Clearpol's Summary of this Guidance
Nursing homes and other healthcare facilities must develop, implement, and maintain an effective compliance and ethics program that meets the requirements of the Social Security Act. This program must include written standards, policies, and procedures to prevent and detect criminal, civil, and administrative violations under the Act, as well as promote quality of care. High-level personnel must be assigned to oversee the program, and the facility must take steps to communicate the standards, policies, and procedures to its staff, individuals providing services under a contractual arrangement, and volunteers. The facility must also take reasonable steps to detect and respond to violations, and review the program annually. Operating organizations with five or more facilities must also include mandatory annual training, a designated compliance officer, and compliance liaisons located at each facility. These new requirements will help nursing homes and other healthcare facilities ensure compliance with the Social Security Act and promote quality of care.
