Software Solution for Complex Accounting - 8/10/2016

The Central Accounting Services Unit (CAS) at the California Department of Public Health (CDPH) is responsible for verifying the Local Health Departments’ (LHDs’) expenditures, confirming that the LHD has appropriately calculated the Indirect Cost Rate (ICR), and issuing official correspondence documenting the approved ICR.

CIMES developed the CAS’ first electronic system to allow LHDs to submit their annual expenditures to the CDPH Central Accounting Service Unit for review and approval. Previously, LHDs had to manually enter and calculate expenditures and the ICR. The ICR Tool facilitates the CDPH annual review, revisions, and approvals of districts’ indirect cost rate schedules.
