Overview
Recent regulatory changes require hospitals with off-campus provider-based outpatient locations to file provider-based attestations for each location before January 1, 2028. Hospitals must also obtain a separate national provider identifier (NPI) for each location. Hospital locations that fail to comply with the new requirements will no longer qualify as provider-based, which will have broad-reaching impact. While the attestation form appears straightforward, preparation can take many months. Hospital leaders need to act now to understand the requirements and develop a compliance roadmap.
