How does thenprogram handle billing with program participants and providers? Our program pays providers directly at their full weekly rate. Payments are issued monthly, and providers are required to submit an invoice that details service/attendance dates for each approved child.
-
Who should I direct billing questions to? Billing questions should be directed to the program staff and not participants. If you have questions regarding invoices and payment status, please email falconhopecenter@daytonastate.edu , our staff will be happy to provide available information.
-
How will providers know a student is approved through the program? Students are required to complete a funding agreement each semester, sign an annual childcare policy, and maintain program requirements to be approved or renewed for services. The program sepcialist will email the daycare director and/or billing staff with an award letter as students are approved for assistance.
-
What should I do if a student/child is approved but is not attending? Per our daycare absence policy signed by each student, participants are required to report daycare absences to both the program and provider. The program will not be responsible for payment if the child is absent from daycare for extended periods of time (i.e. vacation or extended illness) or absences that have not been documented or approved to be excused.
The program maintains the right to approve 3 days of excused absences during the month. Documentation for any absences must be provided to the CCAMPIS program staff for discretionary approval.
If a child has not been attending for more than 3 days, please contact the program immediately by emailing falconhopecenter@daytonastate.edu
-
What should I do if the weekly childcare rate increases during the service period? Providers are expected to adhere to the weekly rate specified in the award letter. If the weekly rate becomes greater than what was originally approved, the provider must email the program with the new rate information and effective start date so that a budget adjustment can be reviewed and completed. Failure to contact the program may result in payment delays if a budget increase is necessary.
-
What documentation will providers need to submit to the program to remain active? Providers are required to sign a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) each academic year as well as supply current copies of their childcare license, accreditation certificate, childcare rates, and liability insurance. The liability insurance must list Daytona State College as an additional insured per the MOU and college policy.
-
What if I am not accredited but interested in the process, can I become a provider? Childcare facilities must meet all applicable state or local government licensing, certification, approval, or registration requirements. Facilities under this program must have a plan to become accredited within three (3) years of the date the institution receives funding or have a CLASS score of 4.00 or higher.
