The Hospital elected to use lost revenues calculation Option II, Budget to Actual. Option II requires that an approved budget prior to March 27, 2020, which covers the entire period of availability, be utilized to calculate lost revenues. While the budget period relating to calendar year 2020 was approved prior to March 27, 2020, the budget period relating to calendar year 2021 was approved subsequent to March 27, 2020. Thus, the budget approved prior to March 27, 2020 did not cover the entire period of availability and the budget relating to calendar year 2021 was not approved within required time parameters. Additionally, there were certain errors discovered within the calculation due to the inclusion of nonpatient revenues and the exclusion of bad debts. Corrective Action Plan: The finding identified is a result of confusion over information required to be input into the portal. It was the Hospital’s intention to rely entirely upon those lost revenues related to calendar year 2020. Calendar year 2020 lost revenues calculated using a budget approved prior to March 27, 2020, result in total lost revenues of $5,115,335. Lost revenues alone more than substantiate the $4,503,732 of Provider Relief Funds recognized by the Hospital. Going forward, the Hospital will continue to improve its understanding of the guidance related to lost revenue reporting and work with their external advisors to ensure future portal submissions, if any, are compliant with said guidance. While the Hospital will ensure compliance with submission requirement in any future required submissions, if any, the Hospital considers the lost revenues and COVID-19 related expenses incurred by the Hospital sufficient in substantiating those Provider Relief Funds received and reported on within the period in question. Personnel Responsible for Corrective Action: Kathleen Bunting, Chief Executive Officer; kjbrnmsn@hotmail.com; 618-842-2611. Anticipated Completion Date: Change is in process and full adoption is anticipated at time of next portal submission, if any.

Finding 2021-01 - Related to the Financial Statements Reported in accordance with Government Auditing Standards and Related to Federal Awards Statement of Condition: The required annual audits of the financial statements for the years ended June 30,2021 and 2022 were not completed and submitted to the federal and state governments within the time frames required by Federal Regulations and the State of Georgia. Criteria: Title 2 U.S. Code of Federal Regulations Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance) require that grant recipients that expend $750,000 or more in federal awards in a fiscal year must have a single audit conducted in accordance with 45 CFR Part 75, Subpart F and submit the related audit reports electronically to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse within the specified time frame. The Official Code of Georgia, Annotated (O.C.G.A) §36-81-7 requires an annual audit of the financial affairs, transactions of all funds and activities of the local government for each fiscal year of the local government. The audit report must contain financial statements prepared in conformity with generally accepted governmental accounting principles. The annual audit report of the local government shall be completed, and a copy forwarded to the state auditor within 189 days after the close of the local government's fiscal year end. Recommendation: We recommend that all financial reporting and submission requirements and deadlines required by federal and state regulation be adhered to for future periods. Management's Response: The City engaged a public accounting firm to audit the financial statements for fiscal years ended June 30,2021 and 2022.
