As audited by: Zelenkofske Axelrod LLC 2370 York Road, Suite A-5 Jamison, PA 18929 Audit Period: July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2022 The Significant Deficiency reported in the June 30, 2022 Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs is discussed below.

Finding No. 2022-001 CFDA: 14.871 - Housing Choice Voucher Program and CFDA 14.879 Mainstream Vouchers. Finding: A federal award finding was issued to the Housing Choice Voucher program regarding HQS inspections that occurred, were noted as failed, but reinspection's were not performed timely. Specifically, 13 of 25 units noted as failed, did not have reinspection's as required within 30 days. Action Taken: We concur with the finding. In response to the global pandemic, HUD waived the completion of HQS inspections from April 2020- December 2022. Following the lifting of the Federal State of Emergency, HUD discontinued the waiver and required public housing authorities (PHA) not only resume regular HQS inspections but also complete every inspection that was not completed during the waiver period. This created a wave of inspections that historic inspection staffing levels could not keep up with. Furthermore, completing inspections continued to be a challenge with households missing inspections or needing to reschedule due to COVID. The Bellingham Housing Authority recognized this challenge and created an inspections department with two inspectors and a full-time admin support person to complete the backlog of inspections timely and to provide greater inspection support in the future. The authority has also reviewed scheduling and tracking practices, including automatically scheduling a reinspection following a fail, to ensure timely follow-up.

We are in receipt of the Finding Required to be Reported by Uniform Guidance, regarding other instance of noncompliance with respect to Reporting. Management agrees with the finding. Policies and procedures over federal grant reporting will be modified to ensure reports are prepared using complete and accurate information. We will increase compensating controls by introducing additional oversight and review for future COVID-19 Provider Relief Fund reporting. Larry Price, CEO, will be responsible to ensure this is accomplished. The District had enough expenditures for Period 2 and 3 funding received so that no lost revenues were utilized as a basis for the funds received. The corrective action plan will be implemented by September 30, 2023.

Identifying Number: 2022-001 Audit Finding: Eligibility Requirements for Refugee and Entrant Assistance, Federal Assistance Listing Number 93.566 for 2022 issued by the US Department of Health and Human Services. (Repeat) Corrective Action Planned: Management of the Organization is requiring regular ongoing training for all federal programs. All files will be reviewed on a regular basis by a supervisor to ensure eligibility checklists have been used and completed and that all required documentation is contained in the files. The checklists themselves are being reviewed on a regular basis to ensure they reflect current federal guidelines. The biggest reason leading to this finding is that the checklists had not been signed off documenting review procedures were in place. We are now requiring staff to sign off on all checklists and are working to improve the checklists documentation to ensure that all internal controls are documented properly. We note that due to the large increase in the number of people being served, the organization has recently hired additional staff to maintain the content of the files to achieve compliance. Compliance managers will be assigned whose sole duty is to verify the required documentation exists in the files. The compliance managers will report to a supervisor who is independent of the program leadership. The name of the contact person responsible for the corrective action: Jeff Gulde, Executive Director The anticipated completion date: To be completed by March 31, 2023.

Finding 2022-001 ? Reporting Internal control deficiency and noncompliance over the calculation of lost revenues attributable to Coronavirus Identification of the federal program: Assistance Listing Number 93.498 Program Name: COVID-19 ? Provider Relief Fund Grantor: Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Federal award identification number: Not Applicable Views of responsible officials and planned corrective actions: Management agrees with the finding. Management will develop internal controls to review and approve supporting documentation and calculations of lost revenues attributable to Coronavirus prior to future Portal submissions, where applicable. The error noted understated lost revenues in the Portal submissions by approximately $38 million and, as a result, will not result in a refund of funds to HRSA. In future reporting periods, management will add an additional layer of review focused on the detailed calculations prior to Portal submissions, where applicable. All stages of review will be formally documented via sign-offs by the appropriate members of management before the lost revenues are entered into future reporting Portal submissions. Management has contacted HRSA directly to inform them of the reporting errors and awaits next steps to address remediation as no Period 5 Portal submission is required. Management intends to revise their Period 3 and 4 lost revenue amounts to be in line with revised calculations. Contact person: John Pohlman Expected Completion Date: September 30, 2023

IU Health designed and implemented internal controls over the allowability of expenses and amounts submitted in the HRSA and ARP reports. These internal controls were precise enough to ensure that the submissions were compliant with HRSA reporting guidance. In fact, IU Health reached out directly to HRSA to confirm the appropriateness of its election. IU Health remained consistent in utilizing the annual budget as a basis for lost revenue past 2020. As inferred from the annual budget approval date threshold of March 27, 2020, our 2021 and 2022 budgets were prepared using prepandemic years as a baseline expectation. IU Health also conversed directly with HRSA wherein a representative confirmed our use of option 2 as appropriate for Period 3 and beyond, because, according to the representative, the intention of the written regulation did not literally mean budget approval for years past 2020 to have occurred prior to March 27, 2020. As our annual budgets were already naturally materially in line with our long-range plan that was approved in December of 2019, it seemed we were adhering to the spirit of the guidelines set forth. For future periods, IU Health will elect option 3 for lost revenue. Contact Person(s) Responsible for Corrective Action: David Burton Anticipated Completion Date: Effective for Period 5 deadline of September 30, 2023
