Miami hospital nonprofit under investigation for 'possible misappropriation' of funds
Briefly

The Jackson Health Foundation, part of Miami's public hospital system, is under investigation for potential misappropriation of funds as identified in a recent audit. Governed by a volunteer board, the foundation's financial practices are separate from Jackson Health's operations and do not affect its accounting records. A forensic expert and law enforcement are involved to ensure an unbiased review. The issue was found shortly after the end of the fiscal year 2024. Jackson Health has since enhanced financial controls and oversight of the Foundation to prevent future issues.
Jackson Health System has since implemented additional financial controls and administrative oversight of the Foundation, which included the restructuring of its staff.
The investigation is being conducted by an independent forensic expert along with law enforcement to ensure a thorough and unbiased review.
