DIGEST

Voucher payments to child care providers. Requires the division of family resources of the office of the secretary of family and social services (division) to ensure that, to the extent not inconsistent with federal law, the method used by the division to determine the local market rate for purposes of establishing the division's reimbursement schedule for voucher payments to child care providers under the federal Child Care and Development Fund program does not result in a variation in reimbursement rates among geographic areas that does not reasonably reflect the variation in cost of living among the geographic areas.
