Reimbursement Rates
OCDC provides a compliance monitoring so Family Day Care Providers can receive monetary reimbursement for serving meals, which meet federal nutritional guidelines, to enrolled participants as outlined in the CACFP meal pattern. Monthly reimbursement payments are paid directly to the provider who signs the agreement.
USDA publishes the federal reimbursement annually. Reimbursements are based on the number of meals served to enrolled children, multiplied by the appropriate reimbursement rate for each meal approved to serve. Using the software KidKare, OCDC receives, approves, and processes claims.
Reimbursement for meals served in Family Day Care Homes is based upon eligibility for Tier I or the lower rate of Tier II. Income information is kept confidential at all times.
Tier 1 Rates
Breakfast: $1.66
Lunch/Dinner: $3.04
Snacks: $.97
