SCOTTSDALE, AZ—Developers are offering alternative solutions, such as credit-tenant leasing arrangements. Those arrangements provide the healthcare provider the benefits of ownership upon the expiration of the lease term. In addition, the new timeshare exception is impacting providers to reconsider how timeshare arrangements are currently structured.
At RealShare Healthcare's session titled: “Navigating Change: The New Rules Impacting Leasing Arrangements” panelists discussed how developers are working with facility managers and tenants to meet these new challenges and explore potential opportunities.
Speaker Melinda Pasquini, shareholder at Polsinelli, briefly discussed changes to the Stark Law with attendees. Enacted more than two decades ago with the simple purpose of curbing physician self-referral, Stark Law has evolved into a complex set of regulations, which some argue impede efforts to transition away from a fee-for-service system. Pasquini focused on the importance of knowing the exceptions of the law such as things like fair market value. “While some of the rules have loosened up, the exceptions are really something to be aware of.”
