1 Title of Paper Student Name HCS/430 Due Date Taryn Zubich 2 Title of Paper In this section of your paper, please provide a short introduction to let your reader know what you will be covering in your paper. You should identify the healthcare regulation you will be focusing on for this assignment. Essentially, highlight your main points and tell the reader what you are going to tell them. Do not write in first person, for example, do not say “I will discuss”, or “We will be covering”. Instead, say, “This paper will discuss…”, or “This paper will cover the main highlights of……”. Impact of the Law or Regulation on the Health Care Industry In this area of your work, you want to define the law that you have chosen from the list. Define the law by explaining what the law is, how it was created, why it was created, and what areas of the health care industry it applies to. For example, the False Claims Act is a federal law governing Medicare fraud and abuse. The False Claims Act (FCA) protects the government from being overcharged or sold substandard goods or services (False Claims Act, 2018). You can also define when the law was created and what the overall purpose of the law is. For example, the purpose of EMTALA is to prevent “‘patient dumping”, the practice of refusing to provide emergency medical treatment to patients unable to pay or transferring them before emergency conditions are stabilized. EMTALA was passed in 1986 (EMTALA, n.d.). Please be sure to add citations throughout your work to support the information as researched fact, and please be sure to watch your word count to make sure you will reach the minimum word count in the paper. You will not be penalized if you go over the word count of 1,050 total words; however, you will lose points if you do not meet the minimum word count. (Zubich, 2018) 3 Impact of the Legal or Regulatory Requirements on the Healthcare Industry In this area, you want to get more in depth with the elements of the law or regulation you selected from the list above. Here, you want to evaluate the purpose of the law and define the impact that the law has on the health care industry. You’ll want to cover what health care organizations have to do to comply with the law or regulation, define what happens to the health care organization if they don’t comply (i.e civil penalties, fines, criminal penalties), and further evaluate the law to identify how the law serves to protect patient safety, quality, or overall patient care. For example, if you chose HIPAA, you can discuss the fact that the purpose of HIPAA Privacy is to protect patient the use and disclosure of a patient’s protected health information (HIPAA, n.d.). Cover how an organization should create policies to align with the law or regulation you chose. Research this law in detail and you will find an abundance of information for any one of the chosen laws or regulations from the list. Please be sure to add citations throughout your work to support the information as researched fact, and please be sure to meet the minimum word count of 700 words total in your paper. You will not be penalized if you go over the word count of 1,050 total words, but you will lose points if you do not meet the minimum word count. (Zubich, 2018) Role of Accreditation and Regulatory Agencies on the Law or Regulation In this area, you want to define any accreditations or regulatory agencies which are associated with the law or regulation you selected. For example, the Anti-Kickback Statute (AKS) is regulated by the Federal Government, more specifically the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). There are many agencies, though, which also work to detect and prevent fraud cases under the AKS. These agencies would be the Office of Inspector General 4 (OIG), the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), Zone Program Integrity Contractors (ZPICs), etc…. (Fraud, 2018). Basically, in this section, define accreditations and/or regulatory agencies which specifically play a role in the law or regulation that you selected. If there is accreditation associated with the law or regulation, define the process and agency which regulates that process. If there is only an agency, or agencies, which are associated with the regulation or law, then please discuss the agency work that is done. Please be sure to add citations throughout your work to support the information as researched fact, and please be sure to meet the minimum word count of 700 total words. You will not be penalized if you go over the word count of 1,050 words, but you will be penalized if you do not meet the minimum word count. (Zubich, 2018) Conclusion The closing paragraph is designed to bring the reader to your way of thinking and really tell the reader what you just told them in the paper. The closing paragraph summarizes the key points from the supporting paragraphs without introducing any new information. Be sure to meet the minimum total word count of 700 words in order to avoid automatic point deductions. You will not be penalized if you go over 1,050 words. 5 References (*Be sure references are always on a separate page and are listed in alphabetical order per APA format; please remember 3 references are required for this assignment) EMTALA, Law.
