173-35-04 Allocation.

ODA shall allocate new authorizations (i.e., “vacant slots”) in the RSS program to the PAAs based on the funds available to ODA in accordance with the following:

(A) Until the maximum number of residents is enrolled in the RSS program, ODA shall authorize the total number of possible residents for each of the PAAs as follows:

(1) The total number of residents currently enrolled in the RSS program is subtracted from the maximum number of residents. The resultant figure is the total new statewide authorizations.

(2) The total population within the geographic region administered by a given PAA for each of the five factors in table I is divided by the state population for that same factor. The resultant figures are the five population factor percentages.

(3) The five population factor percentages from paragraph (A)(1) of this rule are then multiplied by the corresponding weighted percentage in table I. The resultant figures are the five weighted population factor percentages.

(4) The five weighted population factor percentages from paragraph (A)(2) of this rule are then multiplied by the total new statewide authorizations.

(5) The sum of the five figures that result from the calculation in paragraph (A)(4) of this rule is the total new authorizations for a PAA.

Table I

PROGRAM FACTOR WEIGHTED PERCENTAGE

age 60+ 50%

age 60+, rural/non-metropolitan 10%

minority, below poverty line 20%

non-minority, below poverty line 15%

other minority 5%

(B) If a PAA does not have sufficient individuals in the geographic area it serves to fill its new authorizations, ODA may reallocate the new authorizations to other PAAs.
