Achieving quality assurance through clinical audit.
Audit is a crucial component of improvements to the quality of patient care. Clinical audits are undertaken to help ensure that patients can be given safe, reliable and dignified care, and to encourage them to self-direct their recovery. Such audits are undertaken also to help reduce lengths of patient stay in hospital, readmission rates and delays in discharge. This article describes the stage...
متن کاملUsing Assurance Models in IT Audit Engagements
The document describes an innovative way to assess the effectiveness of internal IT controls where the control framework is first captured in the models and then the models are used to analyse the evidence gathered from the IT environment. The aim is to lift the risk and control management lifecycle from a series of people based processes to one where model based technology enhances, connects a...
متن کاملAudit Uncertainty , Bayesian Updating , and Tax Evasion
We extend the standard, one-period model of tax evasion to an intertemporal framework in which an expected-utility-maximizing taxpayer updates expectations about the probability of a future audit based on past audit experience. This framework provides a theoretical grounding for the empirical evidence indicating that tax evasion is affected by taxpayers' perceptions of audit probabilities and i...
متن کاملTowards an Intelligent Audit: online reporting, online audit, and other assurance services
This paper examines the evolving scenarios of data processing, networking, financial reporting, assurance services and electronic commerce. Integrating some of these points it advocates a view of atomistic progressive intelligence in systems. This view uses new technologies, and an aggregation of simple and more complex algorithms to provide some form of intelligence. Within this scope it propo...
متن کاملLearning Control Under Extreme Uncertainty
A peg-in-hole insertion task is used as an example to illustrate the utility of direct associative reinforcement learning methods for learning control under real-world conditions of uncertainty and noise. Task complexity due to the use of an unchamfered hole and a clearance of less than 0.2mm is compounded by the presence of positional uncertainty of magnitude exceeding 10 to 50 times the clear...
