Creating an OIG and DOJ compliance plan is like making a rulebook for a company to follow. It helps everyone understand the necessary laws and ethical guidelines set by the Office of the Inspector General (OIG) and the Department of Justice (DOJ). It's about running the company legally and responsibly.
On November 6, 2023, the OIG released its New General Compliance Program Guidance (GCPG). The GCPG is intended to serve as a voluntary reference guide for the healthcare compliance community and other healthcare stakeholders discussing general compliance risks and compliance programs. The GCPG addresses applicable federal healthcare laws, the "seven elements" of a compliance program, adaptions for small and large entities, and other compliance considerations. This is off the heels of the DOJ's updated guidance issued in March 2023 regarding the DOJ's Evaluation of Corporate Compliance Programs. Further, the OIG announced its intent to publish industry-specific Compliance Program Guidance.
OIG and DOJ are essential for framing an effective compliance plan for 2024. The webinar will help attendees grasp the vital rules and ethical standards required for running a business smoothly and ethically. Attendees will learn how to create effective compliance plans, stay updated on changing regulations, and learn practical strategies to prevent and handle issues if they arise. Ultimately, it gives me the knowledge to contribute to a fair, transparent, and legally sound working environment.
