Program Abstract:
A voluntary compliance plan is essential for any practice that is going to bill third party insurance. It states that you as an entity intend to follow “the rules”, educate your employees on “the rules”, provide tools and information needed to follow “the rules” and that you have processes in place to ensure “the rules” are followed. Find out how your compliance plan can save your practice thousands of dollars in the event of an audit with a poor outcome.
