EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

This letter report provides the results of our audit of the Allopathic Medicine Health Professions Student Loans (HPSL) Program at the University of Florida. The HPSL program was implemented through the Public Health Service Act. The Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) has overall management responsibilities for the program at the Federal level.

We determined that the University was appropriately using HPSL funds to provide loans to eligible medical students and was appropriately administering the HPSL funds. However, we identified one account which should have been classified as an uncollectible loan. We are recommending that the University reimburse the HPSL fund an amount of $8,226 for the uncollectible HPSL loan.
