Stimulus Relief for Healthcare Providers to start Friday April 10th

by | Apr 14, 2020

On Friday, April 10, 2020, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) implemented relief targeted to healthcare providers and hospitals. This relief was part of the record stimulus deal that Congress passed in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES).

This assistance is not a loan and will not be repaid. This round of $30 billion is focused on providing financial support to providers and hospitals who are enrolled in Medicare.  The payment is based on a portion of the providers’ share of Medicare fee-for-service (FFS) reimbursements. The payments will be paid electronically for those who receive electronic payments or checks for those who usually receive checks.

It is expected that the next round of relief will be targeted at certain specialties especially hit by the COVID-19 outbreak.

The One Big Beautiful Bill Act has fundamentally reshaped the landscape of itemized deductions, creating both new opportunities and challenges for taxpayers who want to maximize their tax savings.

Success under the new law requires strategic multi-year planning, including bunching deductions in alternating years and carefully timing major deductible expenses to avoid new limitations while maximizing available benefits.
