PRELIMINARY PENALTY BASE AMOUNTS FOR FY 1999 AND 2000

This table shows the preliminary alternative SDU penalty "base amount" for each State for FY 1999 and FY 2000. These amounts are derived from State expenditure reports for FY 1998 and FY 1999, respectively, and reflect the sum of the amounts shown on columns B and D of lines 3, 4 and 5 of Form OCSE-396A (issued 1/12/00 by OCSE-AT-00-02). These amounts reflect current quarter claims and prior quarter adjustments.

NOTE: This table includes the alternative penalty base amounts for all States; however, only a few States will actually be subject to the alternative SDU penalty. At the time this AT was issued, OCSE did not know which States would request imposition of the alternative SDU penalty.
