	The objective of this article is to evaluate the coherence of control and audit activities related

	to quality management in clinical hospitals (in Poland). Research conducted in a selected hospital in Poland has shown the use of a few similar solutions, which may be regarded as a good reason to consider whether the initiation of corrective actions is necessary. The basic conclusion resulting from the conducted analysis concerns the necessity of reviewing the control and audit function with a view to eliminating the needless performance of such control activities, including a possibility of reducing their scope by way of combining

	similar tasks. The collected data give rise to a statement about the necessity of conducting a more thorough check of collected information together with its recording carriers, which will allow the integration of control and audit activities.
