The department of job and family services may enter into contracts with one or more other state agencies or political subdivisions to have the state agency or political subdivision administer one or more components of the medicaid program, or one or more aspects of a component, under the department’s supervision. A state agency or political subdivision that enters into such a contract shall comply with the terms of the contract and any rules the director of job and family services has adopted governing the component, or aspect of the component, that the state agency or political subdivision is to administer, including any rules establishing review, audit, and corrective action plan requirements. A contract with a state agency shall be in the form of an interagency agreement.

A state agency or political subdivision that enters into a contract with the department under this section shall reimburse the department for the nonfederal share of the cost to the department of performing, or contracting for the performance of, a fiscal audit of the component of the medicaid program, or aspect of the component, that the state agency or political subdivision administers if rules governing the component, or aspect of the component, require that a fiscal audit be conducted.

There is hereby created in the state treasury the medicaid administrative reimbursement fund. The department shall use money in the fund to pay for the nonfederal share of the cost of a fiscal audit for which a state agency or political subdivision is required by this section to reimburse the department. The department shall deposit the reimbursements into the fund.
