In part, these sections govern physician incentive plans operated by federally qualified health maintenance organizations and competitive medical plans contracting with the Medicare program, and certain health maintenance organizations and health insuring organizations contracting with the Medicaid program. As applicable and pursuant to 42 CFR §417.479 and 42 CFR §434.70, no specific payment will be made directly or indirectly, under Plans hereunder to a physician or physician group, as an inducement to reduce or limit medically necessary services furnished to a Member.
Financial Incentives. Medical Management decision making is based only on Medical Necessity criteria, a member’s benefit plan, individual needs and circumstances, and the local delivery system. We do not reward or compensate Physicians, Providers, or other individuals for issuing denials of coverage. No financial incentives are given to staff to encourage decisions that result in underutilization. FRAUD OR MISREPRESENTATION Fraudulent statements and/or intentional misrepresentation on application forms, claims, Identification Cards or other identification to obtain services or a higher level of benefits are prohibited. This includes, but is not limited to, the fabrication and/or alteration of a claim, Identification Card or other identification. Misrepresentation involving all media (paper or electronic) may invalidate any payment or claims for services and be grounds for rescinding coverage. This includes fraudulent acts to obtain medical services and/or Prescription Drugs. Unauthorized use of your Identification Card, by you or an unauthorized person, or if you fraudulently use the Identification Card of another covered person, including but not limited to the use of card before coverage is in effect or after coverage has ended. Under these circumstances, the person who receives the services provided by misuse of the Identification Card will be responsible for payment of those services. Fraudulent misuse could also result in termination of the coverage. MEDICAL XXXX REVIEW (MBR) AND CLAIM AUDIT PROVISION All health care providers must submit Clean Claims. Alliant reserves the right to request and review medical records in order to allow for the determination of benefits according to the Contract. In accordance with Alliant’s policies and procedures, no benefits will be payable by Alliant if the health care provider does not submit a Clean Claim, obtain required Prior Authorization approvals, and submit upon request complete/legible itemization and complete/legible medical records.

Financial Incentives. All tenants will be required to either purchase a VTA Eco Pass for bus and light rail for each full-time employee, or purchase a monthly pass (or equivalent) at a cost of up to $65 per month for each employee who commutes via public transportation on a substantially full-time basis. The tenant may elect to offer both incentives.
Financial Incentives. Financial incentives have been shown to be strong motivators for use of public transit for many commuters. Undercurrent federal law, it is relatively easy for employers to subsidize the use of public transit for their employee's travel to work, and these subsidies are exempt from federal income taxes if the monthly subsidy does not exceed $65. It is much more difficult to subsidize the use of carpools, bicycles, and other commute alternatives without incurring federal income tax liabilities. To take maximum advantage of the tax-exempt, transit subsidies now available, all tenants will be required to either:
