The AOC modernized its disbursement system for indigent representation payments to attorneys, interpreters, expert witnesses, and investigators in early 2018. The new AOC Claims and Payment (ACAP) system replaced the Indigent Claim Entry (ICE) system and allows users to more accurately and efficiently input and track claims for payment. The new system will provide users with more feedback and transparency on their claims. The payment process will be streamlined on the backend, improving turnaround times. Any claims that were pending in the old ICE system were automatically migrated from ICE to ACAP. Previous ICE users were grandfathered in to ACAP. New usernames and passwords were sent before launch.
