The Office of Inspector General (OIG) has issued updated compliance program guidance. The release is part of the OIG’s two-step approach to modernize its current compliance program guidance.
In a new blog post, Thompson Coburn’s Health Care Group provides details of the new compliance document, which applies generally to all individuals and entities involved in the health care industry and is designed as a user-friendly reference guide.
It is important to note that this new guidance is not intended to be a model compliance program nor is it binding on any individual or entity. Instead, the OIG’s intent for publishing the guidance is to provide participants in the health care industry with a voluntary set of guidelines and identified risk areas that the OIG believes individuals and entities in the health care industry should consider when developing and implementing a new compliance program or evaluating an existing one.
