On November 4, 2025, UK HealthCare (UKHC) Information Technology implemented a system configuration change within Epic related to the NFV Sliding Scale settings. This change restricts the application of Federal Poverty Level (FPL) discounts to accounts with a status of “Approved for Financial Assistance,” thereby preventing discounts from being applied to accounts that have not been formally approved. In addition, on December 8, 2025, a new status option— “Did Not Apply for FA”—was added to the status field within the FPL table in Epic. This option is to be selected when patients do not apply for financial assistance, ensuring that status fields are never left incomplete or blank. NFVCHC staff were notified of this update and instructed to consistently complete this step. Planned Process Improvements:NFVCH leadership will conduct a comprehensive review of the NFV and JB clinic policies and procedures related to Financial Assistance Program (FAP) eligibility determination and reevaluation. This review will ensure that: FAP documentation does not include overlapping coverage periods Effective and termination dates are properly validated Internal processes align with system requirements and safeguard against data inconsistencies Ongoing Monitoring / Sustainability Plan: To strengthen oversight and ensure longterm control effectiveness, UKHC Enterprise Revenue Cycle will incorporate into its monthly audit procedures the following reviews: A report identifying accounts with blank or incomplete status entries on the Federal Poverty Level table A review of overlapping FPL coverage dates Monitoring for patients who have both UK and NFV Charity Care, ensuring the correct NFV FPL table is applied for NFVCH accounts This continuous monitoring will ensure system controls operate as designed and that corrective actions remain effective over time. Responsible Party: Larry Quillen – Executive Director, NFVCH Anne Wray - ERC Revenue Assurance Director/UKHC Target Completion Date: Completed on November 4, 2025, with additional enhancements on December 9, 2025

Finding 2025-001 The College concurs with the audit finding that students who withdrew at the conclusion of the fall 2024 semester were not reported to the National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS) within the required 60-day reporting timeframe. This occurred as a result of two primary factors: (1) the enrollment reporting schedule with the National Student Clearinghouse was outdated, and (2) the 60-day reporting requirement was not clearly defined within Allegheny’s internal processes. Allegheny recognizes the importance of timely and accurate reporting of students’ enrollment status to NSLDS. Enrollment rosters and updated enrollment statuses are regularly reported to NSLDS to ensure that changes affecting loan repayment obligations and in-school deferment eligibility are accurately reflected within the Department of Education’s records. The College is committed to strengthening its procedures to ensure continued compliance with federal reporting requirements. The College will continue to adhere to NSLDS reporting processes and required timelines. Through enhanced collaboration among the Financial Aid, Registrar’s, and Provost’s Offices, Allegheny will fully align and formalize enrollment reporting procedures. The College will review, verify, and update reporting schedules to ensure accuracy and compliance with applicable requirements. Specifically, the College will annually review its enrollment reporting schedule with the National Student Clearinghouse to ensure that enrollment data is transmitted to the National Student Loan Data System (NSLDS) at least once every 60 calendar days, in accordance with federal reporting requirements. For students who notify the College of their intent to leave at the upcoming conclusion of a semester, the College will report the student as enrolled on the final enrollment report for that term and will then manually update the student's enrollment status to withdrawn within a few days of the report’s submission, rather than waiting for the next scheduled enrollment transmission, to ensure timely and accurate reporting. Allegheny College will implement quarterly review of processes established to ensure compliance. This proactive approach will ensure ongoing compliance with federal regulations. In addition, Allegheny College is developing a secondary review process for each enrollment report submission to identify students with recent or pending enrollment status changes. This review will serve as a quality control check to ensure that students whose enrollment status has changed since the prior reporting period are accurately identified and updated, thereby strengthening oversight and ensuring timely and compliant reporting to NSLDS.

Corrective Action Plan: The University is committed to ensuring compliance with all federal, institutional, and programregulations. The University continues to enhance its internal controls, policies and procedures toensure the appropriate documentation to support is maintained. Primary Control Enhancements. During the next Annual Performance Report (APR) reporting cycle, the AVP for Student Affairs, TRIO and Well-being as well as the respective TRIO program director will correct the inaccurately reported Project Entry Date and First Date of Postsecondary Enrollment for affected participants. These data elements are editable within the APR system and will be updated to align with official institutional and program records. Supporting Controls and Training. To support ongoing compliance, the Federal TRIO Programs have strengthened internal controls and will continue to conduct annual reviews of policies, procedures, and internal controls to ensure alignment with federal regulations and grant administration best practices. To ensure consistent implementation, monthly staff trainings are conducted using the TRIO General Guidelines. In addition, TRIO staff will continue to participate in local and national professional development opportunities to enhance grant management knowledge and standardize practices related to program administration and federal reporting.

Corrective Action Plan: The University is committed to ensuring compliance with all federal, institutional, and program regulations. The University continues to enhance its internal controls, policies, and procedures to ensure the appropriate documentation to support is maintained, and to ensure that level of effort is appropriately documented and reported. To this end the University enlisted the support of Moore & Van Allen and associates law firm to support in developing enhanced policies, procedures, and training modules to support an increased level of compliance support. Moore & Van Allen is a wellrespected international law firm that specializes in reporting compliance and compliance training.To address the specific audit concerns Moore & Van Allen in conjunction with the JCSU executive cabinet, Government Sponsored Programs, the President and Board of Trustees to develop these policies, supporting procedures and training modules. These policies have been approved as of the January 15, 2026 Board of Trustees meeting: Time and Effort Reporting Policy, Government- Sponsored Equipment and Property Management Policy, Post-Award Management Policy, Grant Records Management Policy and Revised Extra Compensation for Faculty and Staff Policy. The level of effort reporting process has been modified to a consistent reporting for all campus awards. Level of effort reports are done by academic term, and the reports are due within 60 days following the end of the term. The Office of Government Sponsored Programs (“GSPAR”) has implemented monitoring and tracking measures to all reports are captured and completed according to federal guidelines. A system of multiple reviews has been implemented to help in reducing errors in reporting and increase efficiency in timeliness of the reports. Additionally, GSPAR intends to work closely with the Human Resources division to ensure accurate and efficient Time and Effort reporting. To address this concern, the Payroll unit has been reorganized into the Business and Finance Office to streamline communication and time and effort report fidelity between Payroll and GSPAR. In addition, the University mandated participation in compliance training for all faculty and staff; participants are required to submit an acknowledgment that they participated in the training and are aware of the compliance requirements. The mandatory training will occur annually for the university and all new grant award recipients will receive this training as part of their grant startup process. All GSPAR employees will also participate in training related to time and effort and allowable costs compliance, annually. Specific to the TRIO programs, as the result of a re-organization in February 2025 the University created a new position: Assistant Vice President (AVP) for Student Affairs, TRIO, and Well-being. This role will oversee Time and Effort Reporting, Annual Performance Report submissions, and financial transactions, ensuring accuracy and adherence to all relevant policies, regulations, and procedures. Additionally, this position will support professional development initiatives to enhance grant management and compliance. The AVP will also support university efforts to conduct regular program reviews to ensure proper documentation supporting TRIO eligibility and adherence to program requirements. To improve program knowledge and standardize practices, TRIO personnel will continue engaging in professional development offered locally and nationally. Internally, the TRIO Leadership Team (TRIO Project Directors and SVP of Student Enrollment & Retention Management) established TRIO Professional Development Day, a two-day training designed specifically for JCSU TRIO staff. These sessions provide guidance on university policies, financial compliance, Time and Effort reporting, effective record-keeping, and data management. The event also includes a roundtable discussion to promote collaboration and shared learning across programs. In addition, the TRIO Leadership Team will continue to explore best practices from high-functioning TRIO programs. To enhance communication and strengthen internal controls, the TRIO Leadership Team implemented monthly TRIO Program meetings. These meetings, involving TRIO Project Directors and the Senior Vice President of Strategic Enrollment and Retention Management, facilitate discussions on compliance, streamline processes, and support policy development. Additionally, the TRIO Leadership Team established monthly interdepartmental meetings among TRIO programs, the Division of Government Sponsored Programs and Research, and the Division of Business and Finance to further ensure alignment with institutional and federal requirements. Human Resources will also participate in future meetings to review Time and Effort Reporting procedures. TRIO Project Directors maintain ongoing communication with the Department of Education Program Officer, seeking written guidance on allowable costs, staffing adjustments, and fund reallocations, when necessary. Continuous monitoring and evaluation will ensure the effectiveness of these corrective actions, allowing the university to identify areas for ongoing improvement and maintain full compliance with all regulatory requirements Anticipated Completion Date: December 2026

Corrective Action Plan: To address the deficiencies identified in Finding 2025-004, the University has implemented and continues to enhance corrective actions focused on automating loan disbursement notifications, standardizing notification content and timing, strengthening documentation and audit trails, and institutionalizing quality assurance oversight to ensure sustained compliance with federal notification requirements. Primary Control Enhancements. Loan disbursement notifications to the student for Subsidized, Unsubsidized, and Graduate PLUS Loans are now system-generated through Ellucian Colleague, providing automated delivery and a documented audit trail. Notifications are issued upon disbursement processing and delivered through system-supported modalities, including electronic communication and student portal updates. Ellucian Colleague retains a system-generated audit trail documenting the timing and content of each notification, strengthening the University’s ability to demonstrate compliance with federal requirements. This system-based approach eliminates reliance on third-party notification tools previously used and brings direct control of notification sequencing, content, and documentation within the University’s financial aid infrastructure. Supporting Controls and Training. The University has revised the Parent PLUS Loan notification process to ensure that required disbursement information—including the date, amount, and type of loan—is provided directly within the notification communication. While Parent PLUS notifications currently require initiation through a controlled manual process, procedures have been amended to ensure timely issuance, content accuracy, and supervisory oversight during this interim period. The University is actively working with the Ellucian Colleague implementation team to further automate Parent PLUS Loan disbursement notifications and eliminate manual triggering. Until full automation is achieved, documented procedures and quality assurance reviews will serve as compensating controls to ensure compliance with notification timing and content requirements. Monitoring and Quality Assurance. The University established and maintains a formal quality assurance framework to monitor loan disbursement notifications. A quality assurance calendar requires reviews at least twice per semester to confirm that notifications are issued within required regulatory timeframes, include all required elements, and are sent to the appropriate recipient (student or parent). As part of ongoing monitoring, the University has conducted multiple quality assurance reviews of loan disbursement notifications. These reviews have demonstrated improved compliance with notification timing and content requirements while also identifying isolated system sequencing issues that were promptly addressed through configuration updates and enhanced scheduling controls within Ellucian Colleague. Sustained Oversight. Any discrepancies identified through quality assurance reviews are documented, corrected, and evaluated to inform process refinement, system configuration, and staff training.

This change did go into effect on September 19, 2024. However, this provider was an anomaly. The facility was a Residential Treatment Facility which was Title IV-E eligible until they received Psychiatric Residential Treatment Facility (PRTF) status in August of 2024, however, they did not provide DOHHS documentation until February 2025. Immediate action was taken by a call ticket to the Technical Call Center to ensure that the PRTF was not continuing to show as IV-E eligible. The staff from the Division of Regulatory Management will continue, as part of their annual licensing review will ensure wvPATH provider records are updated to reflect timely licensing status as well as ensuring that child specific agreements do not lapse.

To ensure staff are well-equipped for these changes, the Division of Professional Development has released a suite of resources, including procedural Desk Guides and supplementary YouTube training videos. Supervisors are required to present them during monthly unit meetings. To finalize the process, every worker must provide a formal sign-off to confirm they have received and understood the updated procedures regarding data exchanges. 85

2025-009 REPORTING SIGNIFICANT DEFICIENCY IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER COMPLIANCE, OTHER MATTERS OFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR (GO) Assistance Listing Number: 21.027 The GO fully believes that its documentation and support for obligations and expenditures incurred under its SLFRF funding is available and appropriate to support all items, though recognizes there were challenges and delays in its ability to provide the information to our auditors due to miscommunications and need to coordinate across multiple agencies. That said, the GO recognizes that certain errors were noted in the amounts reported in the quarterly expenditure reports and is committed to enhancing its processes going forward. In particular, as the new administration has had a chance to become more familiar with the reporting processes and its relationship with the third-party firm responsible for assisting the State’s creation and submission of its expenditure reporting. In particular, the GO will ensure that each quarterly expenditure report includes a clearly defined project schedule that allows ample time for the full review and confirmation of information and data included prior to the report’s due date. Additionally, the third-party firm has added additional resources to support the reporting periods and developed new templates to better track and summarize the information aggregated across all agencies spending SLFRF funds to better enable review and identification of any errors or questions.

The overpayment was established and coded correctly based on the ALJ decision in September 2024, even though an overpayment memo was not available. In October 2024, the Benefit Payment Control Overpayment Policy was revised to include instructions to create overpayment memos for all lower and higher authority appeal decisions which result in an overpayment of benefits. Benefit & Technical Support unit staff, who process appeal decisions, were made aware of the requirement.

2025-007 SPECIAL TESTS AND PROVISIONS: UI BENEFIT PAYMENT WORKFORCE WEST VIRGINIA (WFWV) Assistance Listing Number: 17.225 WFWV acknowledges and agrees with the finding that Benefit Accuracy Measurement (BAM) cases were not reviewed and closed within the time limits established by ET Handbook No. 395. During the performance year, the BAM team faced significant staffing challenges, which delayed the timely completion of audits and restricted the availability of personnel for reviewing completed cases. To address this issue, WFWV has implemented the following corrective measures: 1. Trained a support staff member in November 2024 to assist BAM analysts with administrative tasks, including setting up new case files, issuing second and third requests for information, and calculating wages based on employer-provided verification forms. This support enables analysts to dedicate more time to core investigative work. 2. Hired an additional BAM analyst in November 2025 to reduce management’s workload in completing audits, allowing them to prioritize the review of completed cases. Furthermore, as of January 2026, management and the BAM support staff now use a shared redesigned spreadsheet to track the progress of assigned cases. This tool provides real-time visibility into case statuses, ensuring more effective monitoring of completion timeliness and preventing future delays.

2025-006 REPORTING – FEDERAL FUNDING ACCOUNTABILITY AND TRANSPARENCY ACT (FFATA) DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION (DEP) Assistance Listing Number: 15.252 The finding states that the DEP did not report subaward information in accordance with reporting requirements. Specifically, two reports selected for testing were not reported in a timely manner. Based on the previous year’s finding, DEP implemented standard operating procedures on January 24, 2024, to ensure compliance with the FFATA reporting requirements. DEP concurs that the two reports found to be in noncompliance were, in fact, submitted after the required deadline. This oversight was primarily due to the understaffing of the Sub Grants Unit at the time these reports were to be submitted. DEP currently has sufficient standard operating procedures to ensure compliance with FFATA reporting. DEP will temporarily reassign staff responsibilities to ensure reporting compliance timelines are met until the current vacancy in the Sub Grants Unit can be filled to provide additional support to the existing staff.

Many transactions that were originally entered into the FSRS site did not transfer over and had to be re-entered into SAM.gov, making those entries appear late. In addition, we had trouble getting the SAM.gov site to accept our FFATA entries. DOE worked with SAM.gov customer support to eventually get the issues resolved, but this also resulted in late reporting. Subsequent to the systematic issues being resolved, all FFATA reports have been completed timely and will continue to be reported timely going forward.
