REMINDER: BOCES Verification Guidance for 2016-17 10-Month Enrollment
As the STAC and Medicaid Unit prepares to begin its in-depth review of High Cost Public records for the 1617 enrollment year where a BOCES was the education provider, we are reminding districts of the following:
- The 10-Month Annualized Cost verified on the DVPUB screen should match the 10-Month Annualized Cost column from the BOCES year-end final cost report.
- The start and end dates verified on the DVPUB screen should match the start and end dates listed on the BOCES year-end final cost report. If the BOCES year-end final cost report reflects enrollment dates based on full months, school districts should verify using the students' actual enrollment dates.
- If the student received additional services that were not included on the BOCES year-end final cost report, and this resulted in a verified 10-Month Annualized Cost exceeding the amount from the BOCES year-end final cost report, districts are required to complete a DCPUB worksheet in order to qualify for the additional reimbursement.
In order to expedite review for timely payment, please review your 1617 BOCES 10-Month verifications to make sure the records were verified in accordance with the guidance above.
If you are unsure which BOCES report to use a reference, please refer to the following document:
