AUDIT FINDING REFERENCE: 2022-002FINDING SUMMARY:The District?s expenditures charged to grant award number 21-340-07000 occurred prior to the date of the sub-grantaward provided by the State of Nevada Department of Education.RESPONSIBLE PERSON:Dr. David Jensen, SuperintendentPLANNED CORRECTIVE ACTION:This finding was in relation to a pass-through grant of Supplemental Corona Virus Relief Funding provided to theDistrict in lieu of an error found in the PCFP funding formula for the bi-ennium. While the District?s expenditures forthe program are consistent with the March 1, 2020 through December 31, 2021 Period of Performance for thisfederal funding, the Period of Performance on the sub-grant Award was listed as December 10 through December 31,2021. Prior to acceptance, the District informed the pass-through entity that the funds would be used to reimbursecosts incurred during July through October, 2021, and the pass-through entity personnel verbally assured Districtmanagement that this would be acceptable. However, the pass-through entity did not amend the sub-grant awardperiod of performance, resulting in non-compliance with the sub-grant award.Humboldt County School District agrees with the audit finding that this was an isolated instance resulting from aunique situation that arose and was out of the District?s control, and is not the result of a systematic problem.However, the District will follow the recommendation and make every effort to obtain written documentation of anypromised revisions to sub-grant awards prior to expending funds from the pass-through entity in the future.ANTICIPATED COMPLETION DATE:January 31, 2023

Subsequent to the discovery of the error during the audit, in April 2023, the Organization was able to obtain an application from the patient to support a sliding fee to a charge of $70.Questioned costsNoneRepeat findingNoRecommendationWe recommend that management continue to work and educate front desk and intake staff on the importance of the required patient application documentation so that the required support is obtained before applying a sliding fee discount to a patient account. In addition, we suggest that management establish a policy to perform regular monitoring of a sample of patient file sliding fee applications, to ensure the sliding fee is applied correctly.Corrective ActionWe agreed with the above comment and will implement a system of monitoring sliding fee applications and continue to educate the front desk and intake staff to ensure all documentation is obtained.

Finding 2022-005 – Significant Deficiency, Procurement and Suspension, and Debarment - Internal Control over Verification Against the System for Award Management (“SAM”) Condition: During our audit, we noted that the City did not have documentation to support that it verified vendors selected for testing against the SAM to ensure that they were not suspended or debarred from federally funded purchases. Cause: While the City has a formal policy requiring the purchasing department to perform verification of suspension or debarment over vendors that the City enters into contracts with for federally funded projects, it does not maintain formal documentation that this procedure occurred. Response: We agree with the finding. We are adding this step to our checklist and have assigned the task to our Grants Compliance Coordinator.

Finding 2022-004: Significant Deficiency and Noncompliance Finding, Reporting- Special Reporting Assistance Listing Program Title and Number: Coronavirus State and Local Fiscal Recovery Funds Federal Agency: Department of Treasury Pass-through Entity: N/A Award year: 2022 Criteria or specific requirement: Cities were required to submit a one-time interim report with expenditures by Expenditure Category covering the period from March 3 to July 31, 2021, by August 31, 2021. The initial quarterly Project and Expenditure Report covered three calendar quarters from March 3, 2021 to December 31, 2021, and was required to be submitted to Treasury by January 31, 2022. The subsequent quarterly reports will cover one calendar quarter and must be submitted to Treasury by the last day of the month following the end of the period covered. Condition: The interim report and 2 Project and Expenditure Reports were not submitted as required. Cause: Grant management and reporting is not fully centralized within the City and there was turnover in the grant administrator position. The City did not have sufficient internal controls in place to ensure the reports were filed. Effect: The progress reports should be submitted by the deadline. This results in non-compliance with the Reporting requirements of the program. This can result in the Federal government cancelling funding of the program or denying eligible expenditures. Prevalence: There was 1 interim report and 3 project and expenditure reports required to be submitted during the audit period. Only one project and expenditure reports was submitted. Questioned Cost: None Repeating Finding: No. Recommendation We recommend that the City implement controls to ensure all compliance requirements are complied with as well as contact the grantor about whether or not the delinquent reports should still be filed. Views of Responsible Officials: Management agrees with the finding.
