It is to be written in APA format, with a cover page and reference page of at least five references.
Your work should follow the conventions of Standard English (correct grammar, punctuation, etc.). Your writing should be well ordered, logical and unified, as well as original and insightful. Furthermore, all sources used should be properly cited using APA formatting.
Be sure to validate your information with course material.

Module 03 Content
Are you ready to present the policies for your two compliance plans in a way that all employees will understand at a large medical facility where you are the Compliance Officer?
In 4-page paper describe the policies for each of the two compliance plans.
Break each policy section into 2 pages each.
Remember to support your policies for the two plans with a total of three research sources, cited at the end in APA format. (That’s 1-2 research sources per plan).
Then, summarize your plan in a 5-8 slide PowerPoint presentation.
Polices you should consider covering for each plan come under the key compliance elements:
Compliance Standards
High-Level (personal) Responsibility
Education
Communication
Monitoring/Auditing (for Safety)
Enforcement/Discipline
Response/Prevention
Look these over in your research, and then select just two of these key elements and write your policies under them for each of your two compliance plans. (Your policies for each plan can zero in on different key elements.)
Example:
A compliance plan about washing hands between patients might describe policies for High Level (personal) Responsibility and Monitoring/Auditing (for Safety)
A compliance plan about charging patients for Diabetes Management Education as a Physician Visit might describe policies for Compliance Standards and Enforcement/Discipline.
