Understand a law's history to protect yourself in the future
Healthcare Auditing Weekly, May 4, 2004
If an allegation of wrongdoing against your facility pertains to a new or untested area of any law, dig deeper into the history behind the claim to better understand how to defend your organization.
Start looking at proposed and final regulations in the Federal Register. These give significant insights into the position held by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS).
For more information on how to conduct an internal investigation, order the book "See for Yourself: A Guide to Conducting Internal Investigations and Audits." This book will show you how to conduct your own internal investigations and audits from start to finish.
