On October 22nd, the Department of Health and Human Services released revised Provider Relief Fund (PRF) reporting requirements. Under HHS’ September 19 directive, “lost revenue” was defined narrowly as a negative change in year-over-year patient care operating net income. Now, HHS will permit providers to use PRF funds to cover the difference between their 2019 and 2020 actual patient care revenue with some adjustments for COVID-related expenses. The October 22nd notice is available here. PYA Principals Martie Ross and Michael Ramey hosted a complimentary 30-minute webinar, “Trick or Treat? October 22nd Revisions to Provider Relief Fund Reporting Requirements” on Thursday, October 29th.
