Finding 2021-002 Program Name/CFDA Title: Provider Relief Fund Federal Assistance Listing Number: 93.498 Federal Agency: U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Type of Finding: Noncompliance, Significant Deficiency Questioned Cost: None Compliance Requirement: Reporting Condition: The federal reporting deadline for the Single Audit reporting package was September 30, 2022; however, the District did not submit its Single Audit Reporting Package by that date. Criteria: The District is required to file the Data Collection Form (SFSAC) within 30 calendar days after receipt of the auditor’s report, or nine months after year end, whichever is first as referenced in 2 CFR 200.512. Cause: As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, financial constraints and corresponding staffing challenges, the accounting and finance team at the District was unable to complete the required single audit reporting package on a timely basis. At the same time, the accounting and finance team were faced with other administrative and operational matters requiring immediate attention to help ensure the District remained operational. The financial and staffing constraints resulted in the late submissions of the Single Audit reporting package. Effect: The District was not in compliance with federal reporting requirements and regulations. Recommendation: We recommend audit preparations are completed on a timely basis to ensure that the reporting deadline is met. View of Responsible Management agrees with the finding above. Officials:
