Starr County Request for Comments Rural County Waiver for Medicaid Beds Department of Aging and Disability Services (DADS) rule 40 TAC sect192322(h)(7) permits the County Commissioners Court of a rural county with a population of less than 100000 and no more than two Medicaid-certified nursing facilities to request that DADS contract for additional Medicaid nursing facility beds in that county This may be done without regard to the occupancy rate of available beds in the county

The Starr County Commissioners Court is considering requesting that DADS contract for additional Medicaid nursing facility beds in Starr County The Commissioners Court is soliciting public input and com-ments on whether the request should be made to DADS and to consider proposals from qualified persons or entities interested in proving addi-tional Medicaid nursing home services in Starr County

To clarify the Starr County Commissioners Court previously recom-mended to DADS that DADS approve a rural county waiver for 120 Medicaid beds which DADS granted on May 22 2014 to the appli-cant Starr County RP Ltd

Since that time the underlying owner of the rural county waiver has sold virtually all of its assets to a new company Starr County SNF Project LLC who wishes to resume and complete the development of the rural county waiver for the benefit of the residents of Starr County DADS regulations do not allow the assignment or transfer of a waiver to a new party so a new waiver must be issued for the new party

Therefore the Starr County Commissioners Court is requesting that DADS approve a new rural county waiver for the applicant Starr County SNF Project LLC at which time the rural county waiver that was originally granted to Starr County RP Ltd can be withdrawn The Commissioners Court is soliciting public input and comments on this request for a new waiver and places particular emphasis on the fact that a determination of need has already been made and documented in the original rural county waiver matter and thus the determination of need still remains unmet until such time as the rural county waiver is brought to fruition in the form of a completed skilled nursing home It is in that spirit that the Starr County Commissioners Court is requesting that DADS approve a rural county waiver for the new party Starr County SNF Project LLC at which time the original rural county waiver will be withdrawn

If you wish to make comments in this regard to the Commissioners Court these comments must be submitted in writing on or before thirty (30) days from the date this notice is published in the Texas Register to the Starr County Judgersquos office at 100 N FM 3167 Rio Grande City Texas 78582

RFP 730-17049 Study of Finance Departments and Services

Purpose

The University of Houston (UH) Campus Services Department is seek-ing competitive responses to a Request for Proposal (RFP) for a Con-sultant to provide an independent analysis of the following departments and programs Financial Reporting and Compliance Travel Procure-ment Student Accounting State Appropriation Accounting Budget Office Student Financial Services Treasurerrsquos Offices Tax Account-ing Accounts Payable Plant Accounting the Historically Underuti-lized Business Office Research Accounting Property Management Business Services and General Accounting

Eligible Applicants

Services to be performed

bull Identifying gaps and deficiencies in current process and policy

bull Recommending process and policy revisions to model best practices

bull Assisting the university in developing procedure and desk manuals

bull Assisting the university in addressing recommendations and deficien-cies discovered during this review

Finding by Chief Executive Officer Renu Khator

After reviewing the current status and discussing this matter with the staff the evaluation of these services can only be conducted by a firm considered expert in university finance departments and processes The university believes that using a third-party consultant who has con-ducted similar evaluations of finance departments and programs on na-tional campuses similar in context and size to the University will pro-vide the institution with best practices that can be used to improve the service to our customers Similarly in this era of financial account-ability it is important for the University to understand if this service is providing best value to its customers and constituents The expertise needed for this evaluation is complex and requires a comprehensive knowledge of national industry trends related to university finance de-partments and programs Currently the staff does not have the breadth of experience needed for this evaluation Thus it is necessary for the University to engage a consultant to advise on university safety ser-vices and make recommendations as appropriate for the improvement of these services

Starr County Request for Comments Rural County Waiver for Medicaid Beds Department of Aging and Disability Services (DADS) rule 40 TAC sect192322(h)(7) permits the County Commissioners Court of a rural county with a population of less than 100000 and no more than two Medicaid-certified nursing facilities to request that DADS contract for additional Medicaid nursing facility beds in that county This may be done without regard to the occupancy rate of available beds in the county

The Starr County Commissioners Court is considering requesting that DADS contract for additional Medicaid nursing facility beds in Starr County The Commissioners Court is soliciting public input and com-ments on whether the request should be made to DADS and to consider proposals from qualified persons or entities interested in proving addi-tional Medicaid nursing home services in Starr County

To clarify the Starr County Commissioners Court previously recom-mended to DADS that DADS approve a rural county waiver for 120 Medicaid beds which DADS granted on May 22 2014 to the appli-cant Starr County RP Ltd

Since that time the underlying owner of the rural county waiver has sold virtually all of its assets to a new company Starr County SNF Project LLC who wishes to resume and complete the development of the rural county waiver for the benefit of the residents of Starr County DADS regulations do not allow the assignment or transfer of a waiver to a new party so a new waiver must be issued for the new party

Therefore the Starr County Commissioners Court is requesting that DADS approve a new rural county waiver for the applicant Starr County SNF Project LLC at which time the rural county waiver that was originally granted to Starr County RP Ltd can be withdrawn The Commissioners Court is soliciting public input and comments on this request for a new waiver and places particular emphasis on the fact that a determination of need has already been made and documented in the original rural county waiver matter and thus the determination of need still remains unmet until such time as the rural county waiver is brought to fruition in the form of a completed skilled nursing home It is in that spirit that the Starr County Commissioners Court is requesting that DADS approve a rural county waiver for the new party Starr County SNF Project LLC at which time the original rural county waiver will be withdrawn

If you wish to make comments in this regard to the Commissioners Court these comments must be submitted in writing on or before thirty (30) days from the date this notice is published in the Texas Register to the Starr County Judgersquos office at 100 N FM 3167 Rio Grande City Texas 78582

bull Assisting the university in developing procedure and desk manuals

bull Assisting the university in addressing recommendations and deficien-cies discovered during this review

Finding by Chief Executive Officer Renu Khator

After reviewing the current status and discussing this matter with the staff the evaluation of these services can only be conducted by a firm considered expert in university finance departments and processes The university believes that using a third-party consultant who has con-ducted similar evaluations of finance departments and programs on na-tional campuses similar in context and size to the University will pro-vide the institution with best practices that can be used to improve the service to our customers Similarly in this era of financial account-ability it is important for the University to understand if this service is providing best value to its customers and constituents The expertise needed for this evaluation is complex and requires a comprehensive knowledge of national industry trends related to university finance de-partments and programs Currently the staff does not have the breadth of experience needed for this evaluation Thus it is necessary for the University to engage a consultant to advise on university safety ser-vices and make recommendations as appropriate for the improvement of these services

Starr County Request for Comments Rural County Waiver for Medicaid Beds Department of Aging and Disability Services (DADS) rule 40 TAC sect192322(h)(7) permits the County Commissioners Court of a rural county with a population of less than 100000 and no more than two Medicaid-certified nursing facilities to request that DADS contract for additional Medicaid nursing facility beds in that county This may be done without regard to the occupancy rate of available beds in the county

The Starr County Commissioners Court is considering requesting that DADS contract for additional Medicaid nursing facility beds in Starr County The Commissioners Court is soliciting public input and com-ments on whether the request should be made to DADS and to consider proposals from qualified persons or entities interested in proving addi-tional Medicaid nursing home services in Starr County

To clarify the Starr County Commissioners Court previously recom-mended to DADS that DADS approve a rural county waiver for 120 Medicaid beds which DADS granted on May 22 2014 to the appli-cant Starr County RP Ltd

Since that time the underlying owner of the rural county waiver has sold virtually all of its assets to a new company Starr County SNF Project LLC who wishes to resume and complete the development of the rural county waiver for the benefit of the residents of Starr County DADS regulations do not allow the assignment or transfer of a waiver to a new party so a new waiver must be issued for the new party

Therefore the Starr County Commissioners Court is requesting that DADS approve a new rural county waiver for the applicant Starr County SNF Project LLC at which time the rural county waiver that was originally granted to Starr County RP Ltd can be withdrawn The Commissioners Court is soliciting public input and comments on this request for a new waiver and places particular emphasis on the fact that a determination of need has already been made and documented in the original rural county waiver matter and thus the determination of need still remains unmet until such time as the rural county waiver is brought to fruition in the form of a completed skilled nursing home It is in that spirit that the Starr County Commissioners Court is requesting that DADS approve a rural county waiver for the new party Starr County SNF Project LLC at which time the original rural county waiver will be withdrawn

If you wish to make comments in this regard to the Commissioners Court these comments must be submitted in writing on or before thirty (30) days from the date this notice is published in the Texas Register to the Starr County Judgersquos office at 100 N FM 3167 Rio Grande City Texas 78582

University of Houston System Study of Finance Departments and Services The University of Houston System announces a Request for Proposal (RFP) for consultant services pursuant to Government Code Chapter 2254 Subchapter B

RFP 730-17049 Study of Finance Departments and Services

Purpose

The University of Houston (UH) Campus Services Department is seek-ing competitive responses to a Request for Proposal (RFP) for a Con-sultant to provide an independent analysis of the following departments and programs Financial Reporting and Compliance Travel Procure-ment Student Accounting State Appropriation Accounting Budget Office Student Financial Services Treasurerrsquos Offices Tax Account-ing Accounts Payable Plant Accounting the Historically Underuti-lized Business Office Research Accounting Property Management Business Services and General Accounting

Eligible Applicants

Services to be performed

bull Identifying gaps and deficiencies in current process and policy

bull Recommending process and policy revisions to model best practices

bull Assisting the university in developing procedure and desk manuals

bull Assisting the university in addressing recommendations and deficien-cies discovered during this review

Finding by Chief Executive Officer Renu Khator

After reviewing the current status and discussing this matter with the staff the evaluation of these services can only be conducted by a firm considered expert in university finance departments and processes The university believes that using a third-party consultant who has con-ducted similar evaluations of finance departments and programs on na-tional campuses similar in context and size to the University will pro-vide the institution with best practices that can be used to improve the service to our customers Similarly in this era of financial account-ability it is important for the University to understand if this service is providing best value to its customers and constituents The expertise needed for this evaluation is complex and requires a comprehensive knowledge of national industry trends related to university finance de-partments and programs Currently the staff does not have the breadth of experience needed for this evaluation Thus it is necessary for the University to engage a consultant to advise on university safety ser-vices and make recommendations as appropriate for the improvement of these services

Starr County Request for Comments Rural County Waiver for Medicaid Beds Department of Aging and Disability Services (DADS) rule 40 TAC sect192322(h)(7) permits the County Commissioners Court of a rural county with a population of less than 100000 and no more than two Medicaid-certified nursing facilities to request that DADS contract for additional Medicaid nursing facility beds in that county This may be done without regard to the occupancy rate of available beds in the county

The Starr County Commissioners Court is considering requesting that DADS contract for additional Medicaid nursing facility beds in Starr County The Commissioners Court is soliciting public input and com-ments on whether the request should be made to DADS and to consider proposals from qualified persons or entities interested in proving addi-tional Medicaid nursing home services in Starr County

To clarify the Starr County Commissioners Court previously recom-mended to DADS that DADS approve a rural county waiver for 120 Medicaid beds which DADS granted on May 22 2014 to the appli-cant Starr County RP Ltd

Since that time the underlying owner of the rural county waiver has sold virtually all of its assets to a new company Starr County SNF Project LLC who wishes to resume and complete the development of the rural county waiver for the benefit of the residents of Starr County DADS regulations do not allow the assignment or transfer of a waiver to a new party so a new waiver must be issued for the new party

Therefore the Starr County Commissioners Court is requesting that DADS approve a new rural county waiver for the applicant Starr County SNF Project LLC at which time the rural county waiver that was originally granted to Starr County RP Ltd can be withdrawn The Commissioners Court is soliciting public input and comments on this request for a new waiver and places particular emphasis on the fact that a determination of need has already been made and documented in the original rural county waiver matter and thus the determination of need still remains unmet until such time as the rural county waiver is brought to fruition in the form of a completed skilled nursing home It is in that spirit that the Starr County Commissioners Court is requesting that DADS approve a rural county waiver for the new party Starr County SNF Project LLC at which time the original rural county waiver will be withdrawn

If you wish to make comments in this regard to the Commissioners Court these comments must be submitted in writing on or before thirty (30) days from the date this notice is published in the Texas Register to the Starr County Judgersquos office at 100 N FM 3167 Rio Grande City Texas 78582

After reviewing the current status and discussing this matter with the staff the evaluation of these services can only be conducted by a firm considered expert in university finance departments and processes The university believes that using a third-party consultant who has con-ducted similar evaluations of finance departments and programs on na-tional campuses similar in context and size to the University will pro-vide the institution with best practices that can be used to improve the service to our customers Similarly in this era of financial account-ability it is important for the University to understand if this service is providing best value to its customers and constituents The expertise needed for this evaluation is complex and requires a comprehensive knowledge of national industry trends related to university finance de-partments and programs Currently the staff does not have the breadth of experience needed for this evaluation Thus it is necessary for the University to engage a consultant to advise on university safety ser-vices and make recommendations as appropriate for the improvement of these services

Starr County Request for Comments Rural County Waiver for Medicaid Beds Department of Aging and Disability Services (DADS) rule 40 TAC sect192322(h)(7) permits the County Commissioners Court of a rural county with a population of less than 100000 and no more than two Medicaid-certified nursing facilities to request that DADS contract for additional Medicaid nursing facility beds in that county This may be done without regard to the occupancy rate of available beds in the county

The Starr County Commissioners Court is considering requesting that DADS contract for additional Medicaid nursing facility beds in Starr County The Commissioners Court is soliciting public input and com-ments on whether the request should be made to DADS and to consider proposals from qualified persons or entities interested in proving addi-tional Medicaid nursing home services in Starr County

To clarify the Starr County Commissioners Court previously recom-mended to DADS that DADS approve a rural county waiver for 120 Medicaid beds which DADS granted on May 22 2014 to the appli-cant Starr County RP Ltd

Since that time the underlying owner of the rural county waiver has sold virtually all of its assets to a new company Starr County SNF Project LLC who wishes to resume and complete the development of the rural county waiver for the benefit of the residents of Starr County DADS regulations do not allow the assignment or transfer of a waiver to a new party so a new waiver must be issued for the new party

Therefore the Starr County Commissioners Court is requesting that DADS approve a new rural county waiver for the applicant Starr County SNF Project LLC at which time the rural county waiver that was originally granted to Starr County RP Ltd can be withdrawn The Commissioners Court is soliciting public input and comments on this request for a new waiver and places particular emphasis on the fact that a determination of need has already been made and documented in the original rural county waiver matter and thus the determination of need still remains unmet until such time as the rural county waiver is brought to fruition in the form of a completed skilled nursing home It is in that spirit that the Starr County Commissioners Court is requesting that DADS approve a rural county waiver for the new party Starr County SNF Project LLC at which time the original rural county waiver will be withdrawn

If you wish to make comments in this regard to the Commissioners Court these comments must be submitted in writing on or before thirty (30) days from the date this notice is published in the Texas Register to the Starr County Judgersquos office at 100 N FM 3167 Rio Grande City Texas 78582

Purpose

bull Assisting the university in developing procedure and desk manuals

bull Assisting the university in addressing recommendations and deficien-cies discovered during this review

Finding by Chief Executive Officer Renu Khator

After reviewing the current status and discussing this matter with the staff the evaluation of these services can only be conducted by a firm considered expert in university finance departments and processes The university believes that using a third-party consultant who has con-ducted similar evaluations of finance departments and programs on na-tional campuses similar in context and size to the University will pro-vide the institution with best practices that can be used to improve the service to our customers Similarly in this era of financial account-ability it is important for the University to understand if this service is providing best value to its customers and constituents The expertise needed for this evaluation is complex and requires a comprehensive knowledge of national industry trends related to university finance de-partments and programs Currently the staff does not have the breadth of experience needed for this evaluation Thus it is necessary for the University to engage a consultant to advise on university safety ser-vices and make recommendations as appropriate for the improvement of these services

Starr County Request for Comments Rural County Waiver for Medicaid Beds Department of Aging and Disability Services (DADS) rule 40 TAC sect192322(h)(7) permits the County Commissioners Court of a rural county with a population of less than 100000 and no more than two Medicaid-certified nursing facilities to request that DADS contract for additional Medicaid nursing facility beds in that county This may be done without regard to the occupancy rate of available beds in the county

The Starr County Commissioners Court is considering requesting that DADS contract for additional Medicaid nursing facility beds in Starr County The Commissioners Court is soliciting public input and com-ments on whether the request should be made to DADS and to consider proposals from qualified persons or entities interested in proving addi-tional Medicaid nursing home services in Starr County

To clarify the Starr County Commissioners Court previously recom-mended to DADS that DADS approve a rural county waiver for 120 Medicaid beds which DADS granted on May 22 2014 to the appli-cant Starr County RP Ltd

Since that time the underlying owner of the rural county waiver has sold virtually all of its assets to a new company Starr County SNF Project LLC who wishes to resume and complete the development of the rural county waiver for the benefit of the residents of Starr County DADS regulations do not allow the assignment or transfer of a waiver to a new party so a new waiver must be issued for the new party

Therefore the Starr County Commissioners Court is requesting that DADS approve a new rural county waiver for the applicant Starr County SNF Project LLC at which time the rural county waiver that was originally granted to Starr County RP Ltd can be withdrawn The Commissioners Court is soliciting public input and comments on this request for a new waiver and places particular emphasis on the fact that a determination of need has already been made and documented in the original rural county waiver matter and thus the determination of need still remains unmet until such time as the rural county waiver is brought to fruition in the form of a completed skilled nursing home It is in that spirit that the Starr County Commissioners Court is requesting that DADS approve a rural county waiver for the new party Starr County SNF Project LLC at which time the original rural county waiver will be withdrawn

If you wish to make comments in this regard to the Commissioners Court these comments must be submitted in writing on or before thirty (30) days from the date this notice is published in the Texas Register to the Starr County Judgersquos office at 100 N FM 3167 Rio Grande City Texas 78582

RFP 730-17049 Study of Finance Departments and Services

Purpose

The University of Houston (UH) Campus Services Department is seek-ing competitive responses to a Request for Proposal (RFP) for a Con-sultant to provide an independent analysis of the following departments and programs Financial Reporting and Compliance Travel Procure-ment Student Accounting State Appropriation Accounting Budget Office Student Financial Services Treasurerrsquos Offices Tax Account-ing Accounts Payable Plant Accounting the Historically Underuti-lized Business Office Research Accounting Property Management Business Services and General Accounting

bull Identifying gaps and deficiencies in current process and policy

bull Recommending process and policy revisions to model best practices

bull Assisting the university in developing procedure and desk manuals

bull Assisting the university in addressing recommendations and deficien-cies discovered during this review

Finding by Chief Executive Officer Renu Khator

After reviewing the current status and discussing this matter with the staff the evaluation of these services can only be conducted by a firm considered expert in university finance departments and processes The university believes that using a third-party consultant who has con-ducted similar evaluations of finance departments and programs on na-tional campuses similar in context and size to the University will pro-vide the institution with best practices that can be used to improve the service to our customers Similarly in this era of financial account-ability it is important for the University to understand if this service is providing best value to its customers and constituents The expertise needed for this evaluation is complex and requires a comprehensive knowledge of national industry trends related to university finance de-partments and programs Currently the staff does not have the breadth of experience needed for this evaluation Thus it is necessary for the University to engage a consultant to advise on university safety ser-vices and make recommendations as appropriate for the improvement of these services

Starr County Request for Comments Rural County Waiver for Medicaid Beds Department of Aging and Disability Services (DADS) rule 40 TAC sect192322(h)(7) permits the County Commissioners Court of a rural county with a population of less than 100000 and no more than two Medicaid-certified nursing facilities to request that DADS contract for additional Medicaid nursing facility beds in that county This may be done without regard to the occupancy rate of available beds in the county

The Starr County Commissioners Court is considering requesting that DADS contract for additional Medicaid nursing facility beds in Starr County The Commissioners Court is soliciting public input and com-ments on whether the request should be made to DADS and to consider proposals from qualified persons or entities interested in proving addi-tional Medicaid nursing home services in Starr County

To clarify the Starr County Commissioners Court previously recom-mended to DADS that DADS approve a rural county waiver for 120 Medicaid beds which DADS granted on May 22 2014 to the appli-cant Starr County RP Ltd

Since that time the underlying owner of the rural county waiver has sold virtually all of its assets to a new company Starr County SNF Project LLC who wishes to resume and complete the development of the rural county waiver for the benefit of the residents of Starr County DADS regulations do not allow the assignment or transfer of a waiver to a new party so a new waiver must be issued for the new party

Therefore the Starr County Commissioners Court is requesting that DADS approve a new rural county waiver for the applicant Starr County SNF Project LLC at which time the rural county waiver that was originally granted to Starr County RP Ltd can be withdrawn The Commissioners Court is soliciting public input and comments on this request for a new waiver and places particular emphasis on the fact that a determination of need has already been made and documented in the original rural county waiver matter and thus the determination of need still remains unmet until such time as the rural county waiver is brought to fruition in the form of a completed skilled nursing home It is in that spirit that the Starr County Commissioners Court is requesting that DADS approve a rural county waiver for the new party Starr County SNF Project LLC at which time the original rural county waiver will be withdrawn

If you wish to make comments in this regard to the Commissioners Court these comments must be submitted in writing on or before thirty (30) days from the date this notice is published in the Texas Register to the Starr County Judgersquos office at 100 N FM 3167 Rio Grande City Texas 78582

bull Recommending process and policy revisions to model best practices

bull Assisting the university in developing procedure and desk manuals

bull Assisting the university in addressing recommendations and deficien-cies discovered during this review

Finding by Chief Executive Officer Renu Khator

After reviewing the current status and discussing this matter with the staff the evaluation of these services can only be conducted by a firm considered expert in university finance departments and processes The university believes that using a third-party consultant who has con-ducted similar evaluations of finance departments and programs on na-tional campuses similar in context and size to the University will pro-vide the institution with best practices that can be used to improve the service to our customers Similarly in this era of financial account-ability it is important for the University to understand if this service is providing best value to its customers and constituents The expertise needed for this evaluation is complex and requires a comprehensive knowledge of national industry trends related to university finance de-partments and programs Currently the staff does not have the breadth of experience needed for this evaluation Thus it is necessary for the University to engage a consultant to advise on university safety ser-vices and make recommendations as appropriate for the improvement of these services

Starr County Request for Comments Rural County Waiver for Medicaid Beds Department of Aging and Disability Services (DADS) rule 40 TAC sect192322(h)(7) permits the County Commissioners Court of a rural county with a population of less than 100000 and no more than two Medicaid-certified nursing facilities to request that DADS contract for additional Medicaid nursing facility beds in that county This may be done without regard to the occupancy rate of available beds in the county

The Starr County Commissioners Court is considering requesting that DADS contract for additional Medicaid nursing facility beds in Starr County The Commissioners Court is soliciting public input and com-ments on whether the request should be made to DADS and to consider proposals from qualified persons or entities interested in proving addi-tional Medicaid nursing home services in Starr County

To clarify the Starr County Commissioners Court previously recom-mended to DADS that DADS approve a rural county waiver for 120 Medicaid beds which DADS granted on May 22 2014 to the appli-cant Starr County RP Ltd

Since that time the underlying owner of the rural county waiver has sold virtually all of its assets to a new company Starr County SNF Project LLC who wishes to resume and complete the development of the rural county waiver for the benefit of the residents of Starr County DADS regulations do not allow the assignment or transfer of a waiver to a new party so a new waiver must be issued for the new party

Therefore the Starr County Commissioners Court is requesting that DADS approve a new rural county waiver for the applicant Starr County SNF Project LLC at which time the rural county waiver that was originally granted to Starr County RP Ltd can be withdrawn The Commissioners Court is soliciting public input and comments on this request for a new waiver and places particular emphasis on the fact that a determination of need has already been made and documented in the original rural county waiver matter and thus the determination of need still remains unmet until such time as the rural county waiver is brought to fruition in the form of a completed skilled nursing home It is in that spirit that the Starr County Commissioners Court is requesting that DADS approve a rural county waiver for the new party Starr County SNF Project LLC at which time the original rural county waiver will be withdrawn

If you wish to make comments in this regard to the Commissioners Court these comments must be submitted in writing on or before thirty (30) days from the date this notice is published in the Texas Register to the Starr County Judgersquos office at 100 N FM 3167 Rio Grande City Texas 78582

RFP 730-17049 Study of Finance Departments and Services

Purpose

The University of Houston (UH) Campus Services Department is seek-ing competitive responses to a Request for Proposal (RFP) for a Con-sultant to provide an independent analysis of the following departments and programs Financial Reporting and Compliance Travel Procure-ment Student Accounting State Appropriation Accounting Budget Office Student Financial Services Treasurerrsquos Offices Tax Account-ing Accounts Payable Plant Accounting the Historically Underuti-lized Business Office Research Accounting Property Management Business Services and General Accounting

bull Identifying gaps and deficiencies in current process and policy

bull Recommending process and policy revisions to model best practices

bull Assisting the university in developing procedure and desk manuals

bull Assisting the university in addressing recommendations and deficien-cies discovered during this review

Finding by Chief Executive Officer Renu Khator

After reviewing the current status and discussing this matter with the staff the evaluation of these services can only be conducted by a firm considered expert in university finance departments and processes The university believes that using a third-party consultant who has con-ducted similar evaluations of finance departments and programs on na-tional campuses similar in context and size to the University will pro-vide the institution with best practices that can be used to improve the service to our customers Similarly in this era of financial account-ability it is important for the University to understand if this service is providing best value to its customers and constituents The expertise needed for this evaluation is complex and requires a comprehensive knowledge of national industry trends related to university finance de-partments and programs Currently the staff does not have the breadth of experience needed for this evaluation Thus it is necessary for the University to engage a consultant to advise on university safety ser-vices and make recommendations as appropriate for the improvement of these services

Starr County Request for Comments Rural County Waiver for Medicaid Beds Department of Aging and Disability Services (DADS) rule 40 TAC sect192322(h)(7) permits the County Commissioners Court of a rural county with a population of less than 100000 and no more than two Medicaid-certified nursing facilities to request that DADS contract for additional Medicaid nursing facility beds in that county This may be done without regard to the occupancy rate of available beds in the county

The Starr County Commissioners Court is considering requesting that DADS contract for additional Medicaid nursing facility beds in Starr County The Commissioners Court is soliciting public input and com-ments on whether the request should be made to DADS and to consider proposals from qualified persons or entities interested in proving addi-tional Medicaid nursing home services in Starr County

To clarify the Starr County Commissioners Court previously recom-mended to DADS that DADS approve a rural county waiver for 120 Medicaid beds which DADS granted on May 22 2014 to the appli-cant Starr County RP Ltd

Since that time the underlying owner of the rural county waiver has sold virtually all of its assets to a new company Starr County SNF Project LLC who wishes to resume and complete the development of the rural county waiver for the benefit of the residents of Starr County DADS regulations do not allow the assignment or transfer of a waiver to a new party so a new waiver must be issued for the new party

Therefore the Starr County Commissioners Court is requesting that DADS approve a new rural county waiver for the applicant Starr County SNF Project LLC at which time the rural county waiver that was originally granted to Starr County RP Ltd can be withdrawn The Commissioners Court is soliciting public input and comments on this request for a new waiver and places particular emphasis on the fact that a determination of need has already been made and documented in the original rural county waiver matter and thus the determination of need still remains unmet until such time as the rural county waiver is brought to fruition in the form of a completed skilled nursing home It is in that spirit that the Starr County Commissioners Court is requesting that DADS approve a rural county waiver for the new party Starr County SNF Project LLC at which time the original rural county waiver will be withdrawn

If you wish to make comments in this regard to the Commissioners Court these comments must be submitted in writing on or before thirty (30) days from the date this notice is published in the Texas Register to the Starr County Judgersquos office at 100 N FM 3167 Rio Grande City Texas 78582

bull Assisting the university in developing procedure and desk manuals

bull Assisting the university in addressing recommendations and deficien-cies discovered during this review

Finding by Chief Executive Officer Renu Khator

After reviewing the current status and discussing this matter with the staff the evaluation of these services can only be conducted by a firm considered expert in university finance departments and processes The university believes that using a third-party consultant who has con-ducted similar evaluations of finance departments and programs on na-tional campuses similar in context and size to the University will pro-vide the institution with best practices that can be used to improve the service to our customers Similarly in this era of financial account-ability it is important for the University to understand if this service is providing best value to its customers and constituents The expertise needed for this evaluation is complex and requires a comprehensive knowledge of national industry trends related to university finance de-partments and programs Currently the staff does not have the breadth of experience needed for this evaluation Thus it is necessary for the University to engage a consultant to advise on university safety ser-vices and make recommendations as appropriate for the improvement of these services

Starr County Request for Comments Rural County Waiver for Medicaid Beds Department of Aging and Disability Services (DADS) rule 40 TAC sect192322(h)(7) permits the County Commissioners Court of a rural county with a population of less than 100000 and no more than two Medicaid-certified nursing facilities to request that DADS contract for additional Medicaid nursing facility beds in that county This may be done without regard to the occupancy rate of available beds in the county

The Starr County Commissioners Court is considering requesting that DADS contract for additional Medicaid nursing facility beds in Starr County The Commissioners Court is soliciting public input and com-ments on whether the request should be made to DADS and to consider proposals from qualified persons or entities interested in proving addi-tional Medicaid nursing home services in Starr County

To clarify the Starr County Commissioners Court previously recom-mended to DADS that DADS approve a rural county waiver for 120 Medicaid beds which DADS granted on May 22 2014 to the appli-cant Starr County RP Ltd

Since that time the underlying owner of the rural county waiver has sold virtually all of its assets to a new company Starr County SNF Project LLC who wishes to resume and complete the development of the rural county waiver for the benefit of the residents of Starr County DADS regulations do not allow the assignment or transfer of a waiver to a new party so a new waiver must be issued for the new party

Therefore the Starr County Commissioners Court is requesting that DADS approve a new rural county waiver for the applicant Starr County SNF Project LLC at which time the rural county waiver that was originally granted to Starr County RP Ltd can be withdrawn The Commissioners Court is soliciting public input and comments on this request for a new waiver and places particular emphasis on the fact that a determination of need has already been made and documented in the original rural county waiver matter and thus the determination of need still remains unmet until such time as the rural county waiver is brought to fruition in the form of a completed skilled nursing home It is in that spirit that the Starr County Commissioners Court is requesting that DADS approve a rural county waiver for the new party Starr County SNF Project LLC at which time the original rural county waiver will be withdrawn

If you wish to make comments in this regard to the Commissioners Court these comments must be submitted in writing on or before thirty (30) days from the date this notice is published in the Texas Register to the Starr County Judgersquos office at 100 N FM 3167 Rio Grande City Texas 78582

University of Houston System Study of Finance Departments and Services The University of Houston System announces a Request for Proposal (RFP) for consultant services pursuant to Government Code Chapter 2254 Subchapter B

RFP 730-17049 Study of Finance Departments and Services

Purpose

The University of Houston (UH) Campus Services Department is seek-ing competitive responses to a Request for Proposal (RFP) for a Con-sultant to provide an independent analysis of the following departments and programs Financial Reporting and Compliance Travel Procure-ment Student Accounting State Appropriation Accounting Budget Office Student Financial Services Treasurerrsquos Offices Tax Account-ing Accounts Payable Plant Accounting the Historically Underuti-lized Business Office Research Accounting Property Management Business Services and General Accounting

Eligible Applicants

Services to be performed

bull Identifying gaps and deficiencies in current process and policy

bull Recommending process and policy revisions to model best practices

bull Assisting the university in developing procedure and desk manuals

bull Assisting the university in addressing recommendations and deficien-cies discovered during this review

Finding by Chief Executive Officer Renu Khator

After reviewing the current status and discussing this matter with the staff the evaluation of these services can only be conducted by a firm considered expert in university finance departments and processes The university believes that using a third-party consultant who has con-ducted similar evaluations of finance departments and programs on na-tional campuses similar in context and size to the University will pro-vide the institution with best practices that can be used to improve the service to our customers Similarly in this era of financial account-ability it is important for the University to understand if this service is providing best value to its customers and constituents The expertise needed for this evaluation is complex and requires a comprehensive knowledge of national industry trends related to university finance de-partments and programs Currently the staff does not have the breadth of experience needed for this evaluation Thus it is necessary for the University to engage a consultant to advise on university safety ser-vices and make recommendations as appropriate for the improvement of these services

Starr County Request for Comments Rural County Waiver for Medicaid Beds Department of Aging and Disability Services (DADS) rule 40 TAC sect192322(h)(7) permits the County Commissioners Court of a rural county with a population of less than 100000 and no more than two Medicaid-certified nursing facilities to request that DADS contract for additional Medicaid nursing facility beds in that county This may be done without regard to the occupancy rate of available beds in the county

The Starr County Commissioners Court is considering requesting that DADS contract for additional Medicaid nursing facility beds in Starr County The Commissioners Court is soliciting public input and com-ments on whether the request should be made to DADS and to consider proposals from qualified persons or entities interested in proving addi-tional Medicaid nursing home services in Starr County

To clarify the Starr County Commissioners Court previously recom-mended to DADS that DADS approve a rural county waiver for 120 Medicaid beds which DADS granted on May 22 2014 to the appli-cant Starr County RP Ltd

Since that time the underlying owner of the rural county waiver has sold virtually all of its assets to a new company Starr County SNF Project LLC who wishes to resume and complete the development of the rural county waiver for the benefit of the residents of Starr County DADS regulations do not allow the assignment or transfer of a waiver to a new party so a new waiver must be issued for the new party

Therefore the Starr County Commissioners Court is requesting that DADS approve a new rural county waiver for the applicant Starr County SNF Project LLC at which time the rural county waiver that was originally granted to Starr County RP Ltd can be withdrawn The Commissioners Court is soliciting public input and comments on this request for a new waiver and places particular emphasis on the fact that a determination of need has already been made and documented in the original rural county waiver matter and thus the determination of need still remains unmet until such time as the rural county waiver is brought to fruition in the form of a completed skilled nursing home It is in that spirit that the Starr County Commissioners Court is requesting that DADS approve a rural county waiver for the new party Starr County SNF Project LLC at which time the original rural county waiver will be withdrawn

If you wish to make comments in this regard to the Commissioners Court these comments must be submitted in writing on or before thirty (30) days from the date this notice is published in the Texas Register to the Starr County Judgersquos office at 100 N FM 3167 Rio Grande City Texas 78582

RFP 730-17049 Study of Finance Departments and Services

Purpose

The University of Houston (UH) Campus Services Department is seek-ing competitive responses to a Request for Proposal (RFP) for a Con-sultant to provide an independent analysis of the following departments and programs Financial Reporting and Compliance Travel Procure-ment Student Accounting State Appropriation Accounting Budget Office Student Financial Services Treasurerrsquos Offices Tax Account-ing Accounts Payable Plant Accounting the Historically Underuti-lized Business Office Research Accounting Property Management Business Services and General Accounting

bull Assisting the university in addressing recommendations and deficien-cies discovered during this review

Finding by Chief Executive Officer Renu Khator

After reviewing the current status and discussing this matter with the staff the evaluation of these services can only be conducted by a firm considered expert in university finance departments and processes The university believes that using a third-party consultant who has con-ducted similar evaluations of finance departments and programs on na-tional campuses similar in context and size to the University will pro-vide the institution with best practices that can be used to improve the service to our customers Similarly in this era of financial account-ability it is important for the University to understand if this service is providing best value to its customers and constituents The expertise needed for this evaluation is complex and requires a comprehensive knowledge of national industry trends related to university finance de-partments and programs Currently the staff does not have the breadth of experience needed for this evaluation Thus it is necessary for the University to engage a consultant to advise on university safety ser-vices and make recommendations as appropriate for the improvement of these services

Starr County Request for Comments Rural County Waiver for Medicaid Beds Department of Aging and Disability Services (DADS) rule 40 TAC sect192322(h)(7) permits the County Commissioners Court of a rural county with a population of less than 100000 and no more than two Medicaid-certified nursing facilities to request that DADS contract for additional Medicaid nursing facility beds in that county This may be done without regard to the occupancy rate of available beds in the county

The Starr County Commissioners Court is considering requesting that DADS contract for additional Medicaid nursing facility beds in Starr County The Commissioners Court is soliciting public input and com-ments on whether the request should be made to DADS and to consider proposals from qualified persons or entities interested in proving addi-tional Medicaid nursing home services in Starr County

To clarify the Starr County Commissioners Court previously recom-mended to DADS that DADS approve a rural county waiver for 120 Medicaid beds which DADS granted on May 22 2014 to the appli-cant Starr County RP Ltd

Since that time the underlying owner of the rural county waiver has sold virtually all of its assets to a new company Starr County SNF Project LLC who wishes to resume and complete the development of the rural county waiver for the benefit of the residents of Starr County DADS regulations do not allow the assignment or transfer of a waiver to a new party so a new waiver must be issued for the new party

Therefore the Starr County Commissioners Court is requesting that DADS approve a new rural county waiver for the applicant Starr County SNF Project LLC at which time the rural county waiver that was originally granted to Starr County RP Ltd can be withdrawn The Commissioners Court is soliciting public input and comments on this request for a new waiver and places particular emphasis on the fact that a determination of need has already been made and documented in the original rural county waiver matter and thus the determination of need still remains unmet until such time as the rural county waiver is brought to fruition in the form of a completed skilled nursing home It is in that spirit that the Starr County Commissioners Court is requesting that DADS approve a rural county waiver for the new party Starr County SNF Project LLC at which time the original rural county waiver will be withdrawn

If you wish to make comments in this regard to the Commissioners Court these comments must be submitted in writing on or before thirty (30) days from the date this notice is published in the Texas Register to the Starr County Judgersquos office at 100 N FM 3167 Rio Grande City Texas 78582

Purpose

The University of Houston (UH) Campus Services Department is seek-ing competitive responses to a Request for Proposal (RFP) for a Con-sultant to provide an independent analysis of the following departments and programs Financial Reporting and Compliance Travel Procure-ment Student Accounting State Appropriation Accounting Budget Office Student Financial Services Treasurerrsquos Offices Tax Account-ing Accounts Payable Plant Accounting the Historically Underuti-lized Business Office Research Accounting Property Management Business Services and General Accounting

bull Assisting the university in developing procedure and desk manuals

bull Assisting the university in addressing recommendations and deficien-cies discovered during this review

Finding by Chief Executive Officer Renu Khator

After reviewing the current status and discussing this matter with the staff the evaluation of these services can only be conducted by a firm considered expert in university finance departments and processes The university believes that using a third-party consultant who has con-ducted similar evaluations of finance departments and programs on na-tional campuses similar in context and size to the University will pro-vide the institution with best practices that can be used to improve the service to our customers Similarly in this era of financial account-ability it is important for the University to understand if this service is providing best value to its customers and constituents The expertise needed for this evaluation is complex and requires a comprehensive knowledge of national industry trends related to university finance de-partments and programs Currently the staff does not have the breadth of experience needed for this evaluation Thus it is necessary for the University to engage a consultant to advise on university safety ser-vices and make recommendations as appropriate for the improvement of these services

Starr County Request for Comments Rural County Waiver for Medicaid Beds Department of Aging and Disability Services (DADS) rule 40 TAC sect192322(h)(7) permits the County Commissioners Court of a rural county with a population of less than 100000 and no more than two Medicaid-certified nursing facilities to request that DADS contract for additional Medicaid nursing facility beds in that county This may be done without regard to the occupancy rate of available beds in the county

The Starr County Commissioners Court is considering requesting that DADS contract for additional Medicaid nursing facility beds in Starr County The Commissioners Court is soliciting public input and com-ments on whether the request should be made to DADS and to consider proposals from qualified persons or entities interested in proving addi-tional Medicaid nursing home services in Starr County

To clarify the Starr County Commissioners Court previously recom-mended to DADS that DADS approve a rural county waiver for 120 Medicaid beds which DADS granted on May 22 2014 to the appli-cant Starr County RP Ltd

Since that time the underlying owner of the rural county waiver has sold virtually all of its assets to a new company Starr County SNF Project LLC who wishes to resume and complete the development of the rural county waiver for the benefit of the residents of Starr County DADS regulations do not allow the assignment or transfer of a waiver to a new party so a new waiver must be issued for the new party

Therefore the Starr County Commissioners Court is requesting that DADS approve a new rural county waiver for the applicant Starr County SNF Project LLC at which time the rural county waiver that was originally granted to Starr County RP Ltd can be withdrawn The Commissioners Court is soliciting public input and comments on this request for a new waiver and places particular emphasis on the fact that a determination of need has already been made and documented in the original rural county waiver matter and thus the determination of need still remains unmet until such time as the rural county waiver is brought to fruition in the form of a completed skilled nursing home It is in that spirit that the Starr County Commissioners Court is requesting that DADS approve a rural county waiver for the new party Starr County SNF Project LLC at which time the original rural county waiver will be withdrawn

If you wish to make comments in this regard to the Commissioners Court these comments must be submitted in writing on or before thirty (30) days from the date this notice is published in the Texas Register to the Starr County Judgersquos office at 100 N FM 3167 Rio Grande City Texas 78582

University of Houston System Study of Finance Departments and Services The University of Houston System announces a Request for Proposal (RFP) for consultant services pursuant to Government Code Chapter 2254 Subchapter B

RFP 730-17049 Study of Finance Departments and Services

Purpose

The University of Houston (UH) Campus Services Department is seek-ing competitive responses to a Request for Proposal (RFP) for a Con-sultant to provide an independent analysis of the following departments and programs Financial Reporting and Compliance Travel Procure-ment Student Accounting State Appropriation Accounting Budget Office Student Financial Services Treasurerrsquos Offices Tax Account-ing Accounts Payable Plant Accounting the Historically Underuti-lized Business Office Research Accounting Property Management Business Services and General Accounting

Eligible Applicants

Consulting firms with related knowledge and experience in Firms that have expertise with evaluating Finance departments programs and processes

Services to be performed

bull Analysis of current business processes

bull Benchmarking current business processes to best practices

bull Identifying gaps and deficiencies in current process and policy

bull Recommending process and policy revisions to model best practices

bull Assisting the university in developing procedure and desk manuals

bull Assisting the university in addressing recommendations and deficien-cies discovered during this review

Finding by Chief Executive Officer Renu Khator

After reviewing the current status and discussing this matter with the staff the evaluation of these services can only be conducted by a firm considered expert in university finance departments and processes The university believes that using a third-party consultant who has con-ducted similar evaluations of finance departments and programs on na-tional campuses similar in context and size to the University will pro-vide the institution with best practices that can be used to improve the service to our customers Similarly in this era of financial account-ability it is important for the University to understand if this service is providing best value to its customers and constituents The expertise needed for this evaluation is complex and requires a comprehensive knowledge of national industry trends related to university finance de-partments and programs Currently the staff does not have the breadth of experience needed for this evaluation Thus it is necessary for the University to engage a consultant to advise on university safety ser-vices and make recommendations as appropriate for the improvement of these services

Starr County Request for Comments Rural County Waiver for Medicaid Beds Department of Aging and Disability Services (DADS) rule 40 TAC sect192322(h)(7) permits the County Commissioners Court of a rural county with a population of less than 100000 and no more than two Medicaid-certified nursing facilities to request that DADS contract for additional Medicaid nursing facility beds in that county This may be done without regard to the occupancy rate of available beds in the county

The Starr County Commissioners Court is considering requesting that DADS contract for additional Medicaid nursing facility beds in Starr County The Commissioners Court is soliciting public input and com-ments on whether the request should be made to DADS and to consider proposals from qualified persons or entities interested in proving addi-tional Medicaid nursing home services in Starr County

To clarify the Starr County Commissioners Court previously recom-mended to DADS that DADS approve a rural county waiver for 120 Medicaid beds which DADS granted on May 22 2014 to the appli-cant Starr County RP Ltd

Since that time the underlying owner of the rural county waiver has sold virtually all of its assets to a new company Starr County SNF Project LLC who wishes to resume and complete the development of the rural county waiver for the benefit of the residents of Starr County DADS regulations do not allow the assignment or transfer of a waiver to a new party so a new waiver must be issued for the new party

Therefore the Starr County Commissioners Court is requesting that DADS approve a new rural county waiver for the applicant Starr County SNF Project LLC at which time the rural county waiver that was originally granted to Starr County RP Ltd can be withdrawn The Commissioners Court is soliciting public input and comments on this request for a new waiver and places particular emphasis on the fact that a determination of need has already been made and documented in the original rural county waiver matter and thus the determination of need still remains unmet until such time as the rural county waiver is brought to fruition in the form of a completed skilled nursing home It is in that spirit that the Starr County Commissioners Court is requesting that DADS approve a rural county waiver for the new party Starr County SNF Project LLC at which time the original rural county waiver will be withdrawn

If you wish to make comments in this regard to the Commissioners Court these comments must be submitted in writing on or before thirty (30) days from the date this notice is published in the Texas Register to the Starr County Judgersquos office at 100 N FM 3167 Rio Grande City Texas 78582

University of Houston System Study of Finance Departments and Services The University of Houston System announces a Request for Proposal (RFP) for consultant services pursuant to Government Code Chapter 2254 Subchapter B

RFP 730-17049 Study of Finance Departments and Services

Purpose

The University of Houston (UH) Campus Services Department is seek-ing competitive responses to a Request for Proposal (RFP) for a Con-sultant to provide an independent analysis of the following departments and programs Financial Reporting and Compliance Travel Procure-ment Student Accounting State Appropriation Accounting Budget Office Student Financial Services Treasurerrsquos Offices Tax Account-ing Accounts Payable Plant Accounting the Historically Underuti-lized Business Office Research Accounting Property Management Business Services and General Accounting

Eligible Applicants

Consulting firms with related knowledge and experience in Firms that have expertise with evaluating Finance departments programs and processes

Services to be performed

bull Analysis of current business processes

bull Identifying gaps and deficiencies in current process and policy

bull Recommending process and policy revisions to model best practices

bull Assisting the university in developing procedure and desk manuals

bull Assisting the university in addressing recommendations and deficien-cies discovered during this review

Finding by Chief Executive Officer Renu Khator

After reviewing the current status and discussing this matter with the staff the evaluation of these services can only be conducted by a firm considered expert in university finance departments and processes The university believes that using a third-party consultant who has con-ducted similar evaluations of finance departments and programs on na-tional campuses similar in context and size to the University will pro-vide the institution with best practices that can be used to improve the service to our customers Similarly in this era of financial account-ability it is important for the University to understand if this service is providing best value to its customers and constituents The expertise needed for this evaluation is complex and requires a comprehensive knowledge of national industry trends related to university finance de-partments and programs Currently the staff does not have the breadth of experience needed for this evaluation Thus it is necessary for the University to engage a consultant to advise on university safety ser-vices and make recommendations as appropriate for the improvement of these services

Starr County Request for Comments Rural County Waiver for Medicaid Beds Department of Aging and Disability Services (DADS) rule 40 TAC sect192322(h)(7) permits the County Commissioners Court of a rural county with a population of less than 100000 and no more than two Medicaid-certified nursing facilities to request that DADS contract for additional Medicaid nursing facility beds in that county This may be done without regard to the occupancy rate of available beds in the county

The Starr County Commissioners Court is considering requesting that DADS contract for additional Medicaid nursing facility beds in Starr County The Commissioners Court is soliciting public input and com-ments on whether the request should be made to DADS and to consider proposals from qualified persons or entities interested in proving addi-tional Medicaid nursing home services in Starr County

To clarify the Starr County Commissioners Court previously recom-mended to DADS that DADS approve a rural county waiver for 120 Medicaid beds which DADS granted on May 22 2014 to the appli-cant Starr County RP Ltd

Since that time the underlying owner of the rural county waiver has sold virtually all of its assets to a new company Starr County SNF Project LLC who wishes to resume and complete the development of the rural county waiver for the benefit of the residents of Starr County DADS regulations do not allow the assignment or transfer of a waiver to a new party so a new waiver must be issued for the new party

Therefore the Starr County Commissioners Court is requesting that DADS approve a new rural county waiver for the applicant Starr County SNF Project LLC at which time the rural county waiver that was originally granted to Starr County RP Ltd can be withdrawn The Commissioners Court is soliciting public input and comments on this request for a new waiver and places particular emphasis on the fact that a determination of need has already been made and documented in the original rural county waiver matter and thus the determination of need still remains unmet until such time as the rural county waiver is brought to fruition in the form of a completed skilled nursing home It is in that spirit that the Starr County Commissioners Court is requesting that DADS approve a rural county waiver for the new party Starr County SNF Project LLC at which time the original rural county waiver will be withdrawn

If you wish to make comments in this regard to the Commissioners Court these comments must be submitted in writing on or before thirty (30) days from the date this notice is published in the Texas Register to the Starr County Judgersquos office at 100 N FM 3167 Rio Grande City Texas 78582

University of Houston System Study of Finance Departments and Services The University of Houston System announces a Request for Proposal (RFP) for consultant services pursuant to Government Code Chapter 2254 Subchapter B

RFP 730-17049 Study of Finance Departments and Services

Purpose

The University of Houston (UH) Campus Services Department is seek-ing competitive responses to a Request for Proposal (RFP) for a Con-sultant to provide an independent analysis of the following departments and programs Financial Reporting and Compliance Travel Procure-ment Student Accounting State Appropriation Accounting Budget Office Student Financial Services Treasurerrsquos Offices Tax Account-ing Accounts Payable Plant Accounting the Historically Underuti-lized Business Office Research Accounting Property Management Business Services and General Accounting

Eligible Applicants

Consulting firms with related knowledge and experience in Firms that have expertise with evaluating Finance departments programs and processes

Services to be performed

bull Analysis of current business processes

bull Identifying gaps and deficiencies in current process and policy

bull Recommending process and policy revisions to model best practices

bull Assisting the university in developing procedure and desk manuals

bull Assisting the university in addressing recommendations and deficien-cies discovered during this review

Finding by Chief Executive Officer Renu Khator

After reviewing the current status and discussing this matter with the staff the evaluation of these services can only be conducted by a firm considered expert in university finance departments and processes The university believes that using a third-party consultant who has con-ducted similar evaluations of finance departments and programs on na-tional campuses similar in context and size to the University will pro-vide the institution with best practices that can be used to improve the service to our customers Similarly in this era of financial account-ability it is important for the University to understand if this service is providing best value to its customers and constituents The expertise needed for this evaluation is complex and requires a comprehensive knowledge of national industry trends related to university finance de-partments and programs Currently the staff does not have the breadth of experience needed for this evaluation Thus it is necessary for the University to engage a consultant to advise on university safety ser-vices and make recommendations as appropriate for the improvement of these services

The Starr County Commissioners Court is considering requesting that DADS contract for additional Medicaid nursing facility beds in Starr County The Commissioners Court is soliciting public input and com-ments on whether the request should be made to DADS and to consider proposals from qualified persons or entities interested in proving addi-tional Medicaid nursing home services in Starr County

To clarify the Starr County Commissioners Court previously recom-mended to DADS that DADS approve a rural county waiver for 120 Medicaid beds which DADS granted on May 22 2014 to the appli-cant Starr County RP Ltd

Since that time the underlying owner of the rural county waiver has sold virtually all of its assets to a new company Starr County SNF Project LLC who wishes to resume and complete the development of the rural county waiver for the benefit of the residents of Starr County DADS regulations do not allow the assignment or transfer of a waiver to a new party so a new waiver must be issued for the new party

Therefore the Starr County Commissioners Court is requesting that DADS approve a new rural county waiver for the applicant Starr County SNF Project LLC at which time the rural county waiver that was originally granted to Starr County RP Ltd can be withdrawn The Commissioners Court is soliciting public input and comments on this request for a new waiver and places particular emphasis on the fact that a determination of need has already been made and documented in the original rural county waiver matter and thus the determination of need still remains unmet until such time as the rural county waiver is brought to fruition in the form of a completed skilled nursing home It is in that spirit that the Starr County Commissioners Court is requesting that DADS approve a rural county waiver for the new party Starr County SNF Project LLC at which time the original rural county waiver will be withdrawn

If you wish to make comments in this regard to the Commissioners Court these comments must be submitted in writing on or before thirty (30) days from the date this notice is published in the Texas Register to the Starr County Judgersquos office at 100 N FM 3167 Rio Grande City Texas 78582

RFP 730-17049 Study of Finance Departments and Services

Purpose

The University of Houston (UH) Campus Services Department is seek-ing competitive responses to a Request for Proposal (RFP) for a Con-sultant to provide an independent analysis of the following departments and programs Financial Reporting and Compliance Travel Procure-ment Student Accounting State Appropriation Accounting Budget Office Student Financial Services Treasurerrsquos Offices Tax Account-ing Accounts Payable Plant Accounting the Historically Underuti-lized Business Office Research Accounting Property Management Business Services and General Accounting

Eligible Applicants

Consulting firms with related knowledge and experience in Firms that have expertise with evaluating Finance departments programs and processes

Services to be performed

bull Identifying gaps and deficiencies in current process and policy

bull Recommending process and policy revisions to model best practices

bull Assisting the university in developing procedure and desk manuals

bull Assisting the university in addressing recommendations and deficien-cies discovered during this review

Finding by Chief Executive Officer Renu Khator

After reviewing the current status and discussing this matter with the staff the evaluation of these services can only be conducted by a firm considered expert in university finance departments and processes The university believes that using a third-party consultant who has con-ducted similar evaluations of finance departments and programs on na-tional campuses similar in context and size to the University will pro-vide the institution with best practices that can be used to improve the service to our customers Similarly in this era of financial account-ability it is important for the University to understand if this service is providing best value to its customers and constituents The expertise needed for this evaluation is complex and requires a comprehensive knowledge of national industry trends related to university finance de-partments and programs Currently the staff does not have the breadth of experience needed for this evaluation Thus it is necessary for the University to engage a consultant to advise on university safety ser-vices and make recommendations as appropriate for the improvement of these services

Starr County Request for Comments Rural County Waiver for Medicaid Beds Department of Aging and Disability Services (DADS) rule 40 TAC sect192322(h)(7) permits the County Commissioners Court of a rural county with a population of less than 100000 and no more than two Medicaid-certified nursing facilities to request that DADS contract for additional Medicaid nursing facility beds in that county This may be done without regard to the occupancy rate of available beds in the county

The Starr County Commissioners Court is considering requesting that DADS contract for additional Medicaid nursing facility beds in Starr County The Commissioners Court is soliciting public input and com-ments on whether the request should be made to DADS and to consider proposals from qualified persons or entities interested in proving addi-tional Medicaid nursing home services in Starr County

To clarify the Starr County Commissioners Court previously recom-mended to DADS that DADS approve a rural county waiver for 120 Medicaid beds which DADS granted on May 22 2014 to the appli-cant Starr County RP Ltd

Since that time the underlying owner of the rural county waiver has sold virtually all of its assets to a new company Starr County SNF Project LLC who wishes to resume and complete the development of the rural county waiver for the benefit of the residents of Starr County DADS regulations do not allow the assignment or transfer of a waiver to a new party so a new waiver must be issued for the new party

Therefore the Starr County Commissioners Court is requesting that DADS approve a new rural county waiver for the applicant Starr County SNF Project LLC at which time the rural county waiver that was originally granted to Starr County RP Ltd can be withdrawn The Commissioners Court is soliciting public input and comments on this request for a new waiver and places particular emphasis on the fact that a determination of need has already been made and documented in the original rural county waiver matter and thus the determination of need still remains unmet until such time as the rural county waiver is brought to fruition in the form of a completed skilled nursing home It is in that spirit that the Starr County Commissioners Court is requesting that DADS approve a rural county waiver for the new party Starr County SNF Project LLC at which time the original rural county waiver will be withdrawn

If you wish to make comments in this regard to the Commissioners Court these comments must be submitted in writing on or before thirty (30) days from the date this notice is published in the Texas Register to the Starr County Judgersquos office at 100 N FM 3167 Rio Grande City Texas 78582

Starr County Request for Comments Rural County Waiver for Medicaid Beds Department of Aging and Disability Services (DADS) rule 40 TAC sect192322(h)(7) permits the County Commissioners Court of a rural county with a population of less than 100000 and no more than two Medicaid-certified nursing facilities to request that DADS contract for additional Medicaid nursing facility beds in that county This may be done without regard to the occupancy rate of available beds in the county

The Starr County Commissioners Court is considering requesting that DADS contract for additional Medicaid nursing facility beds in Starr County The Commissioners Court is soliciting public input and com-ments on whether the request should be made to DADS and to consider proposals from qualified persons or entities interested in proving addi-tional Medicaid nursing home services in Starr County

To clarify the Starr County Commissioners Court previously recom-mended to DADS that DADS approve a rural county waiver for 120 Medicaid beds which DADS granted on May 22 2014 to the appli-cant Starr County RP Ltd

Since that time the underlying owner of the rural county waiver has sold virtually all of its assets to a new company Starr County SNF Project LLC who wishes to resume and complete the development of the rural county waiver for the benefit of the residents of Starr County DADS regulations do not allow the assignment or transfer of a waiver to a new party so a new waiver must be issued for the new party

Therefore the Starr County Commissioners Court is requesting that DADS approve a new rural county waiver for the applicant Starr County SNF Project LLC at which time the rural county waiver that was originally granted to Starr County RP Ltd can be withdrawn The Commissioners Court is soliciting public input and comments on this request for a new waiver and places particular emphasis on the fact that a determination of need has already been made and documented in the original rural county waiver matter and thus the determination of need still remains unmet until such time as the rural county waiver is brought to fruition in the form of a completed skilled nursing home It is in that spirit that the Starr County Commissioners Court is requesting that DADS approve a rural county waiver for the new party Starr County SNF Project LLC at which time the original rural county waiver will be withdrawn

If you wish to make comments in this regard to the Commissioners Court these comments must be submitted in writing on or before thirty (30) days from the date this notice is published in the Texas Register to the Starr County Judgersquos office at 100 N FM 3167 Rio Grande City Texas 78582

After reviewing the current status and discussing this matter with the staff the evaluation of these services can only be conducted by a firm considered expert in university finance departments and processes The university believes that using a third-party consultant who has con-ducted similar evaluations of finance departments and programs on na-tional campuses similar in context and size to the University will pro-vide the institution with best practices that can be used to improve the service to our customers Similarly in this era of financial account-ability it is important for the University to understand if this service is providing best value to its customers and constituents The expertise needed for this evaluation is complex and requires a comprehensive knowledge of national industry trends related to university finance de-partments and programs Currently the staff does not have the breadth of experience needed for this evaluation Thus it is necessary for the University to engage a consultant to advise on university safety ser-vices and make recommendations as appropriate for the improvement of these services
