On March 27, 2017, in conjunction with the Health Care Compliance Association (“HCCA”) annual Compliance Institute (“CI”), the Department of Health and Human Services (“HHS”), Office of the Inspector General (“OIG”) released Measuring Compliance Program Effectiveness: A Resource Guide (“Resource Guide”), which outlines a wide range of concrete ideas for contemplating ways in which various components of a corporate compliance program can be benchmarked and measured.

The Resource Guide emanated from a collaborative session during a roundtable on January 17, 2017 in Washington, D.C. where seasoned compliance personnel and OIG representatives met to specifically explore methods of assessing and measuring key compliance program elements and functions. The roundtable format allowed for the sharing of ideas with the expectation that those ideas would subsequently be aggregated into a resource to provide ideas for compliance program evaluation and enhancement. Importantly, the Resource Guide is neither a “standard” nor designed to be a checklist and, in fact, the Resource Guide acknowledges the impracticality of using all or even a large number of the measurement options.
