§300s–4 — Title 42 The Public Health and Welfare | U.S. Code

Summary

Anyone who gets federal money for a health facility — like a payment, grant, loan, or loan guarantee — must file reports at least annually with the State Agency where the facility is located and must also file at least annually with the Secretary. These reports must follow the form the Secretary requires and must show the facility’s financial operations, the costs of providing health services, and the charges for those services during the reported period. Each recipient must keep records the Secretary requires. Records must show how the federal money was used, the total cost of the project, how much came from other sources, and any other papers needed for an audit. The Secretary and the Comptroller General, or their authorized representatives, may inspect any books, documents, papers, or records they believe are related to the federal assistance.
