ForwardRisk Assessments - Best Practices for Health Centers
Access the on-demand webinar here
What is your health center’s biggest compliance risk – cybersecurity, managing grant funds, credentialing providers with payors, ensuring FTCA coverage for malpractice claims, screening employees against exclusion lists or something else?
How do you know that is your health center’s biggest compliance risk? A formal compliance risk assessment helps your health center to identify, assess and prioritize potential compliance risks. It is the foundation of your compliance program - guiding the allocation of resources (time, money and effort) and serving as the basis for the activities in your compliance work plan (auditing/monitoring, developing policies and procedures, training and education).
According to the Office of the Inspector General (OIG)’s General Compliance Program Guidance (GCPG), a formal compliance risk assessment should:
- Be conducted at least annually
- Be conducted and implemented by the Staff Compliance Committee
- Incorporate information about risks from a variety of external and internal sources
- Use data analytics
- Be used to assess new risks identified between the annual risk assessment
- Include a periodic assessment of the Compliance Program’s effectiveness that is reported to the Board of Directors
This session will explore various risk assessment strategies and approaches to collect and analyze information about your health center’s compliance risks. It is geared towards those professionals who are looking to enhance their compliance programs with robust risk assessment processes by aligning with the latest standards and regulatory expectations. Whether you are establishing a new compliance risk assessment process or optimizing an existing one, this webinar will equip you with the knowledge and resources to succeed.
