UNC Health Care recognizes that certain job functions require employees to pay for travel or business expenses upfront. This is a reminder that all reimbursement requests should be accompanied by appropriate supporting documentation. Please ensure expenses submitted for reimbursement are accompanied by itemized receipts and documented business purpose.


The UNC Health Care Internal Audit Department is scheduled to perform an audit of travel and business expenses in fiscal year 2016. Expenses will be reviewed to validate business purposes and assess sufficiency of receipts. See the table below for examples of sufficient and insufficient receipts.

Expense Examples Sufficient Receipts Insufficient Receipts
Hotel Stay Hotel Invoices received at end of stay with final price Confirmation of your hotel reservation with price
Dinner Itemized receipt with list of items purchased at dinner with tip (if applicable) AND credit card receipt (if applicable) Credit card receipt that does not list items purchased at dinner
Books, Department materials, etc Itemized receipt of payment Order Summary
Conference Registration Fee Itemized payment receipts

Note: If paying for more than yourself, you must document the employees you are paying for.
