The funding for Community Hospitalization is transferred from the Community Mental Health Services Program under Base Adjustments. This allows all of the funding required for persons requiring hospitalization be in a single budgeted division titled Psychiatric Hospitalization.

The Endowment Fund fix is accomplished by increasing the endowment distribution for those agencies with sufficient fund balances, and redistributing the General Funds from those agencies to the other agencies with an endowment distribution shortfall. This distribution affected State Hospital North and State Hospital South. The actual General Fund increase to State Hospital North was 25.5%, the actual General Fund decrease to State Hospital South was (32.4%), and for Community Hospitalization there was a slight increase of 0.2% due to medical inflation.
