    NOTE 1 DESCRIPTION OF REPORTING ENTITY AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

    R e p o r t i n g E n t i t y Hospital Service District No 1, Parish of St Mary (the Hospital) was created by Ordinance No 559 of the Police Jury of St Mary Parish on September 20, 1950, to operate, control, and manage matters concerning the health care of citizens west and northwest of the Wax La)te Outlet The Hospital is governed by a board of seven commissioners who are appointed by the St Mary Parish Council For this reason, the Hospital is considered to be a component unit of the St Mary Parish Government, St Mary Parish, Louisiana

    Vae of estxmates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to malte estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period Actual results could differ from those estimates

    P r o p r i e t a x y fund a c c o u n t i n g The Hospital utilizes the proprietary fund method of accounting whereby revenue and expenses are recognized using the economic resources measurement focus and the accrual basis of accounting Substantially all revenues and expenses are subject to accrual

    I n v e n t o r i e a Inventories of drugs and supplies are stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out) or market

    P r o p e r t y , P l a n t and Equipment Property and equipment acquisitions are recorded at cost Depreciation is provided over the estimated useful life of each class of depreciable asset and is computed using the straight-line method Equipment under capital lease obligations is amortized on the straight-line method over the shorter period of the lease term or the estimated useful life of the equipment Such amortization is included in depreciation and amortization in the financial statements Interest cost incurred on borrowed funds during the period of construction of capital assets IS capitalized as a component of the cost of acquiring those assets

    Gifts of long-lived assets such as land, building, or equipment are reported as unrestricted support, and are excluded from the excess of revenues over expenses, unless explicit donor stipulations specify how the donated assets must be used Gifts of long-lived assets with explicit restrictions that specify how the assets are to be used and gifts of cash or other assets that must be used to acquire long-lived assets are reported as restricted support Absent explicit donor stipulations about how long those long-lived assets must be maintained, expirations of donor restrictions are reported when the donated or acquired long-lived assets are placed in service.

    Cash and ca sh e q u i v a l e n t s Cash and cash equivalents include investments in highly liquid debt instruments with an original maturity of three months or less Use of restricted funds are determined by board resolution only

    REPORT ON COMPLIANCE AND ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING BASED ON AN ADDIT OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PERFORMED XN ACCORDANCE WITH GOVERNMENT APDITING STANDARDS

    Board of Commissioners Hospital Service D i s t r i c t No. 1 Parish of St . Mary Franklin, Louisiana

    We have audited the f inancia l s tatements of Hospital Service D i s t r i c t No 1, a component uni t of the St Mary Parish Police Jury, S ta te of Louisiana (The Hospi ta l ) , as of and for the years ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, and have issued our repor t thereon dated March 21, 2012.

    We conducted our audit in accordance with general ly accepted audi t ing standards of the United Sta tes and the standards appl icable to f inancia l aud i t s contained m Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United S t a t e s .

    INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

    In planning and performing our audit of the financiai statements of the hospital as of and for the year ended September 30, 2011 and 2010, in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted m the United States of America, we considered the Hospital's internal control over financial reporting (internal control) as a basis for designing our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinions on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Hospital's internal control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Hospital's internal control

    Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the preceding paragraph and was not designed to identify all deficiencies m internal control that might be significant deficiencies or material weaknesses and therefore there can be no assurance that all such deficiencies have been identified However, as discussed below, we identified certain deficiencies m internal control that we consider to be material weaknesses and other deficiencies that we consider to be significant deficiencies

    A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or ecployees, in the normal course of perforirj.ng their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency or combination of deficiencies m internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the entity's financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected on a timely basis We consider all deficiencies described in the accompanying "Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs and Management's Corrective Action Plan" to be material weaknesses

    A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, m internal control that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance. We consider all deficiencies described in the accompanying "Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs and Management's Corrective Action Plan" to be significant deficiencies.

  • COMPLIANCE

    As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Hospital*s financiai statements are free of material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts and grants, nonconpliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the determination of financial statement amounts. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit and, accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed instances of noncompliance that are required to be reported under Government Auditing S t a n d a r d s , which are described in the accompanying "Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs and Management's Corrective Action Plan"

    The hospital's responses to the findings identified in our audit are described in the accompanying Schedule of Findings and Questioned Costs and Management's Corrective Action Plan". We did not audit the Hospital's responses and, accordingly, we express no opinion on It.

    This report is intended for the information of the Hospital Service District No. 1 Parish of St. Mary and the Legislative Auditor of the State of Louisiana and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.

    We acknowledge with appreciation the courtesies extended our representatives during the audit

    Sincerely,
