Internal Audit

Internal Audit is an independent, objective assurance, appraisal activity within the Medical University of South Carolina (the University), the Medical University Hospital Authority (the Authority), and their affiliated organizations and related parties for the review of operations for the Board of Trustees and as a service to management. 

It helps the organization accomplish its objectives by bringing a systematic, disciplined approach to evaluate, and improve the effectiveness of risk management, control and governance processes. Internal Audit reviews the reliability and integrity of information, compliance with policies and regulations, the safeguarding of assets, the economical and efficient use of resources, and established operational goals and objectives. It encompass financial activities and operations.

Our goal is to assist the Board of Trustees, the institution and management in assessing and improving MUSC programs, services, and operations by conducting routine, special request, compliance, and investigative reviews and projects.
