Catherine Short converses with Rachel V. Rose, JD, MBA, Principal with Rachel V. Rose – Attorney at Law,<br />

P.L.L.C., Houston, TX, on the topic of “The New AKS and Stark Laws Final Rules – Key Take-Aways.” On<br />

November 20, 2020, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) issued a Final Rule related to<br />

the Medicare Physician Self-Referral Law (Stark Law). Nearly simultaneously, the Office of the Inspector<br />

General, Department of Health and Human Services (HHS-OIG), released a Final Rule, which amends<br />

various safe harbors to the Federal Anti-Kickback Statute (AKS). The changes appear to be based, in large<br />

part, on value-based healthcare delivery and payment systems. On this episode, we will highlight the key<br />

changes, along with the similarities and differences in the language between the two Final Rules, examine<br />

the new AKS safe harbors and Stark Law exceptions, compare and contrast critical items found in both<br />

Final Rules, and appreciate the risks of non-compliance.<br />
