The proposed legislation, known as the Enterprise Case Management Act, mandates the implementation of a child welfare case management subsystem within the Department of Human Services' enterprise case management system. This act defines the enterprise case management system as a comprehensive method designed to enhance case management across various programs supervised by the department, including home and community-based services, hearings and appeals, and enrollment services for the Office of Long-Term Living.
A key provision of the bill stipulates that the Department of Human Services must complete the implementation of the child welfare case management subsystem by December 31, 2027, regardless of any other legal provisions or proposed timelines that may exist. The act is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
