Medicaid program; reduction in error rate tolerance beginning October 1, 1983; Medicaid quality control program--HCFA. Proposed rule.
This proposed rule would revise current Medicaid regulations and establish new regulations concerning the disallowance of Federal financial participation to States whose eligibility payment error rate for Medicaid, as measured by the Medicaid quality control system, exceeds the 3-percent national standard. Specifically, the proposed rule would provide that the current regulations regarding the 3-percent national standard apply only to the period April 1, 1983 through September 30, 1983. The proposed rule would also establish regulations that would apply to periods beginning October 1, 1983. These modifications to the regulations are based on and implement the provisions of section 133 of the Tax Equity and Fiscal Responsibility Act of 1982 (Pub. L. 97-248).
