The Organization agrees with the finding and recognizes the importance of accurate financial and programmatic reporting in compliance with federal grant requirements. To address this issue, the Organization is strengthening its internal controls surrounding the preparation and review of all financial and programmatic reports submitted to granting agencies. Specifically, the finance department and program staff will implement a joint review process to reconcile reported expenditures and program statistics --such as patient counts --against underlying financial and operational records prior to submission. A standardized reporting checklist will be developed to ensure that all data points are verified for accuracy and that supporting documentation is retained and reviewed. In addition, staff responsible for grant reporting will receive training on federal reporting requirements, including those outlined in 45 CFR 75.342, to ensure consistency and compliance across all submissions. These steps will help ensure that all future reports accurately reflect grant expenditures and program outcomes, minimizing the risk of misreporting and ensuring transparency and accountability.

Finding #2022-002 – Material Audit Adjustments Condition: The District does not have management personnel with the necessary expertise to prepare the financial statements and related notes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Due to limited resources, management has decided to accept certain risks relevant to financial reporting and relies on the auditors to assist with the preparation of the District’s financial statements, including the recording of material audit adjustments. During their audit procedures, the auditors proposed audit adjustments that, if not made, would have resulted in the financial statements being materially misstated. Effect: The District’s system of internal control may not prevent, detect, or correct misstatements in the financial statements. Cause: The District does not prepare the financial statements and related notes. Criteria: Proper financial closing and year-end reconciliation procedures should be in place to identify and adjust the financial records to ensure the financial statements are fairly stated. Recommendation: The auditor will continue to work with the District, providing information and training where needed, to make the District’s personnel more knowledgeable about its responsibility for the financial statements. The auditor recommends that the District review the various yearend processes and transactions necessary to close the financial records. Response: The District acknowledges their responsibility for the financial statements and recording of current year activity. Going forward, the District will work with its bookkeeper to verify that all activity is completely and accurately recorded in the financial records and reflected on the financial statements.

Finding #2022-001 – Lack of Segregation of Duties Condition: The limited size of the District’s staff prevents the ideal separation of functions. The bookkeeper prints accounts payable checks, has access to the password to print electronic signatures and performs bank reconciliations. The bookkeeper also performed all payroll functions during the year. Effect: Because of the lack of segregation of duties, errors or irregularities could occur and not be detected on a timely basis. Cause: Limited number of personnel. Criteria: Internal controls should be in place that provides adequate segregation of duties. Recommendation: Procedures should be implemented segregating duties among different employees. Management should continue to maintain a working knowledge of matters relating to the District’s operations. Response: We agree with this finding but do not believe it is cost effective to increase the office staff in an attempt to bring about a more effective segregation of duties. The board reviews and approves all expenditures on a monthly basis prior to mailing accounts payable checks.

The individual random client sample of 60 participants did not detect any duplications. However, as a new administrator we became aware of the duplicates as identified in the reconciliation provided to the auditors. The manual process used contributed to the duplications in ERA1 and ERA2. The duplications do not appear to be more than the allowable limits. If United Way of Marion County, Inc. would take on such a large endeavor in the future the organization would invest in a digital system. As the new President & CEO, I did my own sampling from the paper applications and payments for examination and gain knowledge of how system change would provide improved internal controls.

Finding No. 2022-007: Inadequate Documentation and Records for Application of Sliding Fee Discounts We have incorporated a policy that establishes the basis for the sliding fee policy to assure affordable access to care for uninsured and underinsured patients of the organization. The policy will recognize a “full discount” for individuals and families with annual incomes at or below 100% Federal poverty level (FPL) with only nominal fees charged, three levels of discount between 100% and 200%, and no discounts for copays for individuals and families earning over 200% FPL. This policy will be in accordance with Section 330(k)(3)(G) of the PHS Act and 42 CFR Part 51c.303(f) and 42 CFR Part 51c.303(u) which are incorporated herewith. We will charge a nominal fee to individuals and families with annual incomes at or below 100% of the FPL. Patients whose incomes are above 100% or below 200% of the FPL will be charged according to our sliding fee scale based on income and family size. Discounts will be provided to patients with incomes up to 200% of the FPL for medical visits. Discounts will be provided to patients with incomes up to 250% of the FPL for family planning visits. Staff will assess patients’ incomes based upon a sliding fee scale and no patient will be denied care based upon their inability to pay. The organization also has a policy of nondiscrimination in the delivery of health care as stated in its Patient Bill of Rights. Also, the Board of Directors define the income and family size, and has defined the family size to be all parents, minors or guardians that are financially responsible for the household. The tracking and documentation of sliding fees is now maintained with the deposit record of each fee received in the shared file for immediate availability and reference.

Finding 2022-005: Lack of Management Oversight over Drawdown Requests As the previous employees responsible for these functions did not perform them effectively, the organization now has such in place, whereas a drawdown process has been implemented.
