Wrong. Or at least, one cannot draw such an inference from what you posted.

Hospitals, contrary to popular belief, do believe it is in their interests to comply with Medicare's requirements. It would be surprising to me if most hospitals didn't make these requirements known to the relevant personnel (physicians) even though they may not officially be subject to audit for six months. And in fact, the exemption from audit might even result in GREATER awareness of the requirement.

I'm not even sure that provision addresses the central point in question here, but it isn't even necessary to visit that aspect of it because you're just wrong.

PS: You would do well to avoid agreements with Shep. He is usually wrong, regardless of topic.

It isn't phoney ... CJ just googled around till he found something vague. Because CMS isn't going to audit for six mos, they're not supposed to follow the CMS regs?
