Compliance & HIPAA Guidelines Manual
Our OIG and HIPAA Compliance Manual covers information on Office of Inspector General (OIG) 3rd Party Billing Guidelines and comes with a sample plan that can be adapted for any billing service.
And, because HIPAA Regulations and OIG Guidelines both cover Privacy, we felt it was important to include new HIPAA regulations in this manual. We provide an in-depth look into privacy v. security, electronic records, faxing, and more.
