Stichting Dichterbij

Substantiating costs

The Stichting Dichterbij delivers local healthcare services (nursing, care and day centres) for people with learning difficulties. Due to shifts in parts of the funding flows from government to local authorities, its costs had to be substantiated in detail.

Task description

Together with KPMG, substantiated the organisation’s operating costs in order to show external accountability and obtain funding.




Results

  • Overview of coverage for each service
  • Documented model
  • Validation document
  • Benchmark overview of regions

Approach

Together with the organisation and KPMG, drew up a cost overview for each service to serve as a basis for financing by local authorities. Assessed the current situation with the auditors, and agreed and documented assumptions. Finally, drew up reports with costs and charges for all services and comparisons between regions.
