Medicare program; hospice care and prospective payment for Medicare inpatient hospital services; correction--HCFA. Correction to final rules.
This document corrects errors that appeared in the final rule on hospice care published on December 16, 1983 (48 FR 56008) and the final rule on the prospective payment system for inpatient hospital services published on January 3, 1984 (49 FR 234). The former rule implemented section 122 of Pub . L. 97-248 providing coverage for hospice care and responded to comments received on a proposed rule published August 22, 1983 (48 FR 38146). The latter final rule amended, in response to public comments received, the interim final rule published on September 1, 1983 (48 FR 39752). In certain instances, we have made nonsubstantive changes in the prospective payment regulations text for purposes of clarification.
