Q1.	How are FFP and EPSDT SGF payments distributed?
A1.	July 2009 and after, FFP and SGF was paid to the counties with two warrants based on the SD1 claim cutoff cycles. With SD2, FFP and SGF is paid with one warrant based on an FFP invoice cycle for the prior week's claims. All SD1 and SD2 payments (FFP and SGF) since July 2009 are to the submitting county. Prior to July 2009, EPSDT SGF payments were to the beneficiary county except for approved claims with adoption assistance aid codes (03, 04, 06, 4A), in which EPSDT SGF went to the submitting county. At all times, FFP is paid to the submitting county. Updated: 05/12/2010
