Maryland Disability Administration Fixing Outdated Accounting Method

ANNAPOLIS, Md. -- A flawed, outdated and ineffective method of accounting is the reason why the Developmental Disabilities Administration discovered a startling $33 million in unspent funds, and Health and Mental Hygiene Secretary Joshua Sharfstein said that the agency is committed to fixing those problems.
Testifying Tuesday afternoon before the House Appropriations Committee, Sharfstein, whose department oversees the Developmental Disabilities Administration, along with several department officials, assured legislators that they are working hard internally to correct the problems.
