PEEL
HEALTH CAMPUS — AUDIT
669. Mr R.H. COOK to the Minister for Health:
I have a supplementary question. Can the minister confirm
that PricewaterhouseCoopers raised broader concerns other than just the issue
of admissions; and, if so, why did the minister decide not to extend an audit
of other practices going on in that hospital?

AnswerView source ↗

The report that came to me about the investigation from
PricewaterhouseCoopers related to the overcharges, what occurred and the amount
that needed to be paid back, and we ensured that those amounts were paid back.
PricewaterhouseCoopers did not come to me with any recommendations of further
investigations that needed to be undertaken.
