Reviews include, but are not limited to, an examination of financial statements and audit report disclosures, Consolidated Fiscal Reports, 990s, requested supplemental interim financial statements, web research, OPWDD audit reports, media and Division of Quality Improvement findings.
The duties of the position may include, but are not limited to, the following:
· Supervise and train staff.
· Implement fiscal review process by conducting research, examining financial statements and audit disclosures, accessing other information sources and interpreting data, with consistency, to assess provider's continued viability.
· Summarize provider's financial position and make supported recommendations.
· Collaborate with the FRDA Consolidated Fiscal Reporting (CFR) Unit and the Bureau's IT to maintain, update, and utilize reported data in an effort to better identify providers with financial concerns.

· Collaboration between unit reviewers to produce a consensus report and ensure consistency and accuracy.
· Contact agencies to request financial statements and/or answer questions of concern.
