Provide the working job title for each direct care worker and direct care supervisor classified as a contractor, temporary worker or per diem worker.

If the organization has multiple contractors in a job title (e.g., human services worker or personal care services worker I), group them together on the same row.

When determining the reporting groups of job titles, consider that each group’s costs must be allocated down to the service-level staff type. If the organization provides multiple services and/or types of staffing, it will be easier to allocate by grouping working job titles so they align with allocation categories listed on the direct care and supervisor payment allocations – contractors section.

Example: An organization has a job title of “personal care services worker I.” Hannah is a personal care services worker I who works in both CFSS personal care and enhanced personal care. It is easier for the organization to allocate Hannah’s time by creating “personal care services worker I – personal care” and “personal care services worker I – enhanced personal care” working job title groupings.

Use the drop-down menu to select the position type that best fits the job functions for each reported working job title.

Report licensed direct care workers (e.g., registered nurses or licensed professional nurses) separately from direct care workers who are not licensed.

For information about what defines a direct care worker, refer to the definition of direct care worker.

For information about what defines a direct care supervisor, refer to the definition of supervising professional (also known as direct care supervisor).

For staff members who fill multiple position types (e.g., contractor who has job duties as a direct care worker and supervisor), choose the position type that best fits the staff member’s primary duties.

Example: Logan spends 60% of his time in a supervisor role and 40% of his time a direct care worker role. The organization lists Logan’s position type as a personal care supervisor because he spends most of his time in that role.

Provide the total payments made to contractors and temporary workers who the organization paid on an hourly basis during the reporting period. Also, provide the hours worked.

Do not include payments made to staff members who only receive non-hourly payments (e.g., per-diem-only personnel). Report these costs as non-hourly payments.

Provide the total payments made to per diem staff members, as well as non-hourly payments made to contractors and temporary staff members who provide direct care services (e.g., reimbursements for uniforms paid for by the contracted/temporary staff members).
