Corporate Compliance Series (Part II) - Putting Compliance into Action
Format: Audio conference (Available online)

Program Summary:
New York State providers who are subject to the provisions of NYS Public Health Law articles 28 or 36 (hospitals, nursing homes, clinics, home care agencies, etc.) are required to adopt and implement effective compliance programs and to annually certify that they are effective. If Medicaid is a substantial portion of the organization’s business operations, the certification should be based upon the existence of a compliance program that meets the eight elements set out in NYS law.
