Content

Content

Commonly referred to as: Ethics and Corporate Compliance in Healthcare
​

•The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) referred to as the ACA, enacted on March 23, 2010, mandates that health care entities enrolled in Medicare and Medicaid programs have a “Health Care Compliance and Ethics Plan” in place by March 2013.
 
•Section 6401 of the PPACA, specifies that health care entities must establish a compliance program that contains “effective training and education” as a condition of enrollment in Medicare, Medicaid, or the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP).

The ACA mandates that health care professionals (HCPs) and suppliers implement compliance programs as a condition of participating in federal health care programs (Medicare, Medicaid, Children’s Health Insurance Program). The ACA also set a deadline of March 23, 2013 for skilled nursing facilities and nursing facilities to implement a compliance program.
 
•The ACA requires the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services (HHS) and the Office of the Inspector General (OIG) to establish core elements for mandatory compliance programs.
 
•HHS has not yet issued final regulations for health care compliance programs; however,
•Many medical service providers and suppliers have already established compliance programs even though content varies.

The risks in the health care industry today, including aggressive enforcement of regulations, demand that you adhere to strong ethical business practices and comply with all Federal Medicare mandates.
 
•You must conduct business in compliance with all applicable federal and state laws, rules and regulations. (including:HIPAA, HITECH, Final Omnibus Rule, all fraud and abuse laws)
 
• You must perform services and bill for them in an ethical and legal manner.
 
• You must prevent, detect, correct, and report fraud.
