Management acknowledges that the City’s audit package and Data Collection Form were not submitted timely to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse within the required timeframe in accordance with Uniform Guidance (2 CFR 200.512). We understand the importance of timely submission in maintaining compliance with federal grant requirements and ensuring continued eligibility for federal funding. The delay was due to new ERP system conversion and staffing shortages. We will re-evaluate our current processes and ensure that all deadlines associated with the Single Audit process are clearly documented and monitored. We will conduct internal reviews after each year-end closing to ensure audit-related deadlines are met and updates will be provided to senior leadership as needed. We will strengthen internal controls and improve communication with our auditors to avoid future delays in submission to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse.

Finding: Allowable Activities & Allowable Costs and Eligibility (Reference Number: 2024-001) Criteria or Specific Requirement: Funds may be expended for foster care maintenance payments on behalf of eligible children, in accordance with the Title IV-E agency’s foster care maintenance payment rate schedule and in accordance with 45 CFR section 1356.21, to individuals serving as foster family homes, to childcare institutions, or public/private child-placement or child-care agencies. In accordance with Code of Colorado Regulations (CCR) section 7.302.2, for each child, Jefferson County Human Services (JCHS) must have an agreement with the provider which details the daily maintenance payments. JCHS agreement to purchase services must be signed by the provider and JCHS. Additionally, in accordance with CCR section 7.301.3, the Family Services Plan shall be reviewed in conference with the caseworker and supervisor every 90 calendar days. Condition: • Two instances out of 40 where there was no signed agreement in place to support revised maintenance payments following a child’s 9th birthday. The correct maintenance amount was paid to the provider in accordance with the State of Colorado rates published in IM-CW–2024-0028 and IM-CW-2023-0021. • One instance out of 40 where the required 90-day review was not completed on time. The review was conducted 15 days late. Cause: The state's Foster Care system did not automatically generate a notice that a new agreement to purchase services was needed based on the child's birthday. Additionally, JCHS lacks an effective control mechanism to proactively identify when a 90-day review is approaching or overdue. Corrective Action Plan: We agree with the finding. The Integrated Case Management System (ICM) is designed to generate an email notification to Collaborative Foster Care Program (CFCP) staff when a child turns 9 or 14 years of age while in foster care. This email notification instructs CFCP staff to generate a new Child Specific Addendum (SS23-B) due to the increase of the child maintenance rate. This email instructs and standard procedure requires CFCP staff to verify the child maintenance rate in Trails after an SS23-B is generated. The IT Systems Support Team responsible for the maintenance of ICM determined that ICM has failed to notify CFCP staff when a child turned 9 or 14 years of age while in foster care: • The IT Systems Support Team responsible for the maintenance of ICM has been asked to ensure that ICM is generating an email notification when a child turns 9 or 14 years of age while in foster care. • While this issue is being addressed in ICM, the CFCP requested a report that included the birthdays for all children in foster care. CFCP staff have generated new Child Specific Addendums (SS23-B) for children that have turned 9 or 14 years old while in foster care. CFCP staff will utilize this report to generate new Child Specific Addendums for future birthdays. • After a new Child Specific Addendum is generated, staff will verify the child maintenance rate in Trails. • The CFCP has determined that it can no longer rely on ICM and has decided to migrate its functionality over to the ancillary system supported by Jefferson County known as the Caseworker Application Timesaver (CAT). With this migration, the email notifications will resume so that CFCP staff are properly notified of the need to generate the new SS23-B and verify the child maintenance rate. • Migration is scheduled to occur on Friday, June 20, 2025. • On Monday, June 23, 2025, the CFCP will meet with the Jefferson County Application Program Analyst to ensure the migration was successful. • Additionally, the CFCP and the Jefferson County Application Program Analyst have scheduled a second meeting for July 9, 2025, to ensure the successful migration from ICM to CAT. • To ensure 90-Day Reviews are completed timely, the Division of Children, Youth, Families, and Adult Protection (CYFAP) will continue to utilize the 90-Day Review compliance feature of CAT. Additionally, CYFAP leadership will emphasize this requirement with supervisors and casework staff and ensure their compliance.

2024-005 – Over Award of Federal Pell Grant Program Funds (Significant Deficiency) Department of Education, SFA Cluster, Special Tests and Provisions Criteria: In accordance with 34 CFR 668.32, a student is eligible to receive Title IV, HEA program assistance if the student meets all of the requirem...
2024-005 – Over Award of Federal Pell Grant Program Funds (Significant Deficiency) Department of Education, SFA Cluster, Special Tests and Provisions Criteria: In accordance with 34 CFR 668.32, a student is eligible to receive Title IV, HEA program assistance if the student meets all of the requirements in 34 CFR 668.32 paragraphs (a) through (m). 34 CFR 668.32(a)(1)(i) requires the student to be a regular student enrolled, or accepted for enrollment, in an eligible program at an eligible institution. Condition: Of 26 students tested for eligibility, one student received Title IV, HEA program assistance for a semester that the student was not enrolled in. Cause: Controls are not functioning properly. Effect: Title IV program funds were awarded to a student who was not eligible to receive such funds. Recommendation: We recommend the University review and update its procedures to ensure that Title IV funds are awarded properly. Management Response: The University acknowledges the over-award of Title IV funds due to disbursement for a student who was not enrolled during the term in question. In response, the University has strengthened its internal controls to ensure that federal aid is awarded and disbursed only to students who meet all eligibility criteria as outlined in 34 CFR 668.32. Corrective actions taken include: 1) System Validation Enhancements: The student information system has been updated to include enhanced enrollment validation checks before the release of Title IV funds. Title IV disbursements are now restricted to students with confirmed active enrollment in eligible programs for the applicable term. This is enforced through automated disbursement blocks that are triggered when enrollment data is missing or inconsistent. 2) Pre-Disbursement Review Process: A pre-disbursement verification step has been implemented, requiring financial aid staff to confirm active enrollment statuses before releasing funds. 3) Staff Training: Targeted training has been provided to financial aid staff on Title IV enrollment eligibility requirements. Responsible Party and contact information: Triniti Lee – Financial Aid Processor, Leetk2@webber.edu. Expected Date of Correction: 8/1/2025
2024-004 –Satisfactory Academic Progress Policy (Significant Deficiency) Department of Education, SFA Cluster, Eligibility Criteria: In accordance with 34 CFR 668.34(a), an institution must establish a reasonable satisfactory academic progress policy for determining whether an otherwise eligible stu...
2024-004 –Satisfactory Academic Progress Policy (Significant Deficiency) Department of Education, SFA Cluster, Eligibility Criteria: In accordance with 34 CFR 668.34(a), an institution must establish a reasonable satisfactory academic progress policy for determining whether an otherwise eligible student is making satisfactory academic progress in his or her educational program and may receive assistance under Title IV, HEA programs. A student placed on academic probation may receive Title IV, HEA program funds for one payment period. At the end of one payment period on financial aid probation, the student must meet the institution's satisfactory academic progress standards or meet the requirements of the academic plan developed by the institution and the student to qualify for further Title IV, HEA program funds. Condition: Our review of 26 student files disclosed that one student was placed on academic probation after fall 2023 semester and received Pell for spring 2024 semester. The student did not meet satisfactory academic progress standards at the end of spring 2024 semester, however, the student received Pell for summer semester 2024. Cause: Controls are not functioning properly. Effect: Title IV program funds were awarded to a student who was not eligible to receive such funds. Recommendation: We recommend the University review and update its policies to ensure that the University’s Satisfactory Academic Progress policy is enforced. Management Response: The University acknowledges the oversight in the enforcement of its Satisfactory Academic Progress (SAP) policy and has taken corrective action to address the deficiency. Specifically, the Financial Aid Office has conducted a comprehensive review of SAP monitoring procedures to ensure full compliance with federal regulations under 34 CFR 668.34. Corrective steps taken include: 1) Policy Clarification and Staff Training: The SAP policy has been reviewed and clarified to emphasize the requirement that a student failing to meet SAP after one payment period on financial aid probation is no longer eligible for Title IV funds unless they meet the conditions of an approved academic plan. Targeted training was delivered to financial aid counselors and compliance staff to reinforce correct application of SAP policies and documentation protocols. 2) Automated SAP Compliance Flag: An automated flag has been integrated into the student information system to alert staff when a student has reached the end of a probation period. This flag prevents Title IV disbursement until a manual review confirms eligibility based on SAP or academic plan compliance. 3)Ongoing Monitoring and Quality Assurance: At the conclusion of each academic term, the University runs comprehensive SAP reports to identify all students who have either regained eligibility, remained on SAP, or have newly been placed on SAP status. The student information system is configured to automatically flag these students and restrict Title IV disbursements through system-based controls in the auto-packaging process, thereby preventing ineligible aid disbursements and ensuring compliance with federal regulations.

Recommendation: Management should continue to provide training and education to front desk staff related to the process for collecting family size and income information, along with inputting it into the electronic medical records. We also recommend enhancing any current internal audits of patient visits to determine all required patient information has been obtained in accordance with TCA’s policies. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action planned in response to finding: TCA Health has addressed the Special Provisions weakness by coaching and training front desk staff members. Specifically, staff were trained in the approved sliding fee scale policy and its requirements. Worked with third-party billing company, and Athena to roll back the EMR update which contributed to ineffective application of the sliding fee in November 2023. TCA hired a full-time Patient Services Manager in 2024 to support ongoing staff training, quality assurance monitoring, and implementation of the updated EMR and registration workflows. Staff have become proficient in the collection of data from patients, properly storing and recording it in the EMR, and the calculation of the slide according to the Federal Poverty Guidelines. Lastly, the team will be updated on the latest EMR module that experienced an upgrade and taught how to effectively apply the slide. Additionally, TCA began to undergo internal audits of records ensuring that proper documentation is maintained and a patient service manager, utilizing testing template provided by the organization’s auditor.
