3.Exclusion list screening means:

NobleCare checks whether patients have been excluded from services NobleCare checks federal databases monthly to ensure no employee is excluded from government healthcare programs NobleCare screens incoming referrals from physicians Only new employees are screened at hire

4.The best reason to report a compliance concern even if you're not 100% certain is:

You can get a financial reward under the False Claims Act It protects you if the situation later turns out to be a violation The agency needs your report to meet its regulatory requirements It allows you to involve law enforcement directly

5.Scope creep — gradually performing tasks outside your assignment — is a compliance risk because:

It only matters if the patient complains It can expose you to liability for performing tasks you are not authorized or qualified to perform It results in overtime pay that the agency must approve It is only a risk for skilled nursing tasks, not personal care
