Contact Person: William Bane Management’s Response: Management acknowledges that there were not sufficient controls in place to ensure written consent from HUD prior to incurring new debt or lease arrangements. Four of the five leases in question were all entered into and approved by individuals no longer with the organization and without prior knowledge of hospital finance personnel. Current Management had previously established controls to ensure written consent is obtained prior to incurring any new debt or lease arrangements, but these arrangements were not caught before being signed. The HUD loan was retired and refinanced with another financial institution during 2024 so this will not be an issue going forward. Completion Date: September 23, 2025

The initial eligibility determinations are currently handled by the HCV department and are centralized. It has been determined that considerable investment in staff training has been made during the past twelve months. As a result, there has been staff turnover, some at the decision of TGHA, and some at the decision of staff. Initial eligibility is currently being restructured with an emphasis on new admissions. All procedures and processes are being evaluated for accuracy, with emphasis on the noted area of noncompliance and includes a complete review and update to the Administrative Plan. There will be increased staff training and file review. In July 2024, TGHA transitioned project-based files from a property management team to the Housing Choice Voucher Department. The files had not been electronically stored. Evidence pointed to deficiencies in file maintenance. TGHA has hired temporary staff for an extended period to focus on file organization and to correct documentation deficiencies. All HCV staff have completed Rent Calculation courses provided by NAHRO or Nan McKay during the fiscal year. There have been two managers hired for the department, one exclusively for project-based vouchers. Both attended NAHRO supervisory training in September. There will be an intensive focus on program integrity throughout the programs, including staff capability, training and monitoring. TGHA has contracted with a professional recruiter to assist in hiring a Director of the HCV and MTW programs. Recertification transactions will be monitored on a monthly basis. This will include validation of calculations and verification of correct documentation. TGHA files were fully in order by July 2025.

Corrective Action Plan Xavier complies with the loan disbursement notification rules. During the audit we learned that, while our system was sending the emails to each student with a loan disbursement, our process for copying each individual email to xufinaid was not functioning. Further, the notification report was being overwritten daily, causing us to lose the audit trail for these notifications. We have implemented two steps to be able to document each individual email. 1. The xufinaid@xavier.edu email address is copied on every disbursement notification and each notification email is delivered into the xufinaid inbox in Outlook. Every Wednesday those emails are moved by financial aid personnel into a folder in Outlook where they remain stored. This weekly review allows personnel to know in a timely manner if there are issues with the email delivery process. 2. A log file which saves a list of the disbursement notification emails is saved on a daily basis. It includes the content of each email.

Effect: The Town was not in compliance with the time and effort certification requirements. Cause: The District has made great efforts to ensure time and effort certification compliance.

Federal program: FAL 21.027, Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds Significant deficiency Criteria: Management is responsible for designing, implementing, and maintaining effective internal controls to ensure accurate financial reporting and safeguard assets.

REFERENCE No. 2024-001 Significant Deficiency in Internal Control Over Compliance, Other Matters - Eligibility Program Medicaid Cluster (Assistance Listing Number 93.778) Identification Number(s) DOH01-C37308GG-3450000 Finding The County did not maintain adequate documentation of program participant eligibility, nor did it ensure that non-long-term care program participants were properly classified. Sixty participants were selected for testing and the following exceptions were noted: • For five of sixty participants selected for testing, the County was unable to provide documentation that a program supervisor had approved the application. • For one of sixty participants selected for testing, the County was unable to provide a signed participant application. • For one of sixty participants selected for testing, upon reapplication and further documentation, a long-term care case was determined to be non-long-term care, but the County did not make this change and the participant was misclassified. Questioned Costs Undetermined. Recommendation The County should enhance its procedures and internal controls to ensure it maintains documentation of participant eligibility. It should also enhance procedures and internal controls to ensure participants are correctly classified as long-term care versus non-long-term care. Corrective Action Plan The Medicaid Division will continue to emphasize the need for signatures at both levels of eligibility Examiner level and Quality Control Examiner II or higher level. This will be stressed at all appropriate training for not only new staff but current staff as well. As far as the “misclassified” the Consumer left nursing home during a period when documentation requirements were waived, due to the Public Health Emergency (COVID-19); The coverage was correct, but coding indicated the need for Long Term Care. This code does not allow or authorize any services on its own, and as such, no inappropriate services were authorized. Even though this has little impact the Division will continue to stress to staff and supervisors the need to properly code cases. NYS DOH is in the process of transitioning away from LDSS 3209 forms and automating the process; we will continue to work with our state partners to assist in this transition when it becomes available to us. This transition should mitigate these type of situations.

2024-002 PAYROLL POPULATION The Organization uses general ledger detail to create draws to submit reimbursement claims. Some reimbursements are for payroll expenses that are paid through a separate system. The Organization could not reconcile the general ledger to the payroll software detail used to submit reimbursements. Recommendation: The Organization should perform and maintain monthly reconciliations of the payroll software, general ledger, and draw detail that all agree. Action Taken: The Organization was billing the grantor for payroll fees, the additional fees for each employee or contract that participated in the grant. Originally, the funds were coded to payroll (compensation) expenses, which generated a discrepancy between the Payroll Register and the General Ledger. The unemployment expense was also coded to benefits, which created a variance between the payroll register (generated from payroll software) and the general ledger. Going forward, the trail balance and general ledger will be reconciled to the draw request. Additionally, the team has been trained in how to properly code these expenses. Contact Person: Shire Kuch Effective Date: 25 September 2025.
