Major Laws Affecting Fraud and Abuse

In an effort to promote awareness of healthcare fraud and abuse, your facility’s compliance officer has asked you to write a report that illustrates the major laws that address and support prosecution. In your report, provide the following:

• A description and comparison of each law.
• Summary of the importance and benefits of legal and ethical behavior in healthcare.

Be sure to include all seven major laws covered in this module’s reading and provide a summary that will emphasize the importance of professional, legal, and ethical behavior in the healthcare workplace.

The length of your report should be 1-2 pages.
