CCMPL 5 (Eligibility, Co-Payment and Reimbursement)
Child Care Manual Procedure Letter No. 5
September 29, 1999
TO: All Child Care Manual Users
FROM: Jacqueline Romer-Sensky, Director
SUBJECT: Procedures Regarding Child Care Eligibility, Copayments and Provider Reimbursement

This letter establishes procedures regarding child care eligibility, copayments and provider reimbursement, effective September 29, 1999, due to the implementation of Am. Sub. H.B. 283.

1.Pursuant to sections 5104.34 and 5104.38 of the Revised Code, families who are determined eligible on or after September 29, 1999, shall be given a twelve month eligibility period, and their copayment shall be assessed using the new copayment table contained in this procedure letter. Redeterminations shall occur every twelve months, and the copayment shall be in effect for the family's entire twelve-month eligibility period unless the recipient reports a change in family income, family size, or both, resulting in a reduction to the family copayment, or the family ceases to be eligible for child care benefits.

2.Pursuant to sections 5104.34 and 5104.38 of the Revised Code, families who were determined eligible before September 29, 1999, shall be redetermined no later than the end of their current six month eligibility period. Families shall be given a twelve month eligibility period at the time of redetermination, providing they are eligible for child care benefits, and their copayment shall be assessed using the new copayment table. Redeterminations shall occur every twelve months, and the copayment shall be in effect for the family's entire twelve-month eligibility period unless the recipient reports a change resulting in a reduction to the copayment, or the family ceases to be eligible for child care benefits.

The new copayment table reduces the maximum fee from three children in care to two children in care. All families with more than two children in care will be required to pay a copayment for only two children.

3.Pursuant to section 5104.30 of the Revised Code, the CDHS shall pay eligible type B home providers with limited certification, a reimbursement rate that is the greater of the rate that was in effect for the home on October 1, 1997, or seventy-five per cent of the reimbursement ceiling for type B home providers with professional certification.

4.Pursuant to section 5104.32 of the Revised Code, for each six-month period that a provider provides care to a child, the CDHS shall reimburse the provider up to ten absentee days. At the option of the CDHS, it may reimburse a provider a greater number of absentee days, when the provider would have provided care had the child been present.

This CCMPL transmits information regarding changes in statute that become effective September 29, 1999. While these procedures have yet to be promulgated in rule, ODHS recognizes that the Ohio Revised Code takes precedence over provisions in the Ohio Administrative Code. This information is being provided while the Department follows the regular rule making process in order for CDHSs to comply with the full intent of the legislation cited above. If you have any questions regarding these procedures, please contact County Technical Support at (614) 466-7762.
