Orders are now being accepted for the new California Hospital Compliance Manual. This highly anticipated manual is the only publication written for hospital compliance officers that integrates California law with federal law on high-risk compliance areas.
The California Hospital Compliance Manual focuses on the key topics and laws that must be addressed in an effective compliance program. Topics include federal and state False Claims Acts, submission of accurate claims information, proper cost reporting practices, physician self-referral, anti-kickback laws, repayment and self-disclosure, hospital fair pricing policies, issues for tax-exempt hospitals, and hospital licensing and certification. A model compliance plan also is included that hospitals can adapt to fit their operations.
Lead authors are Lloyd Bookman of Hooper, Lundy & Bookman, Inc. (HLB), and Lois Richardson of CHA. Bookman is a founding partner of HLB, and has specialized in Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement and compliance for 30 years. His practice involves exclusively the representation of health care providers in a wide variety of reimbursement, regulatory and transactional matters. Richardson has served as CHA’s legal resource for the past 18 years, primarily as legal counsel and most recently as vice president of legal publications and education. She is the author of numerous CHA publications, including the Consent Manual, California Health Information Privacy Manual and Mental Health Law.
