Notice of Interest Rate on Overdue
Debts
Section 30.18 of the Department of
Health and Human Services’ claims
collection regulations (45 CFR part 30)
provides that the Secretary shall charge
an annual rate of interest, which is
determined and fixed by the Secretary
of the Treasury after considering private
consumer rates of interest on the date
that the Department of Health and
Human Services becomes entitled to
recovery. The rate cannot be lower than
the Department of Treasury’s current
value of funds rate or the applicable rate
determined from the ‘‘Schedule of
Certified Interest Rates with Range of
VerDate Sep<11>2014
17:30 Apr 20, 2017
Jkt 241001
Maturities’’ unless the Secretary waives
interest in whole or part, or a different
rate is prescribed by statute, contract, or
repayment agreement. The Secretary of
the Treasury may revise this rate
quarterly. The Department of Health and
Human Services publishes this rate in
the Federal Register.
The current rate of 10%, as fixed by
the Secretary of the Treasury, is certified
for the quarter ended March 31, 2017.
This rate is based on the Interest Rates
for Specific Legislation, ‘‘National
Health Services Corps Scholarship
Program (42 U.S.C. 254o(b)(1)(A))’’ and
‘‘National Research Service Award
Program (42 U.S.C. 288(c)(4)(B)).’’ This
interest rate will be applied to overdue
debt until the Department of Health and
Human Services publishes a revision.
Dated: April 11, 2017.

Office of the Secretary
Opioids were responsible for over
33,000 deaths in 2015; this alarming
statistic is unacceptable. Through a
sustained focus on people, patients, and
partnerships, this crisis can be
addressed across our nation.
Last month President Trump
announced the President’s Commission
on Combating Drug Addiction and the
Opioid Crisis. This Commission is
tasked with studying the scope and
effectiveness of the federal response to
this crisis and providing
recommendations to the President for
improving it. As the Administration
develops a comprehensive strategy to
improve the federal response to combat
opioids, the U.S. Department of Health
and Human Services (HHS) must ensure
the Opioid State Targeted Response
grants are aligned accordingly and put
to the best use possible. Given the
urgency of the issue, we understand the
need to release the funding for the first
year of this program immediately.
However, the intentions of HHS for the
second year are to develop funding
allocations and policies that are the
most clinically sound, effective and
efficient.
In the interest of ensuring that these
resources are applied in the best manner
possible, I will be seeking input from

the states/territories in the coming
weeks and months. As funding from the
first year is implemented and
monitored, states/territories will be
asked to identify best practices, lessons
learned, and key strategies that can help
HHS further target these funds in the
subsequent year to best address this
tragic issue.

Secretary.
