NEW GUIDE TO STARK RULES PRE-PUBLICATION ANNOUNCEMENT
WASHINGTON DC, USA -- HEALTHCARE UPDATE NEWS SERVICE(TM) - JUNE 16, 2004: Atlantic Information Services, Inc., www.aishealth.com, publisher of Report on Medicare Compliance and Managed Care Week announces its upcoming publication, A Guide to Complying With Stark Physician Self-Referral Rules. This comprehensive looseleaf service will help health care professionals piece together and understand the extremely complex Stark rules, their impact on a wide range of business deals, and the numerous gray areas that still exist. http://www.aishealth.com/Products/staEBPG.html.
The new Stark rules on physician compensation and investment take effect on July 26, 2004, and the financial risks are enormous for those who fail to comply. In this second phase of Stark self-referral regulations, HHS has "simplified" physician deals by issuing another hundred pages of regulations. The March 26 rulemaking is a behemoth of new exceptions, expansions of existing exceptions, and clarifications of the first phase of the regulation.
To understand what is required, you need to weave together 1998's proposed rules, 2001's first-phase rules, and HHS's new March 26 regulations. Or you need ...
A Guide to Complying With Stark Self-Referral Rules, a new resource for physicians and medical group managers, hospital and health systems executives, health plan managers, and providers of 11 different "designated health services."
Written by a team of experienced health care attorneys from the law firm of McDermott, Will & Emery LLC, this valuable service features:
- Easy-to-follow explanations of the prohibitions and exceptions
- 14 chapters devoted to the special Stark interests of different stakeholders (e.g., medical groups, hospitals, clinical labs, health plans, etc.)
- Summaries of all Stark Advisory Opinions issued by the OIG
- Copies of regulations (which are cited throughout) and other formal documents
