Compliance Hotline

The Medical College of Georgia and the Office of Institutional Audit and Compliance (OIAC) in conjunction with the Medical College of Georgia Health, Inc. and the Physicians Practice Group have a 24-hour hotline number that you may call to report any complaints or concerns you may have relating to compliance issues.  The toll free number to call is:

(800) 576-6623

This confidential phone line can be used for concerns you may have about any kind of activities that may be suspect or that you have questions about.  This could include, but not limited to: conflicts of interest, patient health information, receiving something of value in exchange for purchasing a service or product, time and expense abuses, research misconduct, and student and/or employee privacy issues. The Hotline provides you the opportunity to communicate your concerns with MCG’s OIAC.  If you prefer, you can remain anonymous and will be protected from retaliatory actions.

In order to research your concern, the OIAC will need some basic information.  This basic information includes:

  • A description of the concern
  • Who is involved
  • Where and when the incident took place
  • Your name and contact number (if you are willing to share this information)
If you prefer, you may report your concern using the OIAC email address, audit_compliance@mcg.edu or contact Christine Adams, Compliance and Privacy Coordinator, .  When using the email service you will need to provide the basic information listed above.  Please be aware that when using the email address your concern may not remain anonymous.  However, the OIAC will maintain the confidentiality of the individual reporting the issue to the best of our ability.
