Finding Details

During the 2019-2020 audit year, Lake County received $28,713 in Provider Relief Funds (PRF) (ALN No. 93.498) from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, which is administered by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA). Subsequently, Lake County failed to submit the required report on the uses of the PRF funds to HRSA by the reporting deadline of September 30, 2021. As a result, Lake County was notified on November 3, 2023, that they were in noncompliance with the reporting requirements for the PRF funds and that they would be required to return $28,713 in grant funds unless they disputed the information and provided an explanation within 60 days of the notice. The county responded to the notice but ultimately had to repay the grant funds plus penalty and interest totaling $30,053 on February 5, 2024. This finding was a result of a lack of management oversight and the failure to comply with the grant guidance.
