8. Definitions of Fraud, Waste and Abuse 8 Preferred Care Partners Confidential and Proprietary

9. What is Fraud? Fraud is an intentional deception or misrepresentation that the individual knows to be false or does not believe to be true, and makes knowing that the deception could result in some unauthorized benefit to himself/herself or some other person. 9 Preferred Care Partners Confidential and Proprietary

10. What is Waste? Waste is the extravagant, careless, or needless expenditure of funds or consumption of property that results from deficient practices, system controls, and wrong decisions. 10 Preferred Care Partners Confidential and Proprietary

11. What is Abuse? Abuse describes provider practices that are inconsistent with generally accepted business or medical practices and that result in an unnecessary cost to the Medicare program or in the reimbursement for goods or services that are not medically necessary or that fail to meet professionally recognized standards for health care/ or recipient practices that result in unnecessary cost to the Medicare program. Many times abuse appears quite similar to fraud except that it is not possible to establish that abusive acts were committed knowingly, willfully, and intentionally. Although these types of practices may initially be categorized as abusive in nature, under certain circumstances they may develop into fraud if there is evidence that the subject was knowingly and willfully conducting an abusive practice. 11 Preferred Care Partners Confidential and Proprietary

12. Fraud, Waste, and Abuse in our Healthcare System The National Healthcare Anti-fraud Association (NHCAA) cites an average of 3 percent (at the low end) and 10 percent (at the high end) of healthcare spending is lost due to fraud. That’s between $67 Billion and $230 Billion lost each year to fraud, waste or abuse. That estimates to between $184 million and $630 million dollar loss per day, and this number is expected to increase every year as healthcare costs rise.* Healthcare fraud is believed to be the second largest white-collar crime in the United States. It is often mistaken for a victimless crime, but it affects everyone. Fraud causes insurance premiums to rise, and victims may be put through unnecessary or unsafe procedures. Victims of identity theft may find their insurance information used to submit false claims. This is a staggering cost, and we are committed to battling these unnecessary expenditures every step of the way. *The National Healthcare Anti-fraud Association (NHCAA). “Anti-Fraud Resource, Consumer Info & Action”; available at: http://www.nhcaa.org/eweb/DynamicPage.aspx?webcode=anti_fraud_resource_centr&wpscode=ConsumerAndActionInfo 12 Preferred Care Partners Confidential and Proprietary

19. The False Claims Act The False Claims Act (FCA) prohibits knowingly filing a false or fraudulent claim for payment to the government, knowingly using a false record or statement to obtain payment on a false or fraudulent claim paid by the government, or conspiring to defraud the government by getting a false or fraudulent claim allowed or paid. See 31 U.S.C. 3729(a) of the Act for additional details, exclusions, and statutory exceptions. 19 Preferred Care Partners Confidential and Proprietary

20. False Claims Act Examples & Fines A person is in violation of the False Claims Act if they have: o Purposefully supplied false information on an application for a Medicare benefit or payment or for use in determining the right to any such benefit or payment; o Known about, but did not disclose, any event affecting the right to receive a benefit; o Knowingly submitting a claim for a physician service that was not rendered by a physician or o Supplied items or services and asked for, offered, or received a kickback, bribe or rebate. Under the 42 U.S.C section 1320a-7b(a), if an individual participates in an activity above, they will be found guilty of a felony and upon conviction shall be fined a maximum of $50,000 per violation or imprisoned for up to five years per violation or both. 20 Preferred Care Partners Confidential and Proprietary

21. Civil and Criminal False Claims Act (42 U.S.C. §1320a-7b(a)) It is a crime for any person or organization to: o Knowingly present, or cause to be presented, a false or fraudulent claim for payment or approval by the federal government; or o Knowingly make, use, or cause to be made or used a false record or statement to influence the payment of a false or fraudulent claim. NOTE: Unlike the Anti-Kickback Statute, no proof of specific intent to defraud is required by the False Claims Act. The person submitting a claim does not need to have actual knowledge that the claim is false. Anyone who acts in reckless disregard or in deliberate ignorance of the truth or falsity of the information can also be found liable under the False Claims Act. 21 Preferred Care Partners Confidential and Proprietary

22. Fraud Enforcement & Recovery Act of 2009 (“FERA”) Signed into law May 20, 2009. o Amends the False Claims Act. o Makes it illegal to “knowingly conceal or knowingly and improperly avoid” an obligation to repay federal funds that have been paid in error, even if the erroneous payment was not caused by the submission of a false record or statement. Expands the definition of “claim” to include: o Demands for payments made by subcontractors to companies receiving federal funds. o Any request for money made to any “recipient” of funds provided, in whole or in part, by the government, “to advance a Government program or interest.” 22 Preferred Care Partners Confidential and Proprietary

23. Anti-Kickback Statute The Anti-Kickback Statute, 42 U.S.C. §1320a-7b(b), prohibits the following actions: Soliciting or receiving, offering, paying remuneration for referrals of Medicare or Medicaid patients, or referrals for services or items which are paid for, in whole or in part, by Medicare or Medicaid. Soliciting or receiving, offering or paying remuneration in return for purchasing, leasing, ordering, or arranging for, or recommending purchasing, leasing, or ordering any goods, facility, service, or item for which payment may be made in whole or in part, by Medicare or Medicaid. Discounts, rebates, or other reductions in price may violate the anti-kickback statute because such arrangements induce the purchase of items or services payable by Medicare or Medicaid. The statute ascribes criminal liability to parties on both sides of an impermissible “kickback” transaction. However, certain arrangements are clearly permissible if they fall within a “safe harbor.” 23 Preferred Care Partners Confidential and Proprietary

24. What is Remuneration? The transfer of anything of value, directly or indirectly, overtly or covertly in cash. When this happens, both parties are held in criminal liability of the impermissible “kickback” transaction. 24 Preferred Care Partners Confidential and Proprietary

25. Physician Self-Referral “Stark” Prohibition Physician Self-Referral Prohibition Statute o Commonly referred to as the “Stark Law.” o Prohibits physicians from referring Medicare patients for certain designated health services to an entity with which the physician or a member of the physician’s immediate family has a financial relationship – unless an exception applies. o Prohibits an entity from presenting or causing to be presented a bill or claim to anyone for a designated health service furnished as a result of a prohibited referral. 25 Preferred Care Partners Confidential and Proprietary

26. Stark Joint Venture Agreement - Changes effective October 1, 2009 Under Arrangement Agreements. CMS finalized changes to the definition of "entity" that will prohibit physician ownership of entities that provide services to hospitals "under arrangements." Under the revised definition of "entity", a person or entity is considered to be furnishing DHS if the person or entity either "performs" the DHS or presents a claim or causes a claim to be presented to Medicare for the DHS. Per Click leases CMS revised the space and equipment lease exceptions, the fair market value exception, and the indirect compensation arrangements exception under Stark to prohibit per-unit of service rental charges for space and equipment to the extent that such charges reflect services provided to patients referred between the parties. This change will effectively prohibit physician- owned leasing companies from entering into per-click leases with hospitals and other designated health services entities. CMS stated that the new prohibition also applies when the physician is the lessee. However, CMS is not prohibiting per-click arrangements involving non-physician-owned lessors to the extent that these lessors do not refer patients for DHS. CMS also clarifies that it is not prohibiting per-click payments to physician lessors for services rendered to patients who were not referred to the lessee by the physician lessors. The Rule also prohibits the use of compensation arrangements for the rental of space or equipment that are based on a percentage of revenue attributable to the services performed or business generated in the leased office space or in the use of leased equipment, whether the arrangement is a direct or indirect financial arrangement. 26 Preferred Care Partners Confidential and Proprietary

27. Stand in Shoes Doctrine Affects o Ancillary Services Joint Ventures (e.g. ambulatory surgery centers, diagnostic imaging facilities, specialty hospitals, etc.) o Physician Medical Director Management relationships o Exclusive Specialty Services contracts Phase III "stand in the shoes" rules, effective January 1, 2008, required physicians to stand in the shoes of "physician organizations" ("POs") with which they had a financial relationship. As defined, a PO is generally considered as any organization primarily engaged in providing physician services. Financial relationships between the PO and DHS entities are analyzed if such relationships are direct between a physician and the DHS entity. These relationships must therefore meet a direct compensation exception under the Stark. In 2009 the stand in the shoes doctrine changed in three ways: (i) modifies types of financial relationships between physicians and POs subject to the rule; (ii) alters the application of the physician "stand in the shoes" rules to academic medical centers; and (iii) declines to implement to the so-called “entity stand in the shoes” doctrine that had previously appeared in the 2008 Medicare Physician Fee Schedule. 27 Preferred Care Partners Confidential and Proprietary

28. Intermediate Sanctions It is important that to understand these regulations since violations can result in civil and federal penalties. CMS can impose intermediate sanctions on our Plan Sponsors for: o Engaging in discriminatory practices o Providing false information to CMS o Imposing excessive premiums on members o Inappropriately disenrolling or refusing to re-enroll an individual o Failing to provide a beneficiary with medically necessary items or services that are required under law or contract o Employing or contracting with any health care provider that is excluded from participation in the Medicare program 28 Preferred Care Partners Confidential and Proprietary

29. The OIG Exclusion The Department of Health and Human Services Office of Inspector General (OIG) is legally required to exclude from participation in all Federal Health Care programs individuals and entities convicted of the following types of criminal offenses: o Medicare or Medicaid fraud o Patient abuse or neglect o Felony convictions for other health related fraud, theft, or other financial misconduct o Felony convictions for unlawful manufacture, distribution, prescription or dispensing of controlled substances The OIG has discretion to exclude on several other grounds, including misdemeanor convictions related to the list above. 29 Preferred Care Partners Confidential and Proprietary

30. The OIG Exclusion (cont.) If a Provider is excluded by OIG from participation in Federal Health Care programs, then Medicare, Medicaid, TRICARE and/or VA will not pay for items or services furnished, ordered or prescribed by the excluded provider. Excluded providers may not bill directly for treating Medicare and Medicaid patients, nor may their services be billed indirectly through an employer or a group practice. The online database may be accessed at: http://oig.hhs.gov/fraud/exclusions.asp http://oig.hhs.gov/fraud/exclusions.asp The List of Excluded Individuals/Entities (OIG) contains just the exclusion actions taken by the OIG. 30 Preferred Care Partners Confidential and Proprietary

31. . HIPAA Privacy & Security 31 Preferred Care Partners Confidential and Proprietary

32. The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), addresses the right to privacy for an individual patient’s medical records. Privacy Rule: Defines protected health information and provides individuals more control over how their health information is used and disclosed. Security Rule: Establishes controls for safeguarding the integrity, availability and confidentiality of private information. The Office for Civil Rights is responsible for implementation and enforcement of the privacy and security regulations. 32 Preferred Care Partners Confidential and Proprietary

33. WHAT DOES HIPAA PROTECT? Patient information such as medical office patient charts, hospital records, radiographs, lab work and testing procedures are considered Protected Health Information (PHI). It also protects information that is maintained by a health care provider or health plan. HIPAA protects a patient’s right to access and make changes to their PHI. WHAT INFORMATION IS PROTECTED? Protected information includes identification of a patient by name, social security number, birth date or address. It includes all data in a patient’s medical record such as health status, diagnosis, treatment information and test results. Information relative to provisions for or payment of health care is also protected. 33 Preferred Care Partners Confidential and Proprietary

34. 34 o Names, Addresses o All elements of dates directly related to an individual, including birth date, admission date discharge date, date of death o Telephone or Fax number o E-Mail Address o Medical Record Number o Health Plan Beneficiary Number o Account Numbers o Certificate/License Number Vehicle Identifier and Serial Numbers (License plates) o Device Identifiers & Serial Numbers o URL, IP Addresses o Biometric Identifiers (finger and voice prints) o Full-Face Photos and Comparable Images o Any other unique identifying number, characteristic or code What Is Considered PHI? Preferred Care Partners Confidential and Proprietary

35. SECURITY OF DATA SAFEGUARDING PROTECTED HEALTH INFORMATION (PHI) - A covered entity must have administrative, technical and physical safeguards in place to protect the privacy of Protected Health Information from the intentional or unintentional use or disclosure. 35 Preferred Care Partners Confidential and Proprietary

36. HIPAA’s 2009 HITECH ACT Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health HITECH Act introduced several new security provisions including: o time frame requirement to notify members and Health and Human Services (HHS) of Protected Health Information (PHI) security breaches; o new stricter HIPAA regulations regarding business associates and enforcement of penalties; o restrictions on the sale and marketing of PHI; When a breach occurs, a covered entity must notify each individual whose unsecured PHI has been, or is reasonably believed by the covered entity to have been breached, accessed, acquired, used or disclosed as a result of such breach. A covered entity must notify HHS and the media in the event of a breach of unsecured PHI involving 500 or more individuals. A business associate must notify the covered entity of any breach of unsecured PHI. 36 Preferred Care Partners Confidential and Proprietary

37. Violation of PHI & PHI Breach Disclosures For knowingly obtaining or disclosing identifiable health information relating to an individual in violation of the Rule: o Up to $50,000 & 1 year imprisonment o Up to $100,000 & 5 years if done under false pretenses o Up to $250,000 & 10 years if intent to sell, transfer, or use for commercial advantage, personal gain or malicious harm Preferred Care Partners must notify the Secretary of Health and Human Services of all unauthorized disclosures of PHI; and follow the required process of notification to the individual, client, business associate and when indicated, the media. 37 Preferred Care Partners Confidential and Proprietary

38. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Office for Civil Rights (OCR) is responsible for privacy and security enforcement under Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Act provisions. OCR has announced that it is initiating compliance audits beginning November, 2011, as authorized by the HITECH Act. This action precedes the imminent release of the Final HIPAA/HITECH Act Privacy, Security, Breach Notification, and Enforcement Rules, expected before the end of 2011, and will strengthen enforcement and accountability for compliance with existing and forthcoming Rule modifications. To avoid the consequences of potential penalties for non-compliance, covered entities and business associates must now pay immediate attention to conducting a new or reviewing an existing risk assessment of threat and vulnerability to protected health information (PHI), mitigating identified risks through privacy and security safeguard policies and procedures, training their workforce members to safeguard privacy and security of PHI, and documenting those actions in writing.
