Program Integrity Rules
Due to changes in the industry and newly implemented Program Integrity Rules (PIR) regulations, most for-profit educational institutions have re-assessed business approach and employee compensation and how employees are compensated/recognized for efforts and contributions to business outcomes. From a compliance stand point, what are the most effective way(s)to audit and regulate employee compensation to prevent implications with PIR? Is there a specific guideline to test or quickly identify potential PIR concerns?

The Dept of Ed put out a couple of items to assist with adherence to the new regulation. They outlined a two part test, in the PowerPoint presentation referenced (#25) and I have also attached a link to the Dear Colleague letter which also referenced guidelines. http://www.ifap.ed.gov/dpcletters/attachments/GEN1105.pdf www.ifap.ed.gov/presentations/.../ ...

Thank you Traci. This information has been very helpful and insightful. It is a faily new topic for me and interesting. The company I work for has implemented compenesation guidelines based on core values which have been fairly embraced by many of our employees. Thanks for the link and supporting documentation.
