CALCULATION AND TERMS OF FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE
13
.
A tutor is entitled, as financial assistance, to an amount obtained by adding the following amounts:
(
1
)
an amount determined by subtracting the amount to stand in lieu of monetary compensation provided for in subparagraph
a
of paragraph 4 of section 34 of the Act respecting the representation of family-type resources and certain intermediate resources and the negotiation process for their group agreements (
chapter R-24.0.2
) from the net remuneration, established pursuant to paragraph 3 of section 34, and to which the tutor would be entitled under a group agreement entered into in accordance with the provisions of that Act as a foster family within the meaning of the Act respecting health services and social services (
chapter S-4.2
);
(
2
)
the amount determined as what constitutes reasonable operating expenses in accordance with paragraph 3 of section 34 of the Act respecting the representation of family-type resources and certain intermediate resources and the negotiation process for their group agreements;
(
3
)
a daily amount of $5 to cover the child’s personal expenses.
A daily lump sum of
$2.65
is added to the amount obtained pursuant to the first paragraph as special compensation. The lump sum is adjusted on 1 January of each year, in relation to the preceding year, based on the percentage change in the All-Items Consumer Price Index for Canada, published by Statistics Canada under the Statistics Act (R.S.C. 1985, c. S-19). To that end, the consumer price index for a year is the annual average calculated from the monthly indexes for the 12 months ending on 30 September of the preceding year.
An electronic version of the content of the group agreement provided for in subparagraph 1 of the first paragraph, updated by the Ministère de la Santé et des Services sociaux, is available on the department’s website at www.msss.gouv.qc.ca.
O.C. 591-2008, s. 13
;
O.C. 492-2013, s. 10
.
14
.
The level of services required to determine the amount of compensation provided for in subparagraph 1 of the first paragraph of section 13 is established at the time of the initial application for financial assistance. Despite the foregoing, it may be reviewed by the institution upon request by the tutor if a significant change, either permanent or chronic, occurs in the condition of the child. Such a situation must be certified by a physician who is a member in good standing of the Collège des médecins du Québec.
For such purposes, the institution uses the Form for the determination and classification of support and assistance services provided for as a schedule to the Regulation respecting the classification of services offered by an intermediate resource and a family-type resource (chapter S-4.2, r. 3.1).
The amount adjusted following a review is granted as of the date of receipt of the duly completed application for review.
