On November 20, 2024—just in time for the season of giving—the Department of Health and Human Services Office of Inspector General (OIG) issued new compliance program guidance specifically targeted at Nursing Facilities (NFs). This Nursing Facility Industry Segment-Specific Compliance Program Guidance (NF ICPG) updates, but does not replace, the OIG’s prior guidance issued in 2000 and in 2008. In its NF ICPG, the OIG noted that these guidance documents would still be available on its website as archived resources that entities may want to consult as needed.
