​Re: Annual Audit of Disproportionate Share Hospital Payments


To comply with federal regulations regarding disproportionate share hospital (DSH) payments, the Illinois Department of Healthcare and Family Services has contracted with Myers and Stauffer LC, a certified public accounting firm, to perform mandated audits.

The following letters from the department and from Myers and Stauffer explain the audit process and what is required of the hospitals. A Webinar was conducted on Tuesday May 3, 2011, to provide more specific instructions to hospitals, as well as answer questions. A copy of the Webinar, as well as additional information on the audit process, can be found on the Myers and Stauffer Web site.
