The Minutes of the August 20, 2001 conference call, the September 10, 2001 conference call, and the October 8, 2001 conference call were approved as written.
Michael Rector reviewed the auditing activities for 2000 - 2001, a summary of the budgeting decisions made prior to the October 1999 bid, and the QCS Auditing Proposal scheduled for presentation at the October 30, 2002 CDCB meeting. The Board agreed that the projected income should be removed from the proposal.
Michael also reviewed the current QCS Auditing Policies and Procedures manual, noting that the billing information had been changed to reflect decisions made at the July 2001 meeting.
There was also discussion regarding the Auditing Procedure for the Handling of Complaints section with concerns about the signing of complaints, the agreed upon resolutions, and distribution of associated costs. However, there were no decisions made by the Board to revise the section.
The Board also discussed the Audit Review Committee meeting agenda, the role of the Audit Review Committee, recommendations submitted by Advisory Committees, and wording changes for the CDCB auditing manuals.
The decision was reached that the QCS Board would not reconvene after the CDCB meeting unless the bid proposal was rejected and the meeting was adjourned.
Respectfully
submitted,
Paul Miller
Secretary
