In many industries for almost a decade the enforcement was lacking for many compliance programs. The Federal Trade Commission warned last year that businesses should not continue to remain complacent with instituting the proper measures. Health care professionals, financial planners, advisors, brokers, and registered investment advisors have seen a huge increase in the amount of investigations into compliance due to oversight from newly created enforcement organizations in addition to the I.R.S. and S.E.C. The health care industry has recently begun to see serious fines being levied for non compliance with many laws that were imposed years ago. H.I.T.E.C.H. violations have begun to be enforced and the oversight dept of the govt O.C.R. are intending to be self propagating through fines and levies. They will be even more severe for organizations that have not implemented any compliance related documentation. We could go on and on about what is now occurring but why not find how our organization can prevent a serious fine or worse yet a breach incident?
