A for-profit corporation had multiple subsidiaries that were consolidated for financial
reporting purposes, and some of the subsidiaries also reported separately. Can the for-
profit entity fulfill the 45 CFR §75.501 audit requirements by having one financial-related
audit of all HHS awards in accordance with Government Auditing Standards that
incorporates all entities that are consolidated under Generally Accepted Accounting
Principles (GAAP)? (Added 9/13/2021)

all entities. 45 CFR §75.501(i) audit requirements permit this approach.

When should Provider Relief Fund expenditures and/or lost revenue be reported on a for-
profit entity’s Schedule of Expenditures of Federal Awards (SEFA) or other schedules
prepared for the financial-related audit option conducted in accordance with Government
Auditing Standards? (Added 8/30/2021)
Similar to non-federal entities, for-profit entities included Provider Relief Fund expenditures
and/or lost revenues on their SEFAs or other schedules for fiscal year ends (FYEs) ending on or
after June 30, 2021.
How did a for-profit entity determine the amount of expenditures and/or lost revenues to
report on its SEFA or other schedules prepared for the financial-related audit option
conducted in accordance with Government Auditing Standards (for FYEs ending on or
after June 30, 2021)? (Modified 2/16/2024)
Similar to non-federal entities, a for-profit entity’s SEFA (or other schedules) was linked to its
report submissions to the Provider Relief Fund Reporting Portal. Therefore, the timing of
reporting of Provider Relief Fund payments on the SEFA (or other schedules) were as follows:
•
For a FYE of June 30, 2021, and through FYEs of December 30, 2021, recipients were
to report on the SEFA, the total expenditures and/or lost revenues from the PRF
Reporting Portal Period 1 PRF report submission.
•
For a FYE of December 31, 2021, and through FYEs of June 29, 2022, recipients were
to report on the SEFA, the total expenditures and/or lost revenues from both the PRF
Reporting Portal Period 1 and Period 2 PRF report submissions.
•
For a FYE of June 30, 2022, and through FYEs of December 30, 2022, recipients were
to report on the SEFA, the total expenditures and/or lost revenues from both the PRF
Reporting Portal Period 2 and Period 3 PRF report submission.
•
For a FYE of December 31, 2022, and through FYEs of June 29, 2023, recipients were
to report on the SEFA, the total expenditures and/or lost revenues from both the PRF
Reporting Portal Period 3 and Period 4 PRF report submissions.
•
For a FYE of June 30, 2023, and through FYEs of December 30, 2023, recipients were
to report on the SEFA, the total expenditures and/or lost revenues from both the PRF
Reporting Portal Period 4 and Period 5 PRF report submission.
