AI Contract Overview
The California Department of Consumer Affairs is seeking qualified external auditors to conduct an independent review of Premier Health Group, LLC’s monitoring services for licensees in recovery from substance abuse through the Healing Arts Boards. This audit is mandated by Senate Bill 1441 and must comply with the Uniform Standards Regarding Substance Abusing Licensees, specifically Standard 15, which requires an independent audit at least once every three years by a party with no real or apparent conflict of interest, not affiliated with the Department or the vendor. The auditor must be proficient in internal auditing and assessment procedures and must evaluate Premier’s adherence to all 16 Uniform Standards, focusing on program compliance, contract fulfillment, and the effectiveness of licensee monitoring. The audit will assess operational strengths and weaknesses, identify areas for improvement, and ensure public safety remains the top priority in the recovery programs administered by the eight Healing Arts Boards under the Department’s oversight. The selected auditor will collaborate closely with the Department of Consumer Affairs, its Internal Audit Office, and the individual Healing Arts Boards to conduct a comprehensive evaluation of Premier’s activities. The scope includes reviewing how Premier implements monitoring protocols, tracks licensee progress, ensures regulatory compliance, and upholds the integrity of the recovery programs. The audit must be performed by an independent third party entirely separate from the Department and Premier, with no prior contractual, financial, or operational ties to either entity. The solicitation, RFP IAO-26-01, has a response deadline of September 1, 2026, and is issued under California’s procurement system with Jennifer Martineau as the primary point of contact. The audit outcome will serve to validate the effectiveness and accountability of the vendor-managed recovery initiatives and reinforce compliance with state law governing the treatment and monitoring of substance-abusing licensees.
