Reporting Privacy Concerns

  • You can raise your concerns without fear of being disciplined or terminated for doing the right thing. Just tell the truth, as you understand it. MEDIC policies prohibit disciplinary or retaliatory actions against employees who make good faith reports.
  • Swift action is taken to investigate good faith reports of non-compliance. If errors are identified, corrective actions will be taken. Employees found in violation of our compliance policy may be subject to disciplinary action, up to and including termination. Serious compliance violations may also result in criminal or monetary penalties.

There are multiple options for getting assistance with compliance questions or concerns. If you’re making a good faith report on a compliance concern, you’re protected.
