The concept of Fair Market Value (FMV) is a challenge because it is difficult to define. And yet compliance with anti-kickback safe harbors, Stark exceptions, and IRS regulations often hinges on whether FMV and commercial reasonableness can be demonstrated. Compliance professionals, health care attorneys, CFOs, and others on the front line of transactions between health systems and physicians need to be familiar with valuation and the common traits of FMV so that effective safeguards are developed.

In this session, our presenters will link the fair market value and commercial reasonableness concepts in the health care regulatory environment. Topics will include applications from Stark, the Anti-Kickback statute and the Internal Revenue Code. Practical techniques and processes will be discussed on how to establish and document FMV, as well as key areas for compliance officers to monitor to ensure compliance in this critical area. Hot topics and enforcement developments will be addressed in this 90-minute program.

You'll learn:

  • Conflicting concepts of FMV and commercial reasonableness and how to reconcile them including Stark Law and exceptions, Anti-Kickback safe harbors, excess benefit transactions and private inurement
  • A practical approach for establishing and documenting FMV and commercial reasonableness
  • Techniques for monitoring impacted arrangements and ensuring compliance with relevant tax-exempt, Stark, and Anti-Kickback Statute requirements
  • More on core transactional and payment areas such as physician compensation arrangements, joint-ventures, management and professional services, consulting arrangements and honorariums, and non-monetary and incidental benefits.

Who should attend:

Compliance professionals, health care attorneys, CFOs, medical staff leaders, recruiters, and professionals who need to understand the basis for limitations in payments to physicians, and the implications to a health system.
