ON DEMAND WEBINAR

Reviewing the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act


Last week, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act was passed and signed into law, providing more than $2 trillion in emergency funding to shore up the ailing economy and provide financial relief to struggling individuals and businesses. In response to the coronavirus pandemic, CMS released an interim final rule providing policy changes on March 30, 2020 and has issued numerous waivers.

  • Provide a summary of the provider-specific provisions within the CARES Act;
  • Review flexibilities and guidance provided by HHS
