The Ohio Department of Job and family Services (ODJFS) Office of Child Support (OCS) is providing additional state funding to assist with the cost of processing new Medicaid referrals in SETS.

The allocation for each county is based on the maximum number of new referrals received from Medicaid for SETS assignment. In order to claim expenditures for the new allocation, CSEAs will move expenditures (the 34% match) from Child Support State Match to Child Support State Match Special Project through the post-allocated adjustment (PAA) process. BCFTA will establish PAA coding and notify counties once budgets have been established.

Funding will be available January 1, 2017 to June 30, 2017 for CSEAs to establish Medicaid assignments in SETS based on new referrals. The PAA process must be completed by the end of the April-June reporting period.
