Prioritizing a “Compliance Culture” – You Can Do It All!

Compliance officers in EMS wear many different hats.  Many have both privacy and general compliance officer roles – and at times you may feel like a “one-arm paper hanger!”  We know that you deal with a wide range of compliance issues from potential overpayments in billing to a breach of protected health information.  This session will help you deal with it all.  There are so many compliance “touch points” that - to be effective - a compliance officer must practice compliance “triage” and focus on the top issues that are critical to reduce overall compliance risk.  Learning how to separate “individual” issues from the bigger “system issues” is a critical skill we will cover in this session.  We will help you prioritize the areas that must be addressed in your total compliance program for this coming year.
