CMS Proposes Clarification of CMP Uses and Approval Process CMS has proposed clarification of Civil Monetary Penalties (CMPs) uses and approval process. The proposed rule provides clarification of statutory requirements under Section 6111 of the Affordable Care Act regarding approval and use of CMPs imposed by CMS against nursing facilities. CMS clarified that states may use federal CMP funds only after obtaining prior approval from CMS and may not use these funds if CMS has disapproved their intended use, or use these funds for purposes other than to support activities that benefit residents as specified in statute.
