(a) Each local
				  child support agency shall report the following data to the Department and the
				  Department will use the data to calculate performance measures for the following
				  categories:
(1) Percent of cases with a court
				  order for current child support. The performance measure will be calculated as
				  follows:
The total number of cases in the caseload with a court order for
					 current child support compared to the total number of cases in the caseload, except
					 medically needy only cases.
(2)
				  Percent of cases with collections for current child support. The performance measure
				  will be calculated as follows:
The total number of cases in the caseload for which at least one
					 payment for current support has been collected during the reporting period compared
					 to the total number of cases in the caseload for which current child support is
					 due.
(3) Average amount collected
				  per case for all cases with collections. The performance measure will be calculated
				  as follows:
The total amount of child support collected as compared to the
					 total number of cases for which some collections were received during the reporting
					 period.
(4) Percent of cases with
				  an order for arrearages. The performance measure will be calculated as follows:
The total number of cases in the caseload with arrears due
					 compared to the total number of cases in the caseload, except medically needy only
					 cases.
(5) Percent of cases on
				  which arrearages were collected. The performance measure will be calculated as
				  follows:
The total number of cases in the caseload for which arrears were
					 collected compared to the total number of cases in the caseload for which arrears
					 are owed.
(6) Percent of alleged
				  obligors who were served with a Summons and Complaint to establish paternity or a
				  support order. The performance measure will be calculated as follows:
The total number of alleged fathers or obligors who were served
					 with a Summons and Complaint to establish paternity or a support order compared to
					 the total number of cases in the caseload that required service of a summons and
					 complaint to establish paternity or a child support order during the reporting
					 period.
(7) Percent of children
				  for whom paternity has been established. The performance measure will be calculated
				  as follows:
The total number of children for whom paternity has been
					 established or acknowledged during the reporting period compared to the total number
					 of children in the caseload who require the establishment of
					 paternity.
(8) Percent of cases
				  that had a child support order established. The performance measure will be
				  calculated as follows:
The total number of cases in the caseload for which a child
					 support order was established compared to the total number of cases in the caseload
					 that required the establishment of a child support order during the reporting
					 period.
(9) Cost-effectiveness.
				  The performance measure will be calculated as follows:
The total amount of child support collected and distributed for
					 each dollar expended by the local child support agency. For purposes of this
					 measurement, the electronic data processing costs for consortia counties will be
					 allocated to each county, based on actual costs.
(10) Percent of cases with orders for which
				  medical support has been ordered. The performance measure will be calculated as
				  follows:
The total number of cases in the caseload for which medical
					 support has been ordered compared to the total number of cases in the caseload for
					 which either current child support and/or medical support only has been
					 ordered.
(11) Percent of cases
				  with health insurance provided as ordered. The performance measure will be
				  calculated as follows:
The total number of cases in the caseload for which health
					 insurance was provided as ordered compared to the total number of cases in the
					 caseload for which health insurance was ordered.
