The Plan creates a comprehensive and centralized system of oversight for bill coding, education, chart review, reporting and discipline (“Discipline,” as used throughout this policy shall include all steps described in the Human Resource policy manual and faculty policies and regulations including, without limitation, termination and tenure revocation). This Plan provides for oversight by a Compliance Program Medical Director and Compliance Officer. Although the intent is to encourage compliance through a centralized audit system, it remains the responsibility of each individual involved with the billing process, from physicians and other providers to clerical staff, to comply with the law. The purpose of this Plan is to ensure that clinical services are adequately documented and that properly coded bills are submitted only for documented services. This Plan is to be read in conjunction with and is an integral part of the University of Rochester Medical Center Compliance Plan, which is set forth in a separate document. In addition, it is anticipated that individual departments of the University will create specialty-specific billing compliance plans, which will be subject to review by the Compliance Program Medical Director and Compliance Officer. The University acknowledges that this plan is only the beginning...

...CHAPTER 1 The Role of the Public Accountant in the American Economy Review Questions 1–1 The “crisis of credibility” largely arose from the number of companies that restated their previously issued financial statements as a result of accounting irregularities and fraud. Especially responsible were the very visible Enron and WorldCom fraud cases. Both companies filed for bankruptcy and constituted the largest companies in American history to do so. The extent of the accounting irregularities and fraud being investigated and disclosed brought into question the effectiveness of financial statement audits. In addition, the criminal conviction of Arthur Andersen, LLP, one of the then Big 5 accounting firms, on charges of destroying documents related to the Enron case brought into question the ethical standards of the profession. 1–2 Assurance services are professional services that enhance the quality of information, or its context, for decision making. The two types are: (a) those that increase the reliability of information and (b) those that involve putting information in a form or context that facilitates decision making. 1–3 A financial statement audit is, by far, the most common type of attest engagement.

Most attacks involve the opportunistic exploitation of bugs; and software that is very large, very widely used, or both (as with operating systems) is particularly likely to have security bugs found and publicized. Operating systems are also vulnerable to environmental changes that undermine the assumptions used in their design.

...DEVELOPMENT. The second major HRM function, human resource development, refers to performance appraisal and training activities. The basic goal of appraisal is to provide feedback to employees concerning their performance. This feedback allows them to evaluate the appropriateness of their behavior in the eyes of their coworkers and managers, correct weaknesses, and improve their contribution. HRM professionals must devise uniform appraisal standards, develop review techniques, train managers to administer the appraisals, and then evaluate and follow up on the effectiveness of performance reviews. They must also tie the appraisal process into compensation and incentive strategies, and work to ensure that federal regulations are observed. Training and development activities include the determination, design, execution, and analysis of educational programs. Orientation programs, for example, are usually necessary to acclimate new hires to the company. The HRM training and education role may encompass a wide variety of tasks, depending on the type and extent of different programs. In any case, the HRM professional ideally is aware of the fundamentals of learning and motivation, and must carefully design effective training and development programs that benefit the overall organization as well as the individual. Training initiatives may include apprenticeship, internship, job rotation, mentoring, and new skills programs. Human resource management (HRM), or human resource development...
