HHS publishes timeline for Provider Relief Fund Reporting Requirement

From MGMA 7/22/2020

FROM MGMA

HHS released an overview of future reporting requirements for providers that received payments under the Provider Relief Fund. HHS outlined the timing of future reporting requirements for providers that receive payments that exceed $10,000 in the aggregate from any Provider Relief Fund distribution (i.e., any payment under the $50 billion general distribution; Medicaid distribution; or a targeted distribution). The overview released on July 20 does not indicate whether providers that received $10,000 or less will be subject to any reporting obligations, and does not provide detail as to the form or content of reports. However, the following timeline is provided:

  • August 17, 2020: Detailed instructions will be available by this date
  • October 1, 2020: Reporting system comes available
  • February 15, 2021: Report due
  • July 31, 2021: Second report due for those who expended funds in 2021

MGMA will continue to monitor this issue and update the community as soon as detailed instructions for reporting become available.
