Finding 2022-003 United States Department of Health and Human Services Pass-through from North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services Program Name: Block Grants for Prevention and Treatment of Substance Abuse Federal Assistance Listing Number - 93.959 Significant Deficiency in Internal Control over Compliance and Nonmaterial Noncompliance - Allowable Activities/Costs Responsible Individuals: Thom Elmore, Executive Director Finding Summary: Our audit procedures noted multiple instances in which costs were included in the grant reimbursement reports that were unallowed per the terms of the grant agreement and relevant federal and state compliance guidance. These findings included the inclusion of sales tax expenses that could be legally recouped by means of refunds, inadequate documentation supporting the current pay rate for an employee whose wages were included in the award reimbursement requests, and reported indirect costs that exceeded the maximum allowable indirect cost rate per the terms of the award. The total questioned costs related to these findings were not material to program compliance. Corrective Action Plan: The Organization has developed appropriate controls over the review and approval of allowable costs; however, the Organization will review and strengthen these control activities by providing a more thorough examination of expenditure supporting documentation by an individual that is not responsible for preparing the federal award reimbursement requests. Additionally, we will review and strengthen our internal control activities over personnel pay rate changes by requiring independent verification that all pay rate changes implemented are supported by current documentation in the respective employees' personnel file. Anticipated Completion Date: Ongoing.

Audit Finding: The Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (SEFA) is prepared using source information other than the financial reports generated by the accounting system. As a result, the Organization's internally prepared SEFA did not agree to the Organization's financial records. The SEFA was prepared and reconciled to the amount of cash drawdowns for the year rather than total expenditures incurred for the year. This could result in a material misstatement in the SEFA. Recommendation: The SEFA should be prepared and reconciled to the general ledger by an employee knowledgeable of the grant activity for the year. Someone other than the preparer should review the SEFA for accuracy and completeness to identify any errors and maintain proper internal controls over the preparation of the SEFA. Corrective Action Taken: Management has hired an individual who specializes in federal programs who will be responsible for reviewing the SEFA in the future. The CFO will also have the Senior Accountant review the SEFA for correctness prior to submission! Expected Completion Date: June 30, 2023

Finding 2022-002 The Center?s use of spreadsheets for labor allocations did not provide a documented system of internal control that could be used to test changes to allocation made during the year. Corrective Actions Taken or Planned: Management concurs with this finding. On March 1, 2023, Carole Robertson Center for Learning transitioned tracking of labor costs to our human resource information system, Paycor. This has been a work-in-progress which began in the fall of 2021. The result has been accomplished with diligence, attention to detail, efficiency and accuracy during a period a significant growth. Each pay period, Paycor produces a Job Costing Report that supports the reimbursement process for labor costs. Further, the content of the Job Costing Report seamlessly exports these costs to the general ledger for each pay period. A formal approval process will be established to connect the flow of documentation from budgeting, to actual costs incurred, to the reimbursement from funders so that verification of each element (grant budget development, payroll, cost allocations, general ledger entries, and reimbursement requests) will match/reconcile without requiring recalculation. The contact person is Peg Heslinga, Chief Financial Officer. SAGE Intacct accounting software will be implemented with a planned go-live date of July 1, 2023. The contact person is Peg Heslinga, Chief Financial Officer.

Finding 2022-001: Failure to submit the required Federal Funding Accountability and Transparency Act (FFATA) report by the end of the month following an award to a subrecipient results in noncompliance with 2CFR Part 170. Failure to submit annual SF-429 report results in noncompliance with requirements. Corrective Actions Taken or Planned: Management concurs with this finding. This is a new requirement for Carole Robertson Center for Learning related to its Head Start/Early Head Start grant. As a recent Office of Head Start grantee, we were unaware of this reporting requirement. We have amended our internal controls to add the FFATA report and the SF-429 report on December 31 each year in our newly created Finance Department Compliance Calendar. Further, we have pursued additional trainings and resources for new Head Start grantees to ensure compliance with reporting requirements. In addition, a system of oversight and monitoring of the Compliance Calendar will be established to provide an additional layer of review for these reports. Implementation is planned for completion by April 30th, 2023. The contact person is Peg Heslinga, Chief Financial Officer.

Finding 2022-002: Activities Allowed or Unallowed and Allowable Costs/Cost Principles Federal Agency Name: Department of Health and Human Services Program Name: COVID-19 Testing and Mitigation for Rural Health Clinics Federal Financial Assistance Listing/CFDA Number: 93.697 Finding Summary: The Medical Center?s listing of expenses claimed under the Testing and Mitigation for Rural Health Clinics program as an allowable cost had more expenses than funds received.
