Child Care Assistance
|
Your Union and your Employer know
how difficult it can be to find dependable, affordable child care.
Therefore, the Plan provides a child care
assistance benefit for you. The children
of your dependents are not covered for child care assistance under the Plan. If you are covered for child care
benefits under any other source, check the section titled "Coordination of
Benefits" to see how to submit your claims.
Your benefit provides for child care at one of the “network”
centers or one of the approved “non-network” centers.
Your child care benefit covers day care facilities, summer camps
and before and after school programs.
All approved centers are licensed by the Department of Public Welfare
(“DPW”) or their respective state licensing agencies and meet all state
requirements for basic child care centers.
Network Centers
There are currently 15 network centers available for Fund participants to use
for their childcare needs. A registration fee, equivalent to one week's tuition
of $30.00 is required at the time your child starts school. You pay only $6 for
a full day, no part-time rate for children attending our designated Tot-Time
Child Development Centers, Inc. The following is a list of the participating

Non-Network Centers
If it is inconvenient for you to use one of the network
centers, you may utilize a non-network day care center.
If you use a non-network center, you will be
reimbursed up to $10 per child per day, up to 5 days per week.
Any program licensed by the DPW may be eligible to enroll as an approved
non-network center. Child care services
at family home day care centers are not reimbursable, since they are not
required to meet the same criteria for licensing by the DPW or respective state agency. Also, please note that if your
child attends a summer camp program, that program must also be licensed by the
DPW or respective state licensing agency in order to qualify as a reimbursable
expense under the non-network child care benefit.
Attendance sheets must be submitted for reimbursement no later than 90 days from the date
of service in order to be considered for payment. If you would like to use your
child care
assistance benefits, or would like more information about the non-network
centers, contact the Fund office.
