Criteria: Recipients of federal awards must follow the costs principles set out at 2 CFR section 200.430 to substantiate compensation and other purchases charged to a federal program. “Charges to Federal awards for salaries and wages must be based on records that accurately reflect the work performed.

TCA Health will address the Allowable Costs and Activities first, by hiring additional accounting professionals both internally and as third- party consultants to support the grants management process in place at TCA. As part of that work, the third-party consultant will review the Time and Effort reporting policy and model. TCA currently feels that what the process that they utilized to allocate salary and wage expense to the grant related to this finding was allowable from a Uniform Grants Guidance perspective, however they were not compliant with their policy and will work to revise their policy to less restrictive (although still in compliance with the UGG). The iCFO will create greater monitoring of the month-end process as it relates to the allocation of payroll costs to be consistent with the personnel activity reports and the Health Center’s revised policy.

Condition: Refugee case files, specifically related to the Afghan Placement and Assistance Program, lacked certain documentation required by the Cooperative Agreements.

Audit Finding Reference: 2021-006 Cross Training of Staff and Review of Responsibilities Management’s View and Planned Corrective Action: Management does not agree with this deficiency. We do agree that Management is actively working on some changes as improvements are made each year to improve efficiency. Each position in the Business Office other than HR has been crossed trained with one-to-two other team members. Cross training throughout the business office was implemented in 2016 and has continued to exist. Each position has the ability to have someone step in case of emergency, elongated vacations and when/if someone resigns or is terminated. The positions are not covered in entirety, but the important items that must be dealt with can be and are accomplished. Examples are as such: Accounts Payable is covered by our Special Ed Bookkeeper, and other staff have the ability to review manifest once generated. Payroll has been covered by the Assistant Business Administrator when vacations or vacancies have existed, Grants can be covered by the Business Administrator when vacations or vacancies have existed. The Assistant Business Administrator is covered by the Business Administrator during vacations and vacancies. Each position continues to do their own assigned job duties and takes on the other tasks as necessary. The work may not get completed in the same timely fashion as if the actual staff member holding the position was there because they are also completing their own tasks, but the work does get accomplished. When there are multiple turnovers and/illness occurring at the sometime it makes it challenging even when cross training exists. Every year the Business Administrator reviews workloads and reassesses if changes should occur to help create efficiencies and create equivalent workload between all staff members. While some positions have more deadlines than others it can appear that their plates are larger than others, but frequently tasks are divided out throughout the team to help alleviate this. These discussions are brought forth to COLT, the Senior Leadership team at the SAU, and restructuring is finalized at that time.
