Subject: Hennepin County?s 2022 Corrective Action Plan Finding# 2022-004?Eligibility Program: Medical Assistance Program (ALN 93.778) Type of Finding: Material Weakness in Internal Control over Compliance; Other Matter Compliance Finding Condition: During our testing, we noted the following instances of noncompliance in the sample of 120 case files tested: ? One MAXIS case file had assets greater than their applicable household size asset limit. While beneficiaries may reduce their assets to continue to qualify, there was no documentation in the case notes showing the applicant reduced their assets subsequent to renewal in order to continue to qualify for benefits. ? One MAXIS case file had different bases of eligibility in MAXIS and MMIS where MAXIS indicated the beneficiary was ?EX? (age 65 or older) while MMIS indicated the beneficiary was ?DX? (disabled). ? One METS case file included documentation of verification of income that did not match the information entered into METS. ? One METS case file did not have a SSN entered at either the initial application date nor any of the subsequent renewal dates. No exemptions to the requirement to submit a SSN was noted in the case within METS. In addition, the County does not have effective internal controls over eligibility of the Medicaid program: ? The County does not have a formalized supervisory case file review process in place to ensure accuracy and completeness of inputs into the MAXIS and METS systems. ? We were not able to review and test the automated application controls and the related ITGCs within the MAXIS, METS and MMIS systems, all of which are state systems that are administered by the state and required to be used by the County, to determine whether the system controls are adequately designed and implemented and operating effectively for the determination of eligibility. Hennepin County?s Corrective Action Planned in Response to Finding: Program staff will design internal controls to ensure eligibility inputs are correctly entered, and information required by contract is retained. Hennepin County Employee Responsible for the CAP: Jackie Poidinger Planned Completion Date for CAP: December 31, 2023 Hennepin County will encourage the State to provide an independent audit of the design and implementation of MAXIS, METS, and MMIS system controls for the benefit of all counties.

Subject: Hennepin County?s 2022 Corrective Action Plan Finding# 2020-005?Eligibility Program: Foster Care Title IV-E (ALN 93.658) Type of Finding: Significant Deficiency in Internal Control over Compliance Condition: While we were able to test manual compensating controls over activities allowed or unallowed, allowable costs/cost principles and eligibility, we were not able to review and test the automated application controls and the related ITGCs within the MAXIS and SSIS systems that reside within the State of Minnesota, but are utilized by the County, to determine whether the system controls are adequately designed and implemented and operating effectively. Hennepin County?s Corrective Action Planned in Response to Finding: Hennepin County will encourage the State to provide an independent audit of the design and implementation of MAXIS and SSIS system controls for the benefit of all counties.

Subject: Hennepin County?s 2022 Corrective Action Plan Finding# 2022-002?Eligibility Program: WIC Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) (ALN 10.557) Type of Finding: Significant Deficiency in Internal Control over Compliance Condition: While testing the eligibility requirement, we noted procedures and controls were not operating as designed to ensure that only those eligible were approved for WIC. In our sample of 40 cases, two cases had no evidence that an independent review of the eligibility determination occurred. In addition, while we were able to test manual compensating controls over eligibility determination, we were not able to review and test the automated application controls and the related information technology general controls (ITGCs) within the HuBERT system, a state system that is administered by the state and required to be used by the County for eligibility determination, to determine whether controls are adequately designed and implemented and operating effectively. Hennepin County?s Corrective Action Planned in Response to Finding: Program staff will establish a process to strengthen eligibility determinations. Hennepin County Employee Responsible for the CAP: Jill Wilson Planned Completion Date for CAP: December 31, 2023 Hennepin County will encourage the State to provide an independent audit of the design and implementation of HuBERT system controls for the benefit of all counties.

Name of Contact Person: Niki Easley, Director HIV/AIDS Initiative Management Response:The subrecipient in question has been rendering services under the HIV Care Formula Grant for a span of over 20 years. Throughout this period, UWGN has experienced no performance or fiscal-related concerns with this subrecipient. Unfortunately, the subrecipient suffered catastrophic damage due to a natural disaster at their office space. Consequently, this has caused delays in obtaining the required audit due to the process of document recovery and relocation of office space. Given the circumstances faced by the subrecipient and their historical performance under the grant, UWGN made a decision to consider the Federal Form 990 as sufficient information temporarily. This measure was taken to prevent any additional negative impacts on the subrecipient?s operations until the completion of their audited financials. Corrective Action: The subrecipient is expected to receive their audited financials for 2021 and 2022 by Fall of 2023. UWGN will thoroughly review their audited report to identify any potential issues concerning the HIV Care Formula Grant, and if deemed necessary, appropriate actions will be taken. As of October 2022, UWGN has implemented a policy requiring an annual agency eligibility review process for all funded agencies, including subrecipients receiving fund through government grant from UWGN. This process ensures ongoing compliance and accountability for all parties involved. Proposed Completion Date: September 30, 2023

Finding 2022-003 Subrecipient Monitoring ? Significant Deficiency in Internal Control Condition and Effect: Management did not follow up with the subrecipients to obtain subrecipient single audit reports for potential compliance findings and questioned costs. As such the Corporation did not comply with the aforementioned regulatory requirement. This is a recurring finding from the prior year. View of Responsible Officials and Planned Corrective Action: The Corporation will review the Uniform Guidance audit compilation process to identify where automation can be better utilized to increase timing of information gathering. In addition, cross training will be instituted to enable knowledge sharing amongst various teams to mitigate delays due to staff turnover. Also, management will integrate the Corporation?s program managers, who work regularly with subrecipients, to aid in obtaining the single audit reports.

Finding No. 2022-001: Special Tests and Provisions Federal Agency: Department of Housing and Urban Development Condition Per 2 CFR sections 578.51(g), where grants are used to pay rent for individual housing units, the recipient or subrecipient must determine whether the rent charges are reasonable in relation to rents being charged for comparable assisted units, taking into account the location, size, type, quality, amenities, facilities, and management and maintenance of each unit.

However, the Organization does perform an independent assessment of rents compared to fair market value and reviews the rent calculation worksheet during each drawdown. Current Status of Corrective Action Plan Concur. The Organization will continue to ensure that its subrecipients are in compliance with rent reasonableness guidelines per 24 CFR sections 578.51(g).
