An effective compliance program should encompass all areas of regulation that are applicable to your practice. Many practices address billing and reimbursement and HIPAA compliance, but compliance programs also should cover employment, Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) requirements, Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1998 (CLIA) regulations, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act requirements, and other healthcare regulatory areas, including self-referral/stark law and anti-kickback regulations. Every practice is unique, and so should be every compliance program.
