Evaluations were performed for potentially eligible expense claims from the fiscal year ending June 30, 2024, revealing that three of four extraordinary claims qualified for subsidy payments. Adjustments have been recommended for accurate reporting, and revised reports must be submitted through the iPACRs system. If eligible, the facility can choose which method to calculate their 2026 subsidy payment. This is an automated summary. Please rely on the contents included in the released audit report.
