Buttner, Hammock & Company Presents at Oncology Managers of Florida Fall Conference

Sept. 26, 2011 - PRLog -- Naples, Florida - Managers and leaders in the medical industry came together September 9th and 10th for the Oncology Managers of Florida ("OMF") Fall Conference to discuss updates and trends in the healthcare industry.  

After presenting at the OMF Spring conference in Orlando, Michael Hammock was invited back to present "Fraud and Embezzlement in the Workplace", a presentation discussing the ways to identify and prevent theft in physician practices.  With a struggling economy, this topic hit right at home with many of the attendees.  Workplace embezzlement is a topic that is all too often overlooked.

Michael Hammock, CPA, of Jacksonville, FL is a partner at Buttner, Hammock & Company ("BHC") and a Certified Fraud Examiner.  Before merging his practice with Edward W. Buttner, IV, Hammock held the position of Audit Manager at the “Big 4” accounting firm, Ernst & Young. Mike is a member of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners and the Florida Institute of Certified Public Accountants.

"The OMF conferences are packed with important information concerning the healthcare industry and how to manage your practice effectively", says Hammock.  Other topics at the conference included: How to Excel as a Manager, Clinical Trial Management - Regulatory and Billing Compliances, and Reimbursement, Governmental and Legislative Issues.  The 2012 OMF Spring Conference will be held in St. Augustine, Florida at World Gold Village, March 2nd and 3rd.
