- FTCA coverage for volunteers
- Determining if you need gap insurance
- How to know if your program is in compliance with FTCA expectations
Learning Objectives
After this training participants will be able to:
- Describe the Deeming and Redeeming Application process and how the processes have changed to align with the Health Center Compliance Manual
- Understand what triggers a FTCA Site Visit and common issues that arise for health centers when these programs are audited
- Identify the Principles of FTCA coverage, including the newly established coverage for volunteers, and discuss common pitfalls and potential liabilities and risks for your health center
- Review best practices in the FTCA claims process and discuss those actions that could jeopardize coverage for your health center
