Check Writing Process

About the Program

Category: Financial Management (Best in Category)

Year: 2022

The Maricopa County Human Services Department established a new check writing process, including review and issuance of payments, by internalizing the review. This change ensures greater accountability, fiscal responsibility, and greater programmatic oversight over the issuance of monies. This change is also unique among many jurisdictions who, when reviewing their check writing process, may decide to contract for these services because of potential cost savings.
