A New Year brings new resolutions.  Maybe one of the items that should be on your 2016 to-do list is updating your ambulance service's compliance plan.  Regulatory compliance continues to be a big deal, and is getting more important.  Create, review or update your compliance plan to reduce your risk and protect your company.

This webcast was recorded on Tuesday, January 12, 2016.

Our guest was attorney Wendy Arends at Godfrey & Kahn in Madison.  We discussed the importance of an ambulance service compliance plan and the elements to include.  Reference is made during the conversation to the U.S. Department of Health Office of the Inspector General, who posted ambulance service compliance plan recommendations at: http://oig.hhs.gov/fraud/docs/complianceguidance/032403ambulancecpgfr.pdf
