COVID-19 has resulted in additional funding for Health Centers. As frequently happens with new federal funding the compliance environment evolves with the latest frequently asked question (FAQ) updates, new reporting guidelines and documentation standards. While the environment is changing that doesn’t mean Health Centers can wait passively for a perfect future date to begin taking compliance seriously. In this session we will provide an update on the current grants management environment. We will share what we know, what we don’t know and provide insight into how the compliance environment is evolving. We can be certain that things will continue to change, but this session will provide confirmation for some, ideas for many, and motivation for others. Compliance is a required part of this funding and ignorance is not an excuse that the Office of Inspector General (OIG) accepts. Join BKD for this session as we work to help you and your Health Center reduce your risk for this federal funding. We are entering the phase of accountability for this funding and we want you to be prepared.
