Sec. 10a.
(1) The board shall annually file a written report on its activities of the immediately preceding year with the governor and each house of the legislature. The board shall submit this report not later than 90 days after the end of the fiscal year. This report must specify all of the following:
(a) The status of development of each Michigan veterans' facility.
(b) A statement whether a Michigan veterans' facility will likely be closing in the next fiscal year.
(c) The census of each Michigan veterans' facility.
(d) Accounting of all revenues received and expended.
(e) Statistics on veterans who resided in each Michigan veterans' facility.
(f) Recommendations for improvements at each Michigan veterans' facility.
(g) Salaries and benefit costs of all staff positions at all Michigan veterans' facilities.
(h) Any other matters the board considers pertinent.
(2) If the board indicates that a Michigan veterans' facility will likely be closing in the next fiscal year under subsection (1)(b), then the board shall file a supplemental report on its activities every 90 days until the Michigan veterans' facility is closed and no longer operational. The board shall file the supplemental report with the governor and each house of the legislature not later than 60 days after the 90-day period covered in the supplemental report. The supplemental report must specify all the items described in subsection (1)(a) to (h).
(3) The board's accounts must be subject to annual financial audits by the state auditor general or a certified public accountant appointed by the auditor general. The auditor general shall perform a performance audit if a Michigan veterans' facility receives a Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services survey finding that indicates a "substandard quality of care" as that phrase is defined in 42 CFR 488.301, an unsatisfactory audit from the United States Department of Veterans Affairs, upon request by either house of the legislature, or as otherwise determined by the auditor general. Records must be maintained according to generally accepted auditing principles.
