To recap, our team provided an overview of these historic changes before diving into new rules regarding beneficiary inducement and value-based arrangements. We’ve also provided two comparison charts – one on the AKS and the Beneficiary Inducements CMP and another on the Stark Law – that offer an easy-to-read comparison between the current, proposed, and final regulations. Today, we are taking a look at changes to existing AKS safe harbors and Stark Law exceptions, and, an extra add-on: a new Stark Exception for Limited Remuneration to a Physician. Note that we plan to cover changes to the safe harbor and exception for donations of electronic health records items and services in a separate post, along with the new safe harbor and exception for donations of cybersecurity technology.
