4400, Request for an OIG Comparison Review

Revision 24-2; Effective Dec. 2, 2024

PI and OIG investigate for different purposes under different laws, time frames, and standards of evidence. When both PI and the OIG investigate the same incident, they reach independent findings.

Per the Memorandum of Understanding between HHSC state-operated facilities, OIG and PI, an OIG comparison review may be requested by OIG.
