mayor’s Committee for People with Disabilities Award and the 2007 President’s Committee on the Arts & Humanities ‘Coming Up Taller Award’ in recognition of our successful inclusion of children with disabilities in arts experiences. AAI’s innovative and diverse arts programming crosses cultural, geographic and economic boundaries to touch the lives of thousands of Kansas children with disabilities.

RECENT ACCOMPLISHMENTS Last year, AAI directly served 4,691 clients. AAI provided programming in Dodge City, Fowler, Great Bend, Hays, Hesston, Holton, Iola, Junction City, Kansas City, Lawrence, Leavenworth, Manhattan, Olathe, Osborne, Russell, Salina, Shawnee Mission, Topeka, and Wichita.

AAI provided outcome-based, arts programming to 1,550 children with and without disabilities.

AAI provided outcome-based training in arts and disabilities to 904 teachers, paraprofessionals, artists and volunteers.

AAI provided direct arts services to the Kansas State School for the Blind through arts classes, After School Arts Clubs, and Discovery Trails Programs resulting in 24,654 contact hours.

AAI provided educational presentations to 948 teachers and related service personnel.

AAI recruited 187 volunteers who contributed 2,350 hours during this reporting period.

The State match must equal one-third of the federal award. Without the State match, federal funds could be lost. If the program is eliminated, $3.3 million in federal funds will be lost: $2 million E-rate funds for discounted telecommunications service and a Federal Communications Commission grant to connect hospitals that has been approved but not awarded at $1.3 million a year for three years. State funding has been included as part of the agency's reductions for FY 2009 and 2010.

The agency is waiting for details from the federal The program helps to attract established scholars whose research projects can increase the State's economic and industrial development. If the program was cut, federal funds could be lost in proportion to individual professors' research. The program is ranked here because other private or university funds may be available to attract talented faculty to Kansas. The program is ranked here because there would not be an impact on students if funding for this program was eliminated. Instead, there may be private sources of funding for the program, or State institutions would not be reimbursed for the tuition costs of these individuals. The 18 faculty who participated in internships came from 10 institutions. Five postsecondary institutions received Innovative Technology Grants. The program is ranked here because it not critical to the agency's mission; instead, it is a faculty- and institution-focused program. This program is in its start-up year. Funding was awarded to Fort Hays State University after a competitive application process, but it has not been appropriated by the Legislature for 2009. The program is ranked here because it not critical to the agency's mission and because it serves a limited number of high school students.

The original newspapers will remain on file at the Kansas Historical Society. to reduce spending for FY09 or FY10. This program is successful and its cancellation would have an economic impact on small communities that use these exhibits to attract visitors their area.

Barbara J. Hinton Legislative Post Auditor 800 Southwest Jackson Street, Suite 1200 Topeka, Kansas 66612

Dear Ms. Hinton:

Thank you for the opportunity to submit a letter in reference to the data collection document and for the opportunity to participate in the process. This letter will explain how decisions were attained for the Kansas State Historical Society.

Since 2005 when I became executive director of the Kansas State Historical Society, my staff and I have been committed to the principles of efficient use of public monies and providing outstanding and consistent service to the people of Kansas. We have actively discontinued programs that were low performing, and found ways to partner with the private sector to help defray the cost of some programs. I am proud to say that last year the agency served nearly 6.5 million visitors, reflecting a continued increase in visitation.

All of the programs currently provided by the Kansas State Historical Society have been internally evaluated in the recent past and have been identified as important to the audiences served. It was therefore a difficult process to identify lower priority programs for this study. However, we recognize that these are difficult financial times and each agency must do their part to help find solutions to the problems facing state government. With that in mind, we used the following set of criteria to evaluate agency programs for this study: x Programs required by state statute or by federal law were generally given higher rankings than those that reflect professional best practices or audience needs. x Programs, services, and collections were evaluated in terms of their uniqueness. For example, collections that are one of a kind and found only in the care of the Kansas State Historical Society were generally ranked higher than collections that may be found in other institutions. Collections, services, and programs that may be duplicated at other institutions were usually ranked lower. x Programs were evaluated in regard to the number of people served and the cost to serve each visitor with higher rankings going to those programs that were the most cost effective. x Programs that had an increased potential in regard to outside funding sources or partnerships were generally ranked higher.

142 PERFORMANCE AUDIT REPORT Legislative Division of Post Audit 09PA05 FEBRUARY 2009 Barbara J. Hinton Page 2 January 30, 2009

I would like to make special note of the State Historic Sites as it has been suggested in the past the state consider selling or giving away these resources. It is our belief that these historic sites should remain in public hands, either state or local, because past legislatures took ownership of these sites to preserve them in perpetuity for the public. The plan proposed in our data collection document reflects a way to substantially reduce costs by changing operational strategies at the sites while at the same time retaining them in state ownership. The Kansas State Historical Society is committed to finding local partnerships at each state historic site to assist with their operations. However, if the legislature feels it is necessary to discontinue state ownership of some sites, then we would remain committed to negotiating with local public entities to ensure that the sites remain in the public trust.

I would also like to mention the two pass-through programs that appear in the agency’s budget—the Kansas Humanities Council and the Kansas Heritage Center. Both of these programs are worthy; however, they are ranked low in our report simply because they are not required by state statute and not part of the agency mission. I would urge anyone interested in these programs to contact the Kansas Humanities Council and the Kansas Heritage Center directly.

Once again, thank you for the opportunity to explain our overall approach to the rankings reflected in our data collection document.

Sincerely,

Jennie Chinn Executive Director

PERFORMANCE AUDIT REPORT 143 Legislative Division of Post Audit 09PA05 FEBRUARY 2009 Agency Comments or Rationale for Ranking: The program responds to thousands of inquiries from Kansas residents, legislators, legislative staff and State agencies each year. State aid to local units helps assure that all Kansas residents receive at least basic library services. It is used to purchase a wide variety of materials for the libraries. On average, State aid is almost 17% of the total revenue for Kansas public libraries. The agency had difficulty identifying programs that could be eliminated. The federal Library Services and Technology Act provides that a state library agency that receives federal funds through the Act must meet two requirements: maintenance of effort with state dollars and a dollar match. A portion of the federal dollars may be lost in FY10 if State dollars for many of the programs were reduced in FY09.

158 PERFORMANCE AUDIT REPORT 159 Legislative Division of Post Audit 09PA05 FEBRUARY 2009 Attachment 1: Background Information and Conclusions

Background:

Officials from the Kansas Department of Transportation (KDOT) and Legislative Post Audit (LPA) conducted several meetings to determine the appropriate scope and type of information to submit in regards to the Low-Priority Programs Audit. During these meetings, it was determined that the agency would submit information based on the anticipated cash disbursements from the State Highway Fund (SHF) in FY 2010 rather than the expenditures in the agency’s FY 2010 budget submission.

The budget submission reflects the agency’s expected expenditures for construction projects planned to be let in the current or budget fiscal year, agency operating expenses, and various other transportation related expenditures. It is important to clarify that in regards to construction project expenditures, the budget view accounts for the entire cost of the project in the fiscal year the project is let. Likewise, within the state accounting system (STARS), this is also the case, as an encumbrance is recorded in STARS for the entire cost of the project when the contract is let.

However, construction project encumbrances are paid out over the length of time it takes to complete the project. The agency does not pay the full amount of the contract on the let date. As contractors incur expenses related to construction projects, they bill the agency and upon verification and confirmation, the agency then reimburses the contractor. Since highway construction projects can take anywhere from one to four years (or more) to complete, the agency will reimburse contractors throughout this entire timeframe. Therefore, cash disbursements for construction projects may span several state fiscal years.

The agency utilizes a cash flow model to balance anticipated cash disbursements for all activities with anticipated revenues over a multi-fiscal year outlook. The cash flow model incorporates sophisticated cash payout formulas. These formulas are based on historical averages and take into account the type of project and the month in which projects are let to determine how much cash will be paid in each fiscal year. The goal of this model is to make certain that the SHF has the necessary resources to pay for construction projects both now and into the future.

This is the document upon which KDOT will base its calculations for determining the requested categorization of FY 2010 cash disbursements within a “Buy First”, “Buy Next”, and “Buy Last” scenario.

Cash Flow Structure

It should be noted that the cash flow model is structured to reflect receipts and expenditures of cash. It is not structured or formatted to reflect the agency’s budget structure or document. As such, the categorization of expenditures reflected in the cash flow document will not tie directly to the Governor’s Budget Report which is the basis for the LPA data collection instrument. Additionally, the cash flow model has been adjusted, for this exercise, to define the anticipated FY 2010 disbursements between state, federal, and local dollars. This breakout was derived through a manual process and is not achievable by analyzing expenditures through the state accounting system.

Within the cash flow model the agency has recorded federal disbursements as occurring directly from the SHF. However, the agency receives federal funds on a reimbursement basis. 1 160 PERFORMANCE AUDIT REPORT Legislative Division of Post Audit 09PA05 FEBRUARY 2009 Attachment 1: Background Information and Conclusions

Therefore, the agency must expend state dollars first in order to receive the federal reimbursement. For this exercise, the agency is ignoring the time delay between expending the state dollars and receiving the federal reimbursement for those expenditures.

The cash flow model also provides a breakdown for cash disbursements related to construction projects which have been or are planned to be let in FY 2009 and prior fiscal years as well as those projects the agency plans to let in FY 2010. For those projects let prior to FY 2010, the agency would be under a legal obligation to honor the payments submitted by contractors for those projects.

Low-Priority Program Selection Methodology

Per the agreement with LPA, the agency was instructed to prioritize those state dollars the agency anticipates disbursing in FY 2010 which is approximately $654.7 million. Consequently, the “Buy Next” and “Buy Last” categories would equate to roughly $130.9 million in total. This is a rather significant target that poses considerable challenges in determining which categories of expenditures would fall within these two categories.

Adding to this challenge, the agency is committed to honoring construction contracts which would have been let prior to FY 2010 and desires to safeguard those state dollars that are matched with federal and local funding. As a result, the agency has few programs available to categorize in the bottom 20 percent of FY 2010 disbursements.

Therefore, the agency has determined that the “Buy Last” category would be composed entirely of planned FY 2010 substantial maintenance (highway preservation) projects for approximately $65 million. These projects are funded with state dollars and are selected on an annual basis. This provides the agency the greatest flexibility in reducing cash disbursements in FY 2010. Since not all projects have been selected for FY 2010, this decision is reflected as a single line item within the data collection instrument.

The “Buy Next” category would include the remaining FY 2010 substantial maintenance projects. In addition, the agency would include the state funded portion of the cash disbursement from the Special City and County Highway Fund (SCCHF) within this category. These two actions combined account for approximately 18.5 percent of planned cash disbursements in FY 2010.

If it is assumed that the funds associated with the “Buy Next” and “Buy Last” categories is eliminated from the SHF, the resulting impact would essentially shut down the substantial maintenance program in FY 2010. This action will have a long term and severe impact on the quality of roads and bridges on the State Highway System. Our estimates indicate that the percentage of highway system miles rated in “good” condition would drop from 82.9 percent to 73 percent. In addition to a drastic reduction in the quality of the highway system, this reduction would have long-term fiscal consequences, requiring additional spending of approximately $29 million annually over a seven year period in order to return the system to current standards.

Lastly, reducing the SCCHF would adversely impact the funding cities and counties utilize for their road maintenance needs. However, the portion that is included in this exercise represents the amount of money that is transferred from the State General Fund (SGF) to the SCCHF ($10 2 PERFORMANCE AUDIT REPORT 161 Legislative Division of Post Audit 09PA05 FEBRUARY 2009 Attachment 1: Background Information and Conclusions

million). The bulk of the money disbursed from the SCCHF is derived from Motor Fuel Tax collections and would continue regardless of actions taken based on this submittal.

Working under the assumption that funding for the “Buy Next” and “Buy Last” categories would be eliminated, the agency did not include any other programs within these categories. Given the large dollar target ($130.9 million), if the agency were to include alternate programs the impact would be devastating to the agency. In one scenario, the agency would have to shut down a significant portion of regular maintenance activities to fulfill this exercise. This would deny the traveling public vital roadway maintenance (snow and ice removal) work which is unacceptable to fulfilling KDOT’s mission.

In an alternate scenario, the agency would have to shut down virtually every other agency activity (project design, rail/aviation/public transit grant administration, and certain federally required activities) and would still be unable to reach this target. This would again impact the traveling public in an adverse way. Under this scenario, the agency’s ability to capture federal funding would be in jeopardy. Attached to this submittal is a list of activities the agency must perform to maintain compliance with federal regulations. Non-compliance would endanger the continued receipt of federal funding by the agency.

Implications of Eliminating Funding

Eliminating the state funding the agency has committed to the “Buy Next” and “Buy Last” categories would have a devastating impact to the quality of the SHS as mentioned above. Additionally, there are concerns as to the impact a reduction of $130 million would have on the agency’s credit rating. In its July 24, 2008 Rating Update Report, Moody’s Investors Services notes as one of the significant challenges to KDOT’s credit is the “history of the State Highway Fund use by state general fund during economic slowdown”. Moody’s further notes that “additional recourse to highway fund by state for general operating purposes could lead to a downward move of the credit rating.

KDOT long-term debt ratings for highway revenue bonds are in the premium “AAA” and “AA” categories. Maintaining premium ratings has taken on new meaning and importance in consideration of the recent meltdown in the credit markets. Rating analysts are very sensitive to the stability and security of revenue streams that secure highway revenue debt. While it is difficult to predict the tolerance of rating agencies for any redirection of revenues, KDOT’s financial advisor indicates a one-time significant reduction in SHF revenues would signal deterioration in the state’s commitment to maintaining strong debt coverage. As a result, one or more of the three rating agencies would consider a downward rating revision. If the reduction is converted into a multi-year redirection of revenue from the SHF this would also result in a credit downgrade.

It should also be noted that elimination of the substantial maintenance program would have an impact on the Kansas economy. On average, more than 90 percent of substantial maintenance projects are awarded to Kansas contractors. For many of these contractors, these KDOT projects constitute over 50 percent of their annual dollar volume of work. These contractors employ Kansans whose paychecks result in significant income and sales tax revenues.

162 PERFORMANCE AUDIT REPORT Legislative Division of Post Audit 09PA05 FEBRUARY 2009 Attachment 1: Background Information and Conclusions

Current Fiscal Outlook

The cash flow model used for this exercise utilizes assumptions for revenue collections, revenue transfers, and planned expenditures which were built into the agency’s September 15, 2008, budget submission. Since that time, the Highway Consensus Revenue Estimating Group (bipartisan agency officials tasked with estimating SHF revenues) has met and lowered estimated revenue collections for motor fuels taxes, motor vehicle registration collections as well as sales and compensating use tax collections. All told, the impact from these changes amounts to a loss of approximately $50 million between FY 2009 and FY 2010.

In addition, the Governor has recommended to the Legislature several other changes to the agency’s budget which impact the SHF’s cash balances. Two loan repayments (approximately $31 million each) from the SGF to the SHF which were scheduled to take place in FY 2009 and FY 2010 were eliminated. Also, the Governor has recommended a transfer from the SHF to the SGF for the benefit of the Kansas Highway Patrol continue in FY 2010 for approximately $36 million.

Furthermore, there are continued concerns at the national level that a shortfall will occur in the federal Highway Trust Fund (HTF). The HTF is the primary source of financing federal aid construction projects across the nation (this is the source of federal dollars outlined in the cash flow model). Revenue projections indicate a shortfall will occur in Federal Fiscal Year (FFY) 2010. Lacking Congressional action for FFY 2010, revenues to the federal highway trust fund will not be sufficient to support existing levels of funding for highways and bridges. Congress corrected a similar problem in FFY 2009; however no action has yet been taken to resolve the shortfall in FFY 2010. For Kansas it is anticipated this would reduce federal reimbursements by approximately $108 million in FY 2010.

Combined, these revenue adjustments indicate the SHF would lose approximately $255 million in revenues over the next two fiscal years. In order to prevent the SHF from becoming insolvent, the agency elected to delay letting certain construction projects in FY 2009 to maintain a positive ending cash balance in FY 2010.

Conclusion

There is merit in reviewing the necessity of government programs and the value they deliver to the citizens of Kansas. However, caution should be taken before across the board cuts to agency budgets are made. While the substantial maintenance program was listed in the bottom ten percent of spending for KDOT, eliminating this program would have significant and prolonged implications to the investment Kansans have made in the State Highway System.

This reduction will have an adverse impact upon the community since the correctional facility at Toronto is one of the largest employers in Woodson County. The reduction will not have an immediate impact on public safety since there is a surplus of minimum custody beds. LPA Note: included part The women's camp was closed in January 2009, and the men's camp is scheduled to close in July 2009. This reduction could likely increase prison admissions but the program serves lower- risk offenders and historically has been underutilized by the courts. The anticipated adverse impact will be less immediate. The Department does not need the minimum custody beds camps provided. This program has helped maintain return rate of high-risk offenders at 29%. This reduction will reduce the number of high- risk offenders and their families that can be served. The normal recidivism range for high-risk offenders is 56% to 65% if the Department does not target high-risk offenders. This reduction helps the Department meet its budget reduction target without totally killing the Re-Entry program.

182 of this program in its efforts The agency reported it has These "Buy Next" programs Agency Comments or Rationale for Ranking: These funds supplement State and local programs at a relatively low cost to the State; however, programs will continue to function without this funding. Most of the buildings have been sitting vacant for four years. There is no indication they will be used by another organization, and the JJA population is not expected to reach a level that would require reopening the campus. However, if the facility were closed, a portion of funding for this program would still be required because JJA still uses some of the structures (e.g. warehouse). to reduce spending for FY 09 or FY10. Where local funding is also supplied, funding in this program can be used to supplement new programs or existing graduated sanctions and prevention programs. Eliminating this program could remove $2 million from the juvenile justice system if localities are less inclined to fund such programs without a State match.

185 e Agency Comments or Rationale for Ranking: The State has about 7,600 National Guard service members. In addition to calling on those members, the Governor can commit the large amount of federal training equipment issued to the National Guard. The State pays for the use of equipment on a cost basis. The State must maintain a realistic budget in this program to insure the Kansas National Guard can respond when needed. The Official Hospitality Fund is small but important because it provides support for meetings the Adjutant General holds that enhance the missions of the agency. CAP was placed in the Department to attain efficiencies in its operation. The Department now assists by providing support for budget, personnel and other State administrative processes. CAP's budget is already insufficient to provide all necessary services. The Department does not have the authority to co-mingle CAP funds and agency funds. $1,246 $32,125 TOTAL GRAND $0 $0 FUNDS OTHER $0 $0 FUNDS FEDERAL $1,246 $32,125 FUNDS SUBTOTAL ALL STATE Estimate as Submitted to the Division of Budget FY 2009 Estimated Program Expenditures; Revised SGF $1,246 $56,683 $56,683 $0 $0 $56,683 - Agency KSA 48-225; 48-238 et seq Citations Statutory Provided by Size Programs identified by Agency (Agency did not prioritize) Agency Est. of # Not Available Not Available KSA 48-3301 et seq $32,125 Served or KANSAS DEPARTMENT OF THE ADJUTANT GENERAL Pop.

186 Agency Comments or Rationale for Ranking: This program was originally initiated by Governor's Executive Directive 05-356 and now is in 2008 Substitute for House Bill 2923. It is a critical element of the "Military Bill of Rights." The program sets a positive example of how employers should treat their employees that are members of a military reserve component. This is a critical part of the "Military Bill of Rights." Contributions can be made by individual taxpayers to the Kansas Military Emergency Relief Fund. Both funds have been used to provide the funds for financial emergencies. Response includes mobilizing emergency equipment and power, providing food, shelter, medical aid, clearing roads, and evacuating people. The grant that funds the program requires a 50% non-federal match. The State does not fully fund the match, so local government "Soft Match" is used to complete the 50% non-federal match. The Division of Emergency Management spends more federal hard dollars than they receive in State dollars. If State funding was cut, more federal dollars would be lost than the 50% match amount. For FY08, $500,000 was provided for this program. Since 2005, funds for program have been provided each time a National Guard member has lost his or her life in a combat zone.

187 Agency Comments or Rationale for Ranking: Preparedness activities include: training, developing and testing plans and procedures, planning evacuation routes and public education. The Division of Emergency Management provides guidance, technical assistance, and coordinates response on a 24-hour basis to reduce loss of life and property. The Division has not had a funding increase for several years, despite its increased responsibility since September 11, 2001. The grant that funds the program requires a 50% non-federal match. The State does not fully fund the match, so local government "Soft Match" is used to complete the 50% non-federal match. The Division of Emergency Management spends more federal hard dollars than they receive in State dollars. If State funding was cut, more federal dollars would be lost than the 50% match amount. Examples of projects in the program include removing property from the flood plain, building school safe rooms, and using stronger power lines.

188 Agency Comments or Rationale for Ranking: This program provides 25% of costs associated with the Armed Forces Reserve Center in south Topeka. It also provides 25% of costs for five positions that provide maintenance and repair services for several buildings in Topeka and for one environmental officer. Adequate facilities and grounds are required for the Army National Guard members to train and prepare for domestic and world missions. Funding to provide adequate maintenance and repairs to the armories has not been provided, so the armories are in disrepair. The agency has received bonds from the Legislature, but requests additional funding. The increase in utility costs has eroded remaining funds. The State's portion for the programs is a 25% match to 75% federal funds. When one dollar of SGF is reduced, the program loses four dollars in funding. After the last round of Defense Base Closure and Realignment Commission [BRAC] studies, the State was lucky to keep both bases because sufficient State funding has not been provided in the past. To prepare for next round of BRAC studies, the programs were appropriated an additional $100,000 SGF to bring the facilities an acceptable level.

190 PERFORMANCE AUDIT REPORT 191 Legislative Division of Post Audit 09PA05 FEBRUARY 2009 192 PERFORMANCE AUDIT REPORT Legislative Division of Post Audit 09PA05 FEBRUARY 2009 . g Agency Comments or Rationale for Ranking: The agency indicated that $1.9 million in federal funding would be lost if this program was eliminated. The difference in federal funding represents anticipated in fiscal year 2009 for law enforcement information technology projects designed to assist a number of State agencies. Much of the $1.9 million in federal funding is used for central administrative tasks that weren't included in this audit. However, nearly $640,000 of federal funds listed under this program is currently used mostly for overtime. Kansas Highway Patrol is the only Statewide law enforcement agency that provides airborne service. Local, State and federal law enforcement agencies rely on the Kansas Highway Patrol’s air assets for a variety of law enforcement assistance. This program impacts other state agencies and many local units of government and the funding available to them. Vehicles for Motorist Assistance and Motor Carrier Inspection were purchased and budgeted within the Fleet program, but have been moved to their respective program for the purposes of this audit. Training Academy facilities are rented by many other State agencies and local units of government for seminars and trainin perty.

193 of this program in its efforts The agency reported it has Agency Comments or Rationale for Ranking: LPA Note : These "Buy First" programs represent 79.9% of the total State dollars this agency reported spending on the programs it included in this document. This program is the only way to replace vacant trooper positions. Eliminating this program would result in a hiring freeze for troopers and impact the Kansas Highway Patrol's ability to perform its primary mission.

Kansas Highway Patrol doesn't recommend this program be reduced. It was chosen to comply with the audit requirements. The elimination of this program would require extensive review of its impact on federal highway funds.

LPA Note: represent 87.8% of the total State dollars this agency reported spending on the programs it included in this document.

Barbara Hinton Legislative Post Auditor 800 SW Jackson St., Suite 1200 Topeka, KS 66612-2212

Dear Ms. Hinton:

We respectfully request that this letter accompany our data submission and be part of our official report. Legislative Post Audit structured a spreadsheet for us to use to allocate our programs. The 80 percent “Buy First,” 10 percent “Buy Next” and 10 percent “Don’t Buy Now” structure forced us to place essential programs in lesser or nonessential categories even though they are essential to fulfill our statutorily defined mission. It is imperative that we explain our reasoning for prioritizing our programs to fit the spreadsheet structure.

All the programs listed are essential to meeting our agency mission. However, since we were prohibited from placing all in the highest essential category, we developed a method for prioritizing them. We believe protecting human health and safety is our highest priority, so those programs were given the highest ranking. Ranking the next group of programs was more difficult. We had to ask if it is more important to provide consumer protection or to protect our environment and our natural resources. Compelling arguments can be made to support ranking one above the other, but we decided that consumer protection ranks higher because consumer fraud has an immediate negative impact on Kansans and, in most cases, it can negatively impact intrastate, interstate and international trade. You will note that we broke from this rationale in a few instances where we had certain other requirements to meet. The third tier is protecting our natural resources, which includes managing our state’s water resources and ensuring that chemicals are properly used and stored so they don’t contaminate our land or water. This helps prevent negative economic consequences now and in the future. Regardless of their placement, these programs are absolutely essential to fulfilling our agency mission and to ensure a continued quality of life for all Kansans. The last category contains those programs or subprograms that deal with promoting agriculture and economic development. Clearly a strong economy is closely tied to our quality of life, especially in rural Kansas.

For the record, we must explain the steps we take to reduce our budget. We start with looking for reductions that allow us to continue all of our essential functions, and that is the approach we took with current budget reductions. As you review the table, you will see this statement in the drop-down menu: “yes, part of this program has been included.” The options for describing the steps to address budget concerns were limited, and the statement “yes, part of this program has been included” is not fully descriptive. While it is true that parts of a program have

PERFORMANCE AUDIT REPORT 219 Legislative Division of Post Audit 09PA05 FEBRUARY 2009 Barbara Hinton Legislative Post Auditor January 15, 2009 Page 2 been included, the reductions may have been small, which allowed us to reduce costs without reducing essential services.

We were required to categorize programs as “Buy First,” “Buy Next” and “Don’t Buy Now,” but we strongly believe that all of them are vital to helping us fulfill our agency mission. They also are essential to protecting public health, consumers and the environment, and to supporting our economy. Eliminating one or more of them will have adverse effects on the remaining programs and will negatively impact the wellbeing of all Kansans. Sincerely,

Adrian J. Polansky Secretary of Agriculture

Re: Kansas Water Office Project Information as Requested by Legislative Post Audit

Dear Ms Hinton:

Attached please find the information on Kansas Water Office (KWO) programs and expenditures for Legislative Post Audit purposes. I note that we have completed this project per our understanding of Legislative Post Audit staff instructions.

Please note the following about our entries on the spreadsheet:

First, the programs included in the “Buy Next” and “Buy Later” categories address State Water Plan priority issues as identified by the Kansas Water Office and included in the budget recommendations of the Kansas Water Authority. We want to be clear that including programs in the “Buy Next” and “Buy Later” categories as prescribed by Legislative Post Audit staff instruction does not imply that any of the programs are not important.

Second, we have provided all information, to the extent possible, based upon the Governor’s budget recommendations, to the extent possible in completing this project. Those recommendations, of course, guide our agency’s activities when discussing the current and proposed budgets.

Finally, we submit this completed project with the following caveats: All entries are subject to revision, change, or other limitations due to the format of the request. We note that it is difficult to “rank” the projects in this type of format as many of the projects are diverse and have differing impacts on a number of water related issues or impact at differing levels to areas within the state. We note that many valid and essential KWO efforts and programs that are not statutorily required, but are part of the intensive planning process that Kansas Water Office and the Kansas Water Authority, working with other local, state and federal agencies and with input from citizens. Many projects address on-going issues that, if not dealt with, simply exacerbate problems when funds become available. A number of projects provide both short and long term benefits to a number of users that cannot be readily determined. Many projects are already under contract. In some cases, contracted work has been completed and fully paid.

Thank you for allowing us to participate in this project. Please feel free to contact me if you have questions or need further information.

Sincerely,

Tracy Streeter Director

235 236 PERFORMANCE AUDIT REPORT Legislative Division of Post Audit 09PA05 FEBRUARY 2009 APPENDIX A Scope Statement This appendix contains the scope statement approved by the Legislative Post Audit Committee on November 18, 2008. The audit was requested by the Legislative Post Audit Committee.

Low-Priority Programs: Determining How Much Money Could Be Saved From Eliminating Non-Essential Programs in State Government

Governments establish and fund programs to address perceived public needs that exist at the time. Once a program is established, it tends to be funded incrementally from year to year, often without questions being asked about the reason the program was established, whether that need still exists, and whether the program is achieving the goals established for it when it was created.

Zero-based budgeting is an approach that originated in the United States Armed Forces and the Department of Defense in the early 1960s. It was an attempt to end the traditional practice of providing automatic incremental increases to a department’s line items without providing critical scrutiny to each item. Although the concept is widely discussed, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures, most states still rely on the traditional incremental budget approach.

Since 2002, the State of Washington has used a “Priorities in Government” approach to help build its budget. The approach reviews various government activities and assigns a ranking order that allows the State to identify which activities are high priority and which programs or activities shouldn’t be funded either because they are not working or not fulﬁ lling a critical need. That process involves a number of experts and constituent groups. Legislators in Kansas are interested getting an assessment of State programs from a zero-based budget approach. They would like to know which State-funded programs are critical to protecting the health, safety, and welfare of the public, which ones are important but maybe not critical, which ones are nice to provide but could be eliminated if funding becomes too scarce, and which programs have outlived their usefulness or no longer contribute to the core mission of the agencies that operate them.

A performance audit of this topic would answer the following question.

1. Which programs in State government appear to be low-priority programs, and what cost savings could be achieved from eliminating them? To answer this question, we would identify the various programs that all, or a sample of, State agencies in Kansas fund and administer. We would ask the surveyed agencies to provide information about each of their programs such as when they were established, the statutory authority for the program, how much was spent on the program in the most recent year, who the program is designed to beneﬁ t/protect, whether the program is partially federally funded and whether federal funds are dependent on having the program. In addition, we would develop guidelines for agencies to use in assigning their programs into categories such as critical, important, nice to have, and nonessential, and ask them to assign each program to a category using our deﬁ nitions. Also, we would have the agencies provide an explanation of why they put each program into the category they did, and provide information as to what harm they think would come to the citizens of the State if the program was no longer funded. Finally, we would ask the agencies to rank their programs in order of importance to their mission. In addition, we would review the information agencies submit to the Division of Budget in their reduced- resource budgets to supplement information we gather from the survey. We would analyze all of the above information and come up with a list of programs that should be considered for possible elimination, and the costs associated with those programs.

Estimated time to complete: 15-20 weeks

PERFORMANCE AUDIT REPORT 239 Legislative Division of Post Audit 09PA05 February 2009 LPA Note: The original instructions sent to agencies used the term “Don’t Buy Now.” For reporting purposes, the term “Don’t Buy Now” was changed to “Buy Last.”

Instruction Sheet for the LPA Data Collection Instrument

Purpose of the form: This form is designed to allow agency officials to categorize the various State- funded programs they fund or administer from most important to least important relative to the other programs they operate.

Definition of a Program: Because agencies aggregate their programs in different ways in their budget and accounting systems, we are leaving the determination of what constitutes a program up to agency officials. In a broad sense, a program could be thought of as a distinct activity that provides services for a targeted purpose or to benefit a targeted group, with identifiable costs which are funded through one or more readily identifiable and discrete State funding streams. Programs also can be thought of as initiatives, assistance, activities, aid to others, or as facilities or sites an agency operates. You can list programs, subprograms, or distinct program components which could be considered separate activities within a program or subprogram. The key is being able to break out the expenditures related to the program, sub-program, or component you list. (Note: You will find it easier to categorize and rank your programs, as called for later in the form, if you break programs into subprograms or components – particularly if you have very few programs.)

Programs to include: For the purpose of this audit we want to include all programs for which the funding originates entirely or in part from one of the following funds:

x State General Fund x Economic Development Initiatives Fund x Children’s Initiatives Fund x State Water Plan Fund x State Highway Fund

Include any program that receives funding from any of these State funding sources above – no matter how small.

Programs NOT to include: Do not include the following in your inventory of programs:

x Programs funded 100% through federal funds, fees, local funds or any other source x Programs that are related to your agency’s central administration (such as accounting, human resources, or information technology) x Programs related to your agency’s debt service or capital improvements

SECTION I: Information about the Program (Columns A - K) (blue)

Column A – “Program” – This column should be used to indicate the main umbrella program (as shown in the FY2009 Governor’s Budget Report) that the other programs or subprograms you list on this form would fall under. For example, SRS has a program in the Governor’s Budget Report called “Integrated Service Delivery.” This budgetary program includes a number of programs we would expect to be listed on the form, such as Foster Care, Food Stamps, Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), and the like. Be sure all programs you list anywhere on the attached form tie into one of your main program categories in the Governor’s Budget Report.

240 PERFORMANCE AUDIT REPORT Legislative Division of Post Audit 09PA05 February 2009 Columns B & C – These columns are provided to allow agencies to break down their programs into subprograms or program components or activities as needed. Carrying through with the Integrated Service Delivery example for SRS as mentioned above, column B allows individual components of Integrated Service Delivery such as food stamps, foster care, mental health services, and other assistance to be listed. Column C allows any of those items to be broken down further. For example, if “other assistance” included distinct program items such as “grandparents as caregivers” and “funeral assistance,” those breakouts could appear in column C, as shown in the example below.

Program Sub-program Further Program Breakdown Integrated Service Delivery Foster Care n/a Integrated Service Delivery Food Stamps n/a Integrated Service Delivery Temporary Assistance (TANF) n/a Integrated Service Delivery Other Assistance Grandparents as Caregivers Integrated Service Delivery Other Assistance Funeral Assistance

Column D – Primary Purpose of Program – Provide a brief (one sentence) description of what the program does.

Columns E – Year Established – If this information isn’t known, simply indicate “unknown.” Don’t leave the column blank.

Column F – Program Classification – Choose one of the 11 classifications we provided in the form of a drop-down menu. Please only use the “other” category if you truly can’t fit the program into one of the 10 other choices.

Column G – Method of Administration – Select the option from the drop-down menu that most closely describes how the program is administered.

Column H – Statutory Requirements – Select “yes” or “no” from the drop-down menu. If overall statutory authority for your agency would allow providing the program, but the program itself isn’t specifically established by statute, please select “no.”

Column J – Who the Program Serves – From the 13 choices provided in the drop-down menu, please select the one that best describes the target population the program serves. Please only use the “other” category if you absolutely can’t fit the program into one of the 13 other choices.

Column K – Number Served – If your programs don’t serve people, you can include other measures such as projects funded, miles paved, etc. If this type of information isn’t readily available for some programs, don’t gather it. Simply indicate “not available.”

SECTION II: Expenditure information (Columns L - AD) (green)

Columns L through T – For these columns, use actual FY 2008 expenditures. Don’t leave these sections blank. Column S is for other non-State funds that may be supporting a program or sub-program such as private donations, local support, or fees. Column Q will automatically subtotal the State funding for each program or sub-program. Column T will automatically sum the total expenditures for each program.

Columns U through AC – For these columns, enter the revised estimate for FY 2009 expenditures as submitted to the Division of Budget for each of the programs or sub-programs you listed. Don’t leave

PERFORMANCE AUDIT REPORT 241 Legislative Division of Post Audit 09PA05 February 2009 these sections blank. As mentioned above, the subtotal column and program total column will sum automatically.

Column AD – Indicate in this column if this program has already been reduced or eliminated as part of your reduced resource budget or other reductions that have been made to date.

SECTION III: Federal funding information (Columns AE - AF) (peach)

Column AE – Please use the drop-down menu to indicate whether this program would lose federal funding if State funding were discontinued.

Column AF – For programs that are matched with federal funds, please estimate how much federal money would be lost.

SECTION IV: Categorization of programs (Columns AG – AK) (yellow)

This section of the form is to help determine how your programs would rank in relation to the importance to your mission or to the health, safety, and welfare of the citizens of the State. We are asking you to allocate approximately 80% of your State dollars to the highest priority programs, 10% to those programs you would “buy next” if money were available, and 10% to those you would recommend not buying now as shown in the following graphic.

“Buy First” Programs 80% of State $ Available

“Buy Next” Programs 10% of State $ Available “Buy Last” Programs 10% of State $ Available

Once you have listed all your programs, subprograms, or program components in the spreadsheet, begin the ranking process by doing the following:

x Step 1: Go to column Z “subtotal State funding” for FY 2009 and sum that column to figure out the total amount of State dollars that are used to fund all of the programs, subprograms, or program components you have listed.

x Step 2: Multiply the total computed in Step 1 by 80% (0.08) to determine how much money you have available to allocate to programs in your agency that you consider to be the highest priority - “Buy First.”

x Step 3: Multiply the total determined in Step 1 by 10% (0.1) to determine the amounts that can be spent on programs that can go into each of the next two categories (“Buy Next” and “Buy Last”).

x Step 4: Go to column AG of the spreadsheet and begin labeling the programs, subprograms, or program components listed on the spreadsheet at “Buy First” until you have exhausted the amount of money available for that category as determined in Step 2. Note: Try to get as close to the 80% target as you can. For example, if the programs total 79% or 81%, that is okay.

242 PERFORMANCE AUDIT REPORT Legislative Division of Post Audit 09PA05 February 2009 x Step 5: Go to column AG of the spreadsheet and begin labeling programs “Buy Next” until you have exhausted the amount of available funding for that category as determined in Step 3. x Step 6: Go to column AG of the spreadsheet and list any remaining programs as “Buy Last.”

Note: A couple of things to keep in mind when categorizing the programs: 1.) Don’t assume a program needs to be ranked in the highest category just because the program is statutorily mandated. Laws can be changed. 2.) To the extent possible, try to ignore political considerations when categorizing your programs.

x Step 7: Sort the spreadsheet on column AG so that all the items labeled “Buy First” are grouped together at the top, all the items labeled “Buy Next” are grouped together next, and all items labeled “Buy Last” are grouped together at the bottom. CRITICAL NOTE: Be sure to highlight all the data in the document before sorting.

x Step 8: Go to column AJ, and for the items in the last two groups, (Buy Next and Buy Last) rank them in order of importance, starting with #1 as the most important, #2 as the second most important, etc.

Column AI – For programs you identify as “Buy Next” or “Buy Last,” please provide a brief rationale. For example, this program provides supplemental services that aren’t required, but could be nice to have in times when moneys are available.

Column AJ – For programs you identify as “Buy Last,” using the drop-down menu please indicate whether you would buy the program if funding was available or whether you would not recommend buying the program even if funding was available. (Please choose option “n/a” for programs you categorized as “Buy First” or “Buy Next”).

Column AK – Please feel free to provide any additional comments about the program that may help us understand its importance, your rating or anything else we need to know about it.

Please do not alter the form to add or remove columns. It is important that the format remain the same to aid in analyzing the results. If you want to provide information in addition to what is called for in the form, please attach it separately.

Thank you in advance for your time and energy in helping us provide legislators with important information about your agency’s programs and activities. Please don’t hesitate to contact the audit staff with any questions, concerns, or clarifications. Below is a list of contacts for the audit team:
