title: The OIG's model compliance program.
abstract: Home care agencies face never-ending and hard-to-track list of rules. The Office of the Inspector General has provided guidelines for agencies on implementing a voluntary compliance program to prevent fraud, abuse, and waste. Through the development of internal controls, which promote adherence to federal and state laws, agencies safeguard themselves from problems.
