MTM, Inc. announced today the formation of the Compliance Department as MTM moves forward in providing healthcare and transportation management nationwide. Led by newly appointed Director of Compliance, Tracy Conklin, the department will work closely with MTM’s Quality Management team to maintain effective internal controls in a proactive manner that promotes adherence to legal and ethical standards; develop solutions for policy and process improvement; and formalize a company-wide internal audit program. In addition, the Department will develop a focused Compliance and Ethics Training program, as well as a comprehensive Risk Assessment plan to prevent, deter, or detect fraud, waste, and abuse across all areas of MTM.
Tracy Conklin, Director of Compliance, joined MTM in the fall of 2013 working in our Client Services division as an Implementations Manager. Prior to coming to MTM, Tracy worked for the State of Kansas as a Policy Analyst and Program Manager in the Managed Care division of Medicaid.
