Health Care Compliance Alerts

Staying Ahead of the Curve

Health care providers, large and small, have been impacted by the sea-change in the delivery of health care in the United States, and particularly in New York, that has occurred over the last several years. 

The importance of having an effective and thorough internal compliance and audit program – and the ramifications of failing to do so - have never been greater. 

From exposure under the federal False Claims Act, to the ever increasing financial penalties and fines for failing to comply with federal and state regulations and guidance, doctors, hospitals, nursing homes and other health care providers face great legal and financial risks if they fail to establish and implement active and aggressive compliance programs. 

Government agencies and enforcers too numerous to name have targeted the health care industry for increasing scrutiny in the upcoming year.  In light of these pressures, Hancock Estabrook strives to provide its clients with timely alerts on breaking news and recent compliance-related activities, in order to assist in proactively addressing these issues.
