Effect or potential effect– Grant funds were drawn down sooner than administratively necessary.

Cause – The Organization did not comply with their sliding fee policy. Effect or potential effect– Sliding fee discounts were given to patients that were inconsistent with the Organization’s sliding fee discount policy. Questioned Costs – None Context – A selection of 25 encounters were testing out of the total population of 81,898 encounters.
