In 2016, employers should expect to see US Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) fines that are as much as 80 percent higher than in the past as a result of a budget provision signed into law by President Obama that will significantly increase OSHA fines for the first time since 1990. Fines will place greater emphasis on getting OSHA compliance right. In this program, OSHA experts will address the agency’s new penalties and provide a checklist for specific compliance steps that employers can use to better insulate their companies from those penalties. Presenters will address OSHA’s increased focus on new recordkeeping and reporting responsibilities; temporary works; Voluntary Safety and Health Program management guidelines; workplace violence; and joint employer responsibility.

Any entities that plan to invest or are already invested in digital health companies, entities that contract with them, or providers that offer in-house telehealth modalities must be aware of the significant regulatory oversight the industry faces. This article discusses the US Department of Health and Human Services' Office of Inspector General's Special Fraud Alert published on July 20, 2022, which was the same day the US Department of Justice announced a massive fraud takedown, targeting telemedicine providers and physicians that netted criminal charges against 36 defendants in schemes that allegedly defrauded the government out of more than $1.2 billion.
