You may be evaluating an organization’s risk exposures because you have just assumed the compliance officer’s position in a new organization or in one where you’ve worked in another position. In either case, gather some basic information to help identify risk exposures from the business and clinical perspectives.
Review current literature targeted to the organization type as well as industry publications. These publications provide excellent summaries of hot topics, both from the hospital industry and from the federal government perspective.
This tip was adapted from The Compliance Officer’s Handbook. For more information about the book or to order your copy, click here.
