Is it possible for providers to receive the VPK and SR payments together?
The VPK invoice is submitted by the ELCFH to OEL by the 8th business day of the month. Reconciliations continue on the part of the ELCFH due to the complexity of the prepayments that providers choose. When the VPK reimbursement is issued to the ELCFH, it is usually by the latter part of the month and those payments are scheduled for the last 2 or 3 business days of the month. SR advances typically offset the SR payments that generally occur by the 10th business day of the month (average the 9th-12th day of the month.). The ELCFH will be reviewing the VPK advance limits this year to see if we can hold more dollars to facilitate payments.
