So Regardless of what organization you belong to, the organization doesn’t exist for a compliance program, the compliance program is there to help the business. So, it’s really important to know what business you’re in. For example; if you are a compliance officer for a hospital versus a DME company or a medical device company or a pharmaceutical company. Knowing what that businesses vision and mission is, is critical for you as a compliance officer, because most compliance departments, at least everyone I know, is a cost center. You don’t bring in any revenue. So, knowing where the organization receives its revenue, how the organization thrives as a business is a real asset as a compliance officer, so you’re seen as a member of the team that is trying to achieve an overall mission, and you’re not just seen as an obstacle to get in the way.
