Oppenheim quoted on Mandatory CMS Survey

Hospital groups are not pleased with the new mandatory CMS survey requiring financial disclosures. Charles Oppenheim, a partner in Foley's Los Angeles office, was quoted in the July 26, 2007 issue of the BNA Health Care Daily Report as saying that the CMS made the survey mandatory because of a low response rate when it was voluntary, however the scope of the new survey goes beyond what Congress mandated in 2006.
