    • Health care is highly regulated –specifically federal healthcare payor programs.

    • Many activities that are perfectly legal in other industries are not legal in the health care field.

    • All of the above.

    Correct Answer
    A. All of the above.
    Explanation
    The given answer, "All of the above," is correct because all of the statements provided in the question support the need for NMI to comply as a healthcare organization. The healthcare industry is highly regulated, and activities that may be legal in other industries may not be legal in healthcare. Implementing an effective compliance program helps organizations identify and address specific risk areas, which is beneficial for business. Furthermore, there is an increasing number of enforcement actions by federal and state governments against providers and suppliers who are not in compliance. Therefore, NMI must comply for all of these reasons.

It aims to prevent fraud and abuse in healthcare by ensuring that referrals are made based on the patient's best interest rather than financial incentives.

    • No

    • Depends on the specifics of the job

    Correct Answer

In fact, it is recommended to report such concerns to the appropriate channels, such as the human resources department or a designated compliance officer, to ensure that the issue is addressed properly and impartially.

    Explanation
    Under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA), healthcare providers are allowed to use or disclose Protected Health Information (PHI) without patient authorization for purposes of treatment, payment, and healthcare operations. This means that healthcare providers can share PHI with other healthcare professionals involved in the patient's treatment, with insurance companies for billing and reimbursement purposes, and for internal administrative activities such as quality improvement and staff training. However, it is important to note that there are certain limitations and restrictions on the use and disclosure of PHI even in these situations.
