In FY 2020 through FY 2022, the hospital was going through a transition due to financial constraints, hence several internal operations were affected. Even though we have internal policy to schedule Annual Financial audits 90 days after close of every Fiscal year, we fell behind and for a period of two years were unable to schedule annual financial audits timely. At the time when the FY 2022 single Audit was due, we had not even completed our FY2020 Audit hence the delay. Currently, the hospital is working toward getting caught up with the annual financial audits to get back on track with our policy. We just completed FY 2023 and are working on FY 2024. We hope to be done with FY 2025 and FY 2026 in the Fall of calendar year 2026.

The audit report on the financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2022 was issued on April 15, 2026, The Data Collection form and reporting package will be submitted within 5 business days thereafter.
