Control Tool
An audit is a systematic and official
examination of a record, process, structure,
environment, or account to evaluate
performance. Auditing in health care
organizations provides managers with a
means of applying the control process to
determine the quality of services rendered.
Auditing can occur retrospectively,
concurrently, or prospectively.
Retrospective audits – Are performed after the
patient receives the service.
