Overview:
This webinar will provide a detailed analysis of recent enforcement initiatives and case developments pursued by the HHS Office of Inspector General (OIG) and its allied law enforcement agencies in 2024.
The session will also include a concise review of the Anti-Kickback Statute (AKS), an examination of its safe harbor provisions—with a specific focus on the newly proposed safe harbor for coordinated care and value-based arrangements—and a discussion of pertinent OIG Advisory Opinions and significant AKS case law from the current year.
Why you should Attend:
This program is essential for healthcare executives, physicians, and practice managers who bill and receive payment from federal healthcare programs such as Medicare, Medicaid, and TriCare. A series of recent legal actions demonstrates that many common business practices are considered unlawful under stringent federal healthcare fraud and abuse statutes.
Hospital leadership and clinical providers should be deeply concerned about the government's increasing reliance on the Anti-Kickback Statute as a primary enforcement tool. Of equal concern is the fact that AKS violations, alongside infractions of the Stark Law (the physician self-referral prohibition), are frequently used as the legal foundation for lawsuits filed under the Federal False Claims Act.
During 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 actions. This knowledge is vital as regulatory scrutiny of healthcare fraud and abuse intensifies.
