Audits: On-site with 10–30 days notice; provider cooperates (records, facility, staff); findings may trigger corrective action or recoupment.
Article VI: Term, Renewal & Termination
Term: 1–3 years initial; auto-renewal for 1-year terms unless 90–180 days written non-renewal notice.
Without Cause: 90–180 days written notice; MCO notifies affected members.

Claims deadline: 60–90 days post-termination

Article VIII: Indemnification & Insurance
Mutual Indemnification: Each party indemnifies for its negligence, willful misconduct, breach, or legal violations; includes duty to defend.
Scope Distinction:
Provider: malpractice, negligent treatment, failure to obtain informed consent, improper PHI disclosure — applies even if MCO UM decisions also alleged, provided provider conduct was proximate cause
Jurisdiction-specific: Verify state managed care statutes, prompt payment laws, and insurance filing requirements — timelines and interest rates vary by state
Line of business: For Medicare Advantage, incorporate 42 CFR Part 422 [VERIFY]; for Medicaid managed care, 42 CFR Part 438 [VERIFY] and state Medicaid agency requirements
Accreditation alignment: Ensure contract terms satisfy NCQA/URAC standards if MCO holds or seeks accreditation
Anti-Kickback safe harbors: Structure payment to fit personal services safe harbor (42 CFR § 1001.952(d)) [VERIFY] — fair market value, commercially reasonable, written, specifying services
Do not include specific payment rates without client instructions — use placeholders
Do not draft as if representing both parties — maintain drafter's perspective
Balance billing prohibition must be explicit and unambiguous — required by most state laws and CMS for government programs
Transitional care obligations are often statutorily mandated — verify minimum periods under applicable state law
