I. For persons with approved budgets older than 24 months who require additional funds to carry out the services required in their individual service agreement, due to additional expenditures, such as cost-of-living or other wage and compensation increases, area agencies and authorized agencies may seek additional funds from the department for such funding needs. The department shall allocate existing budget appropriations as set forth in RSA 171-A:8-b as required to meet such funding needs, provided the requested expenditures would promote efficiency, economy, and quality of care pursuant to section 1902(a)(30)(A) of the Social Security Act.
