Monthly reports are submitted to the COUNTY per section 11(d) above. Sign-in sheets are described in the Senior Nutrition Program policies and procedures manual and must be submitted to COUNTY monthly. Sign-in sheets and New Client Logs are verification of the number of meals included on the monthly reports and the total number of signatures and reported meals must match.
COUNTY will not reimburse for meals reported on the monthly report for which there is no signature on a sign-in sheet or signatures on the new client log.
Electronic documentation is described in section 11(a) above and includes electronic meal data collected through the use of a scanning device or entry into a COUNTY- provided system. Electronic data report may be accepted by COUNTY as back -up documentation for the monthly report in lieu of a sign- in sheet.

Electronic data also must be reconcilable to Sourcewise’s AssureCare database. If electronic documentation is not reconcilable to Sourcewise’s Assurecare database an error rate is created. If CONTRACTOR’s electronic data exceeds an error rate of 5%, COUNTY may withhold a percentage of CONTRACTOR’s invoice equivalent to the percentage of the error rate exceeding the 5% threshold. For example, if CONTRACTOR has an error rate of 23%, COUNTY may withhold 18% (23% - 5%) of CONTRACTOR’s invoice for that month. However, if Sourcewise reimburses COUNTY for the meals that create this error rate, then the County will not withhold any percentage of CONTRACTOR’s invoice for the error rate but still may withhold payment for the other documentation issues listed in this section.

SNP - Congregate Meals
Provide nutritious meals, opportunities to socialize, transportation, and resources to older adults across Santa Clara County.
Lack of food access,
financial instability, and
social isolation are
pervasive issues among the
older adult community. In
order to meet the needs of
this community services
need to include ethnically
diverse cuisine served in
locations in proximity to low-
income neighborhoods,
innovative service models
that bring the food to the
people, transportation
options, and additional
safety net resources. These
services are a vital
component to keeping
people healthy and living
independently.
By June 30, 2025, at least 75% of eligible older adult
congregate meal participants will have participated in at least one other service offered at the meal site.
