On June 11, 2021, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) released updated reporting requirements for recipients of Provider Relief Fund (PRF) payments. With this announcement, HHS expands the amount of time providers will have to report information and extends key deadlines for expending PRF payments for recipients who received payments after June 30, 2020. Highlights of the updated reporting requirements are as follow:
- The period of availability of funds is based on the date the payment is received, as outlined in the chart below, rather than requiring all payments to be used by June 30, 2021, regardless of when they were received.
- Recipients are required to report for each “Payment Received Period” in which they received one or more payments exceeding, in the aggregate, $10,000, rather than $10,000 cumulatively across all PRF payments, as outlined in the chart below.
- Recipients will have a 90-day period to complete reporting, rather than a 30-day reporting period.
- The PRF Reporting Portal will open for providers to start submitting information on July 1, 2021.
