THINGS TO REMEMBER.......
Parent Share of Cost (PSOC)
The parent share of cost (PSOC) is calculated on a weekly basis and is determined by the family’s gross monthly income and family size. CCS providers must collect the PSOC from the family by each provider's designated collection method. If a family fails to pay a PSOC to a CCS provider, the CCS provider must report the instance to the Workforce Solutions Child Care Services office by phone or email within 3 business days after the due date of the missed payment.
Attendance Expectations
All CCS providers have attendance rules. If a child is not attending care regularly, families are not signing their child(ren) in and out of care every day, or other issues arise regarding attendance, CCS providers must reach out to their Workforce Solutions Child Care Services office by phone or email to report this information.
Reporting Provider Changes
CCS providers must inform the Board by phone or email 3 business days in advance of provider changes as stated in the CCS Provider Agreement. These changes may include but not limited to change in ownership, location, or facility/permit type which will require a new Provider Agreement to be signed.
