(5) Administrative Adjustment for Extraordinary Circumstances. A purchasing governmental unit may request an adjustment to the published rates to reflect increases in per diem operating costs due to unusual and unforeseen circumstances or extraordinary client service requirements not considered in the development of the current rates. Unusual and unforeseen circumstances are events of a serious nature that affect program operations or viability to the extent that there exists a threat to the stability of service provision such that client or consumer access to necessary services is at risk. The purchasing governmental unit evaluates the need for the administrative adjustment, identifies the duration of the need, determines whether funding is available, and conveys that information to EOHHS for review to determine the amount of any adjustment.
