A. CERTIFICATION STATEMENT

any change in the business structure of this supplier may require the submission of a new application.
3. I have read and understand the Penalties for Falsifying Information, as printed in this application.

administrative penalties including, but not limited to, the denial or revocation of Medicare identification
number(s), and/or the imposition of fines, civil damages, and/or imprisonment.
4. I agree to abide by the Medicare laws, regulations and program instructions that apply to me or to
the organization listed in Section 1B of this application. The Medicare laws, regulations, and program

or excluded by Medicare or any state health care program (e.g., Medicaid program), or any other federal
program, or is otherwise prohibited from supplying services to Medicare or other federal program
beneficiaries. 6. I agree that any existing or future overpayment made to the supplier by the Medicare
program may be recouped by Medicare through the withholding of future payments.
7. I will not knowingly present or cause to be presented a false or fraudulent claim for payment by
Medicare, and will not submit claims with deliberate ignorance or reckless disregard of their truth or
falsity.
8. I authorize any national accrediting body whose standards are recognized by the Secretary as meeting
the Medicare program participation requirements, to release to any authorized representative,
employee, or agent of Medicare a copy of my most recent accreditation survey, together with any
information related to the survey that Medicare may require (including corrective action plans).
