For ALN 93.959, a Financial Assessment Form was not properly completed for 1 of the 60 clients tested. Additionally, 1 of the 60 clients tested did not have the Financial Assessment Form properly signed. Finally, 1 of the 60 clients tested had an incorrect discount fee applied. Our internal tracking of completion of the financial assessment form indicates that compliance with this requirement occurs about 98% of the time. Obtaining the client signature on the form has been challenging, particularly during recent years as use of telehealth services has expanded. As a corrective action, SMA will include completion of the assessment form compliance results to be reviewed at the monthly Process Improvement Committee. Program managers are required to present a corrective action plan when results are out of compliance with the standard. In addition, SMA will develop a procedure to allow staff to document receipt of verbal approval of the completed financial assessment form when the client is unable to be present at service location site.

For ALN 93.958, the full seven-part comprehensive assessment required for FACT clients was not completed fully within 60 days of client admission into the program for 1 of the 60 clients tested. Additionally, 3 of the 60 clients tested did not have the discount fee that was shown on their comprehensive assessment. Finally, 1 of the 60 clients tested had an incorrect discount fee applied. This appears to be the result of staff oversight. As a corrective action, all FACT team staff responsible for completion of the assessment will be retrained on a recurring basis. We feel as though the current process to review compliance is comprehensive. SMA’s internal clinical compliance department conducts routine audits. When conducting audits of the FACT program, the compliance staff members review charts for compliance with the comprehensive assessments. The results of those internal audits are reviewed at the Process Improvement Committee where program managers are required to present a corrective action plan if charts do not meet a pre-set compliance threshold. The clinical compliance results are also presented to the Quality Program Review subcommittee of the board. Furthermore, the FACT program directors are responsible for monitoring documentation timeframes to ensure that when new clients are admitted to the program, documentation is completed timely.

Adjusting Journal Entries and Required Disclosures to the Financial Statements Auditor’s Recommendation: Although auditors may continue to provide such assistance both now and in the future, under the pronouncement, the District should continue to review and accept both proposed adjusting journal entries and footnote disclosures, along with the draft financial statements. School District’s Response: The District has received, reviewed and accepted all journal entries, footnote disclosures and draft financial statements proposed for the current year audit and will continue to review similar information in future years. Further, the District believes it has a thorough understanding of these financial statements and the ability to make informed judgments based on these financial statements. The District Treasurer, Alexis Devine, will continue to review and work with the external auditors regarding all adjusting journal entries for the year ending June 30, 2024.

2023-002 Child Nutrition Cluster Recommendation: We recommend that fund balances should be monitored to ensure that balances remain in line with child nutrition compliance requirements. Action Taken: The district has in FY24 allocated much of the funds in excess from the child nutrition cluster to invest in equipment. We have to date, spent the funds down on Freezers, cafeteria tables, coolers, and other such equipment as is allowable for the funds. After speaking with food and nutrition services at DESE, we understand that this surplus comes from the state reimbursements being higher during COVID than what they are post covid. Meaning the rate we were getting reimbursed for free/reduced was higher than the cost, which built the surplus. We are confident that this excess is going to continue being dwindled down, now that our reimbursements are less than the cost of the 3rd party vendors charges to us. However, we are not allowed to use it on unpaid lunch balances, so we have to continue running that surplus for at least another year. This excess is going to start coming down on its own through necessary investments in infrastructure. Completion Date: June 30, 2024 Sincerely, Caleb Petet, Superintendent Marshall Public Schools

Corrective Action Planned: In September of 2022, the Chief Financial Officer left the health center, and a replacement was not hired until a month (February 20, 2023) before the end of the fiscal year on March 31, 2023. While the accounting staff have been with the health center for more than three years, they lacked guidance while the search for a replacement Chief Financial Officer was going on. The Chief Financial Officer who left the health center was the only one who was handling and administering the indirect cost rate to Federal grants but when he left the accounting staff had no clue that the new indirect cost rate needed to be administered. The new Chief Financial Officer has experience in the use and application of indirect cost rates and has cross trained the Controller in the use and application of indirect cost rates. This finding will never reoccur in future. Name(s) of Contact Person(s) Responsible for Corrective Action: Frackson Sakala Anticipated Completion Date: 12/31/2023

While the accounting staff have been with the health center for more than three years, they lacked guidance while the search for a replacement Chief Financial Officer was going on. The accounting staff were not trained in HRSA grant reporting and this led to missing the grant reporting due dates. The new Chief Financial Officer is experienced in HRSA grants reporting and has put in place a tracking system for all grants including HRSA Federal grants so that lapses in grants reporting do not happen again.

The finding was due in part to the lack of a process to correctly backdate administrative withdrawals when a student is awarded a grade of W after the stated date. This resulted in inconsistent dates reported to NSLDS and in the academic file. Management has met to address this issue. The Offices of Campus Technology, Financial Planning and Registrar have met to discuss processes in place and create new methods by which administrative withdrawals will be handled going forward. Additionally, management is working with Jenzabar to ensure the dates are consistent with the withdrawal option, specifically the awarding of W grades and the related date of last attendance. This process will assist the University in the following ways: students will be reported on the NSLDS report in the appropriate timeframe, a uniform withdrawal date will be recorded in the Offices of the Registrar and Financial Planning and students receive the appropriate grade as indicated by the official academic calendar. This action has been implemented for the final grading period ending on Monday, December 11, 2023. Management will continue to submit enrollment reports to the NSLDS on the schedule submitted annually, ensuring that any changes to student enrollment will be reported as required. The corrective action plan will be undertaken by the Office of the Registrar, under the supervision of the University Registrar and Director of Institutional Research and Effectiveness, Kendra Woodson (Kendra.woodson@converse.edu).

2023-002 – PROCUREMENT, SUSPENSION, AND DEBARMENT Auditee’s Response and Planned Corrective Action Based on the finding from the prior year’s report on internal control, the Authority implemented a Contract Register that is updated quarterly. The Contract Register lists all payments made year-to-date to all vendors and is reviewed periodically for frequently recurring transactions with vendors that could exceed the threshold limits. In this way, the level of procurement required is reviewed and changed if necessary. The level and type of procurement is determined by the amount of the purchase and the aggregate of purchases from that vendor to date. In the situation cited by the auditors, the aggregate purchases for that vendor exceeded the $10,000 threshold (but not more than $250,000). The Authority relied on a matrix of services and comparison of pricing between the former provider and the current provider, but bids were not documented. This has been corrected subsequent to year-end and the proper documentation was provided to the auditors. Planned Implementation Date of Corrective Action: December 21, 2023 Person Responsible for Corrective Action: Stuart MacDonald, CFO
