The session will highlight related resources available to healthcare facilities and medical staffs as part of the investigation and resources available to providers for improving their practices and any deficiencies in care or conduct with examples of case studies. The speakers will further explore legal issues related to investigations such as reporting requirements, use of investigations in hearings, investigation when there are concerns of whistleblower retaliation claims and issues to consider when engaging in joint investigations.
