CMS has released a list of teaching hospital “covered recipients” to which payments and other transfers of value must be reported by applicable drug and device manufacturers under the ACA Physician Payment Sunshine Act Final Rule, as discussed in a posting on our Life Sciences Legal Update blog. The posting also discusses industry efforts to obtain CMS clarification on various outstanding questions related to the reporting requirements. In addition, CMS has announced a May 22 National Provider Call on the Sunshine Act reporting requirements, directed to physicians and teaching hospitals and covering the Final Rule, key dates, the role of covered recipients, and resources available to covered recipients.
