+Added: In 2025, the Oregon legislature introduced and, on June 9, 2025, the governor signed into law, Oregon Senate Bill 951 (“SB 951”), which strengthened the state’s corporate practice of medicine doctrine and imposed new restrictions on dual ownership of a professional medical practice and a management services organization (“MSO”) that contractually provides management and administrative services for the medical practice.
+Added: Under SB 951, MSOs cannot make hiring or compensation decisions for licensed medical providers, set schedules or patient loads, influence diagnostic coding or care protocols, negotiate payor contracts, or set billing and collection policies.
+Added: SB 951 also prohibited MSOs from placing absolute restrictions on the abilities of the medical practices they served from selling their assets without MSO approval, or from internal sales of the medical providers’ stock or equity interests in the practice.

+Added: Several courts have interpreted the AKS’s intent requirement to mean that if any one purpose of an arrangement involving remuneration is to induce referrals of healthcare business reimbursable by a federal healthcare program, AKS has been violated.
+Added: The AKS includes statutory exceptions and regulatory safe harbors that, if complied with, protect certain arrangements from constituting a violation of the law.
By way of example, the AKS safe harbor for value-based arrangements and the safe harbor for arrangements between managed care organizations and downstream contractors both require, among other things, that the arrangement does not induce a person or entity to reduce or limit medically necessary items or services furnished to any patient.
Failure to meet the requirements of an applicable AKS safe harbor, however, does not render an arrangement illegal.

The Stark Law also prohibits the entity from billing for any such prohibited referral.

+Added: Further, the Civil Monetary Penalties Law authorizes the imposition of civil monetary penalties, assessments and exclusion against an individual or entity based on a variety of prohibited conduct, including, but not limited to offering remuneration to a federal health care program beneficiary that the individual or entity knows or should know is likely to influence the beneficiary to order or receive health care items or services from a particular provider.
Moreover, in certain cases, providers who routinely waive copayments and deductibles for Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries can also be held liable under the AKS and civil FCA.
One of the statutory exceptions to the prohibition is non-routine, unadvertised waivers of copayments or deductible amounts based on individualized determinations of financial need or exhaustion of reasonable collection efforts.
−Removed: Department of Health and Human Services (“HHS”) Office of Inspector General emphasizes, however, that this exception should only be used occasionally to address special financial needs of a particular patient.
+Added: Department of Health and Human Services (“HHS”) Office of Inspector General (“OIG”) emphasizes, however, that this exception should only be used occasionally to address special financial needs of a particular patient.
Although this prohibition applies only to federal healthcare program beneficiaries, the routine waivers of copayments and deductibles offered to patients covered by commercial payors may implicate applicable state laws related to, among other things, unlawful schemes to defraud, excessive fees for services, tortious interference with patient contracts and statutory or common law fraud.
−Removed: The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, as amended by the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act of 2009 (collectively, “HIPAA”), also established federal criminal statutes that prohibit, among other things, knowingly and willfully executing, or attempting to execute, a scheme to defraud any healthcare benefit program, including private third-party payors, and knowingly and willfully falsifying, concealing or covering up a material fact or making any materially false, fictitious or fraudulent statement in connection with the delivery of or payment for healthcare benefits, items or services.

+Added: The scope of these laws, such as their application to payment sources other than Medicare and Medicaid, and the interpretations of them, vary from state to state and are enforced by state regulatory authorities, each with broad and widely varying discretion.
+Added: Some state fraud and abuse laws apply to items or services reimbursed by any payor, including patients and commercial insurers, and not just those reimbursed by a federally funded healthcare program, while other states have laws against kickbacks and self-referral that apply solely to Medicare or Medicaid funds.

Healthcare Reform
In the United States, there have been, and we expect there will continue to be, a number of legislative and regulatory changes to the healthcare system, many of which are intended to contain or reduce healthcare costs.
+Added: By way of example, in the United States, the Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act (collectively, the “ACA”), substantially changed the way healthcare is financed by both governmental and private insurers.
+Added: The ACA required, among other things, CMS to establish a Medicare shared savings program (“MSSP”) to promote accountability and coordination of care through the creation of Accountable Care Organizations (“ACOs”).
+Added: The MSSP allows for providers, physicians and other designated health care professionals and suppliers to form ACOs and voluntarily work together to invest in infrastructure and redesign delivery processes to give coordinated high quality care to their Medicare patients, avoid unnecessary duplication of services and prevent medical errors.
+Added: Since their inception, ACOs have gone through several evolutions, with CMS periodically launching ACO programs for defined time periods, which are succeeded by new ACO models.
+Added: With each generation of ACO, CMS has intended for the rules governing ACO operation and organization to be responsive to any limitations identified in prior ACO generations, and to leverage changes in law and developments in technology to expand care available to patients and focus on aligning compensation to providers with quality of care delivered to patients.
+Added: ACOs that achieve quality performance standards established by CMS are eligible to share in a portion of the Medicare program’s cost savings.

+Added: In July of 2025, congress passed and the President signed into law the One Big Beautiful Bill Act of 2025 (“OBBBA”), which affected certain provisions of the ACA.
+Added: In particular, the OBBBA made changes regarding the availability of subsidies available for the purchase of plans available on healthcare exchanges created by the ACA, as well as automatic re-enrollment in the ACA marketplace.
+Added: The OBBBA represents the latest legislative efforts to change the ACA, which vary between expanding or contracting the scope and function of the ACA depending on which political party controls the presidency and/or the majority of one or both houses of Congress.
In addition, other legislative changes have been proposed and adopted since the ACA was enacted.
−Removed: These changes included aggregate reductions to Medicare payments to providers, which went into effect on April 1, 2013 and, due to subsequent legislative amendments to the statute, will remain in effect through the first six months of fiscal year 2032, with the exception of a temporary suspension from May 1, 2020 through March 31, 2022, unless additional Congressional action is taken.
+Added: These changes included aggregate reductions to Medicare payments to providers by 2%, commonly known as “sequestration.” Sequestration was legislated to take effect on April 1, 2013 and, due to subsequent legislative amendments to the statute, will remain in effect through the first six months of fiscal year 2032.
+Added: Since adopting this sequestration into law, though, its implementation and resulting reductions in Medicare payments have been repeatedly suspended from taking effect, including through the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act of 2023, Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2024, American Relief Act of 2025, and the OBBBA.
In addition, on January 2, 2013, the American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012 was signed into law, which, among other things, reduced Medicare payments to several providers, including hospitals, and increased the statute of limitations period for the government to recover overpayments to providers from three to five years.

−Removed: At this time, it is unclear how the introduction of the Medicare quality payment program will impact overall physician reimbursement.
−Removed: In addition, there likely will continue to be regulatory proposals directed at containing or lowering the cost of healthcare, as government healthcare programs and other third-party payors transition from FFS to value-based reimbursement models, which can include risk-sharing, bundled payment and other innovative approaches.
+Added: Additional changes that may affect our business include the expansion of new programs such as Medicare payment for performance initiatives for physicians under the Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act of 2015 (“MACRA”), which first affected physician payment in 2019 based on physician participation in the Merit-Incentive Based Program (“MIPS”), or other eligible alternative payment model.
+Added: Due to the revenue-neutral nature of MACRA and MIPS’s proposals for increasing or otherwise adjusting physician compensation, the result has been that certain physician organizations have received incentive payments for improved outcomes and reported increases in quality measures, while other physicians and provider groups saw reimbursements decrease due to not participating in such updates or failing to report data.
+Added: Incentive payments available under MIPS have also decreased over time, as have the amounts of incentive payments available under certain alternative payment models.
+Added: In addition, there likely will continue to be regulatory proposals directed at containing or lowering the cost of healthcare, adopt new payment models that rely on the data-gathering and reporting capacities of new technology to assess the quality of care provided to patients, and other changes as government healthcare programs and other third-party payors transition from FFS to value-based reimbursement models.
+Added: These updates have included, and may continue to include in the future, risk-sharing, bundled payment and other innovative approaches.

+Added: In 2022, the Information Blocking Rule, which was contemplated by the Cures Act, took effect, with subsequent amendments via rulemaking in 2023 and 2024 to clarify certain aspects of the rule and its intended implementation.

+Added: The incidence of data breaches has escalated significantly from 2019 through the end of 2025, and continues to be a risk to us and the healthcare sector in general due to both business risk and potential administrative, civil and even criminal liability, including penalties, fines, and corrective actions, that may arise from data breaches or the inaccessibility of patient information, such as in “ransomware” attacks.
+Added: Failure to comply with these laws, where applicable, can result in the imposition of significant civil and/or criminal penalties and private litigation, including class actions.

+Added: Such oversight is accomplished via contract and may include the imposition of reserve requirements several times greater than normal bond or security requirements necessary to obtain a license or certificate required for operation, as well as reporting obligations.
Further, state regulatory stances regarding downstream risk-sharing arrangements can change rapidly and codified provisions may not keep pace with evolving risk-sharing mechanisms and other new value-based reimbursement models.
