Growth

Organizational growth is easily stunted when operational inefficiencies pose larger compliance threats. Our cross-functional subject matter experts develop early warning systems to ensure that operational inefficiencies and threats to member satisfaction are identified and addressed immediately, with limited impact on member experience, business performance, and potential growth opportunities.

Cross-functional relationships and diligent oversight, both internally and with vendors, are critical in maintaining a proactive approach to compliance. GHG’s team of compliance experts can help your plan develop early warning systems to ensure that operational inefficiencies and threats are identified immediately and have a limited impact on member experience, potential growth opportunities, and business performance.

CMS audit practices may have undergone a few changes in recent years, but the core motivation remains the same; beneficiary protection. Our compliance experts can help minimize risk and maximize resources by performing a gap analysis and a comprehensive Part C and D audit.

Remediation

Through an internal auditing process, the need for improvements may have been identified and corrective actions may have been implemented. GHG can determine whether the appropriate measures have been put in place to monitor and audit these items going forward to ensure sustainable correction. Our remediation services can also help you anticipate any potential deficiencies that CMS may identify during audit.
