Background of the Study
Jere LGA, part of Borno State, provides essential health services to its population through public health facilities. Effective resource allocation is critical for the efficient delivery of these services. Accounting systems are central to managing public funds, tracking expenditures, and ensuring that resources are allocated where they are most needed. This study aims to evaluate the role of accounting systems in resource allocation for local government health services in Jere LGA and their influence on the quality and accessibility of healthcare.
Statement of the Problem
Jere LGA faces challenges in providing quality healthcare due to resource constraints and the inefficient allocation of available funds. The accounting systems in place may play a pivotal role in ensuring that resources are distributed optimally across health services. This study will assess how the current accounting practices influence resource allocation and whether they lead to more efficient and effective healthcare delivery.
Aim and Objectives of the Study
1. To assess the effectiveness of accounting systems in resource allocation for healthcare services in Jere LGA.
2. To examine the relationship between accounting systems and the quality of health services provided by local government health facilities.
3. To provide recommendations for improving accounting systems to optimize resource allocation in local government healthcare services.
Research Questions
1. How effective are the current accounting systems in managing resource allocation for healthcare services in Jere LGA?
2. What impact do these accounting systems have on the quality and accessibility of healthcare services in Jere LGA?
3. How can the accounting systems be improved to ensure more efficient resource allocation in local government health services?
Research Hypotheses
1. H₀: Accounting systems do not significantly affect resource allocation in local government health services in Jere LGA.
2. H₀: There is no significant relationship between accounting systems and the quality of healthcare services provided by local government health facilities.
3. H₀: Improving accounting systems will not enhance resource allocation in healthcare services in Jere LGA.
Significance of the Study
This study will highlight the importance of effective accounting systems in improving resource allocation in healthcare services. The findings will assist local government health officials in identifying areas where accounting systems can be optimized for better healthcare outcomes.
Scope and Limitation of the Study
The study will focus on the accounting systems employed by local government health services in Jere LGA. Limitations may include the availability of data on financial records and the potential for variations in accounting practices across different health facilities.
