Why should you attend: Balanced Budget Act authorized the imposition of CMPs against providers that employ or enter into contracts with excluded persons to provide items or services payable by Federal health care programs. This authority parallels the CMP for health maintenance organizations that employ or contract with excluded individuals. If a health care provider arranges or contracts (by employment or otherwise) with a person that the provider knows or should know is excluded by OIG, the provider may be subject to CMP liability if the excluded person provides services payable, directly or indirectly, by a Federal health care program. OIG may impose CMPs of up to $10,000 for each item or service furnished by the excluded person for which Federal program payment is sought, as well as an assessment of up to three times the amount claimed, and program exclusion. A provider could be subject to CMP liability if an excluded person participates in any way in the furnishing of items or services that are payable by a Federal health care program. Attend this webinar to learn what you can to do to avoid unnecessary penalties.
