The continued development of the health sector makes increasingly evident the need for evaluation of processes and continuous improvement activities, always looking for quality in health care to reduce the risks of users and caregivers. The audit as evaluation process allows gathering information on issues of compliance rules to enable and/or reaching national health accreditation, but the instruments to implement it turn out to be inefficient. Therefore it is necessary to have an audit tool to assess compliance, and deliver results according to these, establishing improvement plans, ultimately leading to obtaining a more efficient process. In this paper, the development of a prototype audit tool that is based on the existing rules of licensing and accreditation is introduced, which through the development of a template in Excel allows qualifying technology standards management, delivering specific and general graphics which help to gather information in less time which will help to adopt improvement plans.
