Our Mission

The UTMB Office of Institutional Compliance was established to:

  • Develop standards and procedures to ensure UTMB's compliance with all State and Federal laws and regulations, such as Medicare and Medicaid.


  • Establish compliance awareness and responsibility in every employee through general and specific compliance training.


  • Monitor activities to ensure that policies and procedures established for compliance are effective.


  • Participate in any external audit review process, resolve compliance issues and respond to legal or administrative inquiries related to compliance issues or audits.


  • Provide advice and direction to senior management, staff and employees to maximize compliance with statutory, regulatory and case law requirements.


  • To fulfill its mission and serve the needs of the UTMB community, the Office of Institutional Compliance is divided into two parts: Institutional Compliance and Health Care Compliance.
