Compliance
Equitable Social Solutions ® has a commitment to compliance. It is important to us that we provide a principled and compassionate approach to every single individual we serve.
Equitable Social Solutions has a compliance program that requires our employees to do their jobs the right way every day. The program is modeled after the Office of Inspector General’s Seven Elements of an Effective Compliance Program. We screen all potential employees to ensure they meet background screening requirements and are not ineligible to participate in federal healthcare programs. We distribute our Code of Conduct book during an employee’s first days on the job. We want our employees to understand their responsibility to not only adhere to these principles of conduct, but also actively participate in and promote compliance within their workplace. We are committed to the ideals of our mission and our Code of Conduct. We are equally committed to ensuring that our actions consistently reflect our words.
We expect all of our colleagues’ actions to reflect the high standards set forth in the Code of Conduct. However, no Code of Conduct can substitute for our own internal sense of ethics, honesty and integrity.
If our employees or contractors find themselves in a situation that “does not feel right,” we encourage them to speak to a supervisor, the next level supervisor, business line management or the compliance department. If an employee does not feel comfortable talking to someone within the company about the issue, he or she can call an external toll-free Compliance Action Line at 866.293.3863 to report concerns 24 hours a day. Callers may remain anonymous when they report their concerns. Employees and contractors can also report anonymously through our website.
Equitable’s Development department pursues growth through acquisitions, management contracts, mergers, requests for information (RFI), requests for proposal (RFP) and new business opportunities.
Request for Proposal (RFP) & Request for Information (RFI)
Equitable Social Solutions pursues opportunities in each line of business by responding to public and private sector Requests for Proposal (RFP) & Requests for Information (RFI). Equitable responds to requests based on our ability to deliver services and support to those who need it, and assist them in reaching their highest level of independence, with the resources available to a nationwide provider.
Merger & Acquisition
Many existing providers offer services to the same population of clientele as Equitable Social Solutions. We engage potential acquisition and merger candidates in both new, and existing markets whose patrons we can best serve and where financial criteria, geographic range, ease-of-integration and growth potential match our goals.
Management Contracts
As a nationwide company, Equitable has the capability to operate an existing for-profit or non-profit organization to ensure the quality of care for patients is always first. Equitable can assist in day-to-day operations allowing leadership teams to remain mission-focused. This is most common in cases where a provider finds that certain operations are no longer aligned with the core mission of their organization or in cases where an organization prefers to no longer serve as a provider.
