He said that the first will serve youth and adults, the latter only adults. He said staff <br /> are looking at operating cost needs and the current estimate is a subsidy of $4 million annually. <br /> He said they will dig into those numbers more. <br /> Commissioner Hamilton said she is currently serving on the Alliance Health Board and <br /> asked about their input on the project. <br /> Travis Myren said they have been at the planning meetings and they plan to ask them <br /> about a financial contribution. He said Alliance will establish the reimbursement rate for these <br /> services. He said that a higher reimbursement rate helps the subsidy go down. <br /> Commissioner Fowler said $1.8 million was set aside for the county to spend when the <br /> county switched to Alliance from Cardinal. <br /> Travis Myren said that money may be able to be used. <br /> Commissioner Hamilton asked if this is one-time money. <br /> Commissioner Fowler said yes. <br /> Commissioner Portie-Ascott asked what the relationship will be with RHA. <br /> Travis Myren said the county has not chosen an operator yet and RHA is serving as <br /> subject matter expert during planning. He said the concept would be for the county to own the <br /> facility and an operator to run the facility. <br /> Commissioner Hamilton asked if the $4 million Travis Myren mentioned would be for <br /> operating the facility. <br /> Travis Myren said yes. <br />
