1 DATE: November 2, 2017 TO: FROM: SUBJECT: Audit and Compliance Committee Members Rick Kibler, VP, Compliance and Internal Audit Revisions to Audit and Compliance Committee Charter Background: Compliance Resource Group (CRG) performed an independent assessment of the Compliance Program as currently implemented. CRG assessed program documents and conducted on-site interviews during March and April 2017 and documented the results of their assessment in a report dated 5/12/17. There were 3 separate recommendations relating to improving the Audit and Compliance Committee Charter as follows: Governance Structure: The CCO should have unmediated access to the CEO and the Board of Trustees and the Board Audit and Compliance Committee. This is a requirement of virtually every government document detailing the components of an effective Compliance Program. The CCO s job description details responsibilities of the position, but there should be a Board adopted charter with specific responsibilities and authorities for the CCO. The advantage of a charter, versus a job description, is that it can only be modified by Board action, which in turn demonstrates that the CCO acts on authority of the Board. Governance Structure: There is no indication that the Board has a role in the hiring, evaluation and termination of the CCO, and such a role is not specified in the documents we reviewed. We recommend that the Board play a defined role in these matters, particularly in the termination of the CCO. This role should be memorialized in a Board adopted charter for either the Board itself or the Board Audit and Compliance Committee. Compliance Officer: Many organizations supplement the CCO job description with a charter of authorities and responsibilities approved by the Board. This charter has the multiple purposes of documenting that the Board has delegated day-to-day management of the Compliance Program to the CCO, which is protective of the Board, with the added benefit of making it clear to the organization that the authorities and responsibilities of the CCO position are derivative of the
2 Alameda Health System Board of Trustees Audit and Compliance Committee Members Audit and Compliance Committee Draft Charter November 2, Board. Unlike a job description, a charter can be changed only by Board action. We urge consideration of such a charter with respect to the CCO. Action Taken: Attached is a draft charter for the committee to consider in addressing the CRG recommendations. The charter is shown in edit mode to highlight modifications from the previously approved charter. This edited version is presented to stimulate conversation and identify areas for revision. The final version will be presented at the next meeting for approval East 31 st Street Oakland, CA (510)
