Limits reimbursement for certain overpayment claims due to record submission discrepancies.

The bill amends the public health law to limit the reimbursement amount for overpayment claims where the overpayment resulted from a provider's submission of records that did not comply with program requirements at the time but were in accordance with current requirements due to changes in guidelines or regulations. The bill specifies that recoupment for such claims will be limited to the amount of the claims actually reviewed by the inspector without extrapolation, and no new or additional reviews will be initiated against the provider on the same basis.
