Purpose of Fixed Asset AppraisalsCompliance: Stark Law
• Also called the “physician self-referral law”
• Prohibits a physician from making referrals for designated health services to entities in which the physician (or a family member) has a financial relationship
• Designated Health Services (DHS)
- Currently 12 health services
- Includes hospital inpatient and outpatient services, as well as clinical lab, physical and occupational therapy, radiology, certain imaging, DME, home health and various other servicesand supplies
• Is a “strict liability” law
• Contains various “safe harbors”
• Provisions enforced by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), although Department of Justice adjudicates false claims arising from violations of the Stark Law

Purpose of Fixed Asset AppraisalsCompliance: Stark Law
Stark Law Definition of Fair Market Value:
The value in arm’s-length transactions, consistent with the general market value. “General market value” means the price that an asset would bring as a result of bona fide bargaining between well-informed parties to the agreement who are not otherwise in a position to generate business for the other party, on the date of acquisition of the asset or at the time of the service agreement. Usually, the fair market price is the price at which bona fide sales have been consummated for assets of like type, quality, and quantity in a particular market at the time of acquisition, or the compensation that has been included in bona fide service agreements with comparable terms at the time of the agreement, where the price or compensation has not been determined in any manner that takes into account the volume or value of anticipated referrals.

Purpose of Fixed Asset AppraisalsCompliance: Anti-Kickback Statute (AKS)
• Anti-Kickback Law prohibits the payment or receipt of remuneration to induce or reward referrals for Medicare or Medicaid services
• Criminal statute that requires proof of “intent”, i.e., knowingly and willfully paying for referrals
• If one purpose of the payment is to induce referrals, then the AKS is violated, even if there are other legitimate business reasons for the payment
• Contains various “safe harbors”
• Enforced by the Office of Inspector General (OIG) and the Department of Justice (DOJ)

The Appraisal ProcessSTANDARDS OF VALUEFair Market Value or Fair Value
PREMISE OF VALUEPremise of value is an assumption about the likely set of transactional circumstances that can be applicable in the valuation process.
1. Sale for Removal - for a similar or alternate use
•Fair Market Value
•Fair Market Value – Removed
2. Continued (or As Installed) - use of the asset for the purpose for which it was designed and acquired
• Fair Market Value In Continued Use
• Fair Market Value Installed
3. Liquidation
• Orderly Liquidation Value
• Forced Liquidation Value
• Liquidation Value in Place

• Detail Method (includes all direct & indirect costs)
- Direct Costs include: Materials/equipment, labor, installation, etc.
- Indirect Costs include: Professional fees, administrative fees, temporary insurance, licenses/permits, typical finance charges (during construction), equipment rental, etc.

MARKET APPROACH
Indication of value by analyzing recent sales (or offerings) or properties that are similar to the subject property.
Where data comes from:
• Online Used Marketplace (e.g., ebay, Dotmed, MedWow)
• Online Dealers (e.g., Block Imaging, Alarka Medical, Office Pros)
• Manufacturers
• Internal Databases

The Appraisal Process: AnalysisElement of Comparability: Direct Match or Comparable Match
Factors to consider
If the item is a comparable match, then the appraiser will make adjustments when necessary to account for any differences. The appraiser may also make adjustments based on the definition of value being used in the appraisal.
Age or Effective Age Manufacturer Type of Sale
Condition Motivation Time of Sale
Capacity Price

• Difficult or impossible to identify an income stream of an individual item
