On the rugged regulatory terrain, you might confront this issue: who bears the burden and blame of regulatory noncompliance when your facility relies on non-medical software companies that create electronic medical records?

Many of these electronic records are self-populated. So, what happens if you undergo a Recovery Audit Contractor (RAC) audit and are accused of wrongdoing? Offering insight into this issue during the next edition of Monitor Mondays will be healthcare attorney Knicole Emanuel, a partner in the Potomac Law Group, who will be the broadcast’s special guest.

The broadcast rundown also will include:

• Monday Rounds: Ronald Hirsch, MD, vice president of R1 Physician Advisory Services, will be making his Monday Rounds with another installment of his popular segment.
