10:15-10.3 Payment methods

(a) Vendor payments to providers are the primary method for issuing child care payments for the DFD voucher programs. Under this method, a voucher is issued by the CCR&R to the child care provider after the completion of an agreement. The completion of this agreement permits the provider to receive an initial prospective monthly payment in NJCK or receive payment in accordance with WFNJ and TCC payment methods, which are identified in N.J.A.C. 10:15-3.3(b). To receive payments, the provider shall complete the voucher form and return it to the CCR&R. Upon review and authorization of the voucher information, the CCR&R shall issue a child care payment to the provider for all vouchers which have been received no later than 60 days from the end of the designated service period or 60 days from the date of voucher issuance, whichever is later. Should the provider fail to submit a completed voucher form for receipt by the CCR&R within the established period, the identified payment for services claimed on the voucher shall be subject to forfeiture. (b) In exceptional or emergency situations, payment for WFNJ and TCC child care provided may be made directly to the participant. As with the child care voucher, payment shall be issued upon verification of the child's attendance and care provided. (c) The TCC payments shall be issued on a bi-weekly retrospective basis.
