Yes, if funds were held in an interest-bearing account. Interest earned would then be reported in “Other Assistance.” If interest is earned on Provider Relief Fund disbursements that the Reporting Entity expended in full, the interest amounts may be retained and applied toward a reportable use of funds.
If interest is earned on funds that are only partially expended, the interest on remaining unused funds must be calculated, reported and returned if not applied to a permissible use of funds.
