Healthcare laws are rapidly changing, and there have been significant developments in recent years.  We stay updated on healthcare compliance so you can focus on your practice. 

Take a look at some of our healthcare and HIPAA compliance services.

• HIPAA compliance
• Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement policies
• Joint Commission accreditation
• Credentialing
• Health and insurance law updates
• EMR compliance

Even old rules require your vigilance.

Sometimes, when a rule has been on the books for years, it’s easy to forget about it in the chaos of everyday life in your clinic.  But provider practice acts and Medicare/Medicaid rules aren’t fuzzy guidelines.  If you’re fuzzy on their requirements, it’s time for us to perform a “legal audit” of your practice and refresh your policies.

• Know the rules for supervising students in your clinic.
• Know the boundaries of your practice act.  Ask us to draft your employee policies and procedures with a sensitivity to all persons’ scope of practice (nurses, physical therapists, student providers, etc.).
• Know when you need a referral or prescription to offer the services being requested by a patient.
• Know your professional fee-sharing privileges and prohibitions.

Be ready to recognize potential healthcare compliance issues.

• Understand your obligations under the ACA to prescribe or refer a patient for contraceptive care.
• Understand your obligations as an HIV-positive healthcare provider.
• Locate suitable professional liability insurance.
• Know how to comply with a patient’s advanced directive or living will.
