- Reminder: Provider Relief Fund Reporting Deadline is March 31
Pathologists who received Providers Relief Fund (PRF) payments that exceed $10,000 must comply with reporting and auditing requirements by 11:59 PM ET on March 31, 2022. The CAP had encouraged pathologists to utilize the financial assistance from these federal programs if needed and has provided resources for this and other programs.
The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) announced that the second reporting period for PRF funds closes on March 31 for those Pathologists who received one or more general and targeted PRF payments exceeding $10,000 from July 1, 2020 to December 31, 2020. This portion is based on providers’ losses and expenses from July 1, 2020, through March 31, 2021, while relief recipients can use the funds to reimburse costs incurred from January 1, 2020, through at least December 31, 2022. The date that provider relief recipients received the Provider Relief Fund determines which spending deadline they must meet. Therefore, providers who received more than $10,000 in relief in the last reporting period, between July 1, 2021, and December 31, 2021, have to spend until December 31, 2022.
The Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) has information and reporting instructions.
