With this unprecedented funding and varying degrees taxpayer skepticism, how can the oversight provisions of the bill be made a reality? We’ll discuss:

  • The importance of using the government funds in their intended manner, and the role of the false claims act.
  • The oversight board and their budget, including the responsibilities of investigators, attorneys and accountants.
  • Guidelines for establishing whistleblower policies and educating employees.

Learn how the package’s oversight provisions may call for companies benefiting from government funding to enter into an environment of increased accountability and scrutiny.
