4 Compliance Overview Compliance Overview PCG conducts periodic compliance reviews to verify appropriate supporting documentation is maintained by LEAs Comprehensive compliance reviews includes a review of each MSBC program component Direct Service Claiming (DSC) Medicaid Administrative Claiming (MAC) Annual cost reporting used during cost settlement Occurs at least once every three years for all participating LEAs LEAs receive a notification 30 days prior to the start of the review All reviews and reports are comprehensive with one entrance and exit meeting where all representatives are present 4
5 Tools for Success Conduct random internal periodic reviews Create checklists for departments detailing the required documentation that should be easily accessible Discuss and outline expectations with vendors in terms of the invoice requirements for reimbursement for the MSBC program Cooperate and collaborate with all departments and people within your LEA 5
6 Medicaid Administrative Claiming (MAC) 6
7 MAC Compliance Review MAC compliance reviews verify 100% of quarterly costs for the last paid MAC claim System-generated and other substantiating reports are requested for the following: Salaries Employer-paid benefits Purchased Professional Staff (PPS) costs Federal revenues Cost data from supporting documentation provided by the LEA is entered into an internal review tool and used to regenerate the applicable quarter s claim 7
8 MAC Salaries/Benefits Documentation All quarterly costs are reported on a cash-basis Salaries/benefits by pay dates within the quarter PPS costs by date invoice was paid Appropriate full/part-time employee documentation System-generated reports MUST INCLUDE: Fund/function associated with salaries and employer-paid benefits Pay dates Description of pay Employer-paid portion of benefits LEA-created documentation (Excel spreadsheet) can only be used to support the required system-generated reports 8
9 MAC Non-Allowable Funds & Functions Functions 2330, 2500, and 2600 are non-allowable lobbying 2500 (including sub-functions ) - central services 2600 (including sub-functions ) operations and maintenance Funds are federal funds and must reported appropriately With the exception of fund 290 (including sub-funds 291 and 292) Report 100% of ALL paid salaries and benefits (including non-allowable and federally-funded costs as a best practice) in the appropriate column within the Medicaid Cost Reporting and Claiming System (MCRCS) Report portions of non-allowable costs and functions, federally-funded salaries, AND all associated benefits in federal column (labeled Compensation Federal Revenues within MCRCS) MCRCS subtracts the reported federal portions from the sum of the salaries and benefits resulting in allowable costs 9
10 MAC Cost Reporting Example $6, $ $0.00 $ $7, $6,
11 MAC PPS Documentation Appropriate PPS documentation Invoices MUST INCLUDE: Participant name (first and last) as listed on the staff roster Charges allocated to specific participant Services provided System-generated payment history MUST INCLUDE: Fund/function associated with payments Date invoice was paid 11
12 MAC PPS Detailed Invoice Example 12
13 MAC Compliance Review Findings: Next Steps Variance Identified Underpayment Overpayment LEA opts to decline additional reimbursement LEA requests to amend costs to receive net reimbursement in future claim Variance amount recouped via prior period adjustment on future claim 13
14 MAC Common Findings Salaries/Benefits PPS Misidentification of allowable and non-allowable funds/functions/duties Reports generated for pay dates outside the quarter under review Participants not identified by name on invoice Non-itemized invoices Costs reported by invoice date or service date rather than date invoice was paid Pay history not provided Federal Revenues Costs not identified as federal revenue Incorrect reporting of federal revenue within MCRCS 14
15 MAC Compliance Trends 30 LEAs reviewed in LEAs underreported costs Average underpayment was $ LEAs over reported costs Average overpayment was $ LEAs had no variance Average overall variance was $71.00 overpayment (recoupment) 15
16 Percentage of Total Variances MAC Compliance Trends 100 Most Common MAC Review Variance Areas Salaries Benefits PPS Federal Funds Reporting Component Over Under 16
17 Tool for Success Maintain documentation used to enter cost data Know your payroll software, available reports, and resources Report quarterly costs on cash-basis Accurately identify and report allowable and non-allowable costs, in addition to federal funds Work with contractors to receive invoices with required program components Prepare and submit documentation early 17
18 LEAs that have built success Congratulations to the following LEAs who achieved an overall final score of 100% on the MAC portion of their OD13 comprehensive compliance review: Apache Junction Unified School District Flowing Wells Unified School District Willcox Unified School District Winslow Unified School District 18
19 Annual Cost Reporting 19
20 MAC Quarterly costs reported for DS and Admin staff Cash-based method Post-payment review Results in quarterly claim reimbursement Allowable Salaries, Benefits, and PPS are the same Report within MCRCS Only staff included on RMTS roster may have associated costs reported Annual Annual costs reported for DS, Personal Care, and transportation staff Accrual method Pre-payment review Used to calculate cost settlement 20
21 Annual Cost Reporting The annual component of the review verifies the certified DSC annual costs within the Medicaid Cost Reporting and Claiming System (MCRCS) against LEA supplied supporting documentation including: Salary and benefit information for direct medical service providers and transportation staff IEP Ratio information Transportation data Documentation is reviewed and entered into the annual compliance review tool and compared to costs reported in MCRCS for that period If the supporting documentation reviewed does not match what was reported that information must be corrected within MCRCS in a timely fashion to ensure a pre payment correction All annual costs must be reported on an accrual accounting methodology 21
22 Transportation Other Cost Data All transportation other costs are reviewed by PCG to ensure accuracy in transportation reporting PCG continues to ensure that LEAs understand the difference in reporting specialized transportation versus general transportation As a reminder, general transportation does not mean exclusively general/regular education costs, these costs must pertain to a vehicle that is physically adapted and has at least one claimable route ridden exclusively by special education students who have specialized transportation in their IEP Specialized transportation criteria must pertain exclusively, 100% of the time to a vehicle that is physically adapted and is always ridden entirely by special education students with specialized transportation in their IEPs 22
23 Transportation Other Cost Data Transportation Other Costs categories reviewed: Lease/Rental Insurance Maintenance and Repairs Fuel and Oil Purchased Professional Services The invoices, contracts, and all other appropriate supporting documentation for these costs must be appropriately identified as specialized or general and figures have to align with what was reported in MCRCS Creativity in reporting transportation costs is a major audit risk, only report allowable costs When in doubt, ask PCG 23
24 Transportation Other Cost Data If PCG identifies non-allowable costs in transportation other costs data documentation, they must be removed. Some examples include: Purchased professional services contracts covering the wrong time period OR are for general/regular education transportation costs only Prorated fuel and oil bills (or other cost category) If you cannot discretely break down specialized transportation costs, lump sums must be reported as general if they pertain to a vehicle that is physically adapted and has at least one claimable route ridden exclusively by special education students who have specialized transportation in their IEP Non-allowable costs (commonly found in Maintenance and Repairs) Costs must pertain to the operation of the vehicle (making the vehicle go) These costs must be discretely identified by documentation to ascertain what exactly the cost category was 24
25 Transportation Other Cost Data Costs reported as transportation other costs must pertain to operation of the vehicle (making the vehicle go!) Are these costs allowable? Invoice for copy paper for the transportation office? Physicals for your bus drivers? Oil filters for you physically modified vehicles? Uniforms for your drivers? Transportation Software Systems? A set of new tires for your specialized bus? 25
26 Trip Ratio Trip ratio denominator is reported using either total actual count of specialized trips provided, or by conservative reporting of total number of special education students by two trios a day and then the total number of school days This ratio drives costs down to the Medicaid eligible portion of your specialized transportation costs Supporting documentation provided by LEAs and reviewed by PCG for the transportation trip ratio denominator includes: IEPs ensuring that students had specialized transportation properly prescribed in their IEP Bus logs indicating that the student was actually on the bus for the days in which trips were reported PCG also reviews the desk review statement of understanding to ensure the LEA has a proper system in place and understands how to report the denominator of the trip ratio 26
27 IEP Ratio The IEP Ratio is the driving factor in apportioning Medicaid allowable direct medical service costs by allocating costs to the Medicaid eligible special education population who have a reimbursable related service within their IEP PCG reviews a sample of IEPs to ensure that students captured in the IEP Ratio, based off of the student roster, do indeed have a valid prescribed reimbursable medical service on October 1, of the reviewed year Common issues identified as part of the compliance review which led to students being removed from either the denominator and/or numerator of the ratio (based off eligibility) IEP did not cover the proper date A qualified medical professional did not sign and date the IEP Reimbursable service was not prescribed 27
28 Vehicle Ratio & Transportation Depreciation If a LEA has reported transportation costs as generalized PCG uses information reported in the transportation depreciation section along with documentation to verify the vehicle ratio has been reported correctly PCG also reviews desk review responses pertaining to the vehicle ratio to ensure the LEA understands the requirements Common examples of documentation reviewed includes: Vehicle Asset Ledgers ADE Vehicle Report Only vehicles that are physically adapted and have at least one claimable route ridden exclusively by special education students who have specialized transportation in their IEP should be depreciated The denominator of the vehicle ratio is all vehicles used to transport students (not including maintenance or general district vehicles) 28
29 Annual Cost Reporting Next Steps Completing the annual compliance review component Annual Compliance Reviews are pre-payment reviews and all findings must be corrected within MCRCS once the review finalizes PCG will open up the LEAs Annual DSC Cost Report LEA must make corrections and re-certify within 20 working days This is a crucial step in the process to ensure proper payment LEAs who identify systemic issues as a result of a finding from the annual compliance review should take that opportunity to revisit future cost reports to ensure programmatic compliance moving forward Overall, LEAs continue to exhibit a more robust understanding of annual requirements, kudos for your efforts! The more you know and the better you document, the more compliant you are! 29
30 Total Number of LEAs Annual Compliance Trends Most Common Annual Review Adjustment Areas 76.67% % 20.00% 46.67% 24.00% 0 Cost Data Trans. Other Costs Trip Ratio IEP Ratio Vehicle Ratio Reporting Component Adjustment Needed 30
31 Tool for Success Ensure Student Roster is submitted correctly to PCG and IEPs are valid for direct medical services and/or transportation (if prescribed) All costs reported must tie back to documentation, make certain that all annual certified costs match the source Transportation costs must be allowable and relate to the operation of vehicles (making the vehicle go) Questionable costs must be removed! Meet with your transportation department on all requirements to verify costs and ratios are reported correctly Document everything. If you didn t document it, it didn t happen! 31
