The Reality of Child Care Today

A Child Care Crisis Looms

Lack of child care providers and skilled staff

Fragmented and complex child care system

Costly for families to access services

Challenging for providers to get licensed and remain compliant

Difficult to navigate by all interested parties

What needs to be considered when redesigning technologies and processes in child care?

The recently finalized federal Child Care and Development Fund (CCDF) rule requires states take actionable steps to:

  • Lower the cost of childcare
  • Make enrollment easier and faster for families
  • Improve and streamline payment practices for providers

Federal funding may be available to cover the costs related to the implementation of these requirements

Benefit of the exchange model in child care

Providers

  • Interact with the state at times that work for them
  • Streamlined application and monitoring processes allow providers to focus more on children and less on regulatory burdens
  • Allows technology to do the heavy lifting

State Agencies

  • Improves data driven decisions through greater understanding of where families want care, where they cannot find it, and where building capacity is most needed
  • Streamlined processes and technology supports staff in reclaiming much needed capacity and focusing on those families who need it most
  • Flexible systems can change with shifting needs

Child Care Exchange

Solution Management and Deployment

The CCX is a modular, configurable SaaS platform for child care

Built and maintained as a single code-base across states

Deployed independently for each state with the necessary integrations and configurations (i.e. not a multi-tenant environment)

The entire platform is developed, maintained and improved over time by Vimo®

System enhancements and state-specific functions are built into the common platform as configurations, and are available to other states as needed

Any specific ancillary requirements that are best addressed by existing third-party SaaS products, like Learning Management, are filled through licensing and integration of such products

Leverages our proven success in building and refining a common SaaS platform which has supported 8 states running state-based health care exchanges over 9 years off a single codebase
