| 01-20714 | Medicaid Program; Medicaid Managed Care; Further Delay of Effective Date | Rule | This document further delays the effective date of the final rule with comment period on Medicaid managed care that we published in the Federal Register on January 19, 2001 (66 FR 6228). The January 2001 final rule with comment period, if it had taken effect, would have combined most of the regulatory provisions relating to Medicaid managed care into a new part in 42 CFR, and would have implemented Medicaid managed care requirements of the Balanced Budget Act of 1997 (Pub. L. 105-33). In a Federal Register final rule (66 FR 11546) published on February 26, 2001, we delayed the effective date of the January 2001 rule from April 19, 2001 until June 18, 2001. On June 18, 2001, we published another final rule in the Federal Register that delayed the effective date of the January 2001 final rule from June 18, 2001 until August 17, 2001 (66 FR 32776). This document further delays the effective date of the January 2001 final rule from August 17, 2001 until August 16, 2002. In addition, this document gives the public an opportunity to comment on the length of the delay of effective date. These delays were necessary to give newly appointed Department officials the opportunity for further review and consideration of the new regulations. During these delays, we have heard from key stakeholders in the Medicaid managed care program, including States, advocates for beneficiaries, and provider organizations. These stakeholders expressed strong (sometimes opposing) views about the regulation. In particular, concerns were expressed about revisions made in the final rule that were based on public comments we received on the September 29, 1998 proposed rule (63 FR 52022). Other commenters raised concerns about how we chose to implement those provisions in the final rule without further opportunity for public comment. We are publishing in the August 20, 2001 issue of the Federal Register another proposed rule allowing an additional opportunity for public comment on revised Medicaid managed care provisions. | 2001-08-17 | 2001 | 8 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2001/08/17/01-20714/medicaid-program-medicaid-managed-care-further-delay-of-effective-date | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2001-08-17/pdf/01-20714.pdf | Health and Human Services Department; Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services | 221,45 | This document further delays the effective date of the final rule with comment period on Medicaid managed care that we published in the Federal Register on January 19, 2001 (66 FR 6228).
