(a) In order to provide effective purchased services to the needy citizens of Arkansas, the Secretary of the Department of Human Services is authorized to pay one-twelfth (1/12) of the total amount of a Title XX contract to the service provider on the effective date of the contract. The amount of the advance payment shall be adjusted out of the reimbursement actually earned by the provider during the contract period.

If the advance is necessary, the secretary shall forward his or her request and the reasons therefor to the Chief Fiscal Officer of the State for approval. (c)(1) If the request is approved, the Chief Fiscal Officer of the State shall loan the necessary amount to the appropriate fund accounts within the Department of Human Services from the Budget Stabilization Trust Fund. (2) However, the balance of any loans made under subdivision (c)(1) of this section during the course of a fiscal year shall be recovered by the department and repaid to the fund by June 30 of that fiscal year.
