Upon verification of compliance, which steps should IPP take?

• A. Complete the NR and the PHIS task
• B. Rescind the NR and close the PHIS task
• C. Finalize NR and complete PHIS task
• D. Complete the NR and open the PHIS task

Answer: (A)

When verification of compliance is complete, the appropriate action is to wrap things up in the system by completing the Nonconformance Report and completing the PHIS task. This shows the issue has been resolved and the tracking records reflect closure. Completing the NR communicates official closure of the nonconformance, and completing the PHIS task ensures the related workflow is finalized in the health information system, preserving accurate audit trails. Rescinding the NR would imply the issue isn’t resolved, while opening or leaving the PHIS task open would leave work in progress that has already been verified as complete.
