175.979           Consequences of Involuntary Termination of Medicaid Participation:

MSSNY will work with the New York State Office of Professional Medical Conduct (OPMC), the New York State Office of Medicaid Inspector General (OMIG), The Joint Commission, the Healthcare Association of New York State (HANYS) and the Greater New York Hospital Association (GNYHA) to remedy the situation where disciplined physicians are allowed by OPMC to retain their medical licenses but are effectively relieved of any ability to treat their patients because of the regulatory cascade imposed by OMIG, hospitals and third party payers.  (HOD 2010-69; Reaffirmed HOD 2020)
