55 Pa. Code § 3140.43
Upon approval of the county's quarterly report of expenditures for the second quarter, the Department will make a payment to the county which combines a reimbursement of the State's share of actual expenses for the second quarter and an advance payment for the fourth quarter of the fiscal year. As quarterly reports are cumulative, reimbursement for actual expenses for the second quarter will be adjusted by previous payments and the second quarter advance. The second quarter reimbursement of expenditures will not exceed 50% of the State share of the county's approved plan and budget estimate. Reimbursement for actual expenses paid for the second quarter will be reduced by the excess of cumulative expenditures for any major service category which exceeds the approved annual budget amount of the major service category by more than 10% or $10,000, whichever is greater. The advance payment for the fourth quarter will be 12.5% of the State share of the county's approved plan and budget estimate.
