Appendix B - Definitions

Agent
Any person who has been delegated the authority to obligate or act on behalf of a provider. It also means any person who has express or implied authority to obligate or act on behalf of an entity (42 CFR 1001.1001).
Disclosing Entity
The provider or vendor contracting with LIBERTY (other than an individual practitioner).
Indirect Ownership Interest
An ownership interest in an entity that has an ownership interest in the disclosing entity. This term includes an ownership interest in any entity that has an Indirect Ownership Interest in the disclosing entity. It also means an ownership interest through any other entities that ultimately have an ownership interest in the entity in issue (42 CFR 1001.1001). (For example, an individual has a 10 percent ownership interest in the entity at issue if he or she has a 20 percent ownership interest in a corporation that wholly owns a subsidiary that is a 50 percent owner of the entity in issue.)
Managing Employee
A general manager, business manager, administrator, director, or other individual who exercises operational or managerial control over, or who directly or indirectly conducts the day-to-day operation of, an institution, organization, or agency.
Other Disclosing Entity
Any other disclosing entity and any entity that does not participate in Medicaid, but is required to disclose certain ownership and control information because of participation in any of the programs established under title V, XVIII, or XX of the Act. This includes:
  1. Any hospital, skilled nursing facility, home health agency, independent clinical laboratory, renal disease facility, rural health clinic, or health maintenance organization that participates in Medicare;
  2. Any Medicare intermediary or carrier; and
  3. Any entity (other than an individual practitioner) that furnishes, or arranges for the furnishing of, health-related services for which it claims payment under any plan or program established under title V or title XX of the Act.
Example: Other examples include pharmacies, group homes, radiology centers.
Ownership Interest
The possession of equity in the capital, the stock, or the profits of the disclosing entity. It also means an interest in:
  1. The capital, the stock or the profits of the entity, or
  2. Any mortgage, deed, trust or note, or other obligation secured in whole or in part by the property or assets of the entity.
Person with an Ownership or Control Interest
A person or corporation that:
  1. Has an ownership interest totaling 5 percent or more in a disclosing entity;
  2. Has an Indirect Ownership Interest equal to 5 percent or more in a disclosing entity;
  3. Has a combination of direct and Indirect Ownership Interests equal to 5 percent or more in a disclosing entity;
  4. Owns an interest of 5 percent or more in any mortgage, deed of trust, note, or other obligation secured by the disclosing entity if that interest equals at least 5 percent of the value of the property or assets of the disclosing entity;
  5. Is an officer or director of a disclosing entity that is organized as a corporation; or
  6. Is a partner in a disclosing entity that is organized as a partnership?
Example: In order to determine percentage of ownership, mortgage, deed of trust, note, or other obligation, the percentage of interest owned in the obligation is multiplied by the percentage of the disclosing entity’s assets used to secure the obligation. For example, if A owns 10 percent of a note secured by 60 percent of the provider’s assets, A’s interest in the provider’s assets equates to 6 percent and must be reported. Conversely, if B owns 40 percent of a note secured by 10 percent of the provider’s assets, B’s interest in the provider’s assets equates to 4 percent and need not be reported.
Significant Business Transaction
Any business transaction or series of transactions that, during any one fiscal year, exceed the lesser of $25,000 and 5 percent of a provider’s total operating expenses.
Subcontractor
