Which is the better choice?
Should you hire someone and use an internal auditor to do your review or should you hire an outside reviewer? The choice is up to each practice to decide what your needs are and what type of staff you have available who are skilled enough to do this type of work. It also may depend on the purpose and scope of the review. This video reviews several things that you need to consider before choosing an internal or external reviewer
