OSHA mandates every employer keeps a record of every work related illness and injury. There are three forms: one describes the incident, the second describes the establishment, and the third describes the employee involved. Employers must keep these forms five years after the incident because it will be easier to update them. These forms are crucial to keeping the workplace safe and finding patterns of illness and injury.

An estimated 1.1 billion women worldwide will have experienced menopause by 2025. Symptoms like hot flashes, fatigue, and anxiety can be incredibly disruptive — and last for years. But despite its massive impact, little is being done to support those going through menopause in the workplace. In a recent survey, 70% of respondents said they have considered changing their employment to better manage symptoms — perhaps because only 8% received significant support from their employer related to meno

With the hospice carve-in to Medicare Advantage, MAO audits will join the list. The recent pause in audits as a result of the COVID pandemic hints at increased activity as the pandemic wanes.
