In healthcare, audit risk refers to the potential for errors or misrepresentation in financial records or operational processes that could lead to negative consequences during an audit. For healthcare providers, this often involves the risk of incorrect medical coding, compliance issues, or billing inaccuracies that could result in penalties, repayment demands, or legal action. Mitigating audit risk is crucial for financial stability and regulatory adherence.
