K&L Gates Triage: CMS 60-Day Overpayment Rule & OIG Self-Disclosures

This is the second segment in a two-part series about the CMS 60-Day Overpayment Rule. This segment describes the Self-Disclosure Protocol of the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services, Office of Inspector General (“OIG”), which enables providers and suppliers to report and return overpayments arising out of violations of the Anti-Kickback Statute. The webinar also discusses the reporting obligations and potential liability of a provider or supplier having “sufficient knowledge” to “identify” overpayments caused by an illegal kickback scheme.
