310.2 - Level of Audit Effort - (Rev. 1, 08-30-02)
A1-1271.2
Instructions require that the level of audit effort be determined by the results of the desk
review or professional survey process, taking into account the priority, audit cost-to-audit
savings ratio, and the level of budget resources available. In most situations, audits are
limited. However, compliance with the Government Auditing Standards must be
considered in all provider audits.
