Abstract

Action Requested: Vote on a request to approve $45,106.30 Debt Write-Off

 

 

 

Introduction & Background: Based on the Chatham County Public Health Department Fee Policy, outstanding account having no activity in more than twelve (12) months shall constitute a debt write-off.  These procedures allow the Health Department to clear outstanding account for the reference time period.

 

                     

Discussion & Analysis: Debts of client accounts having no activity for more than twelve (12) months are resented to the Board of Health and Board of county Commissioners for write-off consideration.  Any activity in the client’s account after the write-off shall reactivate the debt and collection efforts will resume.  The write-off for Patient Fees in the Clinical Community Health Services Division for 07-01-15 thru 06-30-16

Is $45,106.30.

 

                     

 

Budgetary Impact: The budgetary impact of the debt write-off results in uncollectible revenue totaling $45,106.30.

 

                     

Recommendation: Vote on a request to approve $45,106.30 Debt Write-Off
