How we help with HHS & Medicare Compliance

R.J. Hedges & Associates has a dedicated team, devoted to providing complete turnkey healthcare compliance programs for our clients. 

We offer easy-to-use Policy and Procedure Manuals and Programs that contain all requirements for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and Medicare Quality Standards:

We Help: Pharmacies, Health Care Facilities, and Business Associates

Independent/Community Pharmacies

Keeping up to date with compliance to meet insurance, state, and federal requirements can feel like a second job. R.J Hedges & Associates can help you no matter how small or large your pharmacy is.   Trying to navigate USP <800>, needing items to satisfy a credentialing request, trying to add an extra revenue stream with immunizations?  We can help with all of those!

Health Care Facilities

Many facilities attempt to establish policies & procedures on their own.  With regulatory changes happening, sometimes daily, it can be difficult to keep up to date.  R.J. Hedges & Associates can support your facility: DME locations, O&P shops, doctors offices, and mastectomy boutiques.

Business Associates

Do you work with Health Care Facilities and have access to PHI? If so, you are required by law to have a HIPAA program in place.  R.J. Hedges can provide easy to follow and implement Policies & Procedures for Computer software companies, group purchasing organizations, accounting firms, drug wholesalers, DME suppliers, and many others. 

Who We Are

At R.J. Hedges & Associates we treat our clients the same way we treat our employees: with respect, dignity, and honesty. We consider our employees and clients as members of the family. We founded our company on our strong beliefs and moral standards to make federal compliance obtainable, reasonable, and achievable for our clients. We strive to keep our clients informed of the ever changing healthcare regulatory environment by providing newsletters and bulletins to keep them up to date, webinars for clarification, and task lists to help manage requirements while still taking care of patients.
