Payment Integrity Act

This bill changes the federal Child Care and Development Block Grant Act. States would have to promise in their child care plans that they will pay child care providers based on children's verified attendance, not just on enrollment. States would check attendance using attendance records or another reasonable method. The bill also states that the law does not require states to pay providers before child care services are given, and that states may pay providers after services are provided.
