This amendment eliminates $9.4 million the first year and $10.4 million the second year from the general fund and 60 positions provided in the introduced budget to support the expansion of 56 beds at Catawba Hospital. The Department of Behavioral Health and Developmental Services made the decision to add 56 beds to the hospital during fiscal year 2020 to deal with census issues without consulting the General Assembly or proposing to add the beds through the normal budget process. This amendment does provide up to $5.0 million in special fund appropriation for costs related to transitioning patients from those beds.
