Tailoring Your Compliance Program for Your Business Size

In November of 2023, the Health and Human Services Office of the Inspector General (OIG) released an important guidance document called the General Compliance Program Guidance (GCPG).  They have announced they will be publishing industry segment-specific guidance documents (ICPGs) as well. Though these documents are welcomed by the compliance community, they are not, in and of themselves, a checklist or model compliance program.  

The OIG has stated these guidance documents, “…do not constitute a model compliance program. The GCPG and ICPGs are for use as a resource by the health care community; they are not intended to be one-size-fits-all, completely comprehensive, or all-inclusive of compliance considerations and fraud and abuse risks for every organization.” 

OIG dedicated a large section of the GCPG to “Compliance Program Adaptations for Small and Large Entities” and explained, “Compliance programs may be structured differently depending on the entity’s size. Small entities and large organizations should think about how to right-size their compliance program to meet their entity’s needs.”  

In this webinar we will discuss: 

• The concept of one-size-does-not-fit-all and what that means for all compliance programs. 
• Key considerations for small entities as they adapt their program to their size 
• Key considerations for large entities as they adapt their program to their size
