Requires HIPAA covered entities and their business associates to provide notification following a breach of unsecured protected health information
14 Breach Notification Rule Definition of a Breach A breach is, generally, an impermissible use or disclosure under the Privacy Rule that compromises the security or privacy of the protected health information such that the use or disclosure poses a significant risk of financial, reputational, or other harm to the affected individual.
15 Breach Notification Rule Breach Notification Requirements Following a breach of unsecured protected health information covered entities must provide notification of the breach to affected individuals, the Health Plan, Secretary of Health and Human Services, and, in certain circumstances, to the media. In addition, business associates must notify covered entities that a breach has occurred.
16 Breach Notification Rule Individual Notice Must provide this individual notice in written form by firstclass mail, or alternatively, by if the affected individual has agreed to receive such notices electronically. Must be provided without unreasonable delay and in no case later than 60 days following the discovery of a breach and must include: A description of the breach, a description of the types of information that were involved in the breach, The steps affected individuals should take to protect themselves from potential harm, A brief description of what the covered entity is doing to investigate the breach, mitigate the harm, and prevent further breaches, as well as contact information for the covered entity.

20 Fraud, Waste & Abuse Defined Fraud: The intentional misrepresentation of data for financial gain. Fraud occurs when an individual knows or should know that something is false and makes a knowing deception that could result in some unauthorized benefit to themselves or another person.¹ Waste: Is overutilization: the extravagant, careless or needless expenditure of healthcare benefits or services that results from deficient practices or decisions.¹ Abuse: Involves payment for items or services where there was no intent to deceive or misrepresent but the outcome of poor insufficient methods results in unnecessary costs to the Medicare program. 2 Source: 1.CMS Glossary; CMS Medicare Learning Network (MLN) 2. Medicare Physician Guide: A Resource for Residents, Practicing Physicians, & Other Health Care Professionals, Tenth Edition (October 2008)
21 Physician Self Referral Law / Stark Law Purpose: Prohibit improper referral relationships that can harm the Federal health care programs and program beneficiaries. Improper referral relationships can lead to overutilization can lead to increased costs, & corruption of the medical decision making process Starks Law accomplishes this by prohibiting physician from submitting referrals for Medicare patients to entities where the physician s immediate family member has a financial relationship example?
22 Anti-Kickback Key Things Every Health Care Provider Should Know About the Anti-Kickback Statute 1. Anti-kickback statute prohibits asking for or receiving anything of value to induce or reward referrals involving federal health care programs.
23 Federal Anti-Kickback Statute 2. Know the penalties under the law Criminal = Felony = JAILTIME. Conviction can result in fines up to $25,000 per violation or up to a five year prison term or both Civil & Administrative Penalties: Can lead to False Claims Act Liability Program exclusion from Medicare & Medicaid Can lead to penalties under the civil monetary penalties law up to a $50,000 penalty per violation and an assessment of up to three times the total amount of the kickback payment (even if some part of the payment was for a legitimate purpose).
24 Conflict of Interest An employee must disclose any possible conflicts so that PPMC may assess and prevent potential conflicts of interest from arising. A potential or actual conflict of interest occurs when an employee is in a position to influence a decision that may result in a personal gain for the employee/family member as a result of the Company s business dealings. An employee/family member may not own or hold any significant interest in a supplier, customer or competitor of the company Employee must disclose actual/potential conflicts of interest in writing to supervisor / human resources.
25 Gifts & Gratuities PPMC employees will not solicit or accept gifts of significant value (i.e., in excess of $25.00), lavish entertainment or other benefits from potential and actual customers, suppliers or competitors. This policy is provided to all employees upon hire in the Employee Handbook.
26 Disciplinary Standards Disciplinary action may result where a responsible employee s failure to detect a violation is attributable to his or her negligence or reckless conduct. Possible disciplinary actions for improper conduct, including oral and written warnings, suspension, and termination. PPMC makes reasonable best efforts to see that disciplinary actions are applied consistently to all staff and managers. No employee is exempt.
27 Auditing and Monitoring Department / Company The level of compliance within each functional area is assessed on an ongoing basis. Periodic audits to determine the level of compliance with federal and state statutes, regulations and program requirements.
28 Auditing and Monitoring Prohibition of the employment of or contracting with persons known to have a propensity to engage in inappropriate or improper conduct. Efforts to ensure that individuals who have been recently convicted of a criminal offense related to heath care or who are listed as debarred, excluded or otherwise ineligible for participation in Federal health care programs are not hired. - OIG Established sanction verification processes for all potential employees and contracted providers.
29 Reporting Employees are responsible for reporting a concern or potential misconduct to their supervisor or manager. The Compliance Dept. has an open door policy to receive employee reports or concerns regarding potential violations. Employees, enrollees and providers may also use the COMPLIANCE HOTLINE to report any potential misconduct or concerns. If an investigation ultimately reveals criminal, civil, or administrative violations have occurred, the appropriate federal and state officials will be notified immediately.
30 Required Reporting Violations of the code of conduct, ethics or any fraud, waste or abuse must be reported. Not reporting fraud or suspected fraud can make you a party to a case by allowing the fraud to continue.. Fraud or suspected fraud may also be reported anonymously Everyone has the right and responsibility to report possible fraud, waste, or abuse. Remember: You may report anonymously Employees may report any suspected compliance issue (HIPAA, FWA, Clinical, etc.) anonymously, without fear of intimidation and retaliation as this is prohibited when reporting a concern in good faith.
