The corporate compliance department has just created its first issue of the Compliance Code newsletter. Published each quarter, this newsletter will contain helpful tips, hot topics and regulatory and privacy updates. It will help staff better understand some of the issues and challenges facing health care today and help staff think about different ways in which they can promote compliance in their respective areas.
“This newsletter is a compliance team collaboration with input from key stakeholders,” Tonya Okon, executive director of compliance, says. “There is always the burning question of how to do things right, especially around the areas of proper business relationships and how to properly document and bill for the care we provide to our patients, and compliance helps with that by providing information about how certain laws and regulations apply to each aspect of our business. The driving force behind this newsletter is simply to give people the tools they need to incorporate compliance into their daily operations and to do their jobs effectively.”
One print copy will be distributed to each department but additional copies can be downloaded for distribution. To learn more about the Corporate Code newsletter and download your copy from the VIP page, please click here.
