University of Nevada School of MedicineChief Compliance / Quality Improvement Officer
Dec. 2011 - Apr. 2024Reno/Las Vegas, NevadaI began work building a culture of compliance at the University of Nevada School of Medicine in 2011. I wrote policies, provided compliance training, performed investigations and audits, responded to OSHA and HIPAA complaints, performed attorney work product, worked on the policy committee, compliance committee, graduate medical education committee, and audit committee, and provided compliance support to the clinical operations committee, and the clinical practice board of directors. I began a "phased-in retirement" contract in 2021." In addition, I am leading the revision of the compliance department to focus more on research and academic compliance than clinical activities, which have moved to an affiliated health plan.
