The Hospital will establish an annual audit readiness timeline working backward from the Uniform Guidance submission deadline (the earlier of thirty (30) calendar days after receipt of the auditors’ reports or nine months after the end of the audit period, June 30). The timeline will include target dates for the completion of year-end closing procedures, the delivery of auditor-requested schedules and supporting documentation, audit fieldwork, review of the draft report, and submission of the reporting package and Data Collection Form to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse in advance of the deadline. 2. Monthly closing discipline will be maintained throughout the fiscal year so that year-end balances, account reconciliations (including patient accounts receivable aging, the allowance for credit losses, and grants receivable), and audit support schedules are substantially complete at year end and available for timely delivery to the auditors. 3. The Chief Financial Officer will monitor the status of the audit timeline monthly beginning in October of each fiscal year, and any delay against the established milestones will require a documented recovery plan to return the process to schedule. 4. The Single Audit Reporting Package and Data Collection Form for the year ended September 30, 2025 will be submitted to the Federal Audit Clearinghouse immediately upon issuance of the final audit report. Anticipated Completion Date October 31, 2026
