The Audit Dashboard is a centralized, AI-powered compliance and documentation quality system designed to support Medicare audits and broader payer requirements across specialties. It supports both pre-submission and post-submission audits, so your team can catch issues before notes are signed and continuously monitor quality after submission.
This feature is enabled in OPS with the scribe_audit feature flag and is included for all AIR users.

Overview

The Audit Dashboard is built to:
  • Standardize compliance across providers and locations
  • Support audit readiness for Medicare and commercial payers
  • Provide objective, consistent scoring of documentation
  • Enable continuous improvement through actionable feedback
As additional specialties are supported, the system expands with auditor-designed templates tailored to each specialty’s compliance requirements. Audit Dashboard overview

Why Use the Audit Dashboard?

Documentation is directly tied to:
  • Revenue
  • Compliance
  • Audit defensibility
  • Operational performance
Without a standardized system, organizations often rely on manual audits, subjective feedback, and inconsistent enforcement of requirements. The Audit Dashboard addresses this with consistent, AI-driven evaluation across all notes, helping documentation reflect care accurately and meet required standards at scale.

Why custom questions matter

Custom questions help organizations:
  • Enforce internal documentation standards
  • Meet contractual or payer-specific requirements
  • Align documentation with clinical workflows
  • Support strategic initiatives and quality programs
Each question is weighted by importance and directly impacts scoring and compliance. Must Pass rules act as hard stops to ensure critical documentation elements are not missed.

Provider-level review

You can break down performance by provider and review:

Note-level review

Each audit can be reviewed at the note level, including:
  • Full documentation
  • Audit score and grade
  • Strengths
  • Areas for improvement
