University of Iowa Tightens Controls After Health Care Fraud
The University of Iowa overhauled accounting safeguards after internal investigators found a former employee altered six health care spending account reimbursements totaling 7 404 dollars to appear as if submitted by departed workers. Changes to six employee bank accounts were also made and directed to an account owned by a human resources clerk who was terminated and charged. The State Auditor's Office and university say new automatic change alerts and verification procedures have been implemented to prevent recurrence.
