Stark and Anti-Kickback Statute Updates – Proposed New Regulations and Other Initiatives
As part of the Trump Administration’s “Regulatory Sprint to Coordinated Care,” CMS and the OIG recently published proposed changes to the Stark Law’s regulatory exceptions, and the Anti-Kickback Statute’s safe harbors. The recommendations were applauded by many in the health care industry as an important step for the development of value-based reimbursement arrangements and coordinated care. The proposed Stark regulations also attempt to address thorny issues relating to fair market value, commercial reasonableness, volume or value, and technical noncompliance. The Trump administration has indicated that it plans to review the health care industry’s feedback and monitor implementation to determine if more expansive regulatory changes are needed. This session will discuss the scope and impact of the proposed Stark and AKS regulations, and consider what lies ahead for these sentinel compliance laws.
