Specialized rates are established while children are in foster care. Special rates may fall into two categories: The Special Rate Setting provides an additional $30, $90, or $150 per month plus the foster care maintenance rate. The Medically Fragile Rate provides $150, $250, or $500 per month in addition to the foster care maintenance payment.

Specialized rates may be considered for children who are medically fragile, and those with significant emotional, behavioral, physical, or mental challenges. Rates must be negotiated.
