title: Medicare program; Medicare as secondary payer and Medicare recovery against third parties--HCFA. Final rule; reinstatement of regulations.
abstract: This rule amends final regulations published on October 11, 1989, at 54 FR 41716 in order to replace changes that were intended to clarify policy, but have been interpreted by some readers as expressing substantive policy changes. With the exception of updated cross-references, we therefore are reissuing language that was in effect before the effective date of the October 11, 1989 final rule.
