Abstract

This report summarizes the work undertaken and recommendations submitted by the Foster Group Care Rate Methodology Workgroup. The group’s purpose, membership, work processes, options considered, and recommendations are outlined below. The Iowa Department of Human Services (DHS) formed the Foster Group Care Rate Methodology Workgroup to gather input in a public-private partnership model with the mission to ensure the foster group care service program remains a healthy, viable option in the child welfare service array. The Workgroup’s goal was to ensure an equitable payment (rate) methodology by reviewing the current structure, by making recommendations regarding changes needed, and by proposing an implementation plan for any approved changes.
