Finding Text
#2022-001 Timeliness of Reporting; AL#: 93.224 and 93.527; Program: Health Center Cluster Condition: As a result of our audit procedures, we noted that both of the annual Federal Financial Reports (FFR) were submitted late. Criteria: The FFR is required to be submitted within the timeframe specified in the award terms and conditions. Effect: Continued non-compliance could result in a loss of funding. Context: During our testing, we found 2 of the 3 annual reports tested were submitted late. Cause: Inadequate internal controls and lack of proper staff training. Recommendation: We recommend that the Center develop and implement a formal process to ensure that all required reports are submitted timely in accordance with the award terms and conditions, despite turnover in certain positions. Management Response: See Corrective Action Plan.
