STARK II PHASE III: A Detailed Section-By-Section Analysis of the Long-Awaited “Final” Rule

Client Alert | 1 min read | 10.02.07

 The Crowell & Moring Health Care Group is pleased to provide our clients, colleagues, and friends with our legal analysis of the Stark II Phase III Regulations, recently published in the September 5, 2007 Federal Register. These new regulations present both welcome relief and unanticipated future challenges in the manner in which physician financial relationships with DHS entities are structured. Our goal in preparing this analysis was to create a thoughtful, practical, and "user-friendly" Stark Law resource that incorporates references to prior rulemaking as well as to the proposed 2008 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule Rule.
