Procedural Guidelines for Financial Reporting 1. Data Collection and Consolidation:

– The Finance Department gathers all required financial data from various sub-systems daily. – An integrated Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system supports the consolidation of data across financial, payroll, and expense management modules.

Generation of Reports:

– Automated report generators create preliminary versions of monthly, quarterly, and annual financial reports. – All reports are reviewed by senior finance managers and adjusted manually where necessary for clarity and accuracy. 3. Variance Definition and Calculation: – Variance is calculated as the difference between budgeted figures and actual performance, expressed both in percentage and absolute values. – Significant variances (exceeding 5% for key metrics) trigger a formal review meeting. 4. Approval and Distribution: – Once finalized, all financial reports must pass through a review by the Director of Finance and receive final approval from the CFO. – Approved reports are automatically distributed via secure email and uploaded to the internal financial records portal. 5. Regulatory Filing and External Communication: – Financial reports relevant to regulatory submissions are compiled into designated packages and transmitted securely to external bodies, including TennCare and state licensing agencies. – All external submissions have corresponding internal documentation and confirmation receipts.
