 Community Mental Health Mental Retardation Centers' Expenditures
The State Auditor's Office in Texas conducted an audit to determine
whether the Texas Department of Aging and Disability Services and
the Department of State Health Services are ensuring that the
state's community mental health mental retardation (MHMR) centers are
spending state funding as intended. The audit included a review of
data generated between September 1, 2004 and February 28, 2006,
interview responses from two MHMR centers, contracts, visit reports,
and financial records. At the two centers, the auditors identified
questionable spending of $44,499 for FY 2005, and $15,237 for fiscal
year 2006. Overall, the auditors found that the community MHMR
centers were spending funds as they instructed. However, because
expenses were not linked to a funding source, the auditors
identified some expenditures for employee incentives as
questionable.
