An audit was done of the Health Science Center, a |
|
teaching hospital in the State University of New York |
|
(SUNY) system at Syracuse. The audit addressed whether |
|
Syracuse has effective controls over selected payroll, |
|
equipment and inventory expenses. Syracuse reported an |
|
operating loss for 1990 of over $21 million dollars. The |
|
audit found that management's controls were not effective |
|
in ensuring that payments for certain payroll costs were |
|
reasonable and proper with the consequence that Syracuse |
|
may spend too much on staffing. To ensure that staff is |
|
available to meet patient needs, Syracuse uses an "on- |
|
call" and a "re-call" service. As a result of reviewing |
|
499 employee timecards, the audit recommends that |
|
management implement better monitoring and control of on- |
|
call and re-call activities. Appendixes contain |
|
information on major contributors to the report, comments |
|
of SUNY officials, and State Comptroller's notes. (JB) |
