The University of Kentucky Chandler Medical Center adopted a Corporate Compliance Program in May 1998. The Compliance Program, which is led by Interim Compliance Officer R. Brett Short, has two primary goals:
  • First, to enhance and further demonstrate to our patients, the community, employees, staff, the government and third-party payors our commitment to honest and fair dealing;
  • Second, to centralize and intensify our efforts in preventing and detecting illegal, unethical or abusive conduct.

Accordingly, each of us at the UK Chandler Medical Center is obligated to report any conduct that we in good faith believe is illegal, unethical or abusive. You never will be penalized for raising an issue or voicing a concern when you do so in good faith. Failing to report such suspected misconduct can result in disciplinary action.

If you are not comfortable reporting suspected misconduct or making compliance-related inquiries to your supervisor, you can contact the compliance officer at (859) 323-6044 or the Comply-Line at 1-877-898-6072. The Comply-Line is a toll-free phone reporting service operated by an independent contractor hired by the Medical Center. The Comply-Line is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, every day of the year. Comply-Line reports, as well as those made directly to the Compliance Officer, can be made anonymously.
