Compliance Program

At USFHP Saint Vincents we are dedicated to ethics and compliance in all aspects of the program. It is our responsibility to put integrity first in the conduct of our daily operations and service.

USFHP Saint Vincents has an effective compliance program including a Chief Compliance Officer, regular education, policies and procedures, response to concerns and monitoring and audits. Our commitment also includes protection of patient privacy and extensive cybersecurity precautions. All staff are educated on the rules and regulations around patient privacy and how computer access is granted and used.

In addition, there is a Code of Conduct that is the standard for all employees and vendors to insure that we have an active dedication to ethical behavior and accountability for all employees and vendors.

All employees and business partners are educated on their responsibilities, expectations and sense of duty to the beneficiaries, family and organization.

Our goal is to deliver the best healthcare services to all our members in a way that guarantees compliance on every aspect of that service including provider credentialing, claim payment, privacy protections, customer service and all services provided.
