2022-2023 Citizens’ Financial Report

Click to View the Alamance County North Carolina Citizens’ Financial Report For 2022-2023

In an effort to provide transparency and accountability to our residents, Alamance County Government presents the 2022-2023 Citizens’ Financial Report. This report is an overview of the Annual Comprehensive Financial Report that was prepared in conformance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and audited by Martin Starnes & Associates, CPAs, P.A.. The General Fund accounts for the majority of operations for the County, but differs from the GAAP financial statements because accounting data has been summarized.

Alamance County continues to invest in its employees, public safety, human services and education spending. The County, along with Alamance-Burlington School System and Alamance Community College, continue to work together through the capital facility plan to better meet the needs of our growing population. Fiscal Year 2022-2023 saw continued bond capital project spending as renovation and construction projects were well underway and many reaching completion for our schools and community college.

This report reflects our mission and the important work that our departments and partner organizations have provided to residents this year. We invite you to look over this basic report as well as the complete Annual Comprehensive Financial Report available on our website, and we encourage you to reach out to us with any questions you may have.

The Alamance County Department of Social Services (DSS) is gearing up for the initiation of North Carolina’s Medicaid Expansion on Dec. 1, 2023.

Approximately 11,000 residents in Alamance County stand to become eligible for Medicaid through this expansion. Those presently receiving Medicaid Family Planning benefits may find themselves automatically enrolled in this comprehensive healthcare coverage. Notification will be sent to those individuals eligible for automatic enrollment.

Under the Medicaid Expansion Plan, coverage will extend to citizens aged 19 to 64 with incomes up to 138% of the federal poverty level. This opens up the possibility of healthcare coverage through Medicaid for individuals who may not have qualified in the past.

Alamance County DSS encourages residents interested in enrolling for Medicaid under the expanded guidelines to utilize the convenient online application process at epass.nc.gov. A quick alternative to accessing the online application is scanning the QR code with a mobile device. This method is recognized as the fastest and easiest way to apply for benefits.

Alternatively, applicants can download the application from the website and submit it via mail, fax to (336) 260-8651 or the drop-off box conveniently located at the HSC entrance at the DSS building, 319 N. Graham Hopedale Rd., in Burlington.

While in-person applications are accepted, applicants should anticipate longer wait times due to expected high demand. To assist us with processing times, it is recommended to apply online at epass.nc.gov or by using the provided QR code.

Recognizing the significance of Medicaid Expansion for the community, Alamance County DSS staff have diligently worked to prepare for this expansion. Anticipating a surge in demand, applicants may experience prolonged wait times during the application and processing of Medicaid Expansion benefits. We ask for your understanding and patience during this time.

To further assist the community, Alamance County DSS will host an outreach event providing information and assistance with the application process. The details for this event will be announced shortly.
