Introduction to Fraud, Waste and Abuse in the U.S. Healthcare Delivery System

The concept of healthcare delivery is complex and intersects at three critical points. Understanding how healthcare fraud, waste, and abuse (FWA) affects each of these key intersection points is critical to improving the integrity of the U.S. healthcare system. This course will examine healthcare FWA within healthcare delivery specifically from the patient-provider-payer perspective. By examining these three points of intersection, students will gain a more comprehensive understanding of why healthcare delivery is susceptible to FWA and key areas of consideration as healthcare reform continues to evolve.

This course is an independent course and you may complete it on your own time over the next six months.
