UEFFECTIVE AND BINDING AGREEMENT. Practitioner and OIG agree as follows: A. This IA shall become final and binding on the date the final signature is obtained on the IA. B. This IA constitutes the complete agreement between the parties and may not be amended except by written consent of the parties to this IA. C. OIG may agree to a suspension of Practitioner’s obligations under this IA based on a certification by Practitioner that he is no longer providing health care items or services that will be billed to any Federal health care program and he does not have any ownership or control interest, as defined in 42 U.S.C. §1320a-3, in any entity that bills any Federal health care program. If Practitioner is relieved of his IA obligations, Practitioner shall be required to notify OIG in writing at least 30 days in advance if Practitioner plans to resume providing health care items or services that are billed to any Federal health care program or to obtain an ownership or control interest in any entity that bills any Federal health care program. At such time, OIG shall evaluate whether the IA will be reactivated or modified. D. All requirements and remedies set forth in this IA are in addition to and do not affect: (1) Practitioner’s responsibility to follow all applicable Federal health care program requirements or (2) the government’s right to impose appropriate remedies for failure to follow applicable Federal health care program requirements. E. The undersigned Practitioner signatory represents and warrants that he is authorized to execute this IA. The undersigned OIG signatories represent that they are signing this IA in their official capacity and that they are authorized to execute this IA. F. This IA may be executed in counterparts, each of which constitutes an original and all of which constitute one and the same IA. Electronically-transmitted copies of signatures shall constitute acceptable, binding signatures for purposes of this IA. /▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇/ 8/24/2020 ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, PT DATE /▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇/ 8/24/20 ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ESQ.
