ODP Update Regarding CARES Funds Reporting
ODP distributed Act 24 CARES funds to providers to assist with expenses during COVID-19. As outlined in the DHS FAQ document, providers who received CARES funding will be expected to submit a cost report detailing the use of funds.
The cost report process is being developed by DHS and it is anticipated to be a web-based platform. As such, each provider will need to designate one individual responsible for submitting the cost reports. There will likely be two submissions required, one interim report in September and one final report prior to the end of the calendar year.
In order to prepare user credentials for this online system, ODP is asking each provider to submit the name and email of the individual responsible for submitting your agencies’ report. Prior to August 31, 2020, please complete this short questionpro survey with the following information: Provider MPI, provider name, name of individual submitting cost report, and email address. Further information on the cost reporting process will be forthcoming from DHS. Please contact Rick Smith with any questions.
