Brief History

The department was created in 1996 with five members of staff. The emerging     digital technology at that time made its creation necessary. Before this time, it was known as Electro-medical Unit under the Instruments Department. Most medical devices were more of mechanical principles and less of electronics and so do not require high technology unlike now when its microprocessors and computer based.

This department was formerly known as Biomedical Electronics Instruments Department until Tuesday 16^th August 2016 when it was renamed Biomedical Engineering Department.

However, we seek to close the gap between engineering and medicine. This is achieved through the application of engineering principles, design concepts to medicine and biology. It is pertinent to say that this department carries out the preventive and corrective maintenance on medical devices as well as keeping inventory, supervising and ensuring safety regulation standards on all medical equipment in the hospital.

The department has technical presence in the following areas:

(a) Owena Dialysis Centre

(b) Dental Centre

(c) Radiology Department

(d) Central Sterile Supply Department, CSSD.

(e) Main and Auxiliary Theatres and I.C.U

Other Significant Events

1. Ajoje introduced Cash Book into the system to replace the ledger books and dependency on Machine Room.
2. External Auditor: This responsibility was been handled by the Office of the Auditor General of the Federation before the introduction of Accounting Firms for this exercise. The first External Auditor was Onalaja & Co. (Auditing Firm).
3. The first hospital cashier was Mr. E. O. Jegede. Subsequent heads of the unit were: Mr. Winsala, Mr. Akangbe, Mr. T. A. Oladipo and Mrs. Sike Imilogome
4. The Fees Section was first headed by Mr. Okoye followed by Messers Oloyede, Adewumi, Adegbola and Mr. Opasina.

Presently, the department is headed by Mrs. J. O. Matthew, a Fellow of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Nigeria. The department presently has twenty – two (22) Sections that handle various aspects of Finance and Accounting of the hospital. It mainly deals with funds flow (in and out) of the hospital which included IGR, fees from patients and releases from the FGN, payment to Contractors and processing of Staff salaries.

Prior to August 2013, the salaries were prepared and paid in the Finance and Accounts Department, however, effective August 2013, the Integrated Payroll and Personnel Information System (IPPIS), a Federal Ministry of Finance Initiative has been responsible for salaries payment to permanent staff, while the department handles salary payment to other staff through Government Integrated Finance and Management Information System (GIFMIS) Platform.

Collection of fees from patient was handled by the department solely up till 2003 after which it was sublet to banks.

There are different pay points in the hospital where patients made payment while the department reconcile on daily basis.

The hospital was transacting business with commercial banks until September 15, 2015 when the Federal Government introduced the Treasury Single Account (TSA).

The department, no doubt, has grown in quality and quantity in terms of personnel, volume of financial, transactions and computerization of its services. The department is proud to have over 30 qualified Accountants among her 194 staff.

When Mr. Adetunji M.A took over the leadership of the department, Prepayment Audit was merged with Post Payment while Bank Reconciliation was abolished and has since been replaced with Fund Control and Investments owing to introduction of Treasury Single Account. (TSA) by Federal Government.

Duties of this Unit include monitoring transactions in various PPP arrangement and keeping management informed on the progress and keeping records of Hospitals’ Assets.
