Grants Management: Financial Policy Considerations in Preparation for HRSA Site Visits

Session presenters will review the Financial Capacity Review document, currently utilized by the Division of Financial Integrity (DFI) of HRSA, to analyze financial policies and procedures in place at health centers. This document contains 17 management control areas that HRSA believes will ensure that grant recipients have policies in place that are compliant with the Uniform Grants Guidance and the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Grants Policy Statement. Special consideration will be made for findings most commonly disclosed in single audit reports, HHS Office of Inspector General reports, HRSA Operational Site Visit reports, and DFI grant reviews which are designed to ensure health centers have safeguards in place for the appropriate financial stewardship of federal funds.
