2019 Healthcare Enforcement Compliance Conference

Compliance programs may produce evidence of regulatory violations against healthcare organizations and their officers/directors. CCOs, however, are required to communicate that data to internal/external stakeholders as part of robust compliance efforts

In some cases, evidentiary privileges may protect this information from disclosure and, thus, encourage more robust auditing and monitoring activities, thorough internal investigations, and transparent communications concerning compliance matters

The scope and use of these privileges in the context of compliance programs, however, is often misunderstood. This presentation will explore and clarify the application of different privileges and provide practical advice as to appropriate usage
