The system requires a formal electronic approval from managers. This was implemented fully by 3/1/2023.

Condition - Peak Vista determines the sliding fee discount charged to patients based on the patient's annual gross income and household size. We found two encounters where applications were not retained. Therefore, we could not determine if the sliding fee discount applied was in accordance with the guideline. We found two separate encounters where the patient did not meet the guidelines to receive a discount. We found one separate encounter where the patient was charged an incorrect co-pay. Recommendation - We recommend that Peak Vista's procedures be strengthened to ensure income is properly verified and adequately documented and retained. Peak Vista should strengthen processes surrounding monitoring of the program to ensure the Center's policies are consistently and properly applied. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions - Management agrees with the finding. Peak Vista has developed a plan for addressing this issue that includes updated procedures, training, and auditing. All teams engaged in the enrollment and eligibility process, including our Enrollment, Reception, and Billing teams will be retrained on the process with emphasis on proper documentation. Peak Vista management plans to incorporate into our quality assurance audits the documentation for single service date discount applications and provide feedback and retraining as necessary to staff as needed. Anticipated Date of Completion - In progress, estimated completion 12/31/2023. Action Taken - We have reviewed the recommendation and have a corrective procedure in place for addressing this issue. Will continue to monitor improvement. Person Responsible for Corrective Action Plan - Ryan Spillane, CFO

2022-001 (a) Comments on Findings and Recommendations: While management concurs with the finding and auditors? recommendation to enhance internal controls to ensure reports are filed timely, it believes the failure to report the Period 2 funds was not due to neglect but simply due to the untimely death of an employee. After the death of the Organization?s employee, management called the HRSA Provider Support Line, prior to the original due date of the reporting deadline, and was told that all reports had been filed. The Organization is currently working with HRSA to determine if an exception to the late filing can be obtained for reasonable cause based upon the previously mentioned circumstances. The Organization believes it has fully earned the Provider Relief Funds as it had sufficient lost revenues to support the need for the funding. (b) Action(s) Taken or Planned: Management is aware of the requirements related to the reporting submission. Management intends to implement proper procedures and policies for all grant reporting by June 30, 2023. Furthermore, internal controls over the program are being strengthened to prevent future non-compliance.

Finding 2022-2: Cash Management Cash Management: As is the case with most higher education institutions and governmental entities, the College has struggled with the COVID pandemic and its aftermath. Essential functions were disrupted, including several key accounting, finance, functions due to employees being out sick. Chief Dull Knife College had a discrepancy occur when drawing down funds in which it was done in error twice. The College had more than sufficient money in the bank to cover all of their expenses so this money was not used to cover any expenses. The College will be sure to assign duties to other employees to prevent this type of occurrence. Chief Dull Knife College takes the responsibility of drawing money from Grant Programs very crucial and will make all efforts and policies to ensure this type of error does not occur.

Corrective Action Plans: We concur with the auditor?s reasoning that the contract terms for services should have been modified to reflect the one-time retention payments for contracted custodial personnel. Retention of contracted custodial staff members was deemed by the District to be an essential part of its effort to ensure clean, sanitary facilities in response to COVID-19 pandemic. ? The District has several internal controls in place to determine and verify the allowability of ESSER expenditures, which include: ? Authorization by the Hall County Board of Education. ? Authorization by the Georgia Department of Education through the ESSER program?s consolidated application. ? Approval of all ESSER payments and purchase orders by relevant personnel familiar with the allowability requirements of the ESSER program. ? Approval of all ESSER contract agreements by relevant personnel familiar with the allowability requirement of the ESER program. ? Documented protocols for determining District personnel eligible to be paid through ESSER funds. The District will conduct a review of its contract with third party service providers to ensure compliance with Uniform Grant Guidance. The District currently has no further plans for the provision of additional retention payments to contracted personnel using ESSER funds, and no additional corrective action is anticipated to be required for the isolated instance.

Finding No. 2022-003 ? R2T4 Return Calculation Errors Repeat Finding: No ALN and Program: 84.007; 84.033; 84.063; 84.268 ? Student Financial Assistance Cluster Award Amount: $46,751,524 Award Number: N/A Award Year: 7/1/2021-6/30/2022 Criteria: For returns of Title IV Funding when a student does not complete the enrollment period for which funds were disbursed, the amount of earned Title IV grant or loan assistance is calculated by determining the percentage of Title IV grant or loan assistance that has been earned by the student and applying that percentage to the total amount of Title IV grant or loan assistance that was or could have been disbursed to the student for the payment period or period of enrollment as of the student's withdrawal date. Standard term-based institutions must always use the payment period as the basis for the determination. The unearned amount of Title IV assistance to be returned is calculated by subtracting the amount of Title IV assistance earned by the student from the amount of Title IV aid that was disbursed to the student as of the date of the institution's determination that the student withdrew (34 CFR 668.22(e)). Condition / Context: The auditor selected 21 unenrolled students who had Title IV returns for testing. For each student selected, the return amount was incorrectly calculated because the payment period was not used as the basis for the determination. Our sample was statistically valid. Cause: Unauthorized break periods and start dates were used to determine the base period for calculation. MATC's review process was not effective to detect and correct this error. Staff responsible for calculating R2T4 returns were not properly trained in the requirements. Questioned Costs: $5,097 Effect: MATC has determined that a total of 425 returns were incorrectly calculated, with an estimated net error of $5,097. Recommendation: We recommend MATC re-evaluate its review process for Title IV returns, and provide additional training for management and staff to ensure the calculations and compliance requirements are understood and that control processes are operating effectively to ensure proper returns. District Response: MATC agrees with the finding and has developed, documented and implemented a process and correct the student record errors, provide updated training and update R2T4 procedures to ensure proper calculation going forward.

Finding 2022-001 Federal program: Provider Relief Fund Assistance Listing Number 93.498 Statement of Condition For 2 of 40 samples of expenditures, the expenditure claimed represented an amount that was claimed twice by the Company in their expenditures reporting in the Provider Relief Fund portal. Additionally, Legacy claimed expenses that were duplicated within the reporting portal. The general distribution report for Legacy Health for Period 1 shows $35,760,843 in expenses applied against the PRF funds in the PRF portal report for Legacy as a consolidated entity. Separately, the stand-alone reports for targeted funds received by Emanuel Hospital & Health Center for Period 1, Legacy Silverton Medical Center for Period 1, Legacy Clinics, LLC for Period 1, and Legacy Meridian Park Hospital for Period 2 also include expenses totaling $12,291,293 that are included in the $35,760,843 listed in the consolidated report above. This results in duplicate reporting of the same expenditures. During testing over reporting and allowability it was observed that the lost revenues attributable to Coronavirus were reported in both the parent entity?s PRF reports on the general distribution payments and the subsidiary entities? PRF reports on the targeted distribution payments (i.e., lost revenues were duplicated). Lost revenues shown on the subsidiary reports as available to be applied against PRF that related to lost revenues also reported in the parent entity?s report were related to Emanuel Hospital & Health Center for Period 1 in the amount of $27,106,110 and Legacy Silverton Medical Center for Period 1 in the amount of $10,269,349. Actions Taken and Status As noted within the portal filing summary, for reporting period 1, Legacy consolidated COVID-19 expenses ($35,760,843) plus lost revenue ($150,037,450) totaled $185,798,293. Payments from the PRF totaled $89,818,954. As a result, there were sufficient qualifying lost revenues to receive and earn all PRF funds received, regardless of the questioned costs above. Therefore, management believes no repayment of PRF funds received would be required. Further, management considered the finding. Reporting for the Legacy parent reporting entity was based on the ?Post-Payment Notice of Reporting Requirements (6/11/21)?, which includes the following requirement: ?Reporting entities will submit consolidated reports.? Neither the methodology utilized by Legacy or application of the methodology advocated by KPMG result in repayment of any of the funds received from the PRF. Management is implementing a process to identify and resolve situations in which reporting requirements are inconclusive, in conflict, or ambiguous. Outside subject matter expertise will be accessed as needed.
