Recommendations: It is recommended that management update the internal calculation of lost revenues for 2020 and 2021 to deduct the unallowable costs to demonstrate and support that there are no reimbursements for the same expenses or lost revenue. In the event the Medical Center receives a request from the federal agency or another party to audit the use of the funds, the most accurate and up-to-date information should be available. Actions: Henry County Medical Center claimed as COVID expenses for HRSA reporting the cost of additional drugs used in treating COVID patients for reporting periods 1-3. This was based on information received by management at the beginning of the COVID pandemic. It was later learned that Medicare provided additional payments on claims related to patients being treated for COVID. This additional reimbursement was to help offset some of the additional costs incurred by providers. Internal worksheets calculating lost revenue and COVID 19 expenses have been updated to accurately reflect lost revenue and expenses related to COVID 19 patient care. This change had no impact on the accounting for all funds received during the reporting periods.
Recommendations: Management should adjust the internal lost revenue calculations to address the noted item for lost revenue calculations for 2020 and 2021. In the event the Medical Center receives a request from the federal agency or another party to audit the use of the funds, the most accurate a...
Recommendations: Management should adjust the internal lost revenue calculations to address the noted item for lost revenue calculations for 2020 and 2021. In the event the Medical Center receives a request from the federal agency or another party to audit the use of the funds, the most accurate and up-to-date information should be available to support the use of the funds. Actions: Henry County Medical Center owns a Rural Health Clinic and receives additional reimbursement from the State of Tennessee for treatment of Medicaid patients. This additional reimbursement is reported on internal financial statements as “Other Operating Revenue.” When HRSA reporting was prepared for 2020 and 2021, these funds were not included as part of Net Patient Revenue thus impacting the loss of revenue calculation. Internal worksheets calculating lost revenue compared to 2019 have been updated to accurately reflect lost revenue. This change had no impact on the accounting for all funds received during the reporting periods.

2023-06 Material Weakness: During annual audit testing it was found that one member of the GEODC staff was preparing and reviewing federal grant reports. The reports did not accurately reflect the grant activity. Incorrect reporting led EDA to close the grant without question and results in a questioned cost of $131,986 and a material weakness in internal control over compliance pertaining to Reporting being reported in the audit reporting package. Recommendation: It was recommended GEODC improve controls over compliance for reporting by designating grant reporting to one member of the GEODC staff and review of the reports to a different staff member. The staff member directly involved in the financial accounting function of GEODC should perform one of these duties. Action Taken: GEODC staff are in agreement with the recommendation and will improve controls over compliance for reporting by designating grant reporting to one member of the GEODC staff and review of the reports to a different staff member, making sure the staff member directly involved in the financial accounting function of GEODC performs one of these duties.
