Staying Up To Date With The Latest OSHA Requirements
You want to be a safe environment for both your staff and your patients, and OSHA compliance is a big part of those efforts. Even with a dedication to adherence, however, you could still come up short. In the OSHA world, things can change, and staying up to date is both a legal need and a good idea.
For dental providers, there are some areas in safety compliance that are key. These include bloodborne pathogen training and safety, appropriate handling and usage of hazardous chemicals, and personal protective equipment (PPE) adherence. Without the right care into any of these concerns, you could wind up causing some real harm. OSHA compliance is an essential part of your profession, so if you are falling behind, talk to our team about effective compliance services. We work with a dedicated OSHA/DEA compliance team to help you have the right tools for the job.
Exclusion Database Checks Are A Key Part Of Compliance
Federal and state healthcare programs need to identify fraud and waste, and one of the tools that they have to do this is an exclusion database. These document the individuals or companies that have been excluded from participation, and dental providers need to run monthly checks to ensure that they are not part of (or working with) an excluded entity.
There are stiff penalties for going around these restrictions, up to a staggering penalty of $10,000 per day. By performing background checks and adhering to your compliance needs, you can avoid a costly fine. We have a helpful list of resources available for 42 different states, and if you have further questions, reach out to our office.
