Background of the Study
The effective management of healthcare budgets is crucial for ensuring that funds are allocated properly, resources are optimized, and financial accountability is maintained. Accounting Information Systems (AIS) are widely recognized for their role in improving financial transparency and management efficiency. In Doma Local Government Area (LGA), healthcare budgeting often faces challenges such as misallocation of funds, delayed disbursement, and lack of proper monitoring. This study will assess how AIS has been implemented to improve the management of healthcare budgets in the LGA.
Statement of the Problem
Doma LGA struggles with inefficiencies in managing its healthcare budgets due to the absence of comprehensive systems to track and allocate funds. AIS, if properly implemented, can offer solutions by automating processes, reducing errors, and enhancing budget monitoring. However, the extent to which AIS has been effectively utilized in healthcare budgeting in Doma LGA is unclear.
