title: Medicare program; conditions of participation for home intravenous drug therapy providers--HCFA. Proposed rule.
abstract: This proposed rule sets forth the conditions of participation that an entity would be required to meet in order to qualify as a home intravenous drug therapy provider. This proposal would implement the provisions of section 1861(jj)(3) of the Social Security Act, which was added by section 203(b) of the Medicare Catastrophic Coverage Act of 1988. An entity that meets these conditions of participation would be eligible for payment from Medicare for covered home IV drug therapy services furnished to Medicare beneficiaries.
