This study aims to identify business competencies required of healthcare compliance professionals for the purpose of developing university-based curricula for the field. A survey was distributed to members of the Health Care Compliance Association. Information was captured on respondents’ ranking of required competencies for the field. Required competencies fell into four general categories: 1. Specific healthcare compliance knowledge; 2. Skills needed to implement the requirements of the profession; 3. Business leadership skills; and 4. Traditional business skills. The data provide a useful foundation to design and implement a university-based curriculum for the demanding and complex healthcare compliance field.
