SECTION ONE: OVERVIEW

1.0 Introduction

This Software Specification describes the requirements and design of the RCA Payment

Worksheet module. The RCA Payment Worksheet is new in v14.1.

1.1 Background Information

The 2013 Minnesota Legislature enacted Northstar Care for Children, with a primary

purpose of eliminating the financial barrier to permanency caused by lower monthly rates

for Adoption Assistance (AA) and Relative Custody Assistance (RCA) than for foster care.

Northstar Care includes a new program, "Northstar Kinship Assistance" (NKA), which is

replacing the RCA program. Over time, DHS can transition RCA cases to NKA. The

legislated date for implementation of Northstar is January 1, 2015.

Northstar Care includes changes to the state and local agency payment methodologies, each

paying a share of all family foster care and all permanency programs with the intent of

making the new program budget neutral for local agencies. The Northstar Fiscal

Reconciliation process is responsible for determining the state, federal Title IV-E and local

shares of these payments. RCA Payments are one input to the Northstar Fiscal

Reconciliation process.

Prior to April1 1, 2014, DHS reimbursed counties 100% of all RCA expenditures as reported

on SEAGR, which does not include client information or details about payments made.

Starting April 1, 2014, counties must report RCA expenditures on the RCA Report, which

requires a corresponding RCA Payment Worksheet.

1.2 Business Need

The Financial Operations Division (FOD) and the Child Safety & Permanency (CSP) Division

within the Department of Human Services (DHS) require counties that make RCA payments

to submit a quarterly RCA Report using SSIS, beginning second quarter, 2014 (April 1 to

June 30). The RCA Report, which must be created in SSIS, contains client, payment and

RCA Payment Worksheet information for RCA payments made by the agency during the

quarter. The RCA Report is the source used to reimburse counties for RCA expenditures

between April 1, 2014 and December 31, 2014. Starting January 1, 2015, the RCA Report

information is an input to the Northstar Fiscal Reconciliation process.

The monthly RCA payment amount is based on multiple factors, including the child's age,

child income offsets and the family's income. The county calculates the payment amount

using the RCA Payment Worksheet. Counties need a screen in SSIS to enter and store the

RCA Payment Worksheet. SSIS needs to perform the calculations based on the worker's

input and validate payments included on the RCA Report with the RCA Payment Worksheet.

CSP and FOD need the RCA Payment Worksheet information to assist with transitions from

RCA to NKA.

1.3 Functionality Overview

The RCA Payment Worksheet module gives counties the ability to create, edit and delete

RCA Payment Worksheets for individual clients. Workers create RCA Payment Worksheets

to calculate the amount of the monthly RCA payment. A worksheet is created when the

agreement begins and at least annually. Rates are based on the child's age, the child's

supplemental level, family size and income. Changes affecting the rate, such as a

significant birthday or change in the family's income require a new RCA Payment Worksheet

to be created. Figure 1-1 shows a high-level overview of the RCA module.

SECTION TWO: HIGH-LEVEL REQUIREMENTS

2.0 Introduction

This section describes the high-level requirements and assumptions for the RCA Payment

Worksheet module. CSP, FOD, counties and SSIS are the source of this information.

2.1 CSP and FOD Requirements

The RCA Payment Worksheet must provide the following requirements.

Requirement Comments Identifier

Provide the ability for local agency

workers to enter RCA Payment

Worksheet information in SSIS.

1.1

SSIS must perform all of the

calculations on the RCA Payment

Worksheet.

1.2

The system must be able to

determine which RCA Payment

Worksheet is effective for the service

dates on a payment.

The "Revision" field identifies the

most recent version of a worksheet

when multiples exist for a "Worksheet

Effective Date."

1.3

Table 2-1: FOD & CSP Requirements

2.2 Local Agency Requirements

The following requirements apply to the local agency business needs.

Requirement Comments Identifier

Provide the ability to create a copy of

an RCA Payment Worksheet to allow

the worker to enter only the

information that has changed.

The "Create Duplicate" action copies

all of the information from the

selected worksheet, except the

"Worksheet Effective Date."

2.1

Provide the ability to create multiple

RCA Payment Worksheets with the

same effective date.

The "Create Revision" action provides

the ability to create a Revision of the

RCA Payment Worksheet. This action

copies the information from the

selected worksheet and increments

the "Revision" number. The

"Worksheet Effective Date" cannot be

changed on a revision.

Sensitive Help Relatives receiving RCA on behalf of a child are expected to seek and

apply for whatever assistance is available through the Minnesota Family

Investment Program (MFIP), or other applicable Temporary Assistance

for Needy Families (TANF) program. The monthly amount received on

behalf of the child only includes the cash portion of the benefit. Enter

the monthly amount on this line. If the relative custodian fails to apply

for assistance through the appropriate program for which the child is

eligible, the RCA payment must be calculated as though the assistance

was being received and the amount for which the child would have

been eligible must be entered on this line. If the child is not eligible for

any of the programs listed above, enter 0.

When the child is the only member of the assistance unit for which

assistance is being received enter the total amount of the monthly

standard. When the child is part of a larger assistance unit, determine

the amount to enter using the "MFIP Worksheet" button.

Sensitive Help Gross Family Income is the sum of annual gross earned and unearned

income from all members of the family. Earned income means cash or

in-kind income earned through the receipt of wages, salary,

commissions, profit from employment activities, net profit from self-

employment activities, payments made by an employer for regularly

accrued vacation or sick leave, and any other profit from activities

earned through effort or labor. Unearned income means income

received by a person that does not meet the definition of earned

income (i.e., interest, dividends, disability insurance payments,

insurance payments, insurance settlements, etc.).

Family members includes the following people who live together: a

minor child or a group of minor children related to each other as

siblings, half siblings, stepsiblings, or adoptive siblings, together with

their natural, adoptive parents, stepparents or caregiver. Caregiver is

defined as the natural or adoptive parent(s) who live in the home of the

child and can also be defined as individuals, if adult, who live with and

provide care and support for a minor child when the natural or adoptive

parents do not reside in the same home: legal custodians,

grandfathers, grandmothers, brothers, sisters, stepfathers,

stepmothers, stepbrothers, stepsisters, uncles, aunts, first cousins,

nephews, nieces, persons of preceding generations as denoted by

prefixes of great, great-great, or great-great-great, or spouses of any

persons named in the above groups even after the marriage ends by

death or divorce. (HLP_RCA_ANNL_INC - 4010021)

APPENDIX A: Issues, Design Decisions and Change

Requests

This section describes design issues and decisions and change request information.

A.1 Issues and Design Decisions

The following table lists major issues identified during design. The decision on how to

address the issue, along with the rationale is included for issues that have been resolved or

deferred.

# Issue Description Design Decision and Rationale Date

1. The Base Assistance Rate is

determined based on the

client's age and increases when

the child reaches a significant

birthdate (6, 12, or 15). Should

age be calculated based on the

"Worksheet Effective Date," the

first of that month, or the last

of that month?

Per design group, the child is eligible

for the higher rate at the beginning of

the birthday month. When possible,

we want to be consistent with Title

IV-E, which reimburses at the higher

rate for the entire month.

12/12/13

2. Is a status field needed to

provide the ability to prevent an

RCA Payment Worksheet from

being edited?

Per design group, yes we need a

"Worksheet Status" field to indicate

the worksheet is "Draft" or

"Finalized." A finalized worksheet

cannot be edited or deleted. Workers

can select "Return to Draft" on the

action menu if changes to a finalized

worksheet are needed

12/12/13

3. What level of edits are required

to ensure information is

correct?

Because the RCA program is ending,

the design team decided to only add

simple and necessary edits.

12/12/13

4. The effective date of the

Federal Poverty Guidelines can

be any date between the

published date and October 1st.

New Federal Poverty Guidelines

are normally published in late

January. What should the

effective date be in SSIS?

We will use April 1 to March 31 as

effective dates, using the field,

"Effective Start Date." The worksheet

finds the most recent Federal Poverty

Guidelines with an "Effective Start

Date" prior to the "Worksheet

Effective Date."

This logic eliminates the need for an

End Date field and allows the

"Effective Start Date" to change from

year to year if needed.

12/12/13

SS RCA Payment Worksheet

Last Updated: 04/25/14 RCA Payment Worksheet Page 52 of 65

# Issue Description Design Decision and Rationale Date

5. The "Claim Amount" on the RCA

Claim will be in whole dollars.

What should display on the

worksheet?

Enter whole dollars in all fields except

the Daily RCA Payment Rate.

12/17/13

6. Can the Annual Gross Family

Income be less than 0?

Yes, allow a negative value in this

field to indicates a loss, which can

occur, for example, with farm

income.

12/17/13

7. When does a new RCA Payment

Worksheet need to be created?

The following situations require a new

worksheet:

Annually, on the anniversary

of the Custody Transfer Date

In the month in which the

child has a significant

birthdate

04/03/14

8. Is a new worksheet needed

when the Federal Poverty

Guidelines change?

No, the new Federal Poverty

Guidelines are incorporated into the

worksheet the next time one is

created.

04/03/14

9. It is possible to merge 2 clients

that both have an RCA Payment

Worksheet with the same

"Worksheet Effective Date" and

"Revision" number. If this were

to happen, both worksheets will

be saved. Should the RCA

Report display a message for

this situation?

We had originally planned to display a

proofing message if this happened.

Decided against using resources to

implement this message because

there is a very low probability it will

happen. Generally, an RCA client will

be an established client in the

county's SSIS database (Theresa)
