Waiving DHS Audit Requirements

Waiving audit requirements
Case-by-case waivers
DHS may waive audit requirements on a case-by-case basis under certain circumstances, like when the contract amount is small or does not support audit costs and other monitoring options are available. County providers must submit waiver requests to the county before referrals are made to the DHS regional office for approval.
