During the audit conducted by the Accounts Chamber, violations were found in the areas of procurement, storage, distribution, and accounting of medical supplies. The main issues include non-compliance with legislative requirements and insufficient internal control, which also complicates financial management. Problems include inaccuracies in demand planning, inadequate economic efficiency in procurement, and discrepancies between accounting and inventory records.
The audit also revealed other serious deficiencies, such as partial non-compliance with procedures during public procurement, an increase in accounts receivable and payable, as well as instances of expired medications. Additionally, the branch "El Aman" faced challenges in inventory management and payroll issues.
Based on the identified violations, recommendations were made to improve budget discipline, strengthen internal control, optimize procurement and accounting processes, and address the identified deficiencies. Some amounts need to be returned to the budget and restored.
Implementing the recommendations from the Accounts Chamber could significantly enhance the efficiency of "Kyrgyzpharm" and ensure uninterrupted supplies of medical goods while rationally utilizing budget resources.
