Slight Reduction to HMIS End User Fees
MN HMIS End User Fees have historically been an essential part of the MN HMIS budget. Feedback from communities and agencies across the state prompted the HMIS Finance Committee to take an in depth look at MN’s User Fee structure and overall cost. A great deal of time was spent examining this issue: alternative structures, reducing fees, cost to the system as a whole, etc. After a lot of discussion and debate the Finance Committee recommended a reduction to User Fees overall but not a change to the Fee structure for the coming year. This recommendation was adopted by the HMIS Interim Governing Board on March 13, 2017. Effective September 1, 2017 End User Fees for MN HMIS be reduced from $250 to $225 for the 9/1/17-8/31/18 budget cycle.
