Section 626.2 - Conditions for reimbursement for federally reimbursed AFDC

(a) No portion of any claim for reimbursement for federally reimbursed AFDC may be supported solely with State funds if reimbursement may be claimed from a program for which Federal participation is available.

(b) Any claims for reimbursement from any portion of a program or activity for which there is Federal participation which were not fully reimbursed as claimed and which were properly made at the time they were originally claimed may be reclaimed as expenses for which Federal participation is available if such claims were appropriate when originally submitted, provided the revised claim is timely and an adjustment to reduce the original claim is simultaneously submitted to the department.

(c) Any claims for reimbursement for federally reimbursed AFDC which are subsequently determined by the department to be reimbursable from, or for which reimbursement is actually received or credited from, another program for which Federal participation could be received, shall be reduced in an amount equivalent to the amount determined by the department to be due as a result of the availability of Federal participation.

(d) Claims for reimbursement for federally reimbursed AFDC shall not be submitted if such claims seek reimbursement at rates or amounts that are greater than otherwise permitted by the department.

(e) Any adjustments of claims for reimbursement, including adjustments to claims as a result of recoveries or collections, shall be made in accordance with procedures, instructions or directions of the department.
