Sample Testing Grids
The Ohio Department of Health (ODH) and Ohio Department of Mental Retardation and Developmental Disabilities (MRDD) have generously shared with us testing grids used in their annual internal control reviews. We hope that you will find them to be a valuable resource in the creation of your own annual testing documentation.
These grids have been developed to address specific control issues within OHD and MRDD, therefore, you may need to tailor them for your agency. Nonetheless, we hope you find them to be useful examples in developing your own tests. In addition, your agency may have additional control issues that are not addressed through these examples. They are not intended to be comprehensive guidelines for your agency, but rather give you a template from which to work.
