Overview:
This webinar will provide a detailed analysis of recent enforcement initiatives and significant legal actions pursued by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Office of Inspector General (HHS-OIG) and its partner agencies throughout 2024.
The session will also include a concise review of the Anti-Kickback Statute (AKS), an examination of its safe harbor provisions—with particular attention to the newly proposed safe harbor for coordinated care and value-based arrangements—and a discussion of relevant OIG Advisory Opinions and pivotal AKS case law from the current year.
Why you should Attend:
This program is critically important for healthcare executives, physicians, and practice managers who bill and receive remuneration from federal healthcare programs such as Medicare, Medicaid, and TriCare. A series of recent legal actions underscores that many standard commercial practices are considered unlawful under stringent federal healthcare fraud and abuse statutes.
Hospital leadership and clinical providers should be acutely aware of the government's increasing reliance on the Anti-Kickback Statute as a primary enforcement mechanism. A significant and related risk is that AKS violations, alongside infractions of the Stark Law (the federal physician self-referral prohibition), are increasingly used as the legal basis for lawsuits filed under the Federal False Claims Act, which can lead to severe penalties.
In this webinar, you will gain a clear understanding of the core components of the AKS, including the critical exceptions and safe harbors that provide a defense against enforcement. This knowledge is vital as regulatory scrutiny of healthcare fraud and abuse continues to intensify.
