|
|
The purpose of this communication is to provide specific direction,as well as to request payment information,regarding the minimum payment requirements for Maximum State Aid Rates (MSARs)as specified in the State Fiscal Year (SFY)2005-06 enacted State Budget. The new minimum payment requirements, pursuant to Section 398-a (2-a)of the Social Services Law (SSL), prohibit local social services districts (local districts)from paying less than the MSARs established by the Office of Children and Family Services (OCFS)for foster care programs operated by voluntary agencies,with the exception of two types of program rates. The administrative/services rates established by OCFS for the regular foster boarding home programs operated by voluntary agencies are exempt from the minimum payment requirements,as are the pass-through rates established by OCFS for foster parents in regular,therapeutic,special needs,or emergency foster boarding home programs.All other MSARs established by OCFS are affected by this new provision of law,which means the MSAR established for each congregate care rate and for each administrative/services rate for a therapeutic,special needs,or emergency foster home program.
