§ 100390 General Fund Advance Reimbursement
This law lets the finance director and controller approve a plan that lets the department pay certain health‑related costs from the General Fund first, then get those dollars back from the federal or special funds later.
A county health department needs to buy vaccines that are paid for by a federal health grant, but the money isn’t in the grant account yet.
The department can use money from the General Fund to buy the vaccines now, then later ask the federal grant to pay the General Fund back for that amount.
Reimbursement = Total expenditures that are a proper charge against the Public Health Federal Fund (or a special fund) but were paid from the General Fund
The department spends $75,000 on a federally funded disease‑prevention program, paying from the General Fund because the federal money isn’t available yet.
Result: Reimbursement = $75,000 transferred back to the General Fund from the Public Health Federal Fund.
