Whistleblower Claims in Healthcare
September 25, 2008: Whistleblower Claims in Healthcare: Part I: The Compliance Perspective
This webinar offered an opportunity to listen and participate in a panel discussion about Whistleblowers and the False Claims Act (FCA) investigations and litigation - and how Compliance Officers and outside counsel can best communicate with management teams, compliance committees, and Board of Directors to protect the organization, maintain appropriate confidentiality, and work successfully to revise the risk of exposure to FCA controversies. Joined by representatives from outside counsel, compliance officers from both a community hospital and a healthcare system, and a healthcare consultant specializing in defense of FCA proceedings, special investigations, voluntary disclosures, and corporate integrity agreements, this webinar allowed participants to gain valuable information and insight about educating employees about FCA, key elements of an effective compliance strategy to avoid aggravating the risk of FCA attacks, the importance of compliance assessments and how to respond to internal disclosures and/or whistleblower complaints.
October 8, 2008: Whistleblower Claims in Healthcare: Part II: The Enforcement Perspective
This webinar continued the panel discussion and offered various enforcement perspectives of the current environment for whistleblower and false claims investigations and enforcement involving health care organizations.
Participants held discussions about common problems contributing to whistleblower claims and the better practices for avoiding these controversies. An Assistant United States Attorney and health care fraud coordinator with the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Chicago interacted and engaged with outside counsel, a compliance officer and a healthcare consultant about current enforcement trends, how to prepare and respond to enforcement issues, what we should expect going forward in light of the Deficit Reduction Act, and other healthcare enforcement initiatives.
