What Healthcare Providers Can Learn from Recent OIG Audits

The Office of Inspector General (OIG) continues to shine a spotlight on healthcare compliance risks—and their audit reports offer more than just findings. They offer a roadmap. 

In our latest on-demand webinar, we explore how hospitals and healthcare professionals can use recent OIG audit results to improve their own compliance strategies. 

For hospitals, the audits have focused on timely and relevant concerns like price transparency, mechanical ventilation billing, and outpatient services for hospice patients. The findings point to common missteps in documentation, coding, and billing processes. 

Professional service providers haven’t escaped scrutiny either. The OIG has closely examined autism therapy services, psychotherapy billing, and the use of modifier -25. These audits reveal persistent vulnerabilities and underscore the need for stronger documentation standards and consistent audit procedures. 

Perhaps most importantly, the webinar unpacks the audit techniques the OIG uses—such as data mining, stratified sampling, and claim-level reviews. Understanding these methods can help internal auditors adopt more effective, risk-based approaches to compliance monitoring.
