The Arizona health care cost containment system administration shall report to the joint legislative budget committee on or before March 1, 2023 on preliminary actuarial estimates of the capitation rate changes for the following fiscal year along with the reasons for the estimated changes. For any actuarial estimates that include a range, the total range from minimum to maximum may not be more than two percent. Before implementing any changes in capitation rates, the administration shall report its expenditure plan for review by the joint legislative budget committee. Before the administration implements any change in policy affecting the amount, sufficiency, duration and scope of health care services and who may provide services, the administration shall prepare a fiscal impact analysis on the potential effects of this change on the following year's capitation rates. If the fiscal impact analysis demonstrates that this change will result in additional state costs of $1,000,000 or more for any fiscal year, the administration shall submit the policy change for review by the joint legislative budget committee.

Sarn lawsuit settlement.  The report shall include, at a minimum, the administration's progress toward meeting all criteria specified in the 2014 joint stipulation, including the development and estimated cost of additional behavioral health service capacity in Maricopa county for supported housing services for 1,200 class members, supported employment services for 750 class members, eight assertive community treatment teams and consumer operated services for 1,500 class members.

The appropriated amount for the supported housing line item includes $60,000,000 of federal medicaid expenditure authority.
