CMS Announces Upcoming Webinar Regarding Expansion of Section 111 Reporting to Include Reporting of Workers’ Compensation Medicare Set-Asides

By: Kristina Bonanno

Today, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) announced that it will be hosting a webinar on Monday, November 13 at 1:00 PM EST regarding the expansion of Section 111 Non-Group Health Plan (NGHP) Total Payment Obligation to Claimant (TPOC) reporting to include Workers’ Compensation Medicare Set-Aside (WCMSA) information. The text of the webinar announcement is located here.

It is unclear what specific “WCMSA information” NGHP’s will be required to report, and it is also unclear if NGHP’s will be required to report on WCMSAs that were not submitted to CMS for review. As referenced by CMS in the announcement, we also strongly recommend that workers’ compensation NGHP’s attend the webinar. Sanderson Firm will be attending the webinar and will provide additional commentary and analysis in a subsequent blog article after the CMS webinar.

If your organization has any questions about this webinar or Section 111 reporting, please contact us.
