Corrective Action Plan

SIGNIFICANT DEFICIENCIES: 2022-001, 2022-002 Name of contact person: Candace Hodgkins, Ph.D., LMHC, CEO Corrective action: Management agrees with these findings. Many reports have been created to catch a variety of errors over the course of the year, and these reports are disseminated to staff on a daily basis. Additional reports are developed as issues are identified. Billing staff have been provided re-training in the usage of the electronic health record as recently as April 2022, which should alleviate setup issues with the coverage plans in the client account. To prevent billing to the wrong funding/program, billing staff will review the charges on a daily basis to spot incorrect amounts, incorrect assignment of the liability, or other errors that may arise. Each month end, data is reconciled with the KIS state data system and Invoice submitted to LSF. Any issues are corrected up to the time the invoice is approved. Finance will continue to monitor the amounts paid on the invoice match the units submitted at the point of time the month was closed. Corrections will be made in the year-to-date data submission sent in the following month if identified after a month end close.
