CCMTL 110 (Rule and Form Changes - Provider Agreement for Payment of Publicly Funded Child Care)
Child Care Manual Transmittal Letter No. 110
May 26, 2011
TO: All Child Care Manual Holders
FROM: Michael B. Colbert, Director
SUBJECT: Rule and Form Changes - Provider Agreement for Payment of Publicly Funded Child Care

This letter transmits revisions to the child care provider agreement rule and the forms on the ODJFS CCIDS Provider Portal. These changes are being made due to the development and implementation of the Ohio Electronic Child Care (ECC) system. The revised forms will collect information and data needed to calculate and issue provider payments for publicly funded child care.

The following rule has been amended and is effective June 1, 2011:

5101:2-16-44 entitled "Provider Agreement for Payment of Publicly Funded Child Care" has been revised to clarify language and to delete form references. Providers will use the ODJFS CCIDS Provider Portal, which includes instructions and all required documents needed to enter into an agreement with ODJFS for payment.

The following forms have been revised. These forms are accessed only through the online ODJFS CCIDS Provider Portal and are being removed from the child care manual.

JFS 01141 "Banking Information For Providers of Publicly Funded Child Care" has been revised to clarify information.

JFS 01144 "Provider Agreement For Publicly Funded Child Care Services" has been revised to clarify information and to include language for the Ohio ECC module.

JFS 01150 "Rate Information For Providers of Publicly Funded Child Care" has been revised to clarify information and to remove fields that will be captured on the Ohio ECC provider website that is being developed to calculate payment.

Please contact the Help Desk for the Office of Families and Children at 1-866-886-3537, option 4 if you have any questions.
