Planned Corrective Action: The Organization acknowledges the finding and is continuously working closely with program staff to seek other non-federal revenue to meet the match requirement. The Organization has been unable to meet the match requirement since the pandemic because the Organization’s match was previously dependent on volunteer hours and volunteers were not in the sites when they were not open. The following steps have been taken to remedy the finding. The Organization's resource development team is constantly researching non-federal funding to supplement the senior center funding that is eligible for match. The Organization has also increased fundraising activities for gaining private donations, which could be applied to senior center activities and therefore create match. Thus far for fiscal year 2023-2024 the Organization has obtained a grant that will be eligible for a match totaling $73,992. In addition, the Organization is researching the new reporting requirements for in-kind donations, as the senior centers occasionally receive donations such as food from private vendors that could be eligible for match. As of October 31, 2023, the Organization has met 25% of its match requirement for the current fiscal year.

Planned Corrective Action: The Organization acknowledges the finding and accepts the recommendation. The Organization further recognizes the importance of gathering correct program data information and that the data is entered correctly. Once the Organization became aware of the variances, Department Leadership and the Organization’s Compliance Director began working on training for all staff and volunteers to support and improve accuracy of data collection and data entry. A training was facilitated on August 31, 2023. Staff plan to continue training quarterly with department staff and volunteers to support program data compliance. The Organization’s Senior Services Department has shifted over to a single point of entry for all meal deliveries, utilizing the Optimo Route software, which is improving efficiency. Senior Services will continue to explore the use of technology in 2024-2025 that will allow the Organization to move manual entry to a digital system. The Organization's Senior Services Department management will validate all monthly reports prior to submission. The Organization’s Compliance Director will review all reports quarterly for accuracy. Management is committed to ensure program data reflects services provided and accurate activity reporting.

Management’s response - In response to the finding indicated in the governance letter, management recognizes that the physical work performed for this expense occurred in FY23, but this is also an ongoing project and the period of performance for the ARP ESSER grant ends on 9/30/2024 not 6/30/23.

Management’s response - In response to the finding indicated in the governance letter, management recognizes that the physical work performed for this expense occurred in FY23, but this is also an ongoing project and the period of performance for the ARP ESSER grant ends on 9/30/2024 not 6/30/23. Therefore, Management believes their interpretation is also correct. All federal and state grants with a period of performance ending 6/30/23 were accrued back to FY23 ensuring payments and receipts activities were in the correct time frame. Final reimbursement was requested, and the grants were closed out. The implementation of our new financial system also added an extra layer of complexity to our end of year accounting. Work in 2 different systems that do not work cohesively with each other was very challenging. We respect and appreciate the work of our auditors and understand that at times we will disagree and interpret things differently, which is what happened in regard to the expense for the HVAC project surrounding the "period of performance" language.

Moving forward, we have found qualified accounting personnel that will assist the Organization in making sure the audited financial statements are submitted to HUD by the deadline.

Finding 2023-004 Federal Agency Name: Department of Health and Human Services Program Name: COVID-19 Provider Relief Fund and American Rescue Plan Rural Distribution Federal Assistance Listing #93.498 Finding Summary: The operations of HealthCenter Northwest, LLC (HC) were consolidated into Kalispell Regional Medical Center d/b/a Logan Health Medical Center (LHMC) as of December 31, 2020. When LHMC calculated their lost revenues, they included HC’s revenue for both 2020 and 2021 instead of only the 2021 information. This resulted in LHMC reporting higher lost revenues than the detailed reports supported in Period 3. This was corrected in Period 4 reporting. Responsible Individuals: Craig Lambrecht, CEO and Cole Turner, CFO Corrective Action Plan: The lost revenue calculation will be re-evaluated and the amount of lost revenue reported on the HHS reporting portal has been updated in Period 4.

Finding 2023-003 Federal Agency Name: Department of Health and Human Services Program Name: COVID-19 Provider Relief Fund and American Rescue Plan Rural Distribution Federal Assistance Listing #93.498 Finding Summary: In some of the quarters for certain entities, it was noted that bad debt expenses were higher than revenues, creating a negative revenue for the quarter. As the HHS reporting portal would not allow negative amounts to be entered, a zero was entered into the HHS reporting portal. These negative amounts should have been offset to other quarters or other revenue line items, but were not, which resulted in higher revenue amounts being reported than the detailed reports supported for two locations for Period 3. Responsible Individuals: Craig Lambrecht, CEO and Cole Turner, CFO Corrective Action Plan: The lost revenue calculation for these two locations will be re-evaluated and the amount of lost revenue reported on the HHS reporting portal will be updated in future periods. Anticipated Completion Date: Ongoing

OTDA’s review and controls of FFATA information data entered identified all errors that were material in nature, but overlooked amounts referenced within the finding. OTDA will continue to utilize the automated process for FFATA submittals and review future data entered information.
