SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
Under section 1115 of the Social Security Act (the Act), the
Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) may consider and approve
research and demonstration proposals with a broad range of policy
objectives. These demonstrations can lead to improvements in achieving
the purposes of the Act.
As part of our established procedures, we normally publish a
monthly notice in the Federal Register with a listing of all new
submissions, pending proposals, approvals, disapprovals, and withdrawn
proposals. Proposals submitted in response to a grant solicitation or
other competitive process are reported as received during the month
that such grant or bid is awarded, so as to prevent interference with
the awards process. In the month of December we received no new
proposals and no changes to pending proposals.
II. New, Pending, Approved, and Withdrawn Proposals for the Month
of January 1996
During the month of January 1996 we received no new Comprehensive
Health Reform Programs or Other Section 1115 Demonstration Proposals.
We did not approve or disapprove any proposals during January 1996 nor
were any proposals withdrawn during that month. Pending proposals for
the month of November, 1995 published in the Federal Register on
January 23, 1996, 61 FR 1769, remain unchanged for the month of
January.
III. Requests for Copies of a Proposal
Requests for copies of a specific Medicaid proposal should be made
to the State contact listed for the specific proposal in the notice
published on January 23, 1996. If further help or information is
needed, inquiries should be directed to HCFA at the address above.
