2 Presentation Roadmap Why law students and junior attorneys? How do they fit into my Compliance Department? What can they do? Where can I find them?

3 What do Law Students and Junior Associates Bring to a Compliance Department? Entry-level assistance (e.g., research, editing) with benefit of healthcare or legal education or experience Zero or low-cost opportunity to tackle important, but back-burner and time-consuming projects Research skills and resources Back-up from academic supervisors and senior attorneys, if needed

4 Law Students & Junior Associates Interns and Externs Interns work for experience and references (paid or unpaid) Externs for credit, require more supervision May be housed in Legal or Compliance Department Junior Associates Request project to be staffed with junior associates Reach out directly once relationship is established

5 Sample Compliance Projects for Law Students and Junior Associates Hospital needs to review all Medical Director agreements to confirm compliance with Stark Law Create checklist based on regulatory requirements (e.g., signatures, timely renewals) Review documents to identify potential non-compliance Considerations Work conducted at request of counsel (in-house or outside) Do not assume, identify, or label any agreements as noncompliant or violations requires legal analysis

6 Sample Compliance Projects for Law Students and Junior Associates Physician group needs to update HIPAA policies to conform with final HITECH rulemaking Review HITECH omnibus rule to identify new requirements Review existing policies to identify gaps Draft policy and procedure updates Considerations Do not finalize any policies without legal review don t commit to more than you need/want to Policies should be grounded in organization s real practices law student or junior associate should know your data flow
