Synopsis

The Attorney-Client Privilege allows hospice to refrain from disclosing certain confidential communications to the government, its auditors, or other parties, even if that information is formally requested by a record request, subpoena, or otherwise. The privilege, if appropriately utilized, allows hospice leadership and personnel to have candid discussions with their attorneys about compliance matters (including audits and internal investigations) and is an essential tool for any hospice that may find itself involved in litigation. In this podcast, you will learn how to effectively make use of the Attorney-Client Privilege to improve your compliance efforts and to better manage False Claims Act and other litigation risk.
