Introduced Text

Kansas HB2397 increases state financial assistance to local health departments based on population proportions.

Kansas HB2397 amends state law to increase financial assistance to local health departments, ensuring they receive at least $12,000. If a department's population proportion results in an amount less than $12,000, they receive the minimum. Funds are allocated based on the population served by each department relative to the total population of all applying departments. The bill also limits assistance to not exceed local tax revenues for the fiscal year. This act aims to ensure adequate public health services across Kansas.
