Miscellaneous Payments - To a Secondary Vendor 415-35-20-15-15
(Revised 10/00 ML #2629)
A miscellaneous payment will always be used if a payment is to be made to a secondary vendor. This might occur if the household switched vendors during the heating season, or if the household uses more than one type of fuel to heat the home, or pays a coal company and coal hauler separately. (Use service code for coal when paying a hauler.)
NOTE: If the designated primary vendor supplied more than one type of fuel during the heating season, it is NOT necessary to use a miscellaneous payment for the secondary heating fuel. As long as the delivery was made during the authorization period, and the secondary fuel type is coded on the Household Data Record, the primary vendor can bill that delivery on the computer "Request for Payment" as he would any other delivery made within the authorization period.
Payments to the secondary vendor are entered on Option F, "Miscellaneous or Emergency" screen. The primary vendor will use the computer printout, "Request for Payment" to make direct billings to the state. The code for Payment type (01) and the vendor ID of the primary vendor will be entered the same on the computer as already outlined in 415-35-10.
