This session will address the importance of compliance and potential penalties for noncompliance. Specifically, the session will touch on the important role that an effective corporate compliance plays in protecting the board and the health center. Additional topics include key issues related to compliance with the Health Resources and Services Administration’s Health Center Program and Internal Revenue Service Compliance. Legal consideration related to COVID-19 will also be addressed. This course is currently a requirement for NACHC's Governance Certificate for Health Center Board Members.
