7.1.2 REQUESTS FOR PAYMENT
A request for payment will be honored only if the provider has been authorized by the Child Care Scholarship Program to serve the child. The authorization for each Child Care Scholarship Program child gives the dates of approved child care services for a child. It is the provider’s responsibility to maintain this information and bill only for eligible weeks. A provider will not be paid for a child who is not enrolled for 3 consecutive weeks. Child care providers are still responsible for notifying the Child Care Scholarship Program when a child is no longer enrolled with their program. The provider may call the Child Care Scholarship Control center to drop children, may email ProviderQuestions@dss.sc.gov or may drop the children on their SVL. Completing an SVL correctly the first time will ensure payment within 10-14 working days after receipt of the information. NOTE: Payments for services over one year old will not be honored.
