U.S. Department of Health and Human Services 2021-008 Immunization Cooperation Agreements – Assistance Listing No. 93.268 Condition and Context: While testing allowable costs relating to payroll expenditures, transactions were identified that could not be appropriately re-calculated per the amount that was charged to the grant. The County was not able to provide support for payroll expenditure amounts charged to the grant on an individual employee basis. Recommendation: We recommend management should review the process of timekeeping for grant eligible employees for daily time input, as well as grant authorized wages. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: The County will develop a written process for time tracking for grant-eligible employees and will provide training to grant-funded departments in order to ensure that all payroll expenditures charged to the grant are eligible, authorized, and charged on an individual employee basis. Project codes in Infor will allow salary distribution and personnel information to be assigned to each grant. Where possible, this function will be used to assist in supporting the amounts charged to the grant program. The general accounting department will work with departments to ensure they are properly using Labor Allocations to keep track of individuals assigned to particular grants along with documentation of time worked and pay received.

County Judge/Executive’s Response: The Breathitt County Fiscal Court has hired a new County Treasurer since the completion of the 2021 audit who will ensure stronger internal controls are maintained in her official capacity and will be working with additional staff members, such as the Finance Officer and Occupational Tax Administrator, to segregate duties in a more controlled method. The newly hired County Treasurer will work to resolve the following issues by the end of the calendar year in the following manner. Failure to perform accurate reconciliations - the new Treasurer has already begun to perform accurate reconciliations at the end of each month. Tax obligations not paid timely - the new Treasurer has already implemented a system for paying obligations by the deadline. Failure to maintain accounting records - the Former Treasurer began the process of reporting & record maintenance for the Justice Center Corporation Fund and the new Treasurer is continuing with this reporting method. This was implemented at the end of 2022. Failure to prepare financial statements timely - the new Treasurer will complete the annual statement in accordance with KRS 68.020 in a timely manner. Failure to prepare an accurate Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (SEFA) - the new Treasurer will complete SEFA's accurately. Disbursements issues: o Segregation of duties is currently being reviewed and the new Treasurer is establishing a process for review and approval of disbursements that will allow for stronger internal controls. New system will be in place by the end of the calendar year. The Breathitt County Fiscal Court has also begun utilizing [software name redacted] as the primary accounting software which will allow for more consistent tracking of purchase orders and permit better tracking of obligated expenses. Supporting documentation will be kept for all transactions, including credit card transactions. Invoices will be paid in a timely manner - great strides have already been made in this area with the hiring of the new Treasurer but will continue to improve during the remainder of the calendar year 2023. The Breathitt County Fiscal Court adopted the KY Model Procurement code in August 2023. With the hiring of a new Applicant Agent in January 2023 and a new Treasurer in July 2023 proper bid documentation is already being maintained and procurement policies are being followed. An encumbrance list will be maintained by the new Treasurer. Payroll issues: o Annual pay rate lists will be maintained & approved at the first regular meeting of the Breathitt County Fiscal Court each January. New County Treasurer will ensure that payments moving forward do not exceed statutory maximums. All lump sum payments made to employees will be issued using W2's, moving forward, beginning in November 2023.
In the future, we will develop a spreadsheet to calculate lost revenues as necessary based on applicable guidance. We will be sure to include this calculation in the reporting submission even if we feel expenditures are adequate to cover the federal award received.

We used the initial PRF reporting guidelines that indicated that the PRFs could be used to maintain health care service delivery. Due to limited staff, including staff turnover, and the need to focus our efforts on maintaining health care delivery including caring for COVID‐19 patients, we were not able to keep up with the continuously changing guidance pertaining to the use of the PRF. For future federal funding, we plan to more closely monitor the guidelines surrounding the funding and work with outside consultants for new federal programs or those programs that have constantly changing guidance.

Recommendation: We recommend management to assign a person that verifies all the documents are in place before processing the determination of eligibility. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: The existing protocol involves a checklist that staff complete before submitting the file for intake review and prior to the electronic transfer of the file to the site. To address the identified issues, we are reinforcing this process, including retraining staff and emphasizing the importance of meticulous scanning and uploading of documents. For errors that occurred during occupancy, we will reiterate and enhance the interim and annual recertification processes. Staff will undergo retraining, and we will intensify the quality control measures for file management to prevent such discrepancies. Name(s) of the contact person(s) responsible for corrective action: Troy Lynch (Intake) and Diana Pop (Occupancy) and Christen H. Gore (Occupancy). Planned completion date for corrective action plan: The enhanced staff training, along with the additional processes, will be implemented before August 31, 2023.

Recommendation: We recommend management to assign a person that verifies all the documents are in place before processing new move ins. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: To address this issue, as of 2017, the Intake unit initiated a practice of saving all selection letters as a backup. It's important to note that the audit focused on files predating this backup system, when no duplicate copies were available. To prevent such issues in the future, a comprehensive intake checklist is now completed by staff before transferring files for review, and the reviewing staff will verify the inclusion of these essential documents in the file.

Finding Number: 2021-006 Planned Corrective Action: The previous Executive Director was supposed to do quality control reviews on HCV files, however that was not being done. At present, the Coordinator of Housing Programs and Administration is assigned to do quality controls on a percentage of files touched within the previous 30 days. Each month, a number of files will be reviewed. Also, the Housing Authority has purchased a complete training academy as part of the Yardi software system that the Housing Authority has used since 2017. The training academy offers on-line courses in each of the areas of the HCV process and will be assigned all training modules that apply to the HCV process.

Finding Number: 2021-005 Planned Corrective Action: Housing Quality Standards inspection had been contracted for since the pandemic began in 2020, and the agreement had not included quality control or reinspection for failed inspections. That was supposedly corrected but for much of 2021, HQS inspections had been suspended due to the pandemic. Since that time failed, HQS is tracked by each staff person who has that unit in their caseload, and they assure a reinspection is automatically scheduled and notice sent to the landlord and tenant. If the unit fails a second inspection, in most cases the HAP is abated, or a formal extension is granted on occasion. The plan going forward is to bring the inspection process back in-house within the next year when the existing contract expires. An outside contractor will still be used for inspection when Housing Choice Vouchers are used in the AMHA owed units. All files will be reviewed to ensure compliance. Anticipated Completion Date: July 31, 2023 Responsible Contact Person: Stan W. Popp, Acting Executive Director
