injuries, or if serious threats to worker safety continue, then the director shall communicate

taking leave, an employee shall give reasonable notice to the employee's supervisor of the
employee's intent to use leave under this subchapter. Use of such leave must be scheduled

benefits, if any, at the level and under the conditions coverage would have been provided
if the employee had continued working continuously for the duration of leave.
9. Treatment of self-employed individuals. Subsection 8 does not apply to a self-
employed individual taking family leave or medical leave under this subchapter or to a

the effective date of this subchapter to apply any of the rights and responsibilities under
this subchapter until the existing collective bargaining agreement expires.
11. Concurrent with leave under state and federal law. Leave taken under this
subchapter runs concurrently with leave taken under the federal Family and Medical Leave
Act of 1993, 29 United States Code, Section 2611, et seq., and under subchapter 6-A.
Employees may take leave under this subchapter while ineligible for leave under the federal
Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993 in the same benefit year.
12. Employer policy may not waive employee rights. An employer policy adopted
or retained on or after the effective date of this subchapter may not diminish an employee's
right to benefits under this subchapter. Any agreement by an employee to waive the
employee's rights under this subchapter is against public policy and is void and
unenforceable.
§850-C. Payment of benefits
1. Waiting period for medical leave. Medical leave benefits are not payable during
the first 7 calendar days of the leave, except that an employee may use accrued sick or
Page 326 - 131LR2411(14)
vacation pay or other paid leave provided under a collective bargaining agreement or
employer policy during the first 7 calendar days of the leave.

of the state average weekly wage must be replaced at a rate of 66% up to the maximum
weekly benefit.

calculated under subsection 2 is the state average weekly wage. By January 1st of the year
in which claims begin being processed and annually thereafter, the department shall take
into consideration the recommendation of the authority to adjust the maximum weekly
benefit amount as necessary, and the adjusted maximum weekly benefit amount takes effect
on January 1st of the year following the adjustment. The authority shall recommend
adjusting the maximum benefit amount in order to maintain the solvency of the fund at a
level of at least the annualized amount described in section 850-E, subsection 3.
4. Prorated benefit. If a covered individual takes family leave or medical leave on
an intermittent or reduced leave schedule, the weekly benefit amount must be prorated as

Security Act, 42 United States Code, Section 1320d-6.

1. Program established. The Housing First Program, referred to in this section as "the

stabilization services to residents of properties established or developed to provide
permanent housing to address chronic homelessness in the State. Except as otherwise
provided in this section, services facilitated under the program must be available on site,
24 hours per day and be designed to build independent living skills and connect individuals
with community-based services. The department shall ensure that reimbursement under
the MaineCare program is available to providers under the Housing First Program to the
maximum extent possible. For the purposes of this section, "chronic homelessness" means
a situation in which a person is living in a place not meant for human habitation, including
emergency shelters, for at least 12 months and for whom homelessness is correlated with a
condition that makes accessing services and maintaining housing a significant challenge
such as substance use disorder or a behavioral health condition. "Chronic homelessness"
Page 358 - 131LR2411(14)
includes a situation in which a person has been living intermittently in an institutional care
facility, including but not limited to jail or a health treatment facility, but is otherwise living
in a place not meant for human habitation.
2. Fund established. The Housing First Fund, referred to in this section as "the fund,"
is established as a separate and distinct fund for accounting and budgetary reporting
purposes in order to support the program. Funds distributed in accordance with this section
must be used to supplement, not supplant, existing or future federal funding designed to
provide services associated with services provided by the program under subsections 1 and
5, including but not limited to the MaineCare program and the housing outreach and
member engagement provider program administered by the department.

properties established or developed to provide permanent housing to persons
experiencing chronic homelessness. Supportive services must include coordination

established payment models at each property for services provided under the program
in the current fiscal year and the anticipated amount needed to pay for 24-hour, on-site
services expected to be provided at each property in the next fiscal year. Funds in
excess of those amounts must be transferred to the Maine State Housing Authority for
the purposes of:
(1) Providing technical assistance to housing developers to help with capital and
planning issues associated with developing properties consistent with the housing
model established by the program and as described in subsection 5; and
(2) Developing affordable housing projects with a housing model established by
the program and as described in subsection 5.
5. Housing stability services. The department shall establish a payment model to
provide funds to pay for the costs of housing stability services provided to residents at
Page 359 - 131LR2411(14)
properties under the program where supportive services are not necessarily provided on
site or 24 hours per day. Services funded under this subsection must be available to
residents no less than 20 hours per week and must adequately meet the needs of the
residents to build independent living skills, to maintain housing and to access necessary
community-based services. Housing stability services funded under this subsection may
also include outreach to persons who are experiencing chronic homelessness for the
purposes of establishing connections and providing support that may result in securing
stable housing at a property under the program.
6. Rulemaking. The department and the Maine State Housing Authority shall jointly
adopt rules to administer the program. The rules must specify which elements of the
program are administered by the department, which elements are administered by the
Maine State Housing Authority and which elements are administered jointly, if any. Rules
adopted under this subsection are routine technical rules under Title 5, chapter 375,
subchapter 2-A.
7. Report. Beginning February 1, 2025, the department and the Maine State Housing
Authority shall submit a report annually to the joint standing committee or joint select
committee of the Legislature having jurisdiction over housing matters to provide the
committee with necessary data and information to evaluate the effectiveness of the
program. The initial report submitted to the committee must provide an assessment of the
number of housing units and the scope of services needed to serve persons who are
experiencing chronic homelessness to serve as a baseline against which the effectiveness
of the program and other services will be measured. Subsequent reports must provide
updates to that assessment in addition to the following:
A. An accounting of the services facilitated using money from the fund at properties
that provide 24-hour, on-site services and properties that provide housing stability
services described under subsection 5;

chapter 375, subchapter 2-A.
Sec. LLLLL-2. Home and community-based lifespan program. The
Department of Health and Human Services shall establish a MaineCare home and
community-based lifespan program for individuals with intellectual and developmental
disabilities, autism or other related conditions pursuant to the Maine Revised Statutes, Title

Services, Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services to implement the lifespan program.
The goals of the lifespan program are to:

persons who provide support to that member get older, without needing to move from one
waiver program to another;
2. Seamless transitions. Expand upon the department's current childhood-to-
adulthood transition initiatives by including children beginning at 14 years of age and
enable smooth transitions at later life stages;
3. Early planning for independence. Emphasize in-home supports, independent
living skills and employment services for youth to prepare them for as much independence
as possible in adulthood;
4. Innovation. Include service innovations currently under development, such as tiered
shared living, standardized assessment of need, enhanced medical and behavioral health
supports, self-direction, innovative employment supports, independent living options and
remote support technology, including models of support that can be successfully
implemented with a smaller workforce; and

to promote quality and efficiency and reduce the administrative burden for service
providers and the department.
Sec. LLLLL-3. Relationship to existing programs. The Department of Health
and Human Services shall implement the lifespan program in 2 phases. The target group

community-based services programs under rule Chapter 101: MaineCare Benefits Manual,
Chapter II, Section 21 or 29 and children beginning at 14 years of age who would meet all
other eligibility criteria for Section 21 or 29 except age. The target group for phase 2 of
the lifespan program may include adults who would qualify for home and community-
based services programs under rule Chapter 101: MaineCare Benefits Manual, Chapter II,
Section 20 and children beginning at 14 years of age who would meet all other eligibility
Page 381 - 131LR2411(14)
criteria for Section 20 except age. When the lifespan program opens for phase 1
enrollment, new enrollment under Sections 21 and 29 will be closed. Members who are
enrolled under Section 21 or 29 when enrollment is closed have the option of continuing in
their current program or applying for enrollment in the lifespan program during phase 2.
Individuals who are on a waiting list for enrollment under Section 21 or 29 when the
lifespan program opens will be transferred to the lifespan program waiting list.
Sec. LLLLL-4. Appropriations. Any appropriations made for the lifespan
program may be used for purposes of the Department of Health and Human Services rule
Chapter 101: MaineCare Benefits Manual, Chapter II, Section 29 until the lifespan program
opens for enrollment. When the lifespan program opens for enrollment, any unused
appropriations for reserve slots in rule Chapter 101: MaineCare Benefits Manual, Chapter
II, Section 21 must be used for the lifespan program for the same purpose. When the
lifespan program opens for enrollment, any appropriations for Section 21 or 29 that become
available as a result of attrition of enrollment under Section 21 or 29 must be used for the
lifespan program to expand access in that program.
