Bill Horton, a partner in the Birmingham office and co-leader of the Healthcare Industry Team, was quoted in the Modern Healthcare article, “CMS Targets Healthcare Providers’ Affiliates in New Rule.” The article explains the new rule expanding the power of CMS to revoke healthcare providers’ Medicare enrollment if they are affiliated with targeted “bad actors.” Bill notes that the new rule adds another layer to the complex regulations covering healthcare fraud and that it will be difficult for providers to appeal such revocations.
