Management audits.
How can a medical group practice be sure it is working toward its objectives and utilizing its resources to its best advantage? A management audit, when properly conducted and reported, appraises a group's general state of health and effectiveness by examining its activities of planning, organizing, supervision, control systems, information flow, cost controls, and productivity. By detecting potentially destructive problems and opportunities for improvement, a management evaluation system will help medical group administrators operate effectively in a time of rapidly changing conditions.
