The 2013 Compliance Trends Survey suggests that compliance officers are making slow but steady progress toward the ideal of a strong, independent compliance function — although in many, but not all, industry sectors (especially the less highly regulated sectors) the size of the “typical” compliance function appears to remain relatively small in both manpower and budget dollars.

How an Organization Can Elevate Compliance Standards360factors
A properly designed and effectively executed compliance program is critical for enhancing and validating company performance and reducing compliance risk. However, the efficacy of a compliance program depends on whether it is a paper program or is integrated within the company and used almost daily.
To elevate compliance standards, organizations can follow the below-mentioned practices:
• Understand the Requirements
• Identify and Assess Compliance Program
• Create Transparency
• Ensure Operational Compliance
• Resolve Problems and Issues

The first webinar of our three-part webinar series exploring the in's and out's of policy management is only a few of weeks away. Etactics and IntraVires Health Compliance Consultants took a look into the initial steps involved with setting a foundational "policy on policies".
In this presentation, our approach to patient volume modeling is reviewed. This model is used for marketing and operations strategic decision making.
As hospitals and healthcare systems are trying to increase commercial revenue (non-government funded) to sustainable profitability, many are unable to address this problem strategically due to data dispersion and the analytical model required to establish cause and effect relationships. Endeavor Analytics’ digital tool assembles, models and predicts the impact of market changes, marketing and operational activities on all-payer patient volumes.

Mastering the Dynamics of Change
Every day, the senior executives and board members of more than
4,000 healthcare organizations turn to PricewaterhouseCoopers for
support in enhancing performance, building financial strength and
protecting their reputations.
PricewaterhouseCoopers healthcare practice draws on the
experience of an international organization that includes clinical
and business leaders—and more physicians than any other Big
Five firm. Because we’re committed to healthcare, we continually
invest in our people and knowledge. In addition to physicians, our
healthcare practice includes nurses, information system specialists,
management consultants, health policy analysts, actuaries,
financial advisors and data analysts, who provide our clients with
unmatched industry expertise.
Our Healthcare Regulatory Group is the world’s largest regulatory
practice serving integrated delivery systems, hospitals, physician
practices, managed care organizations, ambulatory care sites,
home health agencies and long-term care providers. Around the
world, more than 2,000 professionals in the group work together
to deliver six integrated lines of service that are critical to a
healthcare organization’s success.
Across the spectrum of healthcare delivery, we help organizations
improve performance, preserve revenues, reduce costs, address
compliance issues and create collaborative business approaches
that build competitive advantage.
We offer unparalleled thought leadership through such programs
as the annual Thought Leadership Forum, held in conjunction
with the Harvard School of Public Health faculty, an endowed
directorship for continuing professional education at Harvard, and
frequent publications on emerging industry issues. We also
publish HealthCast 2010: Smaller World, Bigger Expectations, a
prospective view of healthcare in the next decade.

relationships that bring real-life value to our engagements. We

Unmatched Expertise in a Complex
Regulatory Environment
Healthcare providers and payors are facing intensifying scrutiny
by federal and state governments for possible fraud and abuse
violations. Regulatory and accreditation bodies have also
tightened operational requirements. This scrutiny has lead to the
realization that an integrated, comprehensive compliance program
is no longer a luxury.
At PricewaterhouseCoopers, we specialize in the healthcare
industry and we understand the complex regulatory issues that you
face daily. That’s why we incorporate those issues into our
consulting and operational improvement services. During a
corporate compliance engagement, we provide a dedicated group
of healthcare regulatory professionals with in-depth skill sets that
will put their expertise to work for you. They can tell you where
and how to assess your risks at the operational level. Our
specialists will also show you how to structure your compliance
program to monitor, audit and mitigate those risks. Additional
services include employee training and education, daily advice and
council with our Compliance Office™ management tool, as well
as fraud and abuse investigative services by specific segments.
Our experienced, multidisciplinary teams can provide a more
thorough situation analysis in a shorter period than you could
possibly achieve alone. And a quick response can significantly
reduce your exposure if a non-compliance issue should surface.
We have spent years building and nurturing working relationships
with all relevant regulatory and accreditation agencies. This
means that the reputation and the integrity of our services can
bring a stabilizing influence to any investigative process as well as
enhance your organization’s credibility.
4. 4
The Benefits of Compliance
We believe there are two phases to the development and
implementation of a compliance program: developing the overall
program structure and operationalizing the program.
Many organizations have been developing their overall
compliance program structure, including creating the compliance
office. Resources exist in the industry including the Office of the
Inspector General’s (OIG) model compliance program, to provide
guidance on the program structure.
The more difficult and challenging aspect of developing and
implementing a compliance program comes when an organization
tries to operationalize the program. We believe that an
organization will only be able to demonstrate their compliance
program is effective when the program has been integrated into
the day-to-day operations of every department.
We believe an effective program creates an environment that
reinforces your commitment to compliance while providing a
framework to identify and correct potential issues of non-
compliance.
We also believe that the compliance program should not impede
or replace the organizational processes currently in place, but
rather, complement and enhance them in order to create a more
effective and efficient operation.
Our experience is that effective compliance programs deliver real
benefits to any organization, including:
Development of an integrated framework to manage
compliance with laws and regulations
Increased understanding of the operating risks applicable to
the organization
Strengthened operational consistency and coordination
between departments
Improved efficiency of response to government
investigations and inquiries that often arise without notice
Enhanced organizational control of the overall operations.
5. 5
Fraud and Abuse Investigative Services: Our consultants
have extensive experience assisting clients and their counsel
during federal and state investigations or through Qui Tam
actions. Our consultants’ investigative skills are combined
with financial and economic acumen to support counsel in
pre-litigation, arbitration and mediation, accurate intelligence
and admissible evidence.
At PricewaterhouseCoopers, we have drawn on our vast
global resources to provide successful customized corporate
compliance solutions for numerous healthcare entities over a
number of years. And we stand ready to provide the same
services for your organization.
Corporate Compliance Solutions
PricewaterhouseCoopers offers comprehensive, customized
solutions to your corporate compliance challenges. They can
work together or stand alone.
Payor Compliance Expertise: We understand that payors have
their own compliance regulations, issues and concerns. Only
PricewaterhouseCoopers can offer an in-depth evaluation of these
issues within any payor organization including third-party
administrators. Our highly qualified specialists average 10 to 15
years of experience in their respective operational areas.
Provider Compliance Expertise: Provider’s compliance
regulations, issues and concerns are no less unique. Only
PricewaterhouseCoopers can offer a comprehensive evaluation of
compliance issues and all aspects of any provider organization.
We have experienced consultants with 10 to 15 years of
experience in managing all areas of provider operations.
Compliance Office™: PricewaterhouseCoopers is proud to
offer this innovative, proprietary management system. This ever-
evolving software enhances risk management activities by directly
linking business risks to specific control procedures, oversight
responsibilities and performance monitoring. We believe there is
no other healthcare compliance tool on the market that is as
comprehensive, functional and flexible.
6. 6
Compliance Services
Our flexible approach is what sets up apart from firms that treat
compliance issues with a rigid “one size fits all” approach. We
believe in building compliance directly into your existing
processes and systems.
PricewaterhouseCoopers professionals can provide assistance in
one or many aspects of your compliance program development
and implementation:
Policies and Procedures: While organizations have some
policies and procedures in place to mitigate compliance risks, our
experience is that most organizations do not have all the necessary
processes in place. We can review your existing polices and
procedures to identify additional processes necessary to mitigate
compliance risks in your organization. We can provide assistance
in developing and implementing the additional policies and
procedures.
Training and Education: Training may be needed to increase
the knowledge of your managers, employees and medical staff of
compliance related risks for your organization. We have
conducted training sessions at all levels within healthcare
organizations, including “train the trainer” sessions.
PricewaterhouseCoopers can conduct training and education
sessions or provide materials for your team to use in conducting
training and education sessions.
7. 7
Monitoring: Controls are needed to ensure your
organization continues to comply with applicable laws and
regulations and identify issues of non-compliance
immediately for resolution. We can provide assistance in
identifying existing monitoring activities and build new
monitoring controls to address any “gaps” identified.
Auditing: As organizations implement their compliance
program, we have seen Boards ask whether the program is
operating effectively. PricewaterhouseCoopers can help you
address this question through an independent evaluation of
your program. We can also perform audit services to
independently evaluate your billing and coding practices or
provide additional resources to supplement your audit
resources.
Fraud and Abuse Prevention Services: Even though you
may be doing “the right thing,” you may be subjected to an
investigation by a federal agency. PricewaterhouseCoopers
can provide you with one of the strongest and most
experienced crisis response teams.
We have helped many of our clients and their attorneys
successfully defend themselves in a government investigation.
Additionally, we can provide assistance to your organization
if you have identified a compliance issue internally and you
are considering self disclosure.
