Lets say your health care organization has had several small compliance incidents in the past 2 years, and the organization is now motivated to update its compliance program. Your leadership team has asked you to review 2 healthcare compliance programs from similar organizations to determine how they constructed their compliance program and what aspects your organization should adopt.
Select the type of health care organization you want represented(Family practice, hospital, urgent care, or nursing home).
Find 2 compliance program documents from comparable health care organizations, using your Internet search engine and examine the similarities and differences between the 2.
Share ways that compares how both organizations execute the following compliance components:
How internal monitoring and auditing is conducted
How compliance and practice standards are implemented
The designated compliance officer or person who that person reports to, and their relationship to the organization’s governing board
How employees are trained and educated to model compliant behaviors
How violations or offenses are detected, reported, and corrected
How lines of communication with employees are developed
How disciplinary standards are enforced
Provide a summary that informs your executive leadership about the matrix you’ve created and offer an opinion as to which best practices the organization should adopt for its own compliance.
