Recipients were not notified of treatment review panel meetings
|
FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS, AND
RECOMMENDATIONS INADEQUATE NOTIFICATION TO RECIPIENTS The Center did not provide notice of treatment review panel
meetings to recipients. According to 405 ILCS 5/2-107.2 (b) “at least seven days
prior to the date of the meeting, the recipient, his or her guardian, if any,
and the person designated under subsection (b) of Section 2-200 shall be
given written notification of the time and place of the treatment review
meeting.” During our engagement, we requested documentation of the
written notifications for 20 recipients; however, the Center could not
provide. According to Center management, there was a misunderstanding
regarding the notification procedures.
(Finding 1, page 9.) The Center accepted our recommendation to implement
procedures to ensure notification is properly provided in accordance with the
statue.
AUDITORS' OPINION
We conducted a special limited compliance attestation engagement of the Center as required by the Illinois State Auditing Act. The Center is not required to prepare financial statements. The financial statements are prepared on a Department wide basis.
