Today’s health care industry is undergoing massive restructuring and compliance professionals must keep abreast of all the new laws, regulations, and enforcement actions to meet the challenge this reform brings. More than 2,000 health care compliance professionals will be in San Diego to address this rapidly changing environment at the Health Care Compliance Association’s (HCCA) 18th Compliance Institute—the largest and most comprehensive compliance conference developed for and by compliance, HCCA announced today.
“The health care industry is central to our economy and undergoing unprecedented change. New regulations and established ones both pose substantial requirements that health care providers can’t afford not to meet,” said HCCA Chief Executive Officer Roy Snell. “Fortunately there are some real success stories out there, and this conference gives attendees a chance to learn from them and bring them back to their organizations.”
The Compliance Institute is the primary education and networking event for professionals working in the health care compliance profession.
