title: DMEPOS (Durable Medical Equipment, Prosthetics, Orthotics and Supply) model compliance program: does the OIG have it right?
abstract: Companies of every size and structure can and should develop an ethical culture of compliance in which prevention, detection, and resolution of abusive practices are "core values." OIG has released a draft Compliance Guideline that includes a seven-element plan to which all agencies must comply. Yet, compliance programs simply are not a "one-size-fits-all" item.
