Book excerpt: Policymakers and program managers are continually seeking ways to improve accountability in achieving an entity's mission. A key factor in improving accountability in achieving an entity's mission is to implement an effective internal control system. An effective internal control system helps an entity adapt to shifting environments, evolving demands, changing risks, and new priorities. As programs change and entities strive to improve operational processes and implement new technology, management continually evaluates its internal control system so that it is effective and updated when necessary. Section 3512 (c) and (d) of Title 31 of the United States Code (commonly known as the Federal Managers' Financial Integrity Act (FMFIA)) requires the Comptroller General to issue standards for internal control in the federal government.

Book excerpt: From the creator of the popular website Ask a Manager and New York’s work-advice columnist comes a witty, practical guide to 200 difficult professional conversations—featuring all-new advice! There’s a reason Alison Green has been called “the Dear Abby of the work world.” Ten years as a workplace-advice columnist have taught her that people avoid awkward conversations in the office because they simply don’t know what to say. Thankfully, Green does—and in this incredibly helpful book, she tackles the tough discussions you may need to have during your career.

[Alison Green’s] advice boils down to the idea that you should be professional (even when others are not) and that communicating in a straightforward manner with candor and kindness will get you far, no matter where you work.”—Booklist (starred review) “The author’s friendly, warm, no-nonsense writing is a pleasure to read, and her advice can be widely applied to relationships in all areas of readers’ lives.

Download or read book Healthcare Financial Operations Manual for Independent Practice Associations written by James W. Karling and published by Wiley. This book was released on 2000-03-07 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Only recently, the physician setting up his own practice was considered an anachronism. And doctors loosely affiliated with an independent practice association (IPA) fared no better. Lacking capital, financial management, and the mechanisms for adequate medical and information system management, many IPAs around the country were coping with financial instability. From the outset, IPAs seemed doomed to obsolescence by the organizational efficiencies and superior resources of third-party payors. Yet, in the early 1990s, IPAs underwent a remarkable turnaround?building infrastructure, investing in MIS systems, and accepting risk?transforming themselves into genuine competitors in healthcare quality and efficiency with HMOs. In fact, IPAs have become an increasingly common healthcare delivery model, offering distinct advantages over other payors to physicians interested in the administrative gains and security of a group practice, while still retaining their autonomy. Healthcare Financial Operations Manual for Independent Practice Associations is the first comprehensive guide to setting up an IPA, detailing the many operational, legal, and logistical complexities of managing a physician-owned organization. Since controlling the financial and tax aspects of an IPA is critical to its survival, the Manual addresses an entire range of financial accounting concerns, including accounting concepts and methods for an IPA, internal control procedures, insurance issues, tax issues, policy guidance, and profit-making issues. Specific topics addressed include: How to manage and report primary, specialty, and inpatient care How to credential IPA providers How to negotiate contracts for single specialty and multispecialty IPAs Antitrust laws and IPAs?with a case study of a Florida IPA Why IPAs fail The book also clearly outlines how to acquire and negotiate a managed care contract and, with the help of its disk, provides a host of checklists, forms, and five sample contracts (not included in the book) that allow the user to chart his or her progress and get quickly up to speed on the essential paperwork. The Manual also provides hands-on advice on setting up an efficient computer system for an IPA, reflecting the acknowledged role of a first-rate information system in an IPA?s success. Offering candid, real-world guidance on setting up and successfully administering an IPA, Healthcare Financial Operations Manual for Independent Practice Associations is the complete reference to making an IPA work?for both doctor and patient.

He coauthored the IPA Association of America?s Financial Accounting Manual for IPAs. The IPA finally comes of age?in the first comprehensive guide to successfully managing one In only a few short years, independent practice associations (IPAs) have been able to transform themselves?shedding their image as a healthcare delivery system ranking a distant second to HMOs. Revitalized with a new infrastructure, improved medical management and information systems, and forms of risk assumption, the IPA is suddenly marketable. Expanded geographic coverage, lower overhead, and a wide range of specialties are only part of the reason. Its other advantages?practical and administrative?are detailed in the first comprehensive guide to setting one up and making it work: Healthcare Financial Operations Manual for Independent Practice Associations. Focusing largely on survival issues, the Manual addresses a host of key financial accounting concerns, including accounting concepts and methods for an IPA, internal control procedures, insurance issues, tax issues, policy guidance, and profit-making issues, including such specifics as: Management tools and reporting for primary, specialty, and inpatient care Credentialing IPA providers Risk pool accounting and auditing Also clearly outlined are tips on how to acquire and negotiate a managed care contract (for both single specialty and multispecialty IPAs) as well as hands-on advice on setting up an efficient, first-rate claims payment system. And the book?s disk provides a complete package of checklists, forms, and five sample contracts (not included in the book) essential to managing an IPA. The book also includes a summary "Physician and IPA Toolkit" appendix, offers cautionary advice on why IPAs fail, and describes the current status of antitrust laws and IPAs. Healthcare Financial Operations Manual for Independent Practice Associations is a complete primer to setting up what is now one of the most efficient and cost-effective healthcare delivery systems available, one that meets the bottom-line needs of both doctor and patient.
