HB1058

House Bill 1058 is an appropriation bill that authorizes the budget, regular salaries, and operating expenses for four specific entities under the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS) for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2027. These entities include the Donald W. Reynolds Center on Aging, the Fay W. Boozman College of Public Health, the Arkansas Biosciences Institute, and the Area Health Education Center in Helena. The bill establishes maximum salary rates and employee counts for various academic and administrative positions within these departments. Funding for these appropriations is primarily sourced from the Targeted State Needs Program Account of the Tobacco Settlement Program Fund. The legislation ensures these facilities have the financial resources required to continue their medical, research, and educational operations during the designated fiscal year.
