Meal Reimbursements for Child Protection 07-28-17

How are counties coding payments for meals if they have to buy a meal for a child protection child during an investigation or if they have to transport and need to stop and get a meal for the child.

At Benton we have been coding them as meals to admin (dept 700). We don't have many and it's a small dollar amount.

In Aitkin we do the same. Code as an admin meal - usually reimbursing the employee.

In Kandiyohi we pay it out of SSIS with the COA for the child's placement and special cost code 99. It doesn't happen very often and the cost usually is minimal but we wanted a way to capture employee costs (admin) versus client costs (SSIS).

It seems to me that this discussion was at a Mentor meeting a few years ago where we were told that all expenses related to the child needed to be put into SSIS because of SACWIS

So we code all under the brass for the service we are providing at the time for the child.
