United States Department of Health and Human Services 2021-001 COVID-19 Provider Relief Fund ? Assistance Listing No. 93.498 Recommendation: Recommendation that the Organization review and improve its procedures for tracking costs and related tracking mechanisms, ensuring that all costs claimed are fully supported. Explanation of disagreement with audit finding: There is no disagreement with the audit finding. Action taken in response to finding: In the future, for any Federal Grants that we receive, we will directly charge a specific grant-related general ledger account for any costs related to the grant. The unique nature of covid-related infection control spending crossing multiple vendors both new and existing and the emergency nature of Federal funding relief made planning for and implementing a more robust accounting and control solution very difficult. Please know that although one expense was found during the audit to be overstated by $20,474 that, in aggregate, we sustained large amounts of excess spending that were not claimed but could have easily offset this difference had it been identified earlier. Name(s) of the contact person(s) responsible for corrective action: Francis Murphy. Planned completion date for corrective action plan: 9/12/2022.

The unique nature of covid-related infection control spending crossing multiple vendors both new and existing and the emergency nature of Federal funding relief made planning for and implementing a more robust accounting and control solution very difficult. As early as late 2020, we created a new department cost code to track and account for hourly workers manning our covid screening program. We will implement time tracking controls as necessary to document staff or management time charged to any future Federal grants.
