Programs <br /> should be flexible and recognize the state's changing demo- <br /> graphics. <br /> • Health and human services programs should encourage re- <br /> sponsible behavior and should be targeted to those citizens <br /> least able to care for themselves. They should encourage <br /> families to be responsible supporters of their children and <br /> help individuals find sustainable, long-term employment. <br /> • The state should take the lead in financing, implementing, <br /> maintaining, and supporting statewide automated systems; <br /> automation efforts undertaken by the state should connect <br /> and integrate with county automation initiatives. <br /> • Members of county human service agency boards should be <br /> appointed by the boards of county commissioners. <br /> Goals <br /> HH-1: Support continued state funding of Medicaid and sup- <br /> port efforts by the state to provide healthcare access for all <br /> citizens. <br /> • The state historically required counties to fund a portion of <br /> all Medicaid service costs and required counties to fund all <br /> Medicaid administrative costs not reimbursed by the federal <br /> government. County Medicaid costs were outpacing proper- <br /> ty tax base growth, and most counties were spending more <br /> on Medicaid than for school capital needs. <br /> HIMMUM MOMMIUMMUMMUM lir' is or aglissollsollassalsou <br /> ono ounnommumummouturnouron„„„„„„„„10 <br /> 11,,, iv 111111„ II mill <br /> 111111141111000immommoommoN lohilmoor Aologootiorkop NI*comootsil nor$111111,11111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111 <br />
