  • Title: Medicaid Program; Medicaid eligibility quality control, progressive reductions in federal financial participation for FYs 1982-84, payment for physician billing for clinical laboratory services, and utilization control of skilled nursing facility services: removal of obsolete requirements--HCFA. Final rule.
    Journal: Fed Regist; 1996 Jul 24; 61(143):38395-9. PubMed ID: 10159145.
    Abstract:
    This final rule removes several obsolete sections of the Medicaid regulations that specify rules and procedures for disallowing Federal financial participation for erroneous medical assistance payments due to eligibility and beneficiary liability errors as detected through the Medicaid eligibility quality control program for assessment periods from 1980 through June 1990. The Medicaid regulations that contain the rules and procedures for the progressive reductions in Federal financial participation in medical assistance expenditures made to the States for fiscal years 1982 through 1984 are removed to reflect the repeal of the statutory bases for the reductions. The Medicaid regulations that provide for physician billing for clinical laboratory services that a physician bills or pays for but did not personally perform or supervise are removed to reflect the statutory repeal of this provision. In addition, the rule removes obsolete regulations that prescribe requirements concerning utilization control of Medicaid services furnished in skilled nursing facilities. This rule is part of the Department's initiate to reinvent health care regulations and eliminate obsolete requirements.
