There are the obvious benefits such as our industry-leading audit tools, the support you get from your co-workers, and the rich combination of autonomy and responsibility you enjoy in being the chief audit executive at your facility.

Dan Audit Manager, Arizona
“What most sets CHAN apart from other companies is its willingness to listen to its employees. Some companies have a lot of formal policies in place to help them improve themselves, but if you have your own idea for improving something you have to get past your manager, or your manager’s boss, to be heard. CHAN, on the other hand, will consider ideas from any Associate, regardless of your job level.”

“To me, a company’s culture is a big deal. I have to fit in with the culture, and I like CHAN’s approach of being a partner with the client and being here to add value.”

Lora CHAN Audit Manager, Maine
“It’s the first auditing job I’ve had where I get to see the operations end of the business and know how my work impacts management’s objectives. They’ve really integrated me into their management team so I go to their finance meetings and to their Results Management Initiative meetings to hear about all they’re doing to save money and increase efficiencies.”

Olga CHAN Audit Manager, Wisconsin
“I was with another company and when I returned from maternity leave I wanted to try to work more normal hours with them but the job just wouldn’t allow it. Then I got a call from a former coworker of mine who had since come to CHAN. He said, ‘Don’t you have a daughter? Don’t you want some normal hours?’ So I came to CHAN and my work schedule has certainly been a lot more feasible for someone who has a family.”

“When I came to CHAN I immediately applauded our insistence that audit results be reported to the client’s audit committee. CHAN has a great model with what we require of our clients, especially from a reporting relationship perspective.”

Brent CHAN Audit Manager, Idaho
“Management is receptive at the facility I audit and I truly feel like I’m adding value. It’s helped that I’m able to be active on my client’s Corporate Responsibility Committee. They’ll pick a department and we’ll do a field trip and trace a patient from beginning to end. Through that input we’re able to determine whether controls are functioning as intended. The various departments see me as someone who’s there to help them.”

Mandi CHAN Audit Senior Manager, Indiana
“When I was in public accounting, I served a lot of different clients and had to travel quite a bit. At CHAN, I rarely travel and I have the opportunity to build my knowledge on the same client. There is still variety because I work at such a diverse health system, with facilities of all types and sizes. There is always something new to learn. And it’s nice to be able to compare how my client is now from how they were two years ago.”

Tina CHAN Audit Senior Manager, Alabama
“When I started at CHAN in 2001 I had a lot of auditing experience but not much healthcare experience. But CHAN has so many resources that it gave me a starting point — like the discussion database, reference information, and simply knowing that I could pick up the phone and call another auditor. That’s a huge benefit. All CHAN’s resources allow me to do my homework before starting an audit, so I can enter that first meeting able to talk intelligently about whatever hospital department I’m auditing.”

Kory CHAN Audit Manager, Missouri
“I love the variety of job responsibilities with CHAN. I’m involved in monthly Finance Board, Compliance, Physician Transaction, and other committees, in addition to working with management on a day-to-day basis. I’ve had past jobs where you perform the audit, write the report, and never get to see the end result. With CHAN it is your responsibility to present to the audit/compliance committee and gain that valuable feedback that will assist in future reviews.”

Phil CHAN Audit Manager, Kansas
“My hospitals definitely meet their mission of serving the poor and vulnerable. I strive to help them continue to serve that mission by making sure they meet their bottom-line goals. I see value in that and I like to think I’m making a difference there.”
