description The Office of the Inspector General is increasing its antifraud strategies. Operation Restore Trust surveys have already resulted in millions of dollars in criminal fines and settlements. No home care organization is immune. Sanctions, criminal sentences, and penalties may be lessened if a home care organization enacts a corporate integrity (compliance) plan. This article addresses federal laws that describe fraud and abuse initiatives in home care and guidelines for corporate integrity plans. Key elements of such a plan are presented. The article will assist all home care organizations in understanding the importance and development of a corporate integrity plan.
