Some may take the position that the rest of the country already returned to a new “normal” following the COVID-19 pandemic. But healthcare providers continue to have to navigate complicated compliance requirements at both the federal and state levels. It is important for healthcare providers to understand how the compliance landscape has changed in 2023 with the ending of the Public Health Emergency (“PHE”) and moving into a new future. Providers are facing audits, fines, and unexpected scrutiny based on practices that they got used to under PHE guidelines. Even though a provider may not mean to violate reinstated or new laws, violations can still result in significant fines and even criminal charges.
This webinar will touch on various healthcare compliance topics including telehealth, HIPAA compliance, Medicaid, licensure concerns, payment for COVID testing, and the latest fraud and abuse trends and cases. These topics are varied but all had some significant changes due to COVID so it is important for providers to understand what requirements apply now.
Telehealth, for example, has grown exponentially in popularity as a method to provide clinical services and many states have implemented updated telehealth laws. In this webinar we will discuss what providers need to consider when providing telehealth across state lines and tele-prescribing. In addition, the coverage of COVID vaccines and testing by all payors has changed significantly since the PHE ended. Providers must ensure that they are billing for these tests and vaccines properly or they could face significant repercussions under federal fraud and abuse laws. The webinar will also educate attendees on changes in HIPAA flexibilities following the end of the PHE as well as how providers should handle the fallout from the disenrollment of many Medicaid beneficiaries.
While these topics may seem unrelated, many practices will have to deal with all of them at some point and the webinar will have useful information for everyone.
