About This Audit
The amended financial report for CHS Berwick Freestanding Psychiatric Hospital, covering the period from July 1, 2023, to June 30, 2024, includes various worksheets and statistical data adjustments related to the Pennsylvania Medical Assistance (MA) Program. The department conducted procedures at the request of the Department of Human Services (DHS) to certify the costs in the facility’s submitted MA-336 cost report. Adjustments were made relating to inpatient days, MA discharges, and nursing administration statistics. The report identifies both the reliability of data from the DHS’s PROMISe™ system and areas of undetermined reliability, particularly regarding paid MA days and discharges. The report’s findings are used exclusively by DHS to set reimbursement rates for the facility. This is an automated summary. Please rely on the contents included in the released audit report.
