The Secretary must set up a submission and review process by rulemaking
What the document says“The Secretary shall, through notice and comment rulemaking, establish a process for each provider with an off-campus outpatient department of a provider to submit an initial and subsequent attestation”
The new paragraph requires the Secretary, through notice and comment rulemaking, to set up a process for submitting the initial and later attestations, and for the Secretary to review each one and decide whether the department complies, through site visits, remote audits or other means the Secretary finds appropriate.
What the document actually says“The Secretary shall, through notice and comment rulemaking, establish a process for each provider with an off-campus outpatient department of a provider to submit an initial and subsequent attestation”
The health chief must set up a way for these statements to be filed. It must be done through a rule with public notice and comment.
The agency must also check the statements. It may visit a site. It may audit from a distance. Or it may find another way.
