If the company isn’t willing to “comply” it doesn’t matter how many “compliance officers” you hire.
Who would want to go to work for a company:
1. on the chopping block
2. has been in serious financial difficulty for 3 or more years!
3. blows through compliance officers like kids thru bubble gum
4. who has failed to even want to comply with the Corporate Integrity Agreement they are under. (see the Auditors Report for 2009 and 2010 in the below Sales Agreement link.
Here is a Sales Agreement between the entities to the new CSHM,LLC in 2011. That not would be, old FORBA, not new FORBA, but FORBA III. It’s a real page turner.
