After reviewing the Office of Inspector General (OIG) Supplemental Compliance Guidelines for Hospitals I have found that there is great purpose for a compliance document in a healthcare facility. The purpose of this document in a healthcare facility is to be able to act as a guideline for healthcare facilities to consider, develop, and implement a compliance plan that meets federal regulations. Healthcare facilities have these compliance documents to help to cover and verify all that all services ordered for a patient were reasonable and necessary services for the patient to be treated accordingly and without fail. These compliance documents need to be retained to reflect that the healthcare facility’s efforts comply with Federal health care

The following day, SFC Collins came into our office and formally introduced himself. It quickly became apparent to me that he was not like any of the other leaders I had encountered up to this point in my career. The first thing that struck me was how genuine he was and that he truly seemed to care about our section not just as soldiers, but as people. He knew the events that had led up to his becoming our new NCOIC, but showed no indication that it had affected or influenced his judgment of who we were or how we operated. After the initial orientation, he started asking about our counselings and began building our team foundation from there. By the end of that first meeting, I already knew he was honest, fair, competent and above all, a true leader.

Earlier in the day, Candee met with her supervisor, Effie Mogul, to address her absence from her desk, which Effie was informed by staff was for over 30 minutes (from approximately 8:45 am to past 9:15 am). During their meeting, Effie agreed to allow Candee to make-up the time. Candee felt that the duration should be no more than 20 minutes; Candee also felt that because she was speaking to a co-worker in the building’s lobby there should be no lost time, so Candee and Effie came to my office to discuss both arguments in further detail.

My first disturbing encounter with SFC Wilson was in November 2016, we were housed in lodging across from one another and he made the remark that I should make sure my door is secure and rattled off my key door lock number. After that incident, I shoved the sofa that was in my room up against the door every night until I moved to permanent housing. I was very relieved that I would be away from him so that I could sleep better at night. The second incident was during the first course of the 42A30, SFC Wilson introduced himself to the instructors and made it known to them that he did not know what he was doing and he would need assistance from all of us. He would ask my opinion about issues or situations that he was assisting in creating
