This CLE webinar will guide healthcare counsel through the Stark Law, the Anti-Kickback Statute (AKS), and the Civil Monetary Penalty Law (CMP) final rules. The panel will discuss how these changes will impact healthcare providers and others in the healthcare industry.

Description

On Nov. 20, 2020, the Department of Health and Human Services published the long-awaited and highly anticipated final rules revising the regulations related to the Stark, AKS, and CMP Laws. The final rules provide a much-needed framework for protecting certain value-based arrangements that incentivize care coordination, quality of care and cost containment. They also propose helpful new exceptions and safe harbors and clarify interpretations of current existing regulations and key definitions, including the “Big 3” fair market value (FMV), commercial reasonableness, and volume or value standards.

These changes should ultimately reduce the compliance burden for providers once the final rules take effect on Jan. 19, 2021, with the exception of group practice profit sharing rules that are effective Jan. 1, 2022. This added flexibility is more important now than it has ever been as the industry continues to navigate the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Healthcare organizations will need to move quickly to react and adapt to the interpretations and positions taken by CMS and OIG.

Listen as our authoritative panel of healthcare attorneys examines the new changes to the Stark, Anti-Kickback, and CMP Laws. The panel will discuss what these changes mean for healthcare providers and others in the healthcare industry.
