Paying bills within 35 days

10-25-18

I have a question for those counties that only pay bills once a month at board.  The state auditors have written us up because we are not paying bills within the 35 day under the state statute.  Has anyone else been written up for this?  What have you done to correct this?

Tracking CP Allocation

10-24-18

Becker County is tracking the CP Allocation staff expenses using the net cost (Salary Minus any TCM Revenues earned) method as requested.  The TCM revenues earned are gleaned from SSIS Claim Reports.  Of course, these reports are the full 100% TCM’s, when the reimbursement is actually 50% FFP.  We are thinking we need to adjust the revenues to reflect the 50% reimbursement rate.  We would like to know what other counties are doing to track CP Allocation expenditures. 

Thank you-

Corrections Payments

I am wondering how you all pay corrections placements.  Do you put them in SSIS?  Do you have to?  Do you have placement agreements with the facilities?  Do you review the bill or does the Corrections?

Thanks,
