Healthcare organizations and providers are required to meet numerous legal, ethical, and professional standards as services are provided to patients. Healthcare compliance encompasses many areas including patient care, reimbursement, billing, managed care, OSHA, and HIPAA privacy and security. In addition, each healthcare organization has compliance requirements related to labor practices and employee safety that are like non-healthcare businesses. The purpose of the compliance program is to encourage organizational adherence to the applicable federal, state, and private payer healthcare requirements.
