Condition - Peak Vista determines the sliding fee discount charged to patients based on the patient's annual gross income and household size. We found two encounters where applications were not retained. Therefore, we could not determine if the sliding fee discount applied was in accordance with the guideline. We found two separate encounters where the patient did not meet the guidelines to receive a discount. We found one separate encounter where the patient was charged an incorrect co-pay. Recommendation - We recommend that Peak Vista's procedures be strengthened to ensure income is properly verified and adequately documented and retained. Peak Vista should strengthen processes surrounding monitoring of the program to ensure the Center's policies are consistently and properly applied. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions - Management agrees with the finding. Peak Vista has developed a plan for addressing this issue that includes updated procedures, training, and auditing. All teams engaged in the enrollment and eligibility process, including our Enrollment, Reception, and Billing teams will be retrained on the process with emphasis on proper documentation. Peak Vista management plans to incorporate into our quality assurance audits the documentation for single service date discount applications and provide feedback and retraining as necessary to staff as needed. Anticipated Date of Completion - In progress, estimated completion 12/31/2023. Action Taken - We have reviewed the recommendation and have a corrective procedure in place for addressing this issue. Will continue to monitor improvement. Person Responsible for Corrective Action Plan - Ryan Spillane, CFO

Findings 2022-001 through 2022-007 During 2020 and 2021, the Organization had gone through a significant amount of turnover at the management level and in the Finance department. These changes have resulted in the identification of a significant lack of internal controls as well as a lack of resources. The Organization has gone through a process of hiring new Finance positions and engaging outside consultants as needed. With a change in leadership and an increase in resources, the Organization is in the process of implementing a system of internal controls that will focus on segregation of duties related to all significant transaction cycles (including monthly close procedures), increasing communication and transparency of transactions within the Organization, and a heightened sense of documentation to support all transactions, including grant funded activity. The goal of implementing this system of controls is to mitigate the risk of any wrongdoing, intentional or unintentional, at the Organization and to allow for proper compliance with restrictions set forth by government agencies.

SIGNIFICANT DEFICIENCY 2022-005 Student Financial Assistance Program Cluster ? Title IV ?

2022-001 Eligibility ? Tenant Files Section 8 Housing Voucher Cluster (Section 8): 14.871 Section 8 ? Housing Choice Vouchers 14.879 Mainstream Vouchers Material Weakness in Internal Control, Material Noncompliance Repeat finding of finding 2021-002 from the prior year September 30, 2021 Condition: Out of a total tenant population of approximately 573 tenants, 25 files were selected for testing. Exceptions were noted as follows: ? 1 file that did not contain a 214 affidavit for one member of the household, however they did have a birth certificate showing they were an eligible citizen. ? 2 files where the 214 affidavit was not checked for one member of the household certifying they were an eligible citizen, however they did have birth certificates to verify their citizenship. ? 5 files that did not contain a signed Form 9886 for at least one member of the household age 18 or over. ? 1 file where the tenant?s income was calculated correctly but had the wrong amount reported on the 50058, which would have decreased HAP rent by $11. ? 1 file where the prior year utility allowance schedule was used instead of the current year, however this had no effect on HAP rent. ? 1 file where there was no support that an inspection had been done for a new admission. ? 1 file that did not contain a tenancy addendum to support the contract rent and HAP rent for a tenant with a project-based voucher. ? 2 files where there was no support that an EIV report had been processed. In addition to the above, we noted the following during our new admissions testing ( new admissions tested): ? 3 files that did not contain a passed inspection completed prior to move-in. ? 1 file that did not contain a signed lease agreement or tenancy addendum. ? 1 file where the request for tenancy approval was not executed until the day after the voucher had expired. Recommendation: The Authority should correct the deficiencies noted in the tested files and utilize an ongoing quality control review process on the entire tenant population to ensure proper compliance with the requirements related to tenant eligibility. Ongoing staff training and timely management reviews should be utilized to ensure staff is aware of acceptable procedures. In addition, the Authority should review staffing levels, skill sets and case load. Action Taken: Errors were corrected in the tested files where corrections could be made. Meaning for example Form 9886 cannot be regenerated for this audit period but will be obtained during future annual recertification (also known as the personal declaration/application) periods. Adjustments will be made to the tenant accounts. Staff was informed to obtain Form 214 during all recertification re-examinations to ensure the required form is in the file. This way, if it was never obtained or if it was inadvertently purged, the file will always have a copy in the file for the review period. File Audit: A file audit (not a 100% audit) was completed for the Housing Choice Voucher Program. A procured third-party vendor performed this process. However, previous staff members did not make the file corrections. For months, there was only one staff member in the HCV Department. The department, at this time, is fully staffed. The current staff is making the file corrections as they come across various issues while moving the program/department forward. Of importance to note is the hire of a new Chief Operating Officer with over twenty (20) plus years of HCV experience who will oversee the Section 8 Department. We believe the new leadership, to include CEO and COO positions will provide the necessary oversight of the HCV program that will improve the overall performance of staff and the program. Quality Control Review: After completion of the file audit, the Housing Choice Voucher Program Manager and their supervisor will be responsible for documented monthly quality control reviews of 10% of files completed during the month.

2022-001 Finding: Missing eligibility forms for Title X Patients Planned Parenthood of Greater Texas (PPGT) was awarded a five-year Title X grant in March 2022. At that time, it was necessary to write new policies, develop forms, trainings, and provide staff education on Title X expectations. The 2023 financial audit was the first audit of Title X since PPGT regained the program a year earlier. The audit identified gaps in understanding of front-line staff and PPGT policy. Corrective Action Plan Annual Title X training will be provided to staff Title X centers in mid-June 2023. The training will include expanded direction and provide clarity for the staff regarding the expectations around eligibility forms. In April 2023, the Sr. Grants Project Manager began performing monthly chart audits across all Title X sites to assess compliance with the 340b program. The audits review ten charts from each Title X center, chosen at random. The criteria include looking for evidence demonstrating compliance with the requirement that an eligibility Form is completed with income information and signed by the patient. Following an audit, a report is provided to the 340b committee and further corrective action will be taken as needed.

BRIGHAM YOUNG UNIVERSITY-HAWAII Management's View and Corrective Action Plan Finding 2022-001- Non-Compliance with Timely and Accurate Student Enrollment Change Submissions to the National student Loan Data System (significant Deficiency) Grantor: U.S. Department of Education Program : Student Financial Assistance Cluster Assistance Listing #: 84.268, 84.063 Title: Federal Direct Student Loan Program, Federal Pell Grant program Award Years: 7/2021 - 6/2023 Management agrees with the finding and proposes the following Corrective Action Plan Corrective Action Plan: Due to the NSLDS outage as announced by the U.S. Department of Education Federal Student Aid's (FSA) office, we were unable to submit enrollment rosters for the period of July 19,2022 through February 28, 2023. Therefore, we are continuing to implement the following corrective action plan to address both the prior year and current year issues as discussed below. The current year finding is the result of three separate reporting issues. The first issue is a repeat finding from the 2021 fiscal year audit (2021-001) related to inaccurately reporting the status of graduated students. When graduation files were sent to the National Student Clearinghouse (NSC), many could not be processed due to the "G" status not being applied when students were reported as graduated. Because of this, the NSC was not sending graduation information for some students to the National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS). Therefore, to appropriately resolve this issue, Daryl Whitford, Registrar, will regularly access the NSC dashboard, prior to submitting of monthly enrollment report, to promptly identify and resolve any reporting issues to ensure NSLDS has the correct information for students. The second issue is a repeat finding from the 2021 fiscal year audit (2021-001) and is the result of inappropriate configuration of each semester's credit load determinations (i.e., how many credits constitute full time, three quarter time, half time, etc.) into PeopleSoft. As a result of the inappropriate configuration, certain student statuses were reported incorrectly given the number of credit hours the student was attending. To ensure accuracy of each semester's credit load determinations, at the beginning of each semester, Daryl Whitford, Registrar, will review and approve the credit load determinations prior to them being pushed into PeopleSoft. This will ensure that PeopleSoft is configured to communicate the appropriate statuses to the NSLDS. The third issue referenced the reporting of the correct program begin dates. When a student returns from a leave of absence or an internship, PeopleSoft updates the students program begin date for the students return date rather than the original program begin date. Daryl Whitford, Registrar, will perform a review of program begin dates for students returning from a leave of absence to ensure the proper program begin date is reported. In addition, we will review if any PeopleSoft enhancements can be made to provide additional comfort that the program begin dates are accurate in these circumstances. Daryl Whitford, Registrar, who is responsible for enrollment reporting at Brigham Young University- Hawaii will continue to provide training to staff who participate in enrollment reporting to ensure that they are aware of the campus and program enrollment changes to be reported, the details to be reported for each change, and the importance of submitting changes timely. Also, Daryl Whitford, Registrar, will oversee the implementation of a control wherein the University will sample students from each roster submission and trace the information from the batch file back to the supporting documentation to ensure that the information included in the batch roster file is accurate. Timing: Daryl Whitford, Registrar, will be responsible to oversee that the items as noted in the Corrective Action Plan section above will be implemented by July 1, 2023. Signed and Acknowledged Daryl Whitford Registrar
