Finding 2022-020 Medicaid Cluster, ALN 93.775, 93.777, and 93.778 and Children's Health Insurance Program, ALN 93.767 - Expenditure Processing for Medical Payments Management Views MDHHS agrees with the finding. Planned Corrective Action MDHHS has been working since 2018 to ensure correct eligibility classifications in Bridges at the time of payment and a system change was implemented in April 2021 to correct the issue. All new cases are correctly routed. MDHHS expects that all existing cases will be updated during the 14-month period following the May 11, 2023 end date of the PHE, as MDHHS completes renewals for existing cases. MDHHS could not terminate Medicaid benefits during the PHE, and annual renewals have not been completed since the start of the PHE, resulting in most Medicaid cases not being touched until the 14-month unwind period allotted by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services at the end of the PHE. MDHHS identified and updated its manual process of transferring expenditures from the Medicaid Cluster to the Children?s Health Insurance Program in June 2021; and will continue this manual process, on a quarterly basis, by completing a summary-level adjustment determined by analyzing CHAMPS payment data and Bridges eligibility data until all existing cases have been updated. Anticipated Completion Date July 31, 2024 Responsible Individual(s) Logan Dreasky, MDHHS Brant Cole, MDHHS Erin Emerson, MDHHS

Finding 2022-056 Low-Income Home Energy Assistance, ALN 93.568 - Recertification of Clearance Patterns Management Views Treasury agrees with the finding. Unforeseen reorganizational efforts and staffing turnover in fiscal year 2022 resulted in a disruption to the continuality of the Cash Management Improvement Act program. Corrective action implemented to address prior audit findings enabled newly appointed staff to replicate queries for most of the programs that required clearing pattern review. As a result, the number of programs exhibiting significant deficiencies in their clearance pattern review decreased compared to fiscal year 2021. Planned Corrective Action Treasury will continue updating the procedures pertaining to the verification processes of clearing patterns and will prioritize the examination of queries from SBI to ensure that Treasury data includes all required clearing patterns for review. Clearing Pattern Recertification is mandated by the federal government every five years. Internally, annual reviews of clearing patterns will be conducted to ensure adherence to the program's objectives. State agencies will continue to provide the necessary coding and date range information for the development of clearing patterns. Anticipated Completion Date Treasury will make updates to the procedures and complete the clearing pattern review by September 2023. Responsible Individual(s) Andrew Silva, Treasury

RE: HELP HOUSING FOR THE DISABLED, INC. 26900 Euclid Avenue Euclid, Ohio 44132 SUBJECT: Corrective Action Plan 042EH430 HELP HOUSING FOR THE DISABLED Reporting Period Ending Date ? June 30, 2022 Finding 2022-001 CFDA: 14.157 Section 202 Direct Loan Criteria: Internal controls over compliance should be in place to ensure the deposit of surplus cash amounts into the residual receipts account occurs within ninety days after year end. Condition: A deficiency in internal control over compliance existed due to the prior year excess surplus cash amount not being deposited into the residual receipts account within ninety days after the end of the annual fiscal period for which the surplus cash was calculated. Recommendation: The Project should establish procedures to ensure that surplus cash is deposited within ninety days after the end of the annual fiscal period for which the surplus cash is calculated. CORRECTIVE ACTION: Management has agreed to implement the process of depositing surplus cash on the day the audited financial statements are issued. Thorough review of financial statement notes and conversations with audit team during the review process will establish the amount of funds to be deposited. Once this internal review is complete and audited statements are issued the internal management team will routinely make the required deposit and follow up by providing payment confirmation to the outside audit team. This accountability confirmation process will ensure that the deposit is made timely and routinely. Any questions regarding this plan should be directed to: Belinda Glavic Grassi MA, CPA Chief Financial Officer Help Housing for the Disabled, Inc. (216) 432-4810

Compliance requirement ? Reporting Institutional Comments on Findings and Recommendations: 1. The institution does not concur with the auditor finding because the institution strictly followed and used the recommended HEERF methodology and reporting guidelines to prepare the quarterly and annual reports. Since the institution used the reimbursement method, the drawdown were the actual expenditures/costs incurred and requested for reimbursement. The HEERF reporting requirement does not make any indication nor reference to GAAP. The Institutional aid portion expenditures were supported by the proper invoice or check. The evidence was available to the auditors. 2. The institution concurs with the auditor finding. The institution inadvertently, did not include a line item from one of the quarterly reports. The period to make corrections was closed and we sent an e-mail to the department to amend this annual report. 3. The institution concurs with the auditor finding. The annual report contains detail statistical information that not necessarily is supported by our institutions data base and programs. As the ED expressed, this information was unique and challenging, and accordingly, the institution made some reasonable estimates and derivatives in the information provided. As you may notice in the referenced table by the auditor, the differences were minimal. 4. a. The institution concurs with the auditor finding on the difference in Item #5 of the quarterly report. The institution will accordingly amend the report. b. The institution does not concur with the auditor finding on the timely and accurate reporting in publicly posting the quarterly Student Aid Portion. The four quarterly reports were timely submitted with an e-mail to the HEERF reporting staff and timely posted in the institution web page as required by the HEERF reporting instructions. The reports were further reviewed by an officer of the Department of Education (ED). The ED expressed that this information may be unique and challenging to an audit, and indicated that for these public reporting requirements, the auditors may accept as evidence of compliance, contemporarily produced e-mails, webmaster logs, or other relevant documentation establishing good-faith indication that the institution posted the required information at approximately the timelines established by the public reporting requirements. Copy of the e-mails were available to the auditors as evidence of compliance. ED understands that this information may be unique and challenging to audit, particularly because auditors are asked to verify information posted on a webpage which may not be accessible during audit fieldwork. For these public reporting requirements, auditors may accept as evidence of compliance, contemporarily produced emails, webmaster logs, or other relevant documentation establishing a good-faith indication that the institution posted the required information at approximately the timelines established by the public reporting requirements (HEERF Grant Program Auditing Requirements, General Requirements and Information - All HEERF Grantees). 5. The institution does not concur with the auditor finding because the referenced payment was made in accordance with the Institution's fund distribution and the student financial needs, among other factors, at the time of the evaluation and distribution of the funds. The student financial circumstances may have change after the distribution and payments of the financial aid. Additionally, this is an immaterial amount as compare to the total amount of the funds distributed ant the quantity of students served (1 out of 460). Actions Taken or Planned: The institution understands that no further is needed or required.

1. The institution does not agree, nor concurs, with the auditors on this finding because the institution used the reimbursement payment method. This method was the preferred one when the non-federal entity, as our institution, cannot meet the requirements in 2 CFR, section 200.305(b)(1) for advance payment and the federal awarding agency sets a specific condition for use of the reimbursement. Title 2 of the CFR Part 200.305(b)(1), establish among others: "The non-Federal entity must be paid in advance, provided it maintains or demonstrates the willingness to maintain both written procedures that minimize the time elapsing between the transfer of funds and disbursement by the non-Federal entity, and financial management systems that meet the standards for fund control and accountability as established in this part". Furthermore, 2 CFR Part 200.305(b)(3) states: "Reimbursement is the preferred method when the requirements in this paragraph (b) cannot be met, when the Federal awarding agency sets a specific condition per ? 200.208, or when the non-Federal entity requests payment by reimbursement. " Since our institution was not able to meet 2 CFR, section 200.305(b)(1), and the HEERF guidelines has specific condition on how to use the funds; we choose the reimbursement method in the execution of the funds. Our institution adopted all HEERF instructions and guidelines as their policies to comply with the HEERF requirements, in addition to the CFR's regulations. Below some of the guidelines, instructions ad FAQs we adopted followed" a.

The institution does not agree, nor concurs, with the auditors on this finding because, as we mention in number 1 above, the institution adopted and followed the federal award and HEERF guidelines in the execution of the funds. The HEER funds were provided during the special national emergency caused by COVID-19. The DOE and HEERF officials issued many written guidelines, instructions, and FAQ's (Frequently Asked Questions) documents, due to the nature and novel of the national emergency situation. The institution adopted, followed, and relied on the many referenced guidelines and exercise extreme judgment to ensure compliance with the federal requirements and use of the funds. The institution belief this referenced guidelines and instruction were very specific and sufficient to execute the use of the funds. All direct charges to federal awards were for allowable costs under the guidelines and instructions from the Department of Education. Some of the allowable costs were verified and validated by an officer of the Department of Education and reviewed by an independent consultant. 3. The institution concurs with the auditor finding. Actions Taken or Planned: The institution begins in addition to the adopted HEERF guidelines, instructions, and CFRs; to develop additional procurement policies and are in the process of completing those policies. The institution expects to have those completed by May 31, 2023.

Finding 2022-002 Programs: All Material Weakness over Financial Reporting Repeat Finding: Yes Auditee?s Corrective Action Plan: The City has purchased Workday, an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system, and implemented the software with the assistance of Accenture consultants. Although Workday went ?live? as of August 2022, the City is currently working to refine the software and fully utilize its functionality. The new system includes improved financial reporting and functionality. Specific improvements available are: ? Allocations which were calculated manually, such as overhead allocations, are being automatically calculated and created in Workday. ? There has been an extensive review of the chart of accounts, including the use of hierarchies, which more closely align the financial and budgetary reporting needs of the City. ? The City will be using ?control? accounts for accounts receivable and accounts payable, which requires the subsidiary systems to reconcile to the general ledger. ? The City will be using multi-book accounting, which will allow for GAAP entries to be entered into a separate ledger. ? The City is purchasing Workiva, a cloud-based software, which will interface with Workday and update the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) document. It will provide an audit trail for changes to the ACFR document. This implementation is slated to begin in June 2023, but full implementation may not occur until fiscal year 2024.

After BCHD's fiscal team enters the request into PMX, there is no control over the timing of when the funds are received and when the funds are posted to the GL, as this is the responsibility of the City's Treasury department. BCHD will continue to work with the Department of Finance to ensure parameters for generating reports are the same and there is an agreed upon reconciliation when the parameters for reporting are not the same.
