Medicare and Medicaid programs; quarterly listing of program issuances and coverage decisions--first quarter 1993--HCFA. Notice.

This notice lists HCFA manual instructions, substantive and interpretive regulations and other Federal Register notices, and statements of policy that were published during January, February, and March 1993 that relate to the Medicare and Medicaid programs. Section 1871(c) of the Social Security Act requires that we publish a list of Medicare issuances in the Federal Register at least every 3 months. Although we are not mandated to do so by statute, for the sake of completeness of the listing, we are including all Medicaid issuances and Medicare and Medicaid substantive and interpretive regulations (proposed and final) published during this timeframe. There are no revisions to the Medicare Coverage Issues Manual this quarter. However, two notices were published in the Federal Register during the first quarter of 1993 that announced changes made to the Medicare Coverage Issues Manual before to January 1, 1993.
