03 Nov 20
3:45 PM - 4:45 PM

Tracks: Legislative, Regulatory and Legal

While Capitol Hill and CMS have been dealing with the many issues related to managing the COVID-19 pandemic, policymakers still have their "normal" legislative and regulatory issues to manage. Congress will continue to pass laws, and CMS will continue to issue regulations that affect DME suppliers. This year, CMS has a proposed payment rule focusing solely on DMEPOS issues. In this program, you will get an "inside the beltway" perspective on what to expect from Capitol Hill and CMS. Among other topics, we will review Congressional activity affecting the DME community, CMS's annual payment rule for DMEPOS suppliers, competitive bidding, and other regulatory issues impacting your business. Equally important, we will discuss how DME suppliers can take steps to prepare for these anticipated legislative and regulatory developments.
