Abstract:
The information collected on the PRF Reporting Portal forms will be used by HRSA to (1) assess whether recipients have met statutory and programmatic requirements, (2) conduct audits, (3) gather data required to report on findings with respect to the disbursements of PRF payments, and (4) support program evaluation. HRSA staff will also use information collected to identify and report on trends in health care metrics and expenditures before and during the allowable period for expending PRF payments. If the information is not collected, HRSA will not be able to administer the programs and future distribution cycles would forcibly pause and delay or prevent the distribution of remaining appropriations to providers who are providing critical services during the pandemic. In addition, HRSA’s ability to conduct review and audits on appropriate entities will be jeopardized if data that informs the program review and audit strategies cannot be collected. Finally, effective program evaluation will be severely limited and the program itself will be unable to operate in a fiscally prudent manner.
