    Job Aid: Closed Case Payment Status as of 8/2/2014

    Michigan Statewide Automated Child Welfare Information System

    Since August 2, 2014, MiSACWIS users have been able to make payments on closed cases. Workers do not need to hold a case open while waiting on a vendor invoice to process payments.

    You will complete the steps necessary to add information to MiSACWIS for the payment. There are two procedures for making a payment on a closed case:

    • Making a DHS 93 payment

    • Making a payment for all other case services

    Each of these procedures is described below:

    Making a DHS 93 Payment If you are making a DHS 93 payment, follow this process:

    1. First, the worker creates the case service.

    2. A DHS Supervisor approves the case service. When the case service is approved, a service authorization is generated by MiSACWIS.

    Note A DHS supervisor can approve the case service and service authorization either before or after case closure. Steps 2 and 3 can be done in any order.

    3. The worker closes the case.

    Note A DHS supervisor can approve the case service and service authorization either before or after case closure. Step #s 2 and 3 can be done in any order.

    Create case service

    Approve case service

    Close case

    Link service auth to manual

    payment request

    Job Aid: Closed Case Payment Status as of 8/2/2014

    Michigan Statewide Automated Child Welfare Information System

    4. The worker or DHS Supervisor links the service authorization to the manual payment request. Once linked to a manual payment request, MiSACWIS will generate the payment.

    Making a Payment for All Other Case Services If you are making a payment for any other case service, follow this process:

    1. Following case closure, a worker creates a manual payment request for a case service and links

    the provider and child for the given period.

    2. After the nightly batch run, a DHS Supervisor approves the payment on the payment roster.

    Note This is done because there was no approved service authorization and a payment must be approved prior to payment.

    3. MiSACWIS automatically routes the payment to a Federal Compliance Division (FCD) roster. This roster includes all manual payment requests for case services needing FCD staff approval.

    Close case

    Create manual payment request for case service

    and link provider and child

    Approve payment on payment roster after nightly batch

  • Job Aid: Completing a DHS-93 for an Open/Active Investigation

    Michigan Statewide Automated Child Welfare Information System

    The CPS investigator will need to complete the steps in this job aid if there is a need to pay for case service. These services may include drug screens, to pay for a sexual abuse exam or other services. From the Investigation Tasks Tab screen, the CPS investigator will have to link their investigation to a case to obtain case level access to complete a DHS-93. CPS investigators will only create new cases when the family did not have a case in SWSS or MiSACWIS. For families known in SWSS, the CPS investigator will link their investigations to an existing MiSACWIS case that converted from SWSS. Note: Please refer to the MiSACWIS Training exercise book, pages 43- 44 in the Investigation and Assessments portion for help on how to link your investigation to a case.

    1. The CPS investigator will click on the hyperlink titled: Link Investigation to Case. Investigation Tasks Screen

    2. After linking your open/active investigation to a case, you will be able to see the investigation/case name in the Investigation and Ongoing lists on your workload screen.

    3. Select the Case ID from the case listed under Ongoing.

    Job Aid: DHS 93 Closed Case Security User Group

    Michigan Statewide Automated Child Welfare Information System

    DHS Child Protective Services, Foster Care, and Child Welfare Funding Specialist supervisors are now able to approve DHS 93 payments on closed cases. There is a new security profile in MiSACWIS called “DHS93 Override Security Profile.” This profile was added in order to process payments on closed and converted cases where DHS 93 manual payments have not been made.

    The processes in this job aid must only be used for the following two conditions:

    1. There is an available service authorization to link on a closed CPS case, but conversion did not correctly create the CPS Program Type History.

    2. The worker did not create a DHS 93 case service and authorization prior to case closure.

    Creating Manual Payments where a Service Authorization Exists without a CPS Program Type History

    Each step in the flow is described below:

    Create manual payment

    Before you begin

    Be sure you verify the case’s program type history. When you create the payment request, you’ll need to enter a payment date that falls between the end dates of the applicable program types. If the case has an open ended program type, you’ll want to create the payment between the open ended program type date and the date of the previously end dated program type.

    1. Navigate to Financial > Payment > Manual Payment Request.

    2. Link the provider, person, and service authorization to the payment.

    3. On the Manual Payment Request screen, enter the number of Units being billed, the Payment Start Date, and Payment End Date.

    Calculate payment request

    4. Click Calculate to calculate the total amount for the payment request.

    5. Enter comments in the Comments box. If the program type history did not convert properly, type the correct payment dates into the Comments box.

    Note

    To support the payment request, you may also upload the printed and signed DHS-93 form.

    Save the payment request

    6. Once complete, click Save, which will create the manual payment request. MiSACWIS will bundle the manual payment requests for daily payment processing.

    7. If you want to tie the manual payment request to a provider invoice, this can be done from the Payment Roster screen based on user security.

    Each time an invoice is received, the supervisor will need to repeat the manual payment process until all units are used from the initial service authorization.

    Creating Manual Payments Where No Case Service or Service Authorization Exists

    Create manual payment

    Before you begin

    Be sure you verify the case’s program type history. When you create the payment request, you’ll need to enter a payment date that falls between the end dates of the applicable program types. If the case has an open ended program type, you’ll want to create the payment between the open ended program type date and the date of the previously end dated program type.

    1. Navigate to Financial > Payment > Manual Payment Request.

    2. Link the provider and person.

    3. The supervisor will NOT receive the error stating that linking a service authorization is required for a DHS 93. The new override security profile will allow the supervisor to bypass this validation.

    4. On the Manual Payment Request screen, enter the number of Units being billed, the Payment Start Date, and Payment End Date.

    Calculate payment request

    5. Click Calculate to calculate the total amount for the payment request.

    6. Enter comments in Comments box if necessary. If the program type history did not convert properly, type the correct payment dates into the Comments box.

    Note

    To support the payment request, you may also upload the printed and signed DHS-93 form.

    Save the payment request

    7. Once complete, click Determine Fund Source. MiSACWIS will display a message with the question, ‘Determining the fund source will save the payment request, do you wish to continue?’. If you are sure that you have entered all the correct information click Ok. Otherwise, click Cancel.

    By clicking Ok, MiSACWIS bundles the eligible manual payment requests onto a roster for payment processing.

    8. These payments will appear on an approved roster:

    Bundled under the worker name Batch Job 120, Process Manual Payment Rosters.

    With a Roster Category/Name, DHS 93 ‘County Name’/Approved Service Auths ‘Date’.

    Note

    For these manual payments, the supervisor does not need to approve the payment roster.

  • Manual Payment Process For placement services within billing periods

    10/01/2013-04/20/2014

    Getting Started This job aid was designed to assist you in completing the steps for placement billing periods not previously paid. At this time, DHS and Private Agencies are able to start the process to complete the work for unpaid placement billing periods for 10/01/13 -04/20/14 ONLY in no more than 14 day increments. Do not complete the process for dates prior to 10/01/13. A subsequent communication will be sent out with instructions to take action for placement billing periods prior to 10/01/13 at a later time.

    Use this guide for foster care cases with the following fund sources: title IV-E, state ward board & care and limited term/emergency foster care.

    For county child care funded children follow local office procedures to make payments.

    There will be no IVR or agency roster verifications for these payment requests. The primary worker is responsible to route the manual payment to the appropriate persons for approval. If the primary PAFC worker cannot complete a Manual Payment due to a conversion issue, contact your local DHS office and ask DHS complete the Manual Payment for the time period needed. In some instances, Federal Compliance Division (FCD) approval may be needed. Follow policy to determine if a manual payment request needs to be routed to FCD. Detailed instructions are listed below and are also available on the MiSACWIS communications website.

    Terminology SWSS vs. MiSACWIS • Non-scheduled payment is now a case service manual payment or placement service manual payment. • DHS-626, Foster Care Payment Authorization and DHS-634, Foster Care Non-Scheduled Payment Authorization

    have been combined into the new DHS-659, Foster Care Payment Authorization. • DHS supervised placement is now cost type - standardized rate, service description - 0700-age appropriate rate. • PAFC supervised placement is now cost type - contract rate, service description - 0780-general foster care.

    Review MiSACWIS Service Authorizations: Day 1 Ensure that all steps are completed prior to adding manual payments to avoid incorrect payments being made

    or the fund source being incorrect. See the attached Day 1 Activity Guide. Thoroughly review this before completing any manual payment requests.

  • Be diligent in your efforts to verify that a payment does in fact need to be made. Doing so will avoid overpayments. If overpayments do occur, recoupment action must be taken.

    For each billing period, a manual payment must be created. (See examples below)

    Example 1: The PAFC did not receive payment for 04/01/14 to 04/20/14. The child’s fund source is state ward board and care. Verify that the fund source is correct and that the provider has not been paid for this time period. This example requires two manual payment requests to align with the billing periods on the attached Children’s Foster Care Payment Schedule.

    Payment 1 would be from 04/01/14 - 04/06/14. Payment 2 would be from 04/07/14 - 04/20/14.

    Example 2: A DHS supervised placement provider did not receive payment for 12/30/13 to 01/26/14. The child’s fund source is title IV-E. Verify that the fund source is correct and that the provider has not been paid for this time period. This example requires two manual payment requests to align with the billing periods on the attached Children’s Foster Care Payment Schedule.

    Payment 1 would be from 12/30/13 - 01/12/14. Payment 2 would be from 01/13/14 - 01/26/14.

  • MANUAL PAYMENTS SHOULD ONLY BE CREATED FOR a 14 day time period OR LESS In the example below a manual payment was created for a 64 day time period. Manual Payments should ONLY be created for a maximum of a 14 day time period.

  • Before creating a manual payment: Verify that the authorization is approved for the time period in the manual payment request.

    If the authorization is pending, obtain the appropriate approvals prior to creating a manual payment.
