• The IDHS has logged Integrated Eligibility System (IES) enhancement request ILIES-279032 to implement Telephonic Signature for the Responsible Service Payee (RSP) signature. Since COVID, much of the IDHS’ interactions are done via telephone. As such, the RSP Signature page is mailed to customers when the updates are completed by phone. By implementing Telephonic Signature for the RSP, the IDHS will no longer have to generate correspondence to customers and have them return the signature page. • The IDHS is in the process of adding Family and Resource Center (FCRC) TANF Queues to its call center. When a customer with active TANF calls in, the caller will be routed to the local office TANF Queue. TANF workers within each FCRC will answer the calls and manage the TANF. This will improve the IDHS’ tracking and follow-up with TANF customers. • Communication will be made with regional administrators regarding the 04/25/2023 Action Memo “Uploading the Responsibility and Service Plan Signature Page into the Electronic Case Record.”

Response: The District’s prior auditor declined to provide services for 20-21 and 21-22 due to a scheduling overload. Finding a different auditor to provide services is difficult. The previous auditor was located closer to the District. The newly contracted auditors are located more than 560 miles across the state. That coupled with a 100% change in Business Office staff in an 8-month period created delays in submitting materials requested by the auditor and therefore delayed the starting and completion of the audit. A three-year contract with the current auditors has been negotiated and the audit for FY 22-23 started immediately after the completion of this audit.

Due to high turnover within multiple departments tasked with administering Financial Aid and the time required for the training of new staff on the aid disbursement process, errors were made due to lack of knowledge of the rules.

In addition, the director’s are actively working on improvements to the ERP system, “Banner”, so that errors that were due to human activities are reduced or eliminated.
