Overview

Financial Management Reviews (FMR) and Legislative Mandate Reviews (LMR) are targeted reviews that certain grant recipients and organizations must undergo throughout the life of a grant. The FMR/LMR Module in the EHBs was created to integrate the FMR/LMR process, previously performed manually, within the EHBs in a structured format. The FMR/LMR Module enables HRSA to initiate and conduct reviews and enables grant recipients to respond to review requests and corrective action requests.

Types of Reviews

Per federal requirements, grant recipients with federal expenditures above $750,000 in one year require an audit. Grant recipients with federal expenditures below $750,000 undergo Financial Management Review (FMR).  Grant recipients not deemed as major programs undergo Legislative Mandate Review (LMR), even when their federal expenditures are above $750,000. 

There are four types of FMR/LMR reviews: 

  • Routine FMRs: Applicable to grant recipients whose expenditures are below $750,000 and have been required to undergo an audit within the past two fiscal years. 
  • Targeted FMRs: Applicable to grant recipients identified by HRSA through audits or program visits as having elevated risk due to possible inadequate financial management systems or financial instability.
  • LMRs: Applicable to recipients of grants that are not deemed as major programs (i.e., H80 Health Center Program), after having undergone an audit. 
  • Combined Routine FMR-LMR: Applicable to recipients of grants that are not deemed as major programs (i.e., H80 Health Center Program) whose expenditures are below $750,000 and have not had an audit within the past two fiscal years.
