(Recorded Webinar) Responding to Audit Findings

Duration: 45 minutes
Recorded on: 7/21/2022

Health Centers have received literally billions of dollars in new federal funding in the past 2 plus years and the audits by the HHS Office of Inspector General, among other oversight agencies, have started.  This webinar will discuss how this new funding  has not changed the core principle that the federal grant system is a “trust but verify” system where compliance is driven by an after-the-fact review of grantee actions; a system where the grantees have the burden of proof to show that federal funds were used appropriately.

In this presentation, Feldesman Managing Partner Ted Waters will bring years of experience to bear in his in-depth discussion of risks, strategies, and opportunities in the audit process.  Based upon the legal underpinnings of the federal grant system and government rights to impose remedial measures, Mr. Waters will provide practical guidance for Health Centers on the “do’s and don’t’s” in audit process and audit resolution.

Please note: This webinar is offered as a complimentary product to all Health Center Compliance Premium Plan Subscribers. For more information on our Premium Plan, click here or Contact Us.

Certificates of Attendance: We verify attendance upon completion of a webinar (live or recorded version) and will only issue certificates in the name of the account holder enrolled in the course. If you need to document attendance for someone other than the account holder, we provide blank Certificates of Attendance for a supervisor to sign and certify that a different individual viewed the course. 

Group Attendance: Due to the online nature of webinars, we cannot verify participation by more than one person. For groups, we provide an attendance record form and blank Certificates of Attendance to record attendance at a group viewing session and document each individual's participation. We recommend that a supervisor or colleague sign the certificate to certify attendance.
