This quarterly Counter Fraud newsletter has been designed to highlight topical areas of fraud within the NHS and raise awareness of why we need to combat it effectively. By giving interesting case examples, this newsletter will help you to identify what fraud is and offers the correct reporting lines if you suspect fraud is occurring within your organisation.

Working with the Good Governance Institute and Audit Yorkshire (including through workshops earlier this year attended by a large number of Non-Executive Directors), we have produced an Audit Committee Maturity Matrix for Audit Committees to use to assess themselves and monitor their own progress. Click the picture below to see the full report. If you would like a copy of the matrix as an Excel document that you can record your self-assessment on then please contact us.

This report provides the summary outcomes of the Internal Audit work completed across our CCG clients in 2018/19 related to the NHS England Internal Audit Framework for Primary Care Commissioning and Contracting.
