The Mississippi Department of Rehabilitation Services is committed to ensuring all funds are handled using sound financial management and proper accounting practices. These practices should facilitate the goals and objectives of the program. Only those funds necessary for diagnostic, evaluation and other services, which lead to the attainment of a vocational goal, should be expended.
Authorizations and expenditures for services will be made in accordance with all applicable Agency fee schedules; Agency operating agreements and contracts; State contract rates; vendor's usual and customary charges; and state/federal laws, regulations, policies, and procedures. Rates of payment for services provided in agency-operated facilities shall be determined by the Agency's facility cost reporting system.
Documentation supporting the decision to obligate funds, change amounts obligated, and recommended payment must be present in the case file.
