Such expenditures are recognized following the cost principles contained in the Uniform Guidance, wherein certain types of expenditures are not allowable or are limited as to reimbursement. Touchstone Behavioral Health d/b/a Touchstone Health Services has elected to use the ten percent de minimis cost rate allowed under the Uniform Guidance. De Minimis Rate Used: Y Rate Explanation: Touchstone Behavioral Health d/b/a Touchstone Health Services has elected to use the ten percent de minimis cost rate allowed under the Uniform Guidance. The accompanying Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (the “Schedule”) includes the federal award activity of Touchstone Behavioral Health d/b/a Touchstone Health Services under programs of the federal government for the year ended September 30, 2023. 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 Touchstone Behavioral Health d/b/a Touchstone Health Services, it is not intended to and does not present the financial position, changes in net assets or cash flows of Touchstone Behavioral Health d/b/a Touchstone Health Services. Touchstone Behavioral Health d/b/a Touchstone Health Services did not provide federal awards to sub-recipients during the year ended September 30, 2023.

Finding Details

Criteria or Specific Requirement: Touchstone Behavioral Health d/b/a Touchstone Health Services must submit their financial and federal award information to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse within 30 days after Touchstone Behavioral Health d/b/a Touchstone Health Services receives the audit report or within 9 months from Touchstone Behavioral Health d/b/a Touchstone Health Services’ fiscal year end. Condition: The fiscal 2023 financial statements, single audit reporting package and data collection form were not completed and submitted to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse until after June 30, 2023. Cause: The delays in timely reporting were primarily caused by a myriad of challenges resulting from Touchstone Behavioral Health d/b/a Touchstone Health Services’ change in electronic medical records and billing system during the year as well as a lack of resources to effectively manage this system conversion. Effect: Touchstone Behavioral Health d/b/a Touchstone Health Services was not able to meet its financial reporting, audit requirements, and deadlines. This also impacted decision-makers’ ability to rely on financial information that is not provided in a timely manner. Additionally, the delay in the federal award reporting resulted in Touchstone Behavioral Health d/b/a Touchstone Health Services’ delay in issuing its single audit reporting package, which was due June 30, 2023 and could result in actions being taken by federal grantors on various federal awards. This is deemed to be a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting.
