CMS Pub. 100-04, ch. 30, § 150.14
Imposition of Sanctions
Section 1834(a)(18)(B) of the Act provides that if a supplier knowingly and willfully fails
to make required refunds, the Secretary may impose the sanctions provided in
§1842(j)(2) of the Act in the same manner as such sanctions are authorized under §1128A
of the Act. These include civil money penalties, assessments, and exclusion from the
Medicare program for a period of up to five years. The CMS RO will make the
determination on whether to proceed in developing a monetary penalty or program
exclusion case based upon a failure to make refunds.
