Matching can be in the form of cash or in-kind contributions. Regulations: The specific requirements for matching funds are unique to each federal or state program. The A-102 Common Rule provides criteria for acceptable costs and contributions in regard to match. Jefferson County Policy: In 2005,the Washington State Legislature created an option for counties to raise the local sales tax by 0.1 percent, (the 1/loth of 1% sales tax initiative)to augment state funding for behavioral health treatment. Jefferson County collects and distributes the 1/10th of 1%Behavioral Health Sales Tax fund. Services purchased by the County are allocated through a formal Request for Proposal (RFP)process, review and contracting; staffed by Jefferson County Public Health, overseen by Jefferson County Behavioral Health Advisory Committee and adopted by the Board of County Commissioners, (BOCC). BOCC does not assume any fiscal responsibility/liability for any of the Contractors they contract for services with. Jefferson County reserves the first right to use as match the 1/10th of 1% Behavioral Health Sales Tax funds and the services funded by them for purposes of qualifying for additional funding and grants. County may make available to the Contractor the 1/101h of 1%Behavioral Health Sales Tax funds for the Contractor to propose as match to state, federal or other entities, at the County's sole discretion. Contractor shall not use the 1/loth of 1% Behavioral Health Sales Tax funds for match without prior authorization by the Jefferson County Administrator and County fiscal team. To request authorization of availability of the funds for match, Contractor must apply to the County Administrator in writing, and include their match formula and allocation plan and may include other documentation to support their request. The County Administrator will authorize or deny the availability of match funds in writing within 30 days of the application. If the County informs the Contractor of the availability of the 1/100,of 1% Behavioral Health Sales Tax funds for match,then the Contractor shall be solely responsible for compliance with all state and federal laws and regulations, including, but not limited to DSHS, CMS and BIRR funding rules, applicable to the use of 1/1 Oth of 1% Behavioral Health Sales Tax funds as match. Following state, federal and local guidelines for match is the responsibility of the Contractor. For example, if a Contractor provides Title XIX Medicaid services (the Policy 19.50.02 or 42CFR 430.30)they are required by those rules to actually bill Medicaid for the services at the same time. If no Medicaid billing exists,the match would not comply with state and federal guidelines for match. Professional Services Agreement GATEWAY TO FREEDOM/Inmate SUD Services-2025/2026 Page 19 of20 Concurrent with its request for authorization of the availability of match, Contractor shall document it has met its responsibility to follow state, federal and local guidelines for match by submitting in writing to the County Administrator their match formula, allocation plan, and other documentation made mandatory pursuant to this Agreement and this Attachment A. At a minimum,the Contractor shall also provide the following to the County Administrator: 1. DSHS requires contractors to complete and submit a"Local Match Certification" form(DSHS 06-155) or a form that has equivalent data elements prior to any agreement for DSHS services. Submit a copy of this application and form when requesting match availability from the County and at each monthly billing. 2. Submit the current administrative policy within WA State regulating your services and the use of local match. 3. Submit to the County your last financial audit showing your use of match, County funds and tracking systems. 4. Submit to the County the terms of the agreement showing the MH/SA allocation is an allowable source of match. 5. Provide documentation that your financial reporting system tracks matching funds at a level that meets the level of documentation required by federal or state statutes. The County may reject permission for Contractor to utilize the 1/loth of 1% Behavioral Health Sales Tax funding as match.
