Session 1 - OIG Audit Targets in 2023

Get instantly after Purchase!

Healthcare is a multi-trillion-dollar industry that remains highly regulated.  When organizations bill for services, they are reimbursed on a good-faith basis with the expectation that clinical documentation supports the services reported and regulatory compliance has been met.  Every year the OIG releases their respective work plan which highlights areas and services that represent high priority audit targets during the upcoming year.   It is important to stay aware of the 2023 OIG audit targets and use the work plan as a guide to mitigate compliance risk.  Healthcare compliance audits and investigations are occurring at unprecedented rates.  Gone are the days when the large hospitals and pricey DRGs (diagnosis related groups) were the only targets on the radar for compliance enforcement.  It is imperative for organizations to stay diligent and apprised of these compliance initiatives and be especially proactive in their compliance efforts, conduct regular audits of processes and clinical documentation, and comply with the mandatory self-reporting requirements set forth by the Affordable Care Act.
