CMS Requirements Sample Clauses
The CMS Requirements clause sets out the obligations and standards that must be met to comply with the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) regulations. This clause typically details the specific policies, procedures, and documentation that parties must maintain, such as adhering to billing practices, privacy rules, and quality reporting standards mandated by CMS. By clearly outlining these requirements, the clause ensures that all parties remain in compliance with federal healthcare regulations, thereby reducing the risk of penalties or loss of program participation.

CMS Requirements. (1) If CMS finds that the OPO has changed to such an extent that it no longer satisfies the requirements for OPO designation, CMS may de-certify the OPO and ▇▇- ▇▇▇▇▇ the OPO’s service area to be an open area. An OPO may appeal such a de-certification as set forth in § 486.314. The OPO’s service area is not opened for competition until the conclusion of the administrative appeals process.
(2) If CMS finds that the changed OPO continues to satisfy the require- ments for OPO designation, the period of designation of the changed OPO is the remaining portion of the 4-year term of the OPO that was reorganized. If more than one designated OPO is in- volved in the reorganization, the re- maining designation term is the long- est of the remaining periods unless CMS determines that a shorter period is in the best interest of the Medicare and Medicaid programs. The changed OPO must continue to meet the re- quirements for certification at § 486.303 throughout the remaining period. Re-Certification and De- Certification
