Learn More »In the coming months, several hundred hospitals around the country will begin receiving a new mandatory disclosure instrument from CMS – the Disclosure of Financial Relationships Report (DFRR). The DFRR is a Stark law compliance audit intended to analyze all investment interests and compensation arrangements between hospitals and their physicians. Although originally intended to be a permanent, annual reporting mechanism, CMS has announced that the DFRR will be a one-time event, at least for now. The agency has stated that it will consider scheduling future audits after it has an opportunity to review the administration and the findings of the first DFRR.
