Why has LAO adopted post-payment examination?
Legal Aid Ontario is simplifying and streamlining the way we do business with lawyers who do legal aid work. Billing accounts using Legal Aid Online means the system automatically detects many of the errors that were previously detected manually, allowing accounts to be processed faster. The random post-payment examination will perform the necessary number of examinations, to ensure that accounts paid are accurate and valid. In addition, we want to identify the types of errors that are made so that we can provide training and information materials to help you submit accounts quickly and accurately.
