- Summary:
-
In July of 1986, the Legislative Budget Board requested that the Texas Department of Human Services (DHS) provide information concerning the number of absences in DHS-paid child day care during fiscal year 1985, and the costs associated with the absences. To fulfill this request, DHS conducted a study to (1) identify by provider type the numbers and costs of DHS-paid, full-day equivalent units of service provided when enrolled children did not attend; (2) determine the extent to which non-attendance was related to holidays and closings as opposed to children's absences; and (3) analyze variations in attendance patterns by provider type, month, and region. Questionnaires were mailed to all 473 child day care providers who were under contract or agreement; 239 usable questionnaires were returned. Returned questionnaires accounted for 88% of the units purchased by DHS in fiscal year 1985. Findings are discussed in terms of patterns of absenteeism, reasons for absence, co-pay collections and attendance, cost of unattended units, and eligible but unbilled enrollment units. Included with the 12-page report are 21 pages of tables, eight charts, and copies of survey instruments and correspondence. (RH)
