Healthcare Training 2019 - Conducting YOUR "NEW 2019" Annual ACH Rules Compliance Audit- a Step-by-Step Guide

Overview
The NACHA Operating Rules and Guidelines require that all participating depository financial institutions, third-party senders and third-party service providers that provide ACH services conduct an annual ACH audit to be performed by December 31 of each year (ACH Rules, Article 1).
With the requirement that each participant conducts an annual ACH audit, this helps to ensure that electronic payments work safely and efficiently for all users.
Why should you Attend
Due to a recently approved amendment to the NACHA Operating Rules, Appendix 8 has been removed from the Rules (Appendix 8 was the "guide" or checklist while completing the annual ACH Audit).
With this change, this session will outline what this Rules change means to your process when conducting your ACH Audit and offer tips and guidance for creating your own personalized ACH Audit (based on what ACH activities you utilize).
