The following is a brief explanation of the changes to this rule:

OAC 5101:2-47-23.1 “Title IV-E agency contracting and contract monitoring” sets forth the requirements when a Title IV-E agency contracts with a private network provider for substitute care placements. Changes were made to paragraphs (F) and (H) to clarify that an addendum can only be added after an "agreement" is in effect. Any additions to the language when creating the initial "agreement" are to be included as an attachment or an exhibit.
