Special Test and Provisions The Authority was unable to provide evidence that the UPCS or the environmental inspection populations were complete and accurate. Sixty failed UPCS inspections and forty failed environmental inspections were selected for compliance testing out of the total 9,975 failed UPCS inspections and 216 failed environmental inspections, reported by the Authority. ? Internal controls were not in place to ensure that failed UPCS and environmental inspections were remediated. ?

It will track mitigations and completion of those work orders, in lieu of re-inspections. Additionally, Portfolio Management team will conduct a regular audit of work orders generated from the annual unit inspections (2%). For environmental findings, the Authority will broaden the scope of the internal inspections to include generating work orders for all findings, and securing all necessary evidence that work was remediated, and all other necessary actions have occurred.

Recommendation: We recommend that DCF have internal controls in place to mitigate this from happening in the future. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: The first case is from Feb. 2008 and the other one is from May 2014. While there were several documents provided from those two cases, missing from that, was nonrecurring expense documentation. The staff persons identified with both cases were from the SN County (NE Region). Neither staff member identified is still currently employed with DCF. KDCF has a policy that all casefiles contain documentation to support any state expenditure, as well as documentation to support all payments, (reference Policy #0430 Contents of Foster Care, Adoption and Independent Living Services Case Records). Internally, we have quarterly meetings with adoption staff and specialists, as well as monthly meetings with Regional Foster Care Administrators. We will discuss the audit findings and the importance of properly maintaining all the adoption and subsidy related paperwork. It is vital all of documents can be accounted for in the adoption files.
