We have heard that audits are increasing and while no one has touched any of our Clients it may be just a matter of time as the auditors seem to be everywhere.  Based on that we recommend the following:

• Make sure you have a Security Risk Assessment up to date. 
• Risks assessments should be conducted annually.
• Implement a Risk Management Plan as result of the Risk Assessment.
• Use a third party to show impartiality.
• Create a Book of Evidence for every Provider who received any incentive money.
• Conduct a brief assessment of your Meaningful Use documentation.

Remember that TC Inc. has and will continue to provide assessments, preparation of “Books of Evidence” and a wide variety of tools and guidance thru our expert advisors, tools and Compliance Software.
