On March 23, 2010, the President
signed into law H.R. 3590, the Patient Protection and Affordable
Care Act (Affordable Care Act), Public Law 111-148. Section 6401 of
the law establishes a number of important payment safeguard
provisions, several of which have been incorporated into CMS
Proposed Rule 6028, entitled "Medicare, Medicaid, and Children's
Health Insurance Programs (CHIP); Additional Screening
Requirements, Application Fees, Temporary Enrollment Moratoria,
Payment Suspensions and Compliance Plans for Providers and
Suppliers," and published in the Federal Register on September 23,
2010. The provisions are designed to improve the integrity of the
Medicare, Medicaid, and CHIP programs so as to reduce fraud, waste
and abuse.
