Our clients operate in a heavily regulated industry with a constantly changing regulatory landscape. Compliance and regulatory considerations span an entire organization and lay the framework for:
- ensuring safety and compliance
- measuring quality and performance
- sharing healthcare information and data
- optimizing workforce
- hiring, credentialing and enrolling providers
- tracking facility access and security
Multiple agencies govern compliance within the healthcare realm including DOJ, OIG, FDA, CMS, TJC. Consequences for non-compliance with applicable regulations include substantial financial penalties such as fines, lawsuit settlements, and exclusion from government programs, such as Medicaid and Medicare.
Given the financial and reputational impact of compliance issues, A&M clients benefit from HIG’s compliance experts to assess the range of risk and regulatory exposure and to quantify the ROI of a comprehensive compliance implementation against impact of regulatory fines. Our HIG Compliance and Regulatory service is led by skilled, widely respected former compliance executives and high-ranking government officials with unique, firsthand experience and perspectives. With the capacity to fully assess a healthcare organization’s exposure areas, our team is equipped to provide implementation roadmaps for improvement and reorganize compliance and legal departments to maximize business functions.
