Significant Deficiency 2023-001. Allowable Costs/Cost Principles United States Federal Communications Commission: COVID-19: Emergency Connectivity Fund Program ALN: 32.009 Condition: Subpart E, 2 CFR §200.404 of the Uniform guidance requires that any monies charged to the Emergency Connectivity Fund Program be reasonable costs allowable under the approved grant application, including the grant requirement that reimbursed costs for devices or equipment are only eligible for a one-per user limitation. During the current year, we noted that the District purchased and was reimbursed for additional devices or equipment beyond the unmet need and the one per-user limitation. Planned Corrective Action: The District agrees with the recommendation, and the Assistant Superintendent for Finance and Management Services will contact the federal agency to determine the appropriate action for the reimbursement of the excess funds received.

Identifying Number: 2023-003 Finding: Management did not have effective internal controls in place to ensure the reporting portal submission was completed accurately. In the report submitted to Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) for period 4, McDonough County Hospital District d/b/a McDonough District Hospital (the Hospital) mistakenly reported $1,600,451 as American Rescue Plan (ARP) Rural expenses and $187,140 as other PRF expenses. The Hospital entered the total Federal award cash receipts for period 4 as the reportable PRF and ARP Rural expenses for payments received during period 4. The PRF and ARP Rural expenses should have been zero in the portal as the Hospital did not track PRF and ARP Rural expenses. The Hospital properly included lost revenue information in the report within the lost revenue section of the report; however, due to the PRF and ARP Rural expenses being incorrectly reported, none of the PRF and ARP Rural payments reported were used for lost revenues in the report submitted for period 4. As a result, the total unused lost revenues line reported $5,775,235 but should have been $3,987,644. Additionally, the Hospital incorrectly indicated it reported lost revenue based on the 2020 Budgeted Revenue reporting method. The lost revenue information included in the report was calculated using the Alternate Reasonable Method. Corrective Actions Taken or Planned: Management agrees with Finding 2023-003 and the importance of an accurate submission to the Provider Relief Fund Reporting Portal. We will evaluate the Provider Relief Fund Reporting preparation process to ensure we have controls in place over the accuracy and completeness of the reported revenue. Person Responsible: William R. Murdock, Vice President and Chief Financial Officer Anticipated Completion Date: March 31, 2024

FINDING 2023-001: INCORRECT PELL GRANTS A.

IN MOST CASES THE PAYMENT AND THE ENROLLMENT STATUS MATCH BUT FOR STUDENT A1 THAT IS NOT THE CASE. GOING FORWARD, AT THE TIME THE ROSTER IS PRODUCED THE FA OFFICE WILL VERIFY EACH PAYMENT BEFORE THE ROSTER GOES TO THE BUSINESS OFFICE. PIMS WILL ALSO RETURN THE $811 OF 21/22 PELL THAT STUDENT A1 WAS INELLIGIBLE FOR. PELL ADJUSTMENTS DURING THE R2T4 PROCESS WILL BE LOOKED AT BY BOTH THE FA PROCESSOR AND SUPERVISOR.

PIMS WILL RE-REQUEST ON BEHALF OF STUDENT B1 $431 IN PELL GRANT FUNDS.
