audit overall and in regards to major

document request, communications

• Obtain estimates of costs incurred
by covered entities, in time and money,
spent responding to audit-related
requests;
• Seek feedback on the effect of the
HIPAA Audit program on the day-to-day
business operations; and
• Assess whether improvements in
HIPAA compliance were achieved as a
result of the Audit program.
The information, opinions, and
comments collected using the online
survey will be used to produce
recommendations for improving the
HIPAA Audit program.
Likely Respondents: The 115 audit
points-of-contact for each covered entity
audited as part of the 2012 HIPAA
Compliance Audit Program.
