Emerging Threats: The “Fraud Factor”
Patient & Caregiver Safety

Session Overview

Fraud is exploding across clinical, operational, and financial areas. From ransomware with disrupted services and delay of treatment to identity theft and insurance fraud. The problem is exploding, however there are new concepts, tools, and resources that are being employed by leading organizations. Professional liability for caregivers voicing their concerns regarding safety, staffing, and PPE provisions is intensifying.

A case based approach to the most common safety issues will be presented through interviews of a number of frontline caregivers, administrators, and patient safety advocates.
