Description

The AICPA Industry Audit Guide, Hospital Audit Guide, does not specifically address the financial accounting and reporting practices of hospitals that are operated by a governmental unit, but states that the practices it discusses apply to all hospitals. The AICPA Industry Audit Guide on Audits of State and Local Governmental Units refers specifically to government operated hospitals as being within the scope of the Guide. This ambiguity has caused questions to be raised as to the financial accounting and reporting practices that should be followed by hospitals that are operated by governmental units.
