  • Title: Medicare program; payment for covered outpatient drugs--HCFA. Proposed rule.
    Journal: Fed Regist; 1989 Sep 07; 54(172):37208-20. PubMed ID: 10303827.
    Abstract:
    This proposed rule sets forth the methodology for determining payment for covered outpatient drugs under the new catastrophic drug benefit. This proposal would implement sections 1834(c)(2),(3), and (4) of the Social Security Act as added by section 202(b) of the Medicare Catastrophic Coverage Act of 1988. Coverage of and payment for these covered outpatient drugs under Part B of Medicare would be implemented on January 1, 1990 for drugs used in immunosuppressive therapy and covered home intravenous (IV) drugs and on January 1, 1991 for all other drugs.
