BATON ROUGE, La. (Louisiana First) — Auditors found exceptions totaling $206.3 million from $1.47 billion in Public Assistance reimbursement requests between July 1, 2024, and June 30, 2025.

According to the report, auditors identified problems in five categories:

  • Lack of supporting documentation
  • Missing procurement documentation
  • Out-of-scope expenses
  • Ineligible expenses
  • Errors

The Louisiana Legislative Auditor said the Governor’s Office of Homeland Security and Emergency Preparedness resolved some documentation questions and is working to resolve others before final payments are issued.

“Your reports continue to assist us in the improvement of our processes and provide important feedback which will assist us in achieving our 100% accuracy goal,” GOHSEP Assistant Deputy Director of the Public Assistance Division Lynne Browning wrote in response.
