The panel will address these and other relevant aspects:

  • Establishing roles and responsibilities: Assigning the correct staff to tasks that affect file documents and clearly defining the relevant activities of outside consultants and external auditors.
  • Organizing principles: Effectively using state-by-state and issue-by-issue sub-files and keeping separate compliance and controversy files for potentially unprotected material. Maintaining a rigorous log-out process for information given to third parties.
  • Working with the external auditor: Developing separate plans for work product protection and for access to sensitive information.
  • Anticipating the government audit: Setting up the audit file for an expeditious and favorable audit.
