To assure  all our affilated corporation operations are being conducted in compliance with applicable law and the highest ethical standards, Fort Hudson has established a Corporate Compliance Program under the direction of Nasar Islam, Associate Administrator, who will also function as Corporate Compliance Officer.

Why is compliance important to me? Compliance affects everyone. You are expected to

• Carry out your duties with honesty and integrity
• “Do the right thing” when carrying out your job duties.
• Learn and understand the laws and regulations that apply to your position to follow those requirements.

How do I report concerns? Report suspected compliance violations such as improper coding or billing by an employee, contractor, or agent of Fort Hudson Health System, Inc.  to your immediate supervisor. If you do not feel comfortable contacting your supervisor, please contact: Nasar Islam, Corporate Compliance Officer.  You may use our CONFIDENTIAL reporting hotline @ 518-747-9047 Ext. 261 OR you may use the online “Click & Report” form below.

If you contact us by phone, you do not have to identify yourself. Please provide us enough information to initiate an investigation. Specific names, dates, times, locations, and issue-specific facts will allow us to conduct a full investigation.  If you contact us via online, please note that all fields of the form must be completed for sucessful submission.

We are committed to maintaining your confidentiality which is consistent with existing Fort Hudson Health System’s policies.

• Fort Hudson supports issue reporting and employee involvement through no-retaliation policy.
