Part VI: Providing Quality Care Through an Appropriate Clinical Staffing Model

Join us for Part VI of the De-Mystifying the Compliance Manual webinar series which focuses on:

  • Chapter 5: Clinical Staffing
  • Chapter 10: Quality Improvement/ Assurance

Series Description

In the past few years, HRSA has transitioned its compliance efforts from requiring FQHCS to utilize multiple guidance documents to ensure adherence to health center program requirements to issuing the Health Center Program Compliance Manual (the Manual), a consolidated resource to assist FQHCs in understanding, demonstrating, and operationalizing compliance.

The Manual, which supersedes most (but not all) prior guidance, incorporates a new approach to everyday compliance by addressing:

  • Each requirement’s statutory and regulatory basis
  • Key elements of compliance that form the framework of every health center’s project
  • Documentation necessary for verification of compliance
  • Areas where health centers maintain discretion

To assist in conducting a “hands-on” compliance evaluation, HRSA issued a Site Visit Protocol (the SVP), which aligns with the Manual and reflects a more objective assessment tool. A new SVP was just issued in April 2019, which includes additional clarification on documentation requirements and assessment methodologies. Together, the Manual and the SVP are the main tools used by HRSA for both on-site reviews of grantees and FQHC look-alike entities (Operational Site Visits - OSVs) and “desk audits” of project and designation renewal applications.

Is your health center prepared for the recent changes to compliance with HRSA requirements and the compliance assessment processes – both on-site and through the application? Given the possible consequences of non-compliance, including 1-year project periods for non-compliance with a single element and potential loss of 330-grant funds, it is critical that every health center be and remain vigilant whether you are expecting an OSV, submitting your SAC / RD application, or looking to bolster current operations as part of ongoing compliance efforts.

  • Health Center Executive Staff
  • Clinical Leadership
  • Quality and Credentialing/Privileging Staff
  • Financial Leadership and Staff

  • Identify specific documentation and updated assessment methodologies necessary to demonstrate compliance, and explore areas where health centers retain discretion.

Certificates of Attendance: We verify attendance upon completion of a webinar (live or recorded version) and will only issue certificates in the name of the account holder enrolled in the course. If you need to document attendance for someone other than the account holder, we provide blank Certificates of Attendance for a supervisor to sign and certify that a different individual viewed the course. 

Group Attendance: Due to the online nature of webinars, we cannot verify participation by more than one person. For groups, we provide an attendance record form and blank Certificates of Attendance to record attendance at a group viewing session and document each individual's participation. We recommend that a supervisor or colleague sign the certificate to certify attendance.
