Sunflower oil became one popular alternative because it contains a high amount of unsaturated “good” fats that can lower risk for disease. Separately, Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Healthresearchers say an application of sunflower oil may be a lifesaverfor infection-prone infants in the developing world. A sunflower oil massage may add an extra defense to the baby’s skin, protecting it from pathogens.

The current methodology contains two porƟons - fixed levy (shared items) and variable levy (Agency Management, Support, and Overhead (AMSO) and Indirect) - to arrive at a total levy impact.  Fixed Levy (shared items) - calculated by compiling salary and fringe and direct costs from all eight counƟes and then applying exisƟng funding (enhanced funds, RMS, grant contracts, incenƟve funds). Any remaining amount is then divided between the eight counƟes based on caseload, to arrive at their fixed levy requirement. o Fixed levy is calculated and approved during budget; it is not re-calculated at year end based on actual costs. o Unused fixed levy is added to the consorƟum reserve at year end. Fixed levy is not returned to each county.  Variable Levy (AMSO and Indirect) – each county is responsible for their individual fiŌy percent levy match from AMSO, indirect, and the impact of the AMSO adjustment (shared AMSO). o The fiŌy percent match is calculated based off actual costs reported by each county. o AMSO adjustment (shared AMSO) – An AMSO adjustment exists to ensure fairness among counƟes that are maintaining a lower staffing raƟo than recommended by their caseload. If a county is two FTE understaffed according to the calculaƟon, then their AMSO is adjusted to add an addiƟonal amount. This amount is subtracted from a county that is overstaffed according to their caseload. EssenƟally, a county that is maintaining a lower staffing raƟo than their caseload is paying some of the AMSO of the county that is taking on the extra caseload.  The AMSO adjustment is calculated and approved during budget and is not recalculated based on actuals. What assumpƟons are used in this analysis, and what limitaƟons should be considered? AssumpƟons  1.0 Full Time Employee (FTE) will be added to Buffalo, Clark, La Crosse, Monroe, Pepin, and Trempealeau.  New posiƟon salary and fringe were calculated using another posiƟon within the county. o Salary and benefits are likely esƟmated higher than an actual hire would cost.  AMSO and indirect were calculated using the average cost in each county, actual numbers may be different.  All costs were obtained from the 2026 budget. LimitaƟons  All costs are based on esƟmates. They do not reflect the actual impact and should only be used to demonstrate potenƟal impact.  Analysis assumes all six counƟes above will add one FTE. The calculaƟon of the AMSO adjustment (shared AMSO) will be impacted by any changes to this assumpƟon. What is the impact to each County? Based on the above assumpƟons, below are the potenƟal impacts to each county’s total levy requirement: Most counƟes will recognize an addiƟonal levy impact. As the new quality assurance posiƟons are fully funded, levy impacts are Ɵed to each county’s change in AMSO and indirect, as well as any impact to the AMSO adjustment (shared AMSO). What is the benefit of the impact? While the addiƟon of posiƟons shows as an addiƟonal levy requirement for Economic Services in each county, it is a benefit to the overall county because of the fiŌy percent match from income maintenance. Generally, each County’s AMSO methodology is an expense amount divided by the number of FTEs. By increasing the FTE count, it is increasing the amount of AMSO that is going to Economic Support rather than another program, where it is likely 100 percent levy funded. EssenƟally, levy is being shiŌed from one program to another, but whatever amount is shiŌed to Economic Support also recognizes the benefit of fiŌy percent being funded by income maintenance. For example, in the chart below, in Buffalo County there is an addiƟonal $27,032 of AMSO and indirect associated with adding another posiƟon. This is $27,032 that would have been funded with another program in the county, which likely may have been 100 percent levy funded. That amount can now be claimed, and fiŌy percent reimbursed by the income maintenance contract. Buffalo County as a whole could potenƟally recognize $27,032 in levy savings in another program, but only pay $13,516.09 in levy to recognize that savings. This results in the overall County budget recognizing $13,516.09 savings in levy that can now be reimbursed via income maintenance.
