Regulatory Compliance

It is hard to imagine a more heavily-regulated function within the correctional setting than the provision of healthcare services.

Correctional healthcare programs, for example, must adhere to guidelines and standards set forth by the Department of Health, the Health Professions Bureau, the DEA, the CDC, the CLIA (Clinical Laboratory Improvement Act), the ADA...the list goes on.

Successful regulatory compliance begins with a thorough knowledge of the applicable rules and the means to establish appropriate, ongoing documentation.

Does your facility have a TB Control Plan? An HIV exposure response plan? Is your CLIA Waiver in place? My experience in correctional healthcare management can help you comply with a growing body of regulation.
