12VAC5-508-180. Monitoring during service.
Monitoring of the participant's service obligation shall be conducted on an ongoing basis by department staff. Service verification forms shall be submitted by the participant to the department semi-annually (every six months) and countersigned by a representative of the service site (e.g., the medical director, human resource coordinator, or chief executive officer), certifying continuous full-time service by the participant.
The participant shall maintain practice records in a manner that will allow the department to readily determine if the individual has complied with or is complying with the terms and conditions of the contract. Department staff reserves the right to conduct a regular survey to ensure that all participants are maintaining practices that accept Medicare and Medicaid assignment and do not discriminate based on the patient's ability to pay.
