Subject to the availability of funding, the commissioner shall designate in each year's appropriations bill an amount of money that can be used to increase access to home and community-based services in the state-funded options program for persons who do not qualify for medicaid long-term care services. This funding may be used to provide services such as home-delivered meals, homemaker services and personal care, and to reduce the waiting list for these services under the options program, or to offer transportation services or assistance to non-medicaid-eligible individuals. Acts 2008 , ch. 1190, § 17.
