"As anyone who's tried to challenge a medical bill or insurance payment can attest, healthcare records are complicated and confusing. The healthcare industry was on the forefront of the 'paperless revolution,' but since there are so many different software programs in use, the challenges for fraud examiners and auditors are enormous. I am pleased that Rebecca has chosen to share her experience and expertise in analyzing these records. This book is essential for anyone dealing with healthcare records."
-John D. Gill, JD, CFE, Research Director, Association of Certified Fraud Examiners

"Auditing and controlling medical records can be a monumental task, but it is critical for healthcare organizations to keep information private and secure. This book is a comprehensive resource that provides clear guidance and good practices regarding the current and future healthcare e-information landscape."
