Re: Subcontractor Budget Review for the Cigarette Restitution Fund (CRFP) Cancer Prevention, Education, Screening and Treatment Program (CPEST)
_________________________________________________________________________________
Due to a recent audit finding, the Department has directed all programs to assure that each local program reviews and maintains documentation of each subcontractor cost reimbursement contract. Please note that this requirement does not apply to clinical fee-for-service contracts. Local health departments (LHD) and the Statewide Academic Health Centers are the prime contractor/vendor with DHMH. If a LHD contracts with an external organization, such as the Community Action Agency, the organization is considered a subcontractor.
Cost reimbursement contracts can be grants or contracts with private vendors to perform a service for the main vendor. Programs are required to review and certify the subcontractor budgets at the beginning of the grant cycle, or contract start date. The certification must be complete before any money is awarded to the subcontractor. This requirement is applicable beginning Fiscal Year 2010. This procedure must be followed for all cost reimbursement contracts.
At minimum, your health officer/designee must attest that you have completed a comprehensive review of your CRFP-CPEST subcontractor budgets for each cost reimbursement contract or grant. The review process must provide assurance that (1) subcontractor budgets include the same level of detail as the prime contractor’s (your) budget and (2) that the steps performed in your comprehensive review of subcontractor budgets include:

• Documentation of the deliverables/performance measures expected from the subcontractor
• Documentation of the resources needed by the subcontractor to provide the deliverables/performance measures
• Determination of the reasonableness of the subcontractor’s budgeted resources for providing the expected deliverables/performance measures
• Approval of line item expenses in the subcontractor’s budget based on historical data or recent financial analysis.
Your subcontractor budget(s) and all correspondence between the grantee/prime contractor (you) and the subcontractor must be kept on record by the grantee/prime contractor (you). This document must be available for audit by the Family Health Administration or the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene.
Documentation of the subcontractor review must be made on the attached Appendix A which is included in the FY2010 Conditions of Award for FHA local health department grants. A hard copy of the signed form must be returned directly to:
Barbara Andrews, Program Manager
CRF Programs Unit, Center for Cancer Surveillance and Control
Maryland Department of Health and Mental Hygiene
201 W. Preston Street, Room 406A
Baltimore, MD 21201
Please do not send the form with the electronic budget package for Unified Funding Documents.
Finally a memorandum acknowledging the receipt and approval of the sub provider budget review, see Appendix B template, will be sent to the health officer/designee by the Center for Cancer Surveillance and Control, CRFP Unit.
If you have any questions about this requirement please contact Ms. Barbara Andrews, Manager, CRF Programs Unit at (410) 767-5123 or via e-mail at bandrews@dhmh.state.md.us.
