ACTION: Final rule; correction.
AGENCY:
This document corrects a
technical error that appeared in the final
rule published in the Federal Register
on November 27, 2006 entitled
‘‘Medicare Program; Notification of
Hospital Discharge Appeal Rights.’’ This
document is a supplement to the
November 27, 2006 final rule.
DATES: Effective Date: This correction
notice is effective on July 1, 2007.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Tim
Roe, (410) 786–2006.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:
In the November 27, 2006 final rule,
on page 68719, we included a table that
contained an incorrect entry in one row,
also resulting in an incorrect aggregate
burden amount. This notice will correct
those errors.
III. Correction of Errors
Make the following corrections to the
November 27, 2006 final rule (71 FR
68708):
1. On page 68719, in the table—
A. In the fifth column, in the third
entry, change the annual burden hours
from ‘‘140,834’’ to ‘‘130,000.’’
B. In the fifth column, in the fourth
entry, change the annual burden hours
from ‘‘2,914,168’’ to ‘‘2,903,334.’’
The revised table should read as
follows:
AGGREGATE HOURLY BURDEN FOR THIS REQUIREMENT
Time per
delivery
(minutes)
Notices
First IM .................................................................
Copy of IM ...........................................................
Detailed Notice .....................................................

2. On page 68719, in the first column,
in line 3, change the annual burden
hours from 2,914,618 to 2,903,334.

IV. Waiver of Proposed Rulemaking
We ordinarily publish a notice of
proposed rulemaking in the Federal
Register to provide a period for public
comment before the provisions of a rule
take effect in accordance with section
553(b) of the Administrative Procedure
Act (APA) (5 U.S.C. 553(b)). However,
we can waive this procedure if the
Secretary finds, for good cause, that the
notice and comment process is
impracticable, unnecessary, or contrary
to the public interest, and incorporates
a statement of finding and the reasons
therefore in the notice.
The revisions in this document
merely correct inadvertent technical
errors. The revisions help ensure that
the rules governing the Medicare
administrative appeals process are more
understandable and less ambiguous and

protect the rights of all parties to pursue
Medicare claims appeals under these
procedures. For this reason, and because
these technical corrections are not
substantive in nature, we find that
undertaking notice and comment
rulemaking to incorporate these
corrections into the final rule is
unnecessary and contrary to the public
interest.
