AdvaMed® Comment Letter to OIG’s Annual Solicitation for Safe Harbors and Special Fraud Alerts
AdvaMed Comment Letter: Advancing Value-Based Care Through Safe Harbor Reform
In this comment letter submitted to the Office of Inspector General (OIG), AdvaMed proposes updates to federal Anti-Kickback Statute (AKS) safe harbors and recommends a new Special Fraud Alert focused on group purchasing entities. The letter advocates for modernized protections that support value-based care arrangements and expand access to innovative medical technologies. By aligning compliance policies with the evolving healthcare landscape, these recommendations aim to reduce inefficiencies, lower costs, and improve patient outcomes. AdvaMed reaffirms its commitment to collaborating with OIG, the incoming administration, and other stakeholders to ensure medical technology manufacturers are fully integrated into value-based care frameworks.
