This CMS audit training will address the types of information CMS is seeking, the documentation that you need to have to demonstrate not only compliance, but good faith as well.
Almost all Covered Entities are likely not in compliance of some aspect of HIPAA to one degree or another, but demonstrations of good faith and intent to comply go along way with auditors.
Attend this 60-minute webinar to learn the basic elements of preparing for a CMS audit. By developing a plan, addressing shortcomings and deficiencies before the auditors arrive and having all the documentation available and up to date, you can survive a CMS audit and live to tell about it.

How can you avoid a finding of willful neglect?Almost all Covered Entities are likely not in compliance of some aspect of HIPAA to one degree or another, but demonstrations of good faith and intent to comply go along way with auditors.
