In the fast-changing world of vaccine mandates, CMS has recently issued its vaccine mandate with respect to the covid vaccine.

Conrad Meyer, Chris Martin, and Rory Bellina, take a deep dive into the CMS mandate to discuss who is covered, what exemptions apply, how to document compliance with both the mandate and the exemptions, and what penalties Medicare-participating providers will face for noncompliance. Please join us for another exciting episode on a very timely topic in the ever-changing world of vaccine mandates.
