Face-to-face Rate Billing | |
|
Regarding “Family Preparation”: Will the “presenting” a case (home study) to a SNAP meeting be a “:billable” unit(s)? |
Unless a family member is present at the meeting, the cost for these meetings should be built into the proposed face-to-face rate; the meeting will not be a separate payment point. |
|
Under adoption family preparation, the hourly billable rate is for face to face, direct contact. How are contractors to be paid for required attendance at regional SNAP meetings and at the SNAP Council meetings in Indianapolis? Will this be a separate payment point? |
|
|
Under Family Preparation, who pays for the separate costs of all Criminal history, CPS, Sex Offender and FBI checks? If a family has lived anywhere other than the immediate county, these can be very costly and very time consuming. If agencies are required to collect this information, will there be a Dollar for Dollar reimbursement for the costs? |
Costs should be built into the proposed face-to-face rate; if that proposed rate is above the maximum, a budget and written justification must be included in the proposal. |
|
Are the fees associated with the required Fingerprinting and background checks reimbursable through the IVB contract, the responsibility of the client, or are these expenses expected to be absorbed by the contractor? |
The expense could be built into your billing rate. |
