Universal Citation: 7 AK Admin Code 41.250

Current through August 30, 2024

(a) A participating provider shall submit a request for payment and any corrections to that request to the department or to the designee, on a form prescribed by the department. A request for payment must be submitted on or before the last day of the month immediately following the month in which child care services were provided. If the department determines that a request for payment includes information that is incorrect or incomplete, the department may obtain the correct or missing information or will return the request to the provider. The department will not make payment for a request for payment that has been returned as incorrect or incomplete unless the department receives the correct or missing information on or before the last day of the month following the month in which the department returned the request. Exceptions to this subsection are as follows:

(1) PASS 11 payments may be made outside the time frames in this subsection for a parent transitioning from PASS I to PASS II, if necessary to avoid a break in service;

(2) a provider may submit a request for payment if a family's program approval and authorization for care are issued after the child begins to receive care from the provider; if an authorization is issued beyond the time described in this subsection, the provider shall submit a request for payment within 30 days after issuance of the family authorization for care to be considered timely for payment processing.

(b) Payment will be based on the lesser of the rate the provider charges under 7 AAC 41.245 or the program rate established under 7 AAC 41.025.

(c) A registration fee may only he paid to a licensed child care provider described in 7 AAC 41,200(a)(1) in a month in which a child attends at least one day.

(d) Care will be paid on a full month or part month enrollment basis, based on the program rate established under 7 AAC 41.025, except when additional attendance days are authorized, not to exceed the state maximum child care assistance payment under 7 AAC 41.025(d).
