How well do your employees understand the False Claims Act?

If you’re not already training your employees on this important piece of healthcare law, now is the time to start.

According to many healthcare experts, healthcare providers need to train their employees in False Claims Act (FAC) to ensure their facility complies with the Deficit Reduction Act (DRA).

Situations that lead to false claims occur in hospitals all the time. Learn to address these issues with False Claims Act Training Kit. This kit—which includes a video (VHS or DVD) and package of 25 handbooks—uses case scenarios to demonstrate real-life violations, translate complex legal principles, and provide sound advice about how to stop violations and prevent penalties and fines.

Special Bonus!
The DRA requires you to include an explanation of the FCA in employee handbooks. You'll also receive a special CD-ROM with technical language to include in employee handbooks. You can cut and paste the language, which was written by an attorney, right into your handbook.

Take a look at a few of the topics covered:

• The False Claims Act defined, including whistleblower provisions
• Employees’ liability under the FCA
• Why employees need to care about billing compliance
• What employees should do when they discover a potential violation
• Billing practices under government scrutiny

The handbook also includes a quiz to test staff understanding of the lessons, and to document training. The package also includes a worksheet for employees to fill out as they watch the training video.

Healthcare providers face triple damages—plus penalties of up to $11,000 per claim—for FCA violations. It's no wonder that healthcare attorneys across the country are urging providers to train staff on the FCA.

The DRA requirements set the standard for sound best practices for compliance excellence. The False Claims Act Training Kit is an investment in your organization's compliance program and a cost-effective way to ensure every member of the staff is properly trained to meet the deficit reduction and false claim challenges.
