Federal Claims Collection Act; claims collection and compromise--HCFA. Final rule with comment period.
These regulations implement the Federal Claims Collection Act, which provides authority to Federal agencies for collecting or compromising claims, or suspending or terminating collection action, as appropriate. This authority can be exercised only through agency regulations that conform to the regulations on claims collection (4 CFR Parts 101-105) issued jointly by the Comptroller General and the Attorney General. We intend these regulations to enable HCF to exercise full claims collection authority for all HCF programs, as delegated by the Secretary of HHS.
