    Journal: Fed Regist; 1989 Sep 07; 54(172):37422-38. PubMed ID: 10303831.
    Abstract:
    These proposed regulations would expand coverage under Medicare part B to include coverage of home intravenous (IV) drug therapy services as authorized by section 203 of the Medicare Catastrophic Coverage Act of 1988. They include requirements for certification and for review and approval of the need for the covered services by a peer review organization, and they place limits on acceptance of and payments for certain patient referrals for covered home IV drug therapy services as specified in the statute. Home IV drug therapy services are covered by Medicare beginning January 1, 1990.
