SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

The VA published a document in the Federal Register on January 6, 2000, 65 FR 23412, revising its medical regulations concerning payment of per diem to State homes that provide nursing home care to eligible veterans. In that document, we failed to properly punctuate the end of § 17.190(c). This document corrects that error by removing “, and” and adding, in its place, a period.
