What Clinical Labs Should Know as Pursuit of Healthcare Fraud Accelerates

Partner Jacquelyn Papish wrote an article, “What clinical labs should know as pursuit of healthcare fraud accelerates,” for Clinical Laboratory News, a publication of the Association for Diagnostics & Laboratory Medicine. The article discusses how federal and state enforcers are deploying sophisticated data analytics and coordinated task forces to scrutinize clinical laboratories and explores best practices labs can adopt to maintain compliance.

“In today's heightened enforcement landscape, labs can no longer afford to rely on reactive compliance efforts,” Jacquelyn writes. “With regulators taking a collaborative, data-driven approach to identifying and prosecuting fraud, labs must invest in robust compliance, from conducting thorough audits to systematizing recordkeeping.”
