Welcome to Outreach’s Compliance page!
Integrity is a core value at Outreach and we believe that maintaining compliance is essential for the well-being and trust of our clients and the integrity of our services.
Our Corporate Compliance program applies to all Outreach employees, independent contractors, interns, volunteers, third-party vendors, partners, the governing body, corporate officers, and any other stakeholders who complete any aspect of our operations and continuum of care.
What is Compliance?
Compliance is the act of following all relevant laws, regulations and policies, with the goal of identifying, addressing and/or preventing incidences of waste, fraud or abuse. This is accomplished through a robust, effective and transparent series of quality assurance policies outlined in our compliance policies.
Reviewed and updated annually, our Compliance Program policies emphasize:
- Prevention and detection of wrongdoing, questionable activities or practices.
- Immediate reporting and timely investigation
- Timely correction of the identified issue.
