This CLE course provides a comprehensive overview of the Medicare Secondary Payer (MSP) Act, including current regulations, reporting requirements, and practical strategies for compliance. Attendees will gain valuable insights into managing Medicare obligations in settlements, ensuring proper reimbursement, and minimizing risk.

The course will be beneficial to both plaintiff and defense attorneys. It will cover Section 111 reporting and the associated Civil Money Penalties, the reimbursement of Medicare Conditional Payment amounts for traditional Medicare, Medicare Advantage plans, and Medicare Part D prescription drug plans, and strategies to ensure settlements do not shift a burden of payment to Medicare through the proper use of Medicare Set-Asides (MSAs).

Additionally, the course will address negotiating with CMS and Medicare Advantage organizations, best practices for documenting and tracking conditional payments, and recent updates in case law and regulatory guidance that affect MSP compliance.
