On Monday, the Alaska House Finance Subcommittee of Health and Social Services heard the budget overview for the Alaska Department of Health and Social Services (DHSS). This included the Fiscal Year (FY) 2021 Management Plan and the FY2022 Governor’s Request.
For the FY2021 Management Plan, DHSS has been allocated $3.45 billion, which does not include the COVID-related funding expected for 2021. The department expects to receive just over $103 million from the General Fund and the federal government for COVID-related expenditures. This makes the total budget for FY2021 just over $3.5 billion.
