Corrective Action Plan

The PRHIA was proactive to ensure compliance in submitting the 2022 Single Audit Report by due date, maximizing the human resources available, in collaboration with auditors. However, we were unable to comply with the due date, mainly, because of the employees turnover as part of the aftermath of the Coronavirus Pandemic as it relates to maintaining up to date its accounting records.
