Regulatory Compliance

Today’s healthcare regulatory environment is more complex than ever.

Regulatory compliance has always been essential for healthcare organizations. But the legislative upheaval that healthcare has been subjected to over the past decade is nearly unprecedented. Hospitals and health systems have a litany of programs with which they must comply, all while fending off threats of data breaches and other instances of abuse.

Successful healthcare organizations proactively identify areas of risk and instances of noncompliance. ECG can help your organization be prepared on a number of fronts.

Meaningful Use Readiness. Provide education, strategy, and roadmap develop¬ment; readiness assessment; gap analysis; and tracking for compliance with ARRA/HITECH requirements.

Security and Privacy Compliance. Develop a robust program to include education, risk and impact analysis, policies and procedures, regulatory requirements, business partner compliance review, incident response and remediation planning, and HIPAA Omnibus mitigation planning.

Value-Based Care and At-Risk. Planning for and compliance with government reimbursement incentive/penalty programs (e.g., PQRS, IQR, MIPS).
