Finding Text
Condition: The Hospital did not meet its financial reporting obligations under the grant during the year. During the audit, it was determined the Hospital did not file the Data Collection Form (SFSAC) by the due date of March 31, 2023.
Criteria: The Hospital is required to file the Data Collection Form (SFSAC) within 30 days after receipt of the audit or 9 months after year-end, whichever is first.
Cause: The Data Collection Form (SFSAC) was not filed within the required period.
Effect: The Hospital was not in compliance with federal regulations and the Provider Relief Fund grant.
Recommendation: We recommend management monitor federal grant expenditures, including pass-through grants, so it is aware when $750,000 or more in federal grants were expended and a Uniform Guidance audit is required.
View of Responsible Officials: Management agrees with the finding and will review and update its policies and procedures as necessary to ensure future Data Collection Form (SFSAC) filing deadlines are met.
