programs; and be consistent with the
beginning of the new fiscal year for
Federal agencies. Given the imminence
of the current effective date, seeking
prior public comment on this temporary
delay would be impractical. Further,
given the risk of inconsistency and
confusion from the imposition of
divergent requirements across federal
agencies, it has been determined that
seeking prior comment on this
temporary delay would be contrary to
the public interest. The imminence of
the effective date is also good cause for
making this rule effective immediately
upon publication.
DOT’s rule is expected to issue in
time to go into effect by October 1, 2010;
however, should it later appear that
DOT regulations may not issue in time
for an October 1, 2010 implementation,
SAMHSA will undertake notice and
comment rulemaking to delay the
effective date further.
No other changes to the Mandatory
Guidelines have been made. The new
effective date for the revisions to the
HHS Mandatory Guidelines is October
1, 2010.
Dated: April 26, 2010.

Providers must submit the cost data to

report is to determine the

FI/MAC uses the cost report to make
settlement with the provider for the
fiscal period covered by the cost report.
Furthermore, the FI/MAC uses the cost
report to determine the necessity and
scope of an audit of the records of the
provider. CMS uses the data collected
on the MCR to project future Medicare
expenditures, determine adequate
deductibles and premiums, and develop
and update provider market baskets
mandated for use in updating Medicare
payment rates. CMS also uses the data
to offer public use data files. Revisions
made to update the forms currently in
use are incorporated within this request
for approval. Form Number: CMS–
