HHS Expands Relief Fund Eligibility and Updates Reporting Requirements
HHS is expanding the pool of eligible Phase 3 applicants to include providers across a broad category of practices. Many providers who accept Medicare and Medicaid within these categories have already received a PRF payment, but others have not and HHS is working to ensure even more providers are able to receive Phase 3 funding.
HHS received feedback from many voicing concerns regarding permissible uses of PRF money. HHS has amended the reporting instructions to increase flexibility around how providers can apply PRF money toward lost revenues attributable to coronavirus.
