Six weeks of essential compliance
Standards of Conduct: From Grant Rules to Everyday Practice
Federal grant rules emphasize clear written standards that detail expected behaviors, promote ethical conduct, and support compliance with applicable laws. Learn key components of effective Standards of Conduct, practical communication strategies, and how to incorporate lessons learned from compliance incidents.
Conflict of Interest: Identifying & Managing
Explore conflict of interest requirements under federal grant rules, including HRSA's COI Policy and the Health Center Program Compliance Manual. Real-world scenarios will help attendees understand how conflicts arise in day-to-day operations, contracting, procurement, and governance.
Name the Threat: Understanding Workplace Violence in the Health Center Environment
Workplace violence is not just one thing. Using OSHA's four-type classification framework, this session examines the unique risk factors that make health centers vulnerable — and reviews the regulatory landscape for FQHCs under 42 CFR Part 491.
Three Threats, Three Responses
Building on Session 1, this session addresses the three workplace violence scenarios most relevant to health centers: de-escalation, active assailant response, and personal relationship violence — with a clear decision-making framework to distinguish between them.
Managing Difficult Patient Encounters: Strategies for Health Center Staff and Providers
Practical guidance on managing challenging patient relationships over time, addressing what happens after the immediate encounter. Covers clinical, legal, and administrative strategies when a patient's behavior presents recurring challenges.
Terminating the Patient Relationship: Legal Requirements, Policy Considerations & Risk Management
When ongoing management strategies have been exhausted, health centers must know how to end a patient relationship lawfully and defensibly. Learn how to evaluate existing policies, draft compliant termination notices, and make sound decisions when the relationship can no longer continue.
Health Center Contracting: HRSA Requirements, Procurement Standards & Practical Strategies
HRSA expects health centers to maintain agreements that clearly reflect program requirements. This session examines federal requirements for health center agreements — particularly contracts for in-scope services (Form 5A) — and procurement standards under 2 C.F.R. Part 200.
Negotiating & Managing Health Center Contracts: Legal Terms, Risk Allocation & Lifecycle Oversight
Signing a contract is the beginning, not the end. This session focuses on practical skills for negotiating favorable contract terms, identifying and pushing back on provisions that create unacceptable risk, and managing contracts effectively throughout their lifecycle.
Understanding AI in the Health Center Environment: Applications, Privacy & Security Risks
AI tools are entering health center operations rapidly. This session provides a grounded introduction to how AI is used in health centers, what data privacy and security obligations apply, and a framework for evaluating AI tools — including the intersection with HIPAA, 42 C.F.R. Part 2, and emerging AI regulations.
AI, Malpractice & Legal Liability at Health Centers: Navigating Risk in a Rapidly Changing Landscape
When AI-assisted decisions contribute to patient harm, who is responsible? This session addresses the malpractice, corporate liability, and governance risks that AI adoption creates for health centers — including how the FTCA deeming program interacts with AI-related claims.
Breach Basics: From Discovery to Notification
Health centers remain significant targets for cyberattacks and privacy incidents involving patient information. This session covers identifying and evaluating potential breaches — including the definition of a breach, risk assessment requirements, notification timelines, and reporting obligations to individuals, HHS, and the media. Also explores the impact of the 2024 amendments to 42 CFR Part 2 on breach notification for all health centers, including those without a Part 2 program.
Beyond Breach Basics: OCR Investigations, Litigation & Enforcement
Once a breach is reported, health centers face government investigations, class action lawsuits, and community questions. This session walks through OCR's investigation process, highlights recent enforcement focus areas, and covers building a corrective action plan that limits potential penalties. Also addresses class action litigation risks and practical strategies for engaging with the community and rebuilding trust after a breach.
