In-Home Supportive Services program: provider wages.

Existing law provides for the county-administered In-Home Supportive Services (IHSS) program, under which qualified aged, blind, and disabled persons are provided with supportive services in order to permit them to remain in their own homes. Existing law requires a county to use county-only funds to fund both the county share and the state share, except as specified, when any increase in provider wages or benefits is locally negotiated, mediated, or imposed by a county, public authority, or nonprofit consortium, or any increase in provider wages or benefits is adopted by ordinance. This bill would make a technical, nonsubstantive change to that provision.
