The OIG Proposes Revisions to the Safe Harbors Under the Anti-Kickback Statute, and to the Civil Monetary Penalties Rules on Beneficiary Inducements and Gainsharing.

On October 3, 2014, the Office of Inspector General published a proposed rule to amend the safe harbors under the Anti-Kickback Statute, as well as to revise the definition of “remuneration” under the Civil Monetary Penalties regulations and add a gainsharing CMP provision into the regulations. If adopted, the final rule would have a major impact on the Anti-Kickback Statute and Civil Monetary Penalties regulations. The proposed rule, 79 FR 59717, may be found here.

Please check back for a complete summary of the proposed rule…coming soon to the HLP Blog.
