2022-002 Reporting Deadlines Provider Relief Fund and American Rescue Plan (ARP) Rural Distribution Assistance Listing #93.498) Recommendation: We recommend that Comprehend management review all grant funding for reporting deadlines and coordinate this responsibility with the respective program directors. Action Taken: Management concurs with this finding and agrees with the finding and has put in place processes to ensure that all required data reporting related to grants is done within the state required deadlines. Due to significant turnover in the finance and accounting department during the 2021 fiscal year when this grant was received, the CFO and/or CEO did not receive any communication from HRSA regarding the reporting. Management has and continues following the repayment status of HRSA Funding. The process was put into place December 2022.

Finding 2022-002: Significant Deficiency ? Reporting - Higher Education Emergency Relief Fund Condition/Context: The quarterly and annual reporting contained some information that did not agree to support provided, and some of the quarterly reports were not posted to the University?s website within the required time frame. ? For both the institutional and student portions of the grant, there was no quarterly report for the period ending June 30, 2021. Reporting was posted for the period ending May 30, 2021 which reported the final activities for the second round of HEERF awards. There were drawdowns that occurred during the month of June 2021 for both portions of the third round of HEERF funding that were incorrectly included in the September 30, 2021 quarterly reports. ? The University?s institutional portion quarterly report for September 30, 2021 reported the total for only lost revenue from auxiliary sources and this did not agree to support provided. ? The 2021 annual report had some information that did not agree to the underlying support provided by the University. Specifically, the total for lost revenue and the total for other uses, and the required two new uses (direct outreach and monitoring and suppressing) were not reported although the support file provided did include costs for those items. Corrective Action Plan: Management recognizes the significant deficiency, yet stands firm that that the guidance (FAQs, webinars, web posting, templates) for the HEERF reporting by the US Department of Education was confusing, contradictory, and ever-evolving. Management did its best to follow the reporting requirements, and as a result, will do the following to address this matter going forward. -Verify in writing from the US Department of Education that the actions taken from the university meet the reporting requirements -Require that all three leaders that interface with HEERF (Vice President for Planning and Finance, Controller, Director of Financial Aid and Student Accounts) review the reporting requirements and supporting documentation -Update the 2021 Annual report by adding $750 for ?Implementing evidence-based practices to monitor and suppress coronavirus in accordance with public health guidelines? and $1,400 for ?conducting direct outreach to financial aid applicants about the opportunity to receive financial aid adjustment due to the recent unemployment of a family member or independent students, or other circumstances? out of the $4M received of institutional funds.

Finding: 2022-001 Considered a significant deficiency in internal control/immaterial non-compliance. Program: ALN 93.959 Block Grants for Prevention and Treatment of Substance Abuse (Treatment) Criteria: As detailed by 2 CFR 200.402, the total cost of a Federal award is the sum of the allowable direct and allocable indirect costs less any applicable credits. Condition: During testing of amounts charged to the grants it was noted that provider stabilization payments were charged to the Treatment grant but were not authorized by the grants. Cause/Effect: This condition appears to be the result of a misunderstanding of costs allowed under this grant. These costs were not in compliance with 2 CFR 200.402. Questioned Cost: $199,598 Recommendation: We recommend that the Entity review all grant agreements to gain a thorough understanding of allowable costs and then establish/modify internal controls to assure that only allowable costs are charged to the grant View of Responsible Official: Management is in agreement with this recommendation. Corrective Action Plan: SWMBH's provider stability committee will review SWMBH's COVlD-19 Provider Stability plan. Along with the review of the plan, SWMBH will fully understand and execute request in accordance with the SWMBH COVlD-19 Provider Stability plan. Payments of an approved provider stability request will only be funded by Medicaid and Healthy Michigan. Responsible Party: Garyl L.

WIOA Adult Program ? submitted 59 days after the deadline; ? WIOA Dislocated Worker Program ? submitted 47 days after the deadline; and ? Youth@Work ? WIOA OSY ? submitted 45 days after the deadline. Cause and Effect The Organization had a major employee turnover during the year and had to resort to hiring a third-party accountant to assist in completing the audit requirements. As a result, the closeout reports were submitted late to the County. Questioned Costs None Recommendation We recommend that the Organization implement formal procedures to ensure that closeout reports are prepared timely and submitted within the deadline. Views of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Actions LA County noted that closeout reports were submitted late by CCD.

The Department of Human Services (DHS) concurs with the findings. In response to a similar finding for the fiscal year 2021 ERA single audit where original submission data was overridden by formatting updates, DHS began saving screen shots of reported data within Treasury?s reporting portal. This practice began in June 2022 and will continue for the duration of the ERA program, through ERA2 closeout reporting.

The Department of Human Services (DHS) agrees with the findings. DHS will reach out to the four (4) STAY DC payees to formally request the return of improper payments to the District of Columbia. This will be tracked to ensure the return is recorded against ERA within the District?s financial system. To address any documentation gaps, DHS introduced new Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for Family Rehousing and Stabilization Program (FRSP) in FY23. The new SOP implements stricter internal control procedures, regular audits, and streamlining the eligibility determination process. The District will reclass all identified errored payments off of the ERA fund to Local funding by the closeout of FY23, Sept. 30, 2023. DHS also completed a reconciliation of data reported to U.S. Treasury for ERA1 closeout reporting and ERA2 2023 Q2 reporting to ensure that no errored payments were included.
