​CCAP Payment Information

Payments will continue be paid based on enrollment rather than attendance. A 30-day notice will be given prior to the end of this initiative. Families are still responsible for any overages assessed by the provider.

All licensed, certified and registered providers will submit the billing form blank, unless the prefilled codes do not accurately reflect the child’s schedule and an exception needs to be made. Exclusions to this rule are listed in the Flex Schedules and ITCS Centers sections.​

Flex Schedules
​All flex schedule enrollments will need to be coded according to the child’s actual attendance using codes 1 and 2. If a flex schedule billing form is left blank, payment will not occur. 

Infant/Toddler Contract Slot Centers
Infant/toddler contract slot (ITCS) participants will need to use the special 700 codes when submitting the billing form to ensure correct payments. The 700 codes should be used only for children/slots enrolled in the ITCS program. ​
Important Copay Information
Previously the Division of Child Care (DCC)​ stated the parent co​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​payments would stop​ effective December 31, 2023. A decision has been made to continue covering the assessed copayment. A 30-day notice will be given prior to the end of this initiative. Families are still responsible for any overages assessed by the provider.​

DCC-94E Daily Attendance Record

The DCC-94E​​, Child Care Daily Attendance Record, has been modified to include more room for a parent or designated person’s signature. This will allow enough space for a signature that is recorded legibly with a first and last name, per 922 KAR 2:160, Section 14.  ​

New Communication
