Requires DHS to establish system to ensure distribution of funds for certain support services for General Assistance beneficiaries ceases upon beneficiary's exit from support service.

This bill (A 3980) requires New Jersey's Department of Human Services to create a system that stops funding for substance use disorder treatment or housing services when General Assistance program beneficiaries exit those services. It directly affects beneficiaries receiving General Assistance cash benefits and the service providers (like treatment centers or housing agencies) that receive state funds. The key mechanism mandates that funding must cease on the exact date a beneficiary is discharged or no longer receives services, with the Commissioner authorized to verify service dates and demand repayment if funds were incorrectly paid after services ended. The bill aims to prevent overpayment by ensuring funds align precisely with active service delivery.
