PYA Principals Martie Ross and Catherine Bunch are quoted in a recent HCCA Report on Medicare Compliance article. “HRSA Plans Several Audits of Provider Relief Fund; Reporting Requirements Raise Alarm” covers important information providers need to know about the use and reporting of provider relief funds.

“‘If a health care organization gets $2 million and has a June 30 year-end date, and expended $1 million before June 30, and the rest after, it will have two fiscal years subject to single audit requirements,’ [Bunch] noted.”
