The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and the Treasury
Department published final rules implementing the Affordable Care Act’s (ACA)
501 (r) requirements for tax-exempt hospitals on December 31, 2014. The rules
cover the ACA’s requirements for conducting community health needs assessments
(CHNAs), developing implementation strategies to address identified community
health needs and establishing hospital financial assistance, billing and
collection policies.
This webinar will feature two of the authors of the
rules, IRS lawyers Stephanie Robbins and Preston Quesenberry. They will present
background on the requirements; an overview of the final rules, including how
they differ from proposed rules; and how the IRS/Treasury addressed public input
received during the comment period.
Presenters: Preston Quesenberry, Senior Technician Reviewer, Office of Chief
Counsel, Tax Exempt/Government Entities Division, Internal Revenue Service and
Stephanie Robbins, Attorney, Office of Chief Counsel, Tax Exempt/Government
Entities Division, Internal Revenue Service
