Entities working through referral or contract must report on those arrangements
“An entity carrying out activities described in subsection (g) through referral or contractual arrangements shall include in the submissions required under paragraph (1) information related to the status of such referrals or contractual arrangements, including an assessment of whether such referrals or contractual arrangements are supporting the ability of such entity to carry out such activities.”
The section adds paragraph (2) to section 552(h) of the Public Health Service Act. It requires an entity that works through referral or contract to include, in what it already submits, the status of those arrangements and an assessment of whether they support its ability to do the work.
What the document actually says
“An entity carrying out activities described in subsection (g) through referral or contractual arrangements shall include in the submissions required under paragraph (1) information related to the status of such referrals or contractual arrangements, including an assessment of whether such referrals or contractual arrangements are supporting the ability of such entity to carry out such activities.”
That sentence, in plain words
A group that works through deals must report on them. It must say where each deal stands. It must also say whether the deal is helping.
What this is about
The report goes in with what the group already sends. It is not a new separate filing. It adds a subject to an existing one.
No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.

How to Read This Page
The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, checked against the page
number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary,
not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the
quotation rather than replacing it.
