The Healthcare Basic Compliance Academy, a key forum for compliance professionals, is scheduled to take place from February 26th to 29th in Phoenix, Arizona. This three-and-a-half-day event is a substantial classroom-style learning experience fashioned for those looking to take a leap forward in their careers by thoroughly understanding the fundamentals of compliance program management in healthcare.
The event is intended primarily for professionals who already have some foundational knowledge and experience in the field. A core objective of the academy is to offer extensive training on the effective implementation and management of a compliance program rooted in the Seven Element Approach.
For those unfamiliar, the Seven Element Approach refers to a well-regarded compliance model which outlines the key components to an effective compliance program. These elements include implementing written policies and procedures, designating a compliance officer and compliance committee, conducting effective training and education, developing effective lines of communication, enforcing standards through disciplinary guidelines, conducting internal monitoring and auditing, and responding promptly to detected offenses and undertaking corrective action.
The Healthcare Basic Compliance Academy not only emphasizes the importance of these seven pillars of successful compliance programs but also provides hands-on training to help professionals comprehend how they can be actualized in a practical healthcare setting.
This event is organized by the Health Care Compliance Association (HCCA), a non-profit organization dedicated to improving the quality and scope of compliance in healthcare. Their overarching goal is to provide healthcare compliance professionals with the resources necessary to meet the complex demands of today’s environment.
A substantial learning experience like this offers a unique opportunity for compliance professionals to not only enrich their knowledge base but also to network with industry peers, discuss compliance challenges and best practices, and ultimately enhance their toolkit for managing compliance programs in their own organizations.
