Audit and compliance committee reports progress on FY25 closeout and approves FY26 audit plan; finance shows year-to-date collections ahead of budget
Summary
At the Sept. 24 Public Health Trust meeting, committee chairs and auditors reviewed the fiscal 2025 audit closeout, discussed AI use in auditing, approved the 2026 audit plan, and presented August financials showing year-to-date performance ahead of budget.
The Audit and Compliance subcommittee reported on Sept. 24 that KPMG auditors presented progress on the fiscal 2025 audit plan and discussed integrating artificial intelligence tools into audit work. Committee members said the fiscal 2025 compliance plan is closing out satisfactorily and that the 2026 audit plan was reviewed and approved by the committee.
"We had the quarterly audit and compliance subcommittee meeting and presentation during which our KPMG auditors touched on the progress for the audit plan for 2025 fiscal year, including the use of AI in the audit," the committee report said. Committee members Jamal and Andre were cited as presenting progress on closing out the 2025 audit plan and on the 2026 plan; Chief Compliance Officer Raul reported on the closeout of the 2025 compliance plan.
Separately, Carmen Sabater presented financial results through August, reporting that Jackson remains ahead of budget year to date despite some service-level headwinds in August and that August had "very strong collections".
The committee’s 2026 audit plan was approved at the committee level during the meetings described to the full board; the full board did not record a separate roll-call vote on the audit plan during the brief plenary session.
Ending — Committee reports and the financial presentation concluded without additional board action during the public session.
