Management decision deadline — for entities that funded this organization
The FAC accepted this audit on October 1, 2024. Under 2 CFR 200.521(d), a pass-through entity that provided federal funds to this organization for this audit period must issue a management decision on these findings by April 1, 2025 (511 days ago).
What is a management decision? →As a result of our audit procedures, we found five errors in the application of the sliding fee scale. Criteria: The sliding fee scale discount is based on patient income and demographic information. Controls should be in place to ensure the sliding fee scale is consistently applied for each patient. Effect: Continued noncompliance could result in a loss of funding. Additionally, it could result in inequitable access to healthcare services for patients and expose the Center to reputational risks. Context: During our testing, we found 5 of the 60 patients tested were not billed for the proper slide category based on the sliding fee scale provided by the PureView. No questioned costs were identified. Cause: The errors resulted from claims where the sliding scale was improperly recorded within the claim. There was no check to verify that the claim scale matched the scale within the patient files. These claims were missed during the billing department’s internal review of scale application. Individuals responsible for the primary and secondary review of sliding fee scale applications requires additional training and resources to ensure errors are detected timely. Recommendation: We recommend that PureView strengthen its internal controls by reviewing claims to ensure proper application of the sliding fee scale. Management Response: See Corrective Action Plan.
