Federal Audits Reveal Accounting Failures at CCI Health Services
What happened
CCI Health Services, a nonprofit health care organization in Maryland, received over $20 million in government grants while facing federal audits regarding accounting failures. Auditors found that in the 2022 fiscal year, certain transactions were recorded in the wrong fiscal year and ledger account. These issues led to contract revenue being overstated by $87,000 and pharmacy revenue being understated by tens of thousands of dollars.

Auditors also found that managers failed to review salaries for federal awards to ensure accurate charges and neglected to update procurement policies in a timely manner.
