Enterprise Risk Management Handbook for Healthcare Entities addresses the need for and implementation of a comprehensive risk management process and plan that encompasses the entire enterprise and crosses departmental barriers. The coverage begins with an overview of enterprise risk management (ERM) and its evolution, including a discussion of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The authors provide guidance on structuring an ERM system, as well as insight on risk financing methods. They delineate how organizations can manage risk in various settings, including contract management, claims management, environmental compliance, human research, peer review and credentialing, due diligence in business transactions, consent to treatment and numerous others. The publication also includes insight on the impact that electronic health record (EHR) systems, combined with the advent of e-discovery rules, will have on traditional documentation issues.
