Regulatory
Removal of Obsolete Portion of Regulation Relating to Care and Treatment of Ineligible Individuals
Issued by Health and Human Services Department
What the record says
The Indian Health Service (IHS) of the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS or "the Department") is issuing this final rule to remove obsolete language appearing in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR). The language refers to an outdated process for determining what the IHS will charge for care to non-IHS-beneficiaries. Eliminating this obsolete language will not change IHS's existing practices or authorities.
