To qualify for the weekly unit type, the parent's schedule must require more than four hours of care each day and at least 15 days and no more than 23 days per month. The child MUST attend the minimum number of full-time days for that calendar month before OKDHS pays an absent day payment. When the child does not attend the minimum number of full-time days for that calendar month, OKDHS pays only for the days the child attended. The chart below shows the minimum number of full-time days a child must attend the child care facility before qualifying for an absent day payment and the maximum days that will be paid. OKDHS pays the weekly unit type at the full-time daily rate for the number of days the child attends more than four hours. Absent day payments are included in the payment received after the tenth day of the following month. The maximum number of days paid is based upon the number of days in the month minus eight.
