With the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 and the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 (2010 Health Care Reform), however, Congress mandated that providers, suppliers, and physicians adopt a compliance program. Even without the 2010 Health Care Reform’s requirements, having an effective compliance program is just smart business. As a leader of your organization, you, along with others, should ensure that processes are in place to guide and support proper conduct. A compliance program doesn’t automatically guarantee that all fraud or abuse will be eliminated, but an effective program will establish an environment that promotes prevention, detection, and resolution of misconduct, thereby reducing your risk for both.
