To COHs/DPHs: The EI Fiscal Workgroup will be meeting via conference call next week and prior to sending issues to BEI, wanted input from other members regarding the reconciliation of NYEIS claims submitted before 4/1/2013.
Has your county reviewed the spreadsheet of claims provided by BEI and either a) Already been compensated or b) submitted the verification claim?
If not how are you managing this new request to validate and accept the claims data provided by BEI?
Please respond by 9 a.m., 11/15/19 if possible. The county workgroup members are trying to identify if concerns they discussed on the call regarding the verification process are broad concerns, or limited to a handful of LHDs/counties.
