Treatment of beneficiaries. (1) The FQHC must agree to accept Medicare beneficiaries for care and treatment. (2) The FQHC may not impose any limitations with respect to care and treatment of Medicare beneficiaries that it does not also impose upon all other persons seeking care and treat- ment from the FQHC. Failure to com- ply with this requirement is a cause for termination of the FQHC’s agreement with CMS in accordance with § 405.2436(d). (3) If the FQHC does not furnish treatment for certain illnesses and con- ditions to patients who are not Medi- care beneficiaries, it need not furnish such treatment to Medicare bene- ficiaries.
