Finding 2022-001 ? A. Activities Allowed or Unallowed, B. Allowable Costs / Cost Principles, E. Eligibility, and N. Special Tests and Provisions ? Material Weakness in Internal Controls Over Compliance Federal Program: COVID-19 Claims Reimbursement to Health Care Providers and Facilities for Testing Treatment, and Vaccine Administration for the Uninsured, Assistance Listing No. 93.461 (COVID-19 Uninsured Program) Federal Agency: U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) Pass-Through Award Period: January 1, 2022 through December 31, 2022 Views of responsible officials and planned corrective actions: Management agrees with the finding as reported. It is noteworthy that the COVID-19 Uninsured Program (the Program) ceases to accept claims for testing and treatment effective March 22, 2022. Claims for vaccinations were no longer accepted after April 5, 2022. Should HRSA funding be re-instated, the Network is committed to ensure proper internal controls over compliance are established to fully comply with the Program?s set terms and conditions.
