This service is designed to allow practice owners concerned about embezzlement to determine whether those concerns are justified. Our Diagnostic Examination involves a complete and stealthy review of the transactions in your practice management software and elsewhere to determine whether your suspicions are valid.
This form of investigation is employed when embezzlement has already been discovered. The forensic investigation involves gathering information and evidence to assist with swift and legal employee termination, recovery of stolen funds and proper entry into the justice system.
