Compliance Program Overview

Health Management’s mission is to provide quality, cost-effective healthcare in a positive and productive work environment. In fulfilling this mission, the corporation is dedicated to adhering to the highest ethical standards, and, accordingly, recognizes the importance of compliance with all applicable state and federal laws. Reflecting this dedication, Health Management has developed and implemented a Corporate Compliance and Ethics Program.

The Corporate Compliance and Ethics Program is designed to ensure (i) that Health Management associates are generally familiar with the laws, rules, and regulations that govern their specific employment responsibilities, (ii) that Health Management associates always have a way to report concerns about inappropriate conduct, and (iii) that Health Management associates become an integral part of ensuring compliance throughout all of Health Management’s business operations.

All Health Management associates shall receive training and education on the Corporate Compliance and Ethics Program and shall be required to certify their acceptance of the requirements set forth in the Compliance Manual. The success of the Corporate Compliance and Ethics Program and the success of Health Management’s mission to continue to provide quality, cost-effective healthcare in a positive and productive work environment depends greatly on the dedication and efforts of each and every Health Management associate.
