Staying Compliant in a Heavily Regulated Industry
The Virtual Compliance Officer; an Internet-based HME compliance program designed to provide medical equipment companies with
individualized levels of human resources and Virtual Compliance Officer support.
Companies in heavily regulated industries are under the constant stress of complying with increasing regulations.
Current rationale recognizes those industries as banking, finance, insurance, and healthcare. Hospitals have
long recognized the importance of the compliance officer but the medical equipment industry is a sleeping giant.
Compliance basically has to do with following the law and regulations as they apply to a specific industry. The
mission of The Virtual Compliance Officer DME Compliance program is to monitor compliance requirements with the applicable laws, rules
and regulations as they apply to the medical equipment industry and then send to the client the required information
in the required time frame. This includes regulations governing federal and state healthcare programs, fraud and abuse
matters, ethics, human resource issues involving hiring and managing employees, privacy and security requirements and
corporate governance. In addition there will be an emphasis on accreditation requirements as they are applied to the
individual companies and their choice of accreditation agencies.
The Virtual Compliance Officer is tailored to your company’s specific needs to perform required tasks such as
Personnel Evaluations, track TB testing, conduct Fire Drills, and document the results. This will enable small
as well as large companies to successfully track and record the required activities that accreditation agencies
look for but can be inadvertently overlooked.
Key Components of The Virtual Compliance Officer are:
 Safety Program Reminders
Maintaining Personnel Files
Identifying Quality Improvement Audit Potential
Addressing Accreditation Standards
Testing Fire Drills and Emergency Plans
Employee Orientation and Competency Testing
Management Reporting and Workplace Programming
