Lease agreements and Stark

  • 1.  Lease agreements and Stark

    Posted 05-04-2023 12:24

    Any general thoughts in regards to building lease agreements applicable to this snippet from the Final Rule or does this not apply?  Does not having a final agreement executed at renewal violate Stark?  Or based on this language...having email exchanges about the course of conduct satisfy?  What recourse is available if landlord delays final agreement past 90 days for signature?  
    Additional Flexibility Related to the Signature and Writing Requirements
    ....writing requirement may be satisfied with a collection of contemporaneous documents evidencing the course of conduct, and it further clarified that the failure to obtain signatures on such written agreement would not result in noncompliance if the parties obtained missing signatures within 90 days....
