Finding Number 2022-208: State Opioid Response program performance progress reports did not have documentation to support completion of a review for accuracy and compliance prior to submission.Federal Program: 93.788 - Opioid STRRelated to Prior Finding: N/AAgency?s view: The Department agrees with this finding.The contract manager attests that she did, in fact, review, edit, re-review and ultimately approve the 5 program performance reports to the grantor. The reports were either emailed to the Program Manager or uploaded in Teams for her review/approval. The auditor was provided documentation of these reviewed documents, including editing notes by that manager. Additionally, one-on-one supervision notes between the person submitting the reports and the contract manager validate that these reports were, in fact, reviewed and approved prior to submission to the grantor. The federal funder does not require this type of documentation of review/approval and the program was not aware of this CFR requirement. The program does, however, agree, that review and approval of these reports was not documented and that a corrective action plan is warranted.Corrective Action: Beginning April 1, 2023, all required federal reports will include thefollowing statement, which will be signed and dated electronically by the approving reviewerbefore the report is submitted:?
