Corporate Compliance Enhances Confidential Reporting System

To keep pace with Baptist Memorial Health Care’s continued growth, Corporate Compliance recently initiated a new approach to managing all calls and online submissions to the Baptist TIPS Hotline/Helpline (877‑BMH‑TIPS, or 877-264-8477) and online form. Operators with Ethico, a compliance solutions company that serves the health care industry, began answering these calls and online submissions on July 7.

This new process, which includes the assignment of tracking numbers to all calls, will help ensure an immediate response to all submissions. Reports can be made anonymously or on the record, and all reports will be handled confidentially to the extent allowed by law.

“Baptist Memorial Health Care’s Corporate Compliance department is committed to fostering a workplace where team members feel empowered to share their concerns with the confidence they will be reviewed and addressed with fairness and care,” said Rita Cunningham, director of Investigations and Regulatory Compliance.

The switch to the new process is designed to be seamless for anyone reporting concerns, but anyone with a question may contact Cunningham at 901-227-5921 or Sarah Branch, Compliance and Legal Resolution analyst, at 901-227-5922.
