  • Colleen Auchenbach

    Colleen Auchenbach DC, MCS-P, CPMA

    Seeing the abysmal lack of integrity-rich, clinically experienced, continually trained doctors in the chiropractic profession, I leveraged two decades of patient care skills—diagnosing and training over 4,800 patients—into a 4-part course curriculum. I co-founded TLC4Superteams, a coaching and educational organization, serving for 20 years over 1,500 doctors and support staff practicing in clinics throughout North America.

    This dynamic duo will dive into real life experience with an Office of Inspector General (OIG) audit. Sharing with attendees the story of actual events that she lived through and what she learned that you must know. Compliance is a necessary part of doing business in healthcare. Providers must respect the boundaries of fraud, waste, and abuse. In this presentation, Dr. Colleen will establish what it means to have an effective OIG Compliance program and share what you may experience when you do not take the time to implement one.

    6. Apply the seven elements of a compliance program to your practice
    7. Develop an action list to begin implementing an OIG compliance program for your clinic
