CCAP Payment update- feb 13

​Reminder:  Wednesday 2/12/20 and Monday 2/17/20 are holidays and state offices will be closed.  On those days, no payments will be approved, no payments will be issued at The Office of the Comptroller, no payments will be placed in the mail, and no electronic payments will make accounts on 2/12/20 and 2/17/20.   Also, the US Postal Service is closed on Monday 2/17/20.    
 
Payments scheduled to approve by DHS tonight, include MOST payments entered on and up to 2/10/20.  DHS always notes MOST on the approval of payments, because some payments get held up for individual technical issues that need manual corrections.    DHS plans to continue approving payments at least throughout this week.   
 
800-804-3833 provides providers with the entry date of their payments the working day after the entry.  Providers can hear the approval of their payments on this line the day following the approval.  Issue date information also can be heard on 800-804-3833, but the issue information doesn’t come over until two working days after the payment was issued by The Office of the Comptroller.    
 
**Payments are generally issued by The Office of the Comptroller 1-3 working days after the payments are approved by DHS.  Payments are issued at night.  Paper checks go in the mail the next working day.  Direct Deposit and Debit Card payments are in accounts two working days after being issued.  Debit card payments can reach the accounts at any point on the second working day – early in the morning until later in the day.  Weekends and holidays are not working days.
