DSRIP Regulatory Waiver Summary and Open Networks
DSRIP Regulatory Waivers Provide Opportunity for Members
Delivery System Reform Incentive Payment (DSRIP) Performing Provider System (PPS) participants can request waivers of regulation to facilitate implementation of DSRIP projects. The Department of Health (DOH) has posted a one-page summary and update of the Regulatory Waivers requested as well as their disposition on the requests.

Regulatory waiver requests for DSRIP projects will be open and processed on a quarterly basis throughout the DSRIP Demonstration Years.
