Nursing facilities are facing increased government scrutiny. Federal and state government agencies are auditing the services provided and carefully inspecting documentation, coding, billing, and the quality of care provided. An effective compliance education program is essential in protecting nursing facilities from fines and penalties.

Online compliance training courses from HCCS are in use at hundreds of healthcare institutions across the country to provide recurring compliance training for staff and administrators. The courses, including the new Nursing Facility compliance course and online HIPAA compliance training course, are designed to change staff behavior and maintain compliance with changing regulations. The online courses are customizable, easy to understand, and updated annually or more often as regulations change. The courses include interactive exercises to keep learners engaged and increase retention.
The Nursing Facility Compliance course covers many areas including:
"The Nursing Facility Compliance course expands our widely used online compliance training library to the vital long term care providers," says Ben Diamond, President of HCCS. "The course provides a great foundation for a compliance program to educate nursing facility employees about fraud, waste, and abuse. It provides a measure of protection for these organizations from increasing and relentless government attention. Large health systems can utilize both the HCCS Corporate Compliance online training course and this new Nursing Facility Compliance course to meet the compliance training needs of all of their facilities."
The Nursing Facility Compliance online training course is available now.
