The AHLA Fraud and Compliance Forum is designed to serve as both a crash course for advisors just entering the healthcare industry and a deep dive for experienced advocates seeking new strategies. This conference features sessions led by fraud and compliance specialists who work with a wide variety of healthcare providers, as well as presenters from federal healthcare fraud regulatory and enforcement agencies. Two and a half days of thoughtfully developed presentations will cover the full spectrum of fraud and compliance challenges facing healthcare advisors today:

• Introductions to critical areas of concern, such as coding, false claims, physician self-referral law, the Anti-Kickback Statute, and criminal enforcement
• Compliance strategies relating to operational activities such as employee screenings, coverage determinations, use of healthcare information, and more
• Analysis of risks and strategies in evolving areas such as Medicare Advantage, private equity, value-based arrangements, joint ventures, and more
• Updates on enforcement trends — and defenses — for both established and emerging risk areas
• Sessions incorporating the latest legislation, regulation, case law, and agency activity as they apply to a broad range of healthcare activities 

Stout attendees will include Jamie McIntyre, Daryl Johnson, Jim Hills, and Nicholas Janiga.
