New integrity governance framework

The VHA and the Australian Centre for Healthcare Governance have released a new framework to support healthcare providers to establish governance frameworks and mitigate risk.

• Integrity Governance Framework
• Integrity Governance Framework Action Plan
• Integrity Governance Framework and Assessment Tool
• Integrity Governance Framework Better Practice Tool

This framework draws on contemporary risk management and integrity practice and adapts these principles to the health service environment. It uses the three lines of defence model as a systematic and practical approach for addressing fraud and corruption vulnerabilities at frontline staff, management and Board levels.
