Or. Admin. Code § 413-090-0030 - Payment for Temporary Absences from Family Foster Care

(1) The Department may continue the base rate payment and any level of care payment to the certified family during a child or young adult's temporary absence from the home for 14 days or less, when:

(a) The plan is for the child or young adult to return to the care of the same certified family; and

(b) No other certified family is receiving a base rate payment or level of care payment for the child or young adult during the period of the absence.

(2) Hospitalization. The Department may continue the base rate payment and level of care payment to the certified family when the child or young adult requires hospitalization for medical treatment and the certified family continues to exercise caregiving responsibilities in anticipation of the return of the child or young adult. Hospitalization for medical treatment is not considered a substitute care placement with a duplicate payment.
