Massachusetts Health & Hospital Association Preparing for the Mandatory Attestation and NPI Requirements for Off-Campus Hospital Outpatient Departments
April 22 | 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm
Section 6225 of the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2026 imposes new requirements on hospitals to comply with Medicare attestation requirements and to secure a unique national provider identifier (NPI) for their off-campus outpatient departments by December 31, 2027 – or face payment rejections. What was once voluntary is now mandatory, and hospitals may be unprepared to become compliant within such a short timetable.
Attend this webinar to:
- Understand the new statutory requirements
- Anticipate advocacy from the sector and potential CMS responses
- Avoid loss of grandfathered status under site-neutrality rules in responding to new Consolidated Appropriations Act requirements
- Learn practical strategies and steps hospital need to take now to avoid any payment disruptions or other negative collateral consequences for failure to comply
