Webinar on Advanced FMV Compensation Issues For Stark Group Practices

Overview: This webinar will investigate Stark compliance and valuation implications unique to the group practice and direct employment models and will discuss recent legal developments that further illustrate these concepts.

Why should you Attend: Given the substantial awards and settlements in recent Stark Law enforcement actions, Stark Law compliance has become more than just a compliance issue: it is an enterprise risk management issue. Ensuring and documenting compliance with the hyper-technical requirements for being a Stark group practice is a prudent practice that will enhance defensibility in the event a group practice’s compensation arrangements are ever challenged. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has specifically noted in agency commentary that group practices that choose to take advantage of Stark’s special treatment should at all times be prepared to demonstrate compliance with the relevant statutory and regulatory standards. 

Areas Covered in the Session:

• Recognize the Stark group practice and direct employment regulatory requirements.
• Contrast, in basic terms, the requirements of the Stark group practice and bona fide employment models
• Identify compensation and valuation issues unique to the group practice model
• Recognize how recent settlements and cases may impact physician compensation planning and the formation of Stark group practices
