(the Organization). The information in this schedule is presented in accordance with the requirements of Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance). Because the Schedule presents only a selected portion of the operations of the Organization, it is not intended to and does not present the financial position, changes in net assets, or cash flows of the Organization. De Minimis Rate Used: N Rate Explanation: The Organization does not elect to use the 10% de minimis indirect cost rate as covered in 200.414, Indirect (F&A) costs of the Uniform Guidance. Expenditures reported on the schedule are reported on the accrual basis of accounting. Such expenditures are recognized following the cost principles contained in the Uniform Guidance, wherein certain types of expenditures are not allowed or are limited as to reimbursement. None of the federal awards expended by the Organization were in the form of noncash assistance, there was no insurance in effect during the year related to federal awards, there are no awards passed through to subrecipients, nor were there any loans or loan guarantees outstanding at year-end.

Finding Details

2023-02 - U.S. Department of Human Health and Services- Condition - The Organization placed one of its patients on a sliding fee for a different service than the one ultimately provided. Criteria - The Organization should maintain sliding fee applications and supporting finacial records for patients treated during the audit period to determine whether patient charges were appropriately adjusted. These patient charges are based on income and family size by applying the health center's sliding fee discount schedule according to the service that is provided. Cause - High turnover in the finance and accounting department as well as inadequate communication and training for the related processes at the Organization. Effect - The patient was charged on the correct sliding fee discount level, but for a lab visit instead of a medical visit. Recommendation - We recommend that the Organization continue to train and develop new personnel on specific processes related to compliance requirements.
