Mission Statement
The Department of Assurance Services is a service unit established
to assist the Virginia Commonwealth University Board of Visitors,
the VCU Health System Authority Board of Directors, and senior
management in providing the best education and healthcare
to students, patients and the community. The Department of
Assurance Services provides this assistance through:
- Independent reviews of financial, operational, and information
systems to evaluate whether resources are utilized in accordance
with institutional mission, goals, and strategies;
- Special projects in partnership with management to develop systems
and processes that are effective and efficient; and
- Education and training for employees regarding the need for
and characteristics of appropriate systems control.
The underlying
premise of our work is that the University and Health System Authority,
as leaders in the dynamic environments of higher education and
healthcare, must function at the highest levels. The Department
of Assurance Services must support those responsibilities with
proactive and innovative services provided in an objective manner.
