Medicare Program - Revised Civil Money Penalties, Assessments, Exclusions, and Related Appeals Procedures (US Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services Regulation) (CMS) (2018 Edition) The Law Library presents the complete text of the Medicare Program - Revised Civil Money Penalties, Assessments, Exclusions, and Related Appeals Procedures (US Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services Regulation) (CMS) (2018 Edition). Updated as of May 29, 2018 This final rule establishes the procedures for imposing exclusions for certain violations of the Medicare program and is based on the procedures that the Office of Inspector General has published for civil money penalties, assessments, and exclusions under their delegated authority. Implementation of this final rule protects beneficiaries from persons (that is, health care providers and entities) found in noncompliance with Medicare regulations, and otherwise improves the safeguard provisions under the Medicare statute. This final rule also establishes procedures that enable a person targeted for exclusion from the Medicare program to request the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services to act on its behalf to recommend to the Inspector General that the exclusion from Medicare be waived due to hardship that would be placed on Medicare beneficiaries as a result of the person's exclusion.
