How to read scale – Locate family size in the far left column. Follow the line across to find top number which most closely matches the family’s estimated
monthly gross income (all sources, including wages, child support, etc). The blue number directly below it would be the estimated family co-payment (the
amount the family is responsible for paying each month).

• Co-payments are calculated on a per family basis.
• All earned income is adjusted with a 4% disregard.
• Families with adjusted gross income at or below 160% of the Federal Poverty Level (FPL) do not have a co-payment.
• Families with adjusted income over 160% of the FPL will have a co-payment of between 1% and 12% of the family income.
• Co-payments remain the same, regardless of the cost of care or what type of care is selected.
