HSL 4200 Regulatory Affairs
(formerly HSL 420)
Health care regulatory agencies monitor health care practitioners and facilities, provide information about industry changes, promote safety and ensure legal compliance and quality services. Federal, state and local regulatory agencies often establish rules and regulations for the health care industry, and their oversight is mandatory. Some agencies, such as those for accreditation, require voluntary participation but are important because they provide rankings or certification of quality. This course will investigate the many regulatory bodies that influence health care policy.
