United States Code U.S. Code: Title 42 - THE PUBLIC HEALTH AND WELFARE

The following are ALL rules, proposed rules, and notices (chronologically) published in the Federal Register relating to 42 CFR Part 420 after this date.
2016-08-23; vol. 81 # 163 - Tuesday, August 23, 2016 81 FR 57554 - Request for Information: Inappropriate Steering of Individuals Eligible for or Receiving Medicare and Medicaid Benefits to Individual Market Plans
GPO FDSys XML | Text Additional Documents DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES, Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services Request for information. To be assured consideration, comments must be received at one of the addresses provided below, no later than 5 p.m. on September 22, 2016. 42 CFR Part 402, 420, and, 455 Summary This request for information seeks public comment regarding concerns about health care providers and provider-affiliated organizations steering people eligible for or receiving Medicare and/or Medicaid benefits to an individual market plan for the purpose of obtaining higher payment rates. CMS is concerned about reports of this practice and is requesting comments on the frequency and impact of this issue from the public. We believe this practice not only could raise overall health system costs, but could potentially be harmful to patient care and service coordination because of changes to provider networks and drug formularies, result in higher out-of-pocket costs for enrollees, and have a negative impact on the individual market single risk pool (or the combined risk pool in states that have chosen to merge their risk pools). We are seeking input from stakeholders and the public regarding the frequency and impact of this practice, and options to limit this practice.
2013-04-29; vol. 78 # 82 - Monday, April 29, 2013 78 FR 25013 - Medicare Program; Requirements for the Medicare Incentive Reward Program and Provider Enrollment
GPO FDSys XML | Text Additional Documents DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES, Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services Proposed rule. To be assured consideration, comments must be received at one of the addresses provided below, no later than 5 p.m. on June 28, 2013. 42 CFR Parts 405, 420, 424, and 498 Summary This proposed rule would revise the Incentive Reward Program provisions in § 420.405 and certain provider enrollment requirements in part 424, subpart P. The most significant of these revisions include: changing the Incentive Reward Program potential reward amount for information on individuals and entities who are or have engaged in acts or omissions which resulted in the imposition of a sanction from 10 percent of the overpayments recovered in the case or $1,000, whichever is less, to 15 percent of the final amount collected applied to the first $66,000,000 for the sanctionable conduct; expanding the instances in which a felony conviction can serve as a basis for denial or revocation of a provider or supplier's enrollment; if certain criteria are met, enabling us to deny enrollment if the enrolling provider, supplier, or owner thereof had an ownership relationship with a previously enrolled provider or supplier that had a Medicare debt; enabling us to revoke Medicare billing privileges if we determine that the provider or supplier has a pattern or practice of submitting claims for services that fail to meet Medicare requirements; and limiting the ability of ambulance suppliers to “backbill” for services performed prior to enrollment. We believe this proposed rule would—increase the incentive for individuals to report information on individuals and entities that have or are engaged in sanctionable conduct; improve our ability to detect new fraud schemes; and help us ensure that fraudulent entities and individuals do not enroll in or maintain their enrollment in the Medicare program.
