In this episode, the importance of internal audits in medical practices is highlighted. Internal audits play a crucial role in ensuring compliance with regulations, identifying areas for improvement, and preventing fraud and errors. They help medical practices maintain high standards of patient care, operational efficiency, and financial integrity. Through regular internal audits, practices can proactively address issues, mitigate risks, and enhance overall performance, ultimately leading to better patient outcomes and organizational success.

If you would like more information on conducting internal audits, or you are interested in having an independent audit, you can reach us at coaching@ams-nc.com.
