This procedure letter (PL) transmits proposed revisions to the reimbursement process for the JFS 01350, "Foster Caregiver Training Stipend, Recommending Agency Training Allowance Invoice and requirements for provider information entry into SACWIS."
The following is a brief explanation of the proposed changes:
- Beginning with the training session date of March 1, 2012, all PCPAs and PNAs must process the stipend and allowance reimbursement through the State Automated Child Welfare Information System (SACWIS). Any invoices for training session dates prior to March 1, 2012 must be submitted via the JFS 01350 for reimbursement.
- All data entry into the Fostercare Resource Education Database (FRED) ended on February 29, 2012. After this date, FRED will be "read-only" and the training sessions must be entered into SACWIS by the recommending PCPAs and PNAs.
- Beginning March 1, 2012, all PCPAs and PNAs must also enter acceptance characteristics and placement criteria into SACWIS.
