In compliance with the State's Administrative Procedures Act (APA - Title 29, Chapter 101 of the Delaware Code) and under the authority of
Title 31 of the Delaware Code, Chapter 5, Section 512, Delaware Health and Social Services (DHSS) / Division of Social Services is proposing to amend policies in the Division of Social Services Manual (DSSM) regarding the Child Care Subsidy Program, specifically,
Provider Reimbursement.
Accordingly, DSSM 11006.4,
Provider Reimbursement is amended reflecting minor language changes. Additionally, this regulatory action removes the Delaware Child Care Provider Rate chart and the Child Care Income Limits chart from the Division of Social Services Manual (DSSM). The provider rate chart will be posted on the Division of Social Services’ (DSS) website. The income limits chart is already on the DSS website.
Payment will be made only for the number of days and type of authorization indicated on individual Form 618d the child’s authorization notice and in accordance with absent day policy. Reimbursement rates differ for
children under the age of two and children two years of age and older each type of child care setting.
