Current as of January 02, 2024 | Updated by Findlaw Staff

Sec. 14. (a) The governing board shall take, hold, disburse, and dispose of, for the benefit of the hospital, all real or personal property or other property that is a part of hospital funds in accordance with this article.

(b) The board may accept gifts, devises, bequests, or grants upon the conditions directed by the donor if the conditions are not contrary to law.  However, if the hospital was constructed by a county building authority under IC 36-9-13, the powers of the board do not include those powers vested by IC 36-9-13 in the building authority.

(c) The board may transfer a part of the hospital funds to a nonprofit corporation organized under IC 23-7-1.1 (before its repeal on August 1, 1991) or IC 23-17 that is:

(1) a hospital foundation organized and operated for the exclusive benefit of the hospital;  or

(2) a related or controlled entity;

if adequate provision is made for working capital and other known and anticipated hospital needs.

(d) If a transfer includes public funds of the hospital, the public funds transferred to the foundation or related or controlled entity may be audited by the state board of accounts unless:

(1) the hospital foundation or related or controlled entity files annually with the treasurer of the hospital a copy of an audit report prepared by an independent certified public accountant;  and

(2) the audit report is on file at the hospital and is made available to the state board of accounts.
