ABSTRACT 
This  research  work  on  A  Comparative  Study  of  Expenditure  Controls method  in  Government  and  private  Hospitals  is  aimed  at  studying  and analysing  the  different  methods  of  expenditure  control  that  is  being adopted  by  these  hospitals,  their  practical  application  and  their  level  of effectiveness.  It  is  aimed  at  carrying  out  a  comparative  analysis  of  two hospitals.  To  achieve  the  aim  of  this  research,  secondary  data  through textbooks and journals were used to review some of the related literatures. Equally,  questionnaires,  interview  and  observation,  which  sought  to  find out  facts  needed  for  analysing,  were  used.  The  questionnaires  were analyzed  by  simple  percentages  while  hypothesis  were  tested  using  chi-square  statistics. The  findings  of the  analysis  indicate  among  others that the  method  of  expenditure  control  used  by  both  hospitals  are  not  the same;  The  daily  control  method  for  private  hospitals  and  the  vote  card method  for  Government  Hospitals.  The  different  methods  of  expenditure control  used  by  the  two  hospitals  are  effective, but  with  slight  loopholes associated with vote card method. I  recommend among others that both hospitals  should  adhere  strictly  to  authorization  procedure  for  drug purchased  and  materials  purchases.  Both  hospitals  should  exhibit  high degree of cash management and employ competent personnel for proper and efficient expenditure control.
