SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Background Sections 1866(a)(1)(I), 1866(a)(1)(N), and 1867 of the Social Security Act (the Act) impose specific obligations on Medicare-participating hospitals that offer emergency services. These obligations concern individuals who come to a hospital emergency department and request or have a request made on their behalf for examination or treatment for a medical condition. EMTALA applies to all these individuals, regardless of whether or not they are beneficiaries of any program under the Act. Section 1867 of the Act sets forth requirements for medical screening examinations for emergency medical conditions, as well as necessary stabilizing treatment or appropriate transfer. Regulations implementing the EMTALA legislation are set forth at 42 CFR 489.20(l), (m), (q) and (r)(1), (r)(2), (r)(3), and 489.24. Section 945 of the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement, and Modernization Act of PO 00000 Frm 00036 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 28541 2003 (MMA) (Pub. L. 108–173), requires that the Secretary establish a Technical Advisory Group (TAG) for advice concerning issues related to EMTALA regulations and implementation. Section 945 of the MMA specifies that the EMTALA TAG— • Review the EMTALA regulations; • Provide advice and recommendations to the Secretary concerning these regulations and their application to hospitals and physicians; • Solicit comments and recommendations from hospitals, physicians, and the public regarding implementation of these regulations; and • Disseminate information concerning the application of these regulations to hospitals, physicians, and the public. The EMTALA TAG, as chartered under the legal authority of section 945 of the MMA, is also governed by the provisions of the Federal Advisory Committee Act (FACA) (5 U.S.C. Appendix 2) for the selection of members and the conduct of all meetings. In the May 28, 2004 Federal Register (69 FR 30654), we specified the statutory requirements regarding the charter, general responsibilities, and structure of the EMTALA TAG. That notice also solicited nominations for members based on the statutory requirements for the EMTALA TAG. We received no nominations. In the August 27, 2004 Federal Register (69 FR 52699), we again solicited nominations for members in two categories (patient representatives and a State survey agency representative.) In the March 15, 2005 Federal Register (70 FR 12691), we announced the inaugural meeting of the EMTALA TAG and the membership selection. II. Meeting Format, Agenda, and Suggested Presentation Topics A. Meeting Format The initial portion of the meeting (convening at 11 a.m. on June 15) will involve opening remarks and presentations by CMS staff, as requested by the TAG, followed by testimony from representatives of organizations invited to present information on specific topics. TAG members will have the opportunity to ask questions, prioritize the topics presented, and to conduct other necessary business. At the conclusion of each day’s meeting, to the extent that time is available and at the discretion of the Chairperson, the public will be permitted a reasonable time to comment on issues being considered by the TAG.
