NDDHS, as a purchaser of services, will establish a daily rate per NDAC 75-03-15, “Rate Setting for Providers of Services to Foster Children Group Home and Residential Child Care Facilities", for all licensed/approved North Dakota RCCF’s
RCCF foster care maintenance rates include resident room and board, food, care, clothing, personal supplies, education, recreation, child service related transportation, medical expenses outside of child insurance coverage, liability insurance coverage, utilities, etc.
During a child’s placement in a group home or RCCF, reimbursement may be available for eligible families to facilitate reunification efforts. Funding may be provided to cover the costs of the family expenses, meals, lodging, occasionally mileage, or commercial transportation as outlined in the irregular payment categories. North Dakota will reimburse allowable travel expenses to the facility with consideration of actual costs, not to exceed state per diem rates. Costs will be reimbursed based on North Dakota in-state rates, even if travel is to another state facility. Commercial transportation will be reimbursed at the actual rate. The facility and custodial case manager are expected to seek the lowest possible rate when commercial transportation is required.
For foster care billing purposes, these costs are considered a reunification cost and entered as an irregular payment in CCWIPS, Category 50, Code 52. Refer to CCWIPS User Manual for technical assistance related to entering irregular foster care payments in the payment system.
Verification of expenditures are required and must be retained for audit purposes.
