When performing a validated assessment, there are several required items that the Assessed Entity and External Assessor must complete in addition to its scoring and validation of the assessment. These deliverables include the following:
- QA Reservation
- Audits and Assessments Utilized
- Validated Report Agreement
- Automated Quality Checks
- Test Plan
- External Assessor Time Sheet
- QA Checklist
- Management Representation Letter
- CAPs and Gaps
NOTE: A readiness assessment does not require all the above deliverables to be completed. When the Assessed Entity completes the Answering Assessment phase, the readiness assessment may be submitted to HITRUST.
