Group: Health & Human Services - Department of Human Services

Agency: ISF - Human Services

Line Item: ISF - DHS Internal Service Funds

Function

The Department of Human Services operates two internal service funds (ISF) that provide services to the department.

General Services collects funds from the divisions for building maintenance and rent for the department's main office in Salt Lake City.

Data Processing is an account used to distribute cost for programming services. With the passage of House Bill 109, Information Technology Governance Amendments (2005 General Session), data processing was consolidated into the Department of Technology Services including the transfer of 33 full time equivalent (FTE) employees from this internal service fund.

Statutory Authority

The departmental internal service funds are not listed specifically in statute. However, UCS 63J-1-306 places the following legislative controls on the operation of internal service funds:

  • All internal service fund budgets must be approved by the Legislature.
  • The number of full time permanent positions must be approved for each internal service fund.
  • The Legislature must approve all capital acquisitions made by an internal service fund.
  • No capital assets can be transferred to an internal service fund without Legislative approval.
  • Rate structures must be approved by the Legislature.
  • Working capital must be acquired in the following order: first from operating revenues, second from long-term debt, and lastly from appropriation.
  • Borrowing from the General Fund (long term debt) is allowed as long as "the debt is repaid over the useful life of the asset and borrowing does not exceed 90 percent of the net value of the capital assets."

Funding Detail

The department's internal service funds are funded by dedicated credits from other agencies within the department.
