On November 6, 2023, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Office of Inspector General (OIG) released its General Compliance Program Guidance (GCPG), the first in a series of new, non-binding reference guides designed to share information with health care compliance professionals and other health care industry stakeholders about relevant Federal laws, compliance program infrastructure, OIG resources, and other information useful to understanding health care compliance.
The GCPC will help all individuals and entities involved in the health care industry, including but not limited to physicians and hospitals, home health agencies and hospices, durable medical equipment (DME) suppliers, nursing facilities, Medicare Advantage Organizations (MAOs), and third-party medical billing companies to self-monitor compliance with applicable Federal laws and program requirements as part of their efforts to prevent, detect, and address fraud, waste, and abuse in the health care system.
