Roetzel HealthLaw HotSpot® is a podcast and YouTube channel for physicians and health professionals that covers the legal issues and trends that affect the health care industry.
On this episode of the HealthLaw HotSpot, host Ericka Adler is joined by fellow Roetzel shareholder Heather Renée Adams, for an in-depth discussion on how healthcare practices should handle any claims they receive related to discrimination, retaliation or harassment within their practice. Ericka and Heather’s discussion focuses on the types of claims that can arise in the workplace, best practices for handling those allegations and what to do when an employee takes the complaint to a federal agency like the EEOC. Heather also provides best practice tips for handling claims when escalated to the agency level, the importance of making sure practice policies and employee handbooks are up to date and consistent, as well as alternatives to avoid ending up in front of an agency like the EEOC.
