WHC 303 - Regulatory Compliance & Accreditation

1 course unit
Healthcare is one of the most highly regulated industries in the United States, with extensive oversight of patient care and billing practices. This course will familiarize students with the operational role of managers/ administrators in designing, implementing and overseeing systems to ensure compliance with state and federal guidelines. Students will also be introduced to the standards required for accreditation by JCAHO, the Joint Commission for Accreditation for Healthcare Organizations, a highly valued credential in today’s increasingly competitive healthcare market. Course content will focus largely on preparing future managers to design, operate, evaluate, and refine an organization-specific quality management program, an essential element in meeting and maintaining JCAHO standards.
