February 27, 2014
TO: All Child Care Manual Holders
FROM: Cynthia C. Dungey, Director
SUBJECT: Family Copayment Calculation Definition and Eligibility Policy Language Simplification

Background:

The Office of Family Assistance has amended the publicly funded child care eligibility and copayment rules in Chapter 5101:2-16 of the Ohio Administrative Code. These rules will be effective March 2, 2014.

New Policy:

Rule 5101:2-16-30 "Eligibility requirements for receipt of publicly funded child

care benefits" has been rescinded and replaced as new to simplify and clarify policy relating to publicly funded child care.

Rule 5101:2-16-39 "Copayment for publicly funded child care benefits" has been rescinded and replaced as new to simplify and clarify language and define the calculation of weekly copayments. The appendix to the rule containing the copayment chart has been removed as an appendix and will be added to the child care manual as a desk aid. A new appendix has been added to assist in the calculation of the weekly copayment.

Please contact the Child Care Policy Helpdesk at 1-877-302-2347, option 4, if you have any questions.
