Corrective action plan: In December 2021, HHSC implemented the Texas Medicaid & Healthcare Partnership (TMHP) Provider Enrollment Management System (PEMS), an automated system that is the single tool for provider enrollment, re-enrollment, revalidation, and maintenance requests (maintaining and updating provider enrollment record information). HHSC is confident that as the LTC providers are enrolled and re-validated through PEMS, the errors for documentation will be corrected. The LTC process will mirror the sampled acute care providers which were found to be 100 percent compliant during this review, further supporting that the process is working. Implementation date(s): December 2021 Responsible persons: Deputy Associate Commissioner, Operations Management

Corrective action plan: In December 2022, the Federal Funds Office (FFO) identified all prime awards with a potential subaward action date of 10/1/2021 or later. FFO is in the process of determining which of these have issued subawards for which no Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act (FFATA) reporting has been received from the program areas. In addition, FFO has revised the subaward reporting templates for programs. The goal of the revised templates is to 1) clearly state instructions for the information requested and 2) delineate between a) earlier subawards that are being reported late and b) subawards that fall into the current reporting period. These changes will assist FFO in maintaining current reporting and bringing all past due reporting up to date. The goal is to have all past due subawards from 10/1/2021 forward submitted to FFATA Subaward Reporting System (FSRS) by 12/31/2023. Implementation date(s): December 1, 2022 Responsible persons: Director, Federal Funds

2022-005 Special Tests and Provisions: Public Housing New Admissions and Waiting List Public and Indian Housing Program ? CFDA Number 14.850 Material Weakness in Internal Control, Material Noncompliance Repeat Finding from June 30, 2021 reported as Finding 2021-003 Condition: New Admissions: We selected 5 new admissions (out of a population of 13) and noted the following: ? We are unable to test if the 5 new admissions were properly selected from the waiting list. Normally we are able to verify by checking where the applicant was on the wait list prior to selection and comparing the waiting list ranking (for date/time applied and preferences) to the application submitted. However, the Authority was not able to provide the applications from which would show the date and time they applied as well as any preferences selected so we were unable to determine if the new admissions were properly selected from the waiting list. Waiting list: We selected 25 applicants on the current waiting list (out of approximately of 700 applicants) and noted the following: ? We were unable to test the 25 applicants selected for testing. The Authority was unable to provide the application for each person on the waiting list and therefore we were unable to determine if the waiting list is ranked properly. As discussed with personnel, all active applications are received electronically (when the waiting list is open). The families create the application entering information such as family members, family income and family expenses. However, the on-line system appears to be flawed as it does not provide fields to indicate preferences (such as for being homeless or living locally) which if entered, would give the applicant points so they could be ranked higher on the waiting list and therefore selected faster. Once the applicant is selected to be housed, the Authority manually applies the applicable preferences (but at that point the Authority may have selected someone on the waiting list that should have been selected earlier and defeats the purpose of having preferences). The Authority has addressed this issue with Yardi and has sent notices to all active applicants asking them to update their preferences which the Authority will manually apply and generate the waiting list and the process is expected to be finalized before March 31, 2023. As a result of the above, applicants may not be ranked properly on the waiting list and applicants may be selected out of order. Auditor?s Recommendation: The Authority should review procedures and increase training to employees and reviewers to ensure that the Authority is in compliance with HUD rules for new admissions and waiting list maintenance. In addition, the Authority should implement a review procedure to make sure that all tenants are admitted in the proper order with proper supporting documentation. In addition, the Authority should continue to investigate the issues with the waiting list software. Action Taken: The Authority transitioned its waiting list to Yardi in March 2020. All HCV staff were trained on the use of Yardi?s Wait List module and subsequently trained on wait list administration such as eligibility, preferences, selection, and file processing. Considering the recent audit findings, the following actions items will be implemented in the specified time frame: ? The Authority has fully implemented the use of an electronic system to maintain the waitlist activity. The Yardi system inherently, with proper usage, provides a more thorough approach to waitlist maintenance. The errors noted were data entry errors not a system flaw. As such, a 100% QC will be conducted by the Senior Property Manager for each existing applicant. Task will be completed on or before April 30, 2023. ? The Authority will review all applicants and assign the correct preference status for each. Task will be completed on or before May 15, 2023. ? The site based waiting list will be merged into a centralized wait list and will be managed by the Occupancy Specialists and overseen by the Senior Property Manager. Waitlist merge will be completed on or before May 15, 2023. ? Provide additional hands-on training for staff on the proper wait list procedures and protocol. Hands-on training will include the use of Yardi?s wait list module as well as HUDs rules on wait list administration coupled with the guidance outlined in the Administrative Plan. Task will be completed on or before May 31, 2023. ? Implement a 100% quality control review of all applicant files. Task will be completed by an outside specialized compliance consulting company. The consulting company will report initial findings to the Authority and deficiencies will be cured before the final completion of leasing activities. Thereby reducing any additional findings with waiting list. Task will begin March 1, 2023 and will continue for one year. ? Repeated noted errors will be reported to the Senior Property Manager and additional hand?s-on training will be completed as necessary. ? Standard Operating Procedures on waitlist management will be developed and implemented. All staff will receive training on the procedures and will be expected to adhere to the protocol and will be made accountable for such work.

2022-004 Eligibility: Public Housing Tenant Files Public and Indian Housing Program ? CFDA Number 14.850 Material Weakness in Internal Control, Material Noncompliance Repeat Finding from June 30, 2021 reported as Finding 2021-002 Condition: Out of a total tenant population of approximately 300 tenant files, 25 files were selected for testing (but stopped testing after 18 files due to the volume of errors). Exceptions were noted as follows: ? 1 tenant file where the Authority was unable to locate and therefore could not test items such as Form 9986, personal declaration form, birth certificates, social security cards, income and deduction support, and EIV verification. The Authority indicated it was recreating the file. ? 2 tenant files with missing 214 affidavits. ? 1 tenant file where the 214 affidavit was not signed. ? 5 tenant files where the personal declaration form was not in the file. ? 1 tenant file where the Form 9886 was not in the file. ? 1 tenant file where the Form 9886 was signed approximately 3 months after the recertification date. ? 4 tenant files with income issues which may have changed the tenant rent amount: o 1 file where there was no support for the family contribution listed on the 50058. o 1 file where there was no support for the child support listed on the 50058. o 2 files where general assistance income (food stamps) was listed as income on the 50058 but should have been excluded. ? 4 tenant files with deduction issues which may have changed the tenant rent amount: o 1 file where the utility allowance of $91 was not on the 50058. This was corrected subsequently on an interim certification. o 1 file where the ?Disclosure of Information? form listed weekly child care expenses, but no child care expenses were deducted on the 50058 and there was no documentation or support in the file explaining if the child care expenses were deductible. o 1 file where the ?Recertification Summary? form listed weekly medical expenses, but no medical expenses were deducted on the 50058 and there was no documentation or support in the file explaining if the medical expenses were deductible. o 1 tenant file where the prior year utility allowance of $82 was used instead of the current utility allowance of $90. ? 1 file where the tenant is paying a flat rent of $686. However, the flat rent appears to be the amount from the previous year and it doesn?t appear that a current flat rent study was conducted or approved. ? 1 file where the dependent date of birth listed on the 50058 did not agree to the birth certificate. ? 2 files where the birth certificates were missing. ? 2 files where the social security cards were missing. ? 1 file where the EIV was not in the file. Auditor?s Recommendation: The Authority should correct the deficiencies noted in the tested files and utilize an ongoing quality control review process on the entire tenant population to ensure proper compliance with the requirements related to tenant eligibility. Ongoing staff training and timely management reviews should be utilized to ensure staff is aware of acceptable procedures. In addition, the Authority should review staffing levels, skill sets and case load. Action Taken: As was also instituted for HCV participant files, the Authority has instituted a checklist sheet that will occupy the front interior of all tenant files. This checklist will contain every document that is required to be placed in the tenant file. The Authority has and will affirm the use of its procedures, and continue to implement procedures to ensure all tenant files are maintained in accordance with policies and procedures. Additionally: ? All noted deficiencies will be corrected and cured on or before March 31, 2023. ? The Authority has also taken steps to stabilize staff by hiring a Property Manager and an Occupancy Specialist that will support the Public Housing Department. ? The Authority has implemented a 100% quality control review of all participant files. Task will be completed by an outside specialized compliance consulting company. The consulting company will report initial findings to the Authority and deficiencies will be cured before the final completion of certification. Thereby reducing any additional findings with tenant files. Task began February 1, 2023, and will continue for one year. ? Repeated noted errors will be reported to the Senior Property Manager and additional hand?s-on training regarding deficient items will be completed as necessary

2022-003 Special Tests and Provisions: HCV Failed Inspections Section 8 Housing Voucher Cluster (Section 8): Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers Program ? CFDA Number 14.871 Mainstream Vouchers ? CFDA Number 14.879 Material Weakness in Internal Control, Material Noncompliance Condition: Out of a total failed inspection population of approximately 540 units, 25 failed inspections were selected for testing. Exceptions were noted as follows: ? 1 Inspection and HAP abatement error where the tenant?s unit did not pass inspection and HAP payments were not withheld from July 2022 through February 2023. ? 1 HAP abatement error where the Authority pro-rated the HAP payment for August 2022 and abated the HAP payment for September through November 2022, but subsequently, whether due to a user or system error, HAP payments were paid out for the months from September through November 2022. ? 1 HAP abatement error where the Authority pro-rated the HAP payment for January & May 2022 and abated the HAP payment for February through April 2022, but subsequently, whether due to a user or system error, HAP payments were paid out for the months from January through May 2022. ? 1 HAP abatement error where the Authority didn't pro-rate the HAP payment withholding for June & December 2022 nor withhold the HAP payment for the month of July 2022. The Authority properly withheld the HAP payments for the months of August, September, October, and November 2022. Auditor?s Recommendation: The Authority should review procedures and increase training to employees and reviewers to ensure that the Authority is in compliance with HUD rules for HQS inspections. In addition, the Authority should implement a review procedure to make sure that HAP payments are properly abated when required. Action Taken: The Authority has moved to an electronic records management system for the inspections. A third party vendor has been procured to manage this process; such process will be overseen by the Housing Choice Voucher Manager. Additionally, the following action items has been implemented: ? The Authority has access to the vendor database on a 24 hour basis and the vendor also provides the Authority with a daily email of inspection data. Actual inspections will be printed and maintained to assure that greater than 10% of the inspections are readily available for each participant. ? The third-party vendor will perform quality control inspections of each completed inspection and make note of such in the electronic database. ? Warranted and recommended abatements will be entered into the database by the third-party vendor and subsequently monitored by the Housing Choice Voucher Manager ? Contract administration of the third-party vendor?s work will be monitored by the Housing Choice Voucher Manager. ? Training on HUD rules for HQS inspections will be completed on or before April 30, 2023

Exceptions were noted as follows: ? 1 preference point error where the applicant selected the involuntary displacement and homeless preference points on their pre-application, which agrees to the information in Yardi, but doesn?t agree to the generated waiting list. ? 7 preference point errors where the applicants? selected the residency preference points on their pre-applications, which agrees to the information in Yardi, but doesn?t agree to the generated waiting list. As a result of the above, applicants may not be ranked properly on the waiting list and applicants may be selected out of order.

2022-001 Eligibility: HCV Tenant Files Section 8 Housing Voucher Cluster (Section 8): Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers Program ? CFDA Number 14.871 Mainstream Vouchers ? CFDA Number 14.879 Material Weakness in Internal Control, Material Noncompliance Repeat Finding from June 30, 2021 (Finding 2021-001 and originally reported in 2017 as Finding 2017-001) Condition: Out of a total tenant population of approximately 1400 vouchers, 26 files were selected for testing. Exceptions were noted as follows: ? 1 utility allowance error where the utility allowance amount of $288 on the 52667 form was reported on the 50058 form for $298. This had no effect on the HAP rent. ? 2 214 affidavit errors where a member of the tenant?s household did not checkmark the box on their 214 forms indicating that they are either a U.S. citizen or a permanent resident. Based on the birth certificates, the member of the households were a U.S. citizen. ? 1 214 affidavit error where the 214 form was missing for a member of the tenant?s household. ? 1 income error where one of the tenant?s pay check was missing for the tenant?s income calculation. Basing the tenant?s wage income calculation on the support in the tenant file would not have changed the HAP rent. ? 1 HAP contract error where the HAP contract is missing from the tenant file. ? 2 9886 errors where members of the household over the age of 18 did not sign and date the 9886 forms. ? 2 deduction errors where members of two households, who were 18 years of age, received a $480 deduction. Correcting this error caused the HAP rent to decrease by $12 for each tenant. ? 1 lead base paint error where the lessor (landlord) did not sign the form to indicate that the information provided to the tenant is accurate. ? 2 EIV errors where the EIV form was not generated or were missing for the tenant?s annual recertification. ? 1 50058 error where the tenant?s childcare support was coded as unemployment benefits on the 50058. ? 1 tenant file unavailable for review due to Hurricane IAN, but no support could be provided. In addition, we also noted as part of our new admissions testing (21 files tested out of approximately 203 new admissions) the following: ? 1 tenant file unavailable for review due to Hurricane IAN, but no support could be provided. Auditor?s Recommendation: The Authority should correct the deficiencies noted in the tested files and utilize an ongoing quality control review process on the entire tenant population to ensure proper compliance with the requirements related to tenant eligibility. Ongoing staff training and timely management reviews should be utilized to ensure staff is aware of acceptable procedures. In addition, the Authority should review staffing levels, skill sets and case load. Action Taken: The Authority has implemented a 100% quality control review of all participant files. Task will be completed by an outside specialized compliance consulting company. The consulting company will report initial findings to the Authority and deficiencies will be cured before the final completion of certification. Thereby reducing any additional findings with tenant files. Task began February 1, 2023, and will continue for one year. Repeated noted errors will be reported to the HCV Manager and additional hand?s-on training regarding deficient items will be completed as necessary

CORRECTIVE ACTION PLAN FOR FINDINGS REPORTED UNDER UNIFORM GUIDANCE North Franklin School District No. JSl-162 September 1, 2021, through August 31, 2022 This schedule presents the corrective action planned by the District for findings reported in this report in accordance with Title 2 US. Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 200, Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (Uniform Guidance). Finding ref number: 2022-001 Finding caption: The District did not have adequate internal controls for ensuring compliance with wage rate requirements. Name, address, and telephone of District contact person: Cindy Sital, Business Manager PO Box 829 Connell, WA 99326 (509)-234-2021 Corrective action the auditee plans to take in response to the finding: This was North Franklin School District?s first federally funded construction project. In previous years, construction projects have been state or locally funded. The District did comply with requirements for state or locally funded construction projects. This particular project was funded through ESSER funds which are considered federal funds. Federal funds require a different set of guidelines. In the future, if the District uses federal funds for construction projects, the District will include a provision that the contractor or subcontractors comply with requirements to submit to the District weekly, for each week in which any contract work is performed, certified payroll reports. These reports will included a copy of the payroll and a signed statement of compliance. The District will also include inserting the required prevailing wage provisions into the contract. Anticipated date to complete the corrective action: 05/31/2023

2022-002 Activities Allowed / Un-Allowed Material Weakness/Material Noncompliance This finding was identified during the QAD review that was performed in 2022 and has been corrected as of June 30, 2022, with prior period and current year adjustments. The current revised indirect cost allocation was approved by HUD QAD in July 2022. Indirect costs are being reviewed on a quarterly basis and adjusted as needed. The Comptroller, Jennifer Yager corrected this finding in October 2022. Jennifer can be reached at 203-596-2640.

2022-006 Special Tests and Provisions ? Operating Transfers and Administrative Fees Material Weakness / Material Noncompliance This finding was corrected in October 2022. The interfund transfers were not initially set up correctly in the PHA-Web software. In October 2022 the Comptroller worked with PHA-Web to fix this issue. Jennifer can be reached at 203-596-2640.

2022-004 Special Tests and Provisions ? CARES Act Funding Material Weakness / Material Noncompliance The Housing Authority completed modifications to the main office building with CARES Act funding. The Section 8 specialist employees work in the main office building with the administrative staff of the Housing Authority. Prior to COVID, the Section 8 specialists were working in cubicles which were not compliant with the CDC guidelines of distance. CARES Act funding was used to build separate offices and install an air filtration system. The rest of the main office was only modified to stay uniform with the other modifications such as painting and new flooring. The amount of the total project charged to the HCV program was in relation to what improvements were made as well as which employees were occupying the space. Effective July 2022, Section 8 is leasing this section of the main office, which was approved by HUD QAD. This finding has been corrected. The Comptroller, Jennifer Yager, worked with the outside auditors as well as the CFO consultant to resolve the posting errors. Jennifer can be reached at 203-596-2640.

CORRECTIVE ACTION PLAN YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2022 Finding No. 2022-002: Incomplete Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards- Material Weakness and Material Noncompliance Finding: During our audit, we identified a grant that is required to comply with the applicable requirements of 2 CFR Part 200 and thus should have been included in the Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards. Once this grant was properly included, the Organization exceeded $750,000 in qualifying federal expenditures thus meeting the requirement for a Uniform Guidance audit to be conducted. Corrective Actions Taken or Planned: Management has hired a Director of Grants Financial Management who is heading a team to ensure effective management and compliance with all awards in the agency. In addition, management has acquired an award management system and implemented new processes to identify Federal awards. These processes consist of (1) clearly identifying Federal awards on the new Grant Code Form, (2) conducting new award kick-off meetings within the Awards Management, Budget, and Compliance team, and (3) tracking all awards on an award and contracts matrix, as well as in the new awards management software system. For each new award, a Grant Code Form is created. The form allows the Awards Management, Budget, and Compliance team to direct the Accounting team to create a grant code for tracking purposes in the accounting financial system. When the Awards Management and Budget team complete the form, the grant will be clearly identified as a federal grant. In addition, when KIND receives a new award, the Awards Management, Budget, and Compliance team conduct kick-off meetings within the team to discuss award financial, programmatic and compliance requirements. During this meeting the team completes an awards summary template that clearly identifies an award as a Federal award and any related compliance and other requirements. In addition to the processes mentioned, the Awards Management, Budget and Compliance team has created a new contracts and awards tracking matrix. The awards tracking matrix identifies Federal grants, along with any related award requirements and other identifying information. This matrix is maintained and updated by the Awards Management, Contracts and Compliance Officer and reviewed by the Director, Grants Financial Management on a regular basis. The review includes existing procedures related to awards management and monitoring of processes. This is on-going and already in progress. In addition to the above-mentioned processes KIND will do the following: continuously review existing processes around clearly identifying Federal awards and make adjustments to strengthen internal controls as needed; review and discuss with the awards management software vendor, additional improvements that can be made to the system to better identify and report Federal awards and review the current awards matrix and make additional improvements that will better identify and track Federal awards.
