Response. Agreed. Where feasible, the Housing Trust will aim to improve management of all federal grants. A process of documentation verification prior to any requests made for financial draws will include employee, supervisor, business operations manager, and executive director level approvals to ensure compliance and availability of funds. A monthly federal request for reimbursements with all grantee information will be used and reconciled monthly with QuickBooks. This report will mirror the SEFA form so auditors will receive the information in a timely manner. For any quarterly reports, the three months of reporting will again be reconciled prior to submission. All new processes and compliance will be updated in the policies and procedure manual. As the Executive Director prepares the 2024 budget, a reorganization of the business operations department will be sought. A new position to prepare and work on all federal grant tasks will be hired and report to the Business Operations Manager. In the meantime, the Business Operations Manager has started to develop checks and balances.

VARR agrees with the finding and as VARR grows, it will seek opportunities beginning November 27, 2023 to delegate responsibilities to qualified individuals to provide a greater level of segregation of duties that will enhance our internal control. We also believe that our integrity and relationship with the Virginia Department of Behavioral Health Development Services and our recovery community centers provide an external layer of control that when tied into our software system known as REC-CAP will alert management when an error occurs. We expect that we will enhance the development of our systems to capture and provide for the seamless integration of this finding by January 31, 2024. This action is in accordance with the requirements of Uniform Guidance 2 CFR §200.511(c).
We continue to look for ways to improve our internal controls.

2022-002 Reporting Recommendation: Our auditors recommend that we review and strengthen current procedures regarding review of reporting by an appropriate level of management prior to submission. As well as that we work with HRSA to take corrective action to rectify this reporting matter. Action Taken: The accounting department had a significant turnover during 2022 which cause reporting errors go unreviewed. Since 2023, the appropriate accounting team has been assembled and proper policies, procedures, authorization, segregation of duties and reviews have been put in place so that going forward this will not be an issue. All reporting is now being reviewed prior to submission so that reporting requirements including proper period and proper information is reported correctly. We have proactively reached out to the PRF Reporting Help Desk to correct the reporting and communicated the noted reporting corrections needed.

2022-001 Sliding Fee Discounts Recommendation: Our auditors recommend we review and strengthen the current procedures in place for determining a patient’s financial responsibility for their visit using the sliding fee scale. This should include requiring a knowledgeable representative of the Organizations’ signature approval on the documentation received and the fee calculated and provided to the applicant. All applications should contain support for the individual’s income level or documentation of no income, and the determination of the resulting fee. Action Taken: This finding was repeated in 2022. Since this was a repeat finding, an internal audit was performed on all 2023 approved sliding fee applications to ensure compliance with our policy. Any corrective actions to the 2023 application were address and the facility’s sliding fee scale was modified to reflect proper authorization and proper segregation of duties going forward. Going forward, all sliding fee scale applications are now reviewed and authorized by the Manager of Revenue Cycle. Future auditing procedures have been put in place to review applications and adjusted, if needed, in a timely manner between now and the end of the year.

U.S. DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND SECURITY KANSAS ADJUANT GENERAL 2022-001: Disaster Grants – Public Assistance CFDA No. 97.036 Grant period: Year Ended December 31, 2022 Condition and Context: The County does not have a complete set of written cash management policies and procedures as required by the Uniform Guidance. The lack of written procedures did not result in any material noncompliance, fraud or abuse with respect to the major program. Criteria: The Uniform Guidance requires Non-Federal entities other than States, including those operating Federal programs as subrecipients of States, to follow the cash management standards set out at 2 CFR section 200.305. The County must have a complete set of written cash management policies, which conform to applicable Federal statutes and the cash management requirements identified in 2 CFR part 200. Cause: The County was unaware of the written cash management policy requirements required by the Uniform Guidance. Effect: An important component of internal controls is the existence of operating policies and procedures and that they are clearly understood and communicated. Without clear written policies and procedures, there is a higher risk of noncompliance with program requirements. Recommendation: Management should determine the scope of written policies needed for compliance with all federal programs and develop policies and procedures to comply with the Uniform Guidance. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions: Management agrees with the finding and recommendation. The County’s existing policies are currently under review by management and staff to determine what updates/changes are necessary in order to meet the Uniform Guidance requirements. Once any updates/changes are drafted, the policy will be presented to the Governing Body for review and approval.

The City of Delmont Governing Board is the contact for the corrective action plan for this finding. Because of the size of the City of Delmont, the City cannot support the internal controls needed to properly segregate duties. The City Council Members and Finance Office employees are aware of the problem. We will be working on some different policies and controls that will help minimize the future risk. This will be an ongoing process that will include input from the State Auditor's Office, talking to other municipalities and utilizing the council members in some of the financial controls.

Management understands that according to CFR 200.430(i), charges to federal awards for salaries and wages must be based on records that accurately reflect the work performed. The records must be supported by a system of internal controls which provides reasonable assurance that the charges are accurate, allowable, and properly allocated. Hood River County is currently working toward stronger internal controls, education of staff, and a more intense review process. It is expected that these changes will take time. The new Grants Committee is meeting monthly to keep grant management in the forefront of all those concerned.

1. Effective December 1, 2023, the President & CEO will implement a sound reporting process to ensure compliance with its reporting requirements. 2.As part of the reporting process, timelines and target dates will be implemented and additional communication within the CNC team will be established for all personnel to be aware of the deadlines and the importance of meeting the deadlines. The President & CEO and other department heads can monitor that the Organization is on pace to meet its various reporting deadlines including the submission of the Data Collection to the FAC website by the deadline established by the Uniform Guidance. It is anticipated that this additional oversight and communication can occur right away, but the deadlines for various information and reports required by the grantors occur monthly with the goal of submitting reports by the deadlines for 2023-2024 awards going forward. Management will need to monitor continuously to make sure that the Organization is making progress and meeting its reporting deadlines. Successful implementation would indicate that the Organization meets all its reporting deadlines going forward starting with the 2023-2024 awards and submitting its Data Collection and Audit Reporting Package nine months after year-end which would be September 30, 2024.
