Reps. Burgess, Schwartz Bill Would Exempt Indirect Payments For CME From Reporting-insidehealthpolicy: Reps. Michael Burgess (R-TX) and Allyson Schwartz (D-PA) introduced bipartisan legislation Friday (Sept. 19) that would exempt indirect payments that drug and device manufacturers offer to continuing medical education providers from sunshine reporting requirements, legislation that if enacted would reverse CMS' plan to do away with the exemption.
