Medicare and Medicaid programs; redesignation of rules concerning federal requirements for health maintenance organizations--HCFA. Final rule.
This rule moves the regulations that implement title XIII of the Public Health Service Act from 42 CFR Part 110 to a new Subpart A of 42 CFR Part 417. We are moving these regulations, which generally govern Federal qualification and Federal aid for health maintenance organizations (HMOs), to HCFA's regulations because the authority to administer these regulations has been transferred from the Public Health Service to HCFA.
