Issue review : projected impact of elimination of the Federal Family Education Loan Program.

The federal Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 ended the Federal Family Education Loan Program, or FFELP, and no new FFELP loans will be issued after June 30, 2010. The Iowa College Student Aid Commission received approximately 14 million dollars of its 14.7 million dollar fiscal year 2010 administrative budget from the various fees associated with the FFELP program and services. With the cessation of FFELP loans, the commission project's revenues will decline, as the currently existing FFELP loans are paid off, beginning with a 2.7 million dollar decline in fiscal year 2011. This issue review examines the prison system fiscal year 2010 budget, including receipts and expenditures, average annual costs, personnel and inmate assaults.

Iowa Department of Public Health Affordable Care Act Impact Study, October 27, 2014

The mission of the Iowa Department of Public Health (IDPH) is “Promoting and Protecting the Health of Iowans.” In addition to its larger role in population health preparedness, surveillance, and response, IDPH has historically funded a broad array of health-related services to a “covered population” of approximately 1,000,000 Iowa residents through a varied network of local community-based “safety-net” provider contractors. Those health-related services range from funding direct healthcare services like immunizations and vision screening to providing or funding facilitative services like transportation and care coordination. While all Iowans may be eligible for some IDPH-funded direct healthcare service, such as smoking cessation, the individuals most often eligible for these services have traditionally been the uninsured and under-insured. As uninsured Iowans become enrolled in health plan options available through the Iowa Health and Wellness Plan (IHAWP) and the Marketplace, IDPH anticipates that many direct healthcare services funded by IDPH will become covered benefits or services under new plans, changing the demand for IDPH-funded services.
