Greetings Broward Providers:

 

DEL informed us they were experiencing technical difficulties with the EFS MODs system earlier today (8/24/22).

We received an update that as of 12:50 pm EST, the MODS system is back online and should be working correctly.

Thank you all for your patience. 

The Early Learning Coalition of Broward

Attention Providers:
 
Per the State of Florida Division of Early Learning (DEL), The Early Learning Coalition will default to our (ELC of Broward) Max Reimbursement Base Rate regardless of the Provider's Private Pay Base Rate, effective July 1, 2022.
 
Base rate means the rate paid by the ELC before the additional dollar incentives (i.e., Gold Seal, Special Needs, and CLASS Score Rate differentials, etc.)
