Title 32 CFR 199.14(a)(1)(iv)(B): Adoption of Medicare’s Hospital Value Based Purchasing Program. E. The Department is evaluating certain temporary provisions adopted in the IFRs not yet finalized in a final rule (specifically, temporary coverage of the treatment use of investigational drugs approved under FDA expanded access program, NIAID-sponsored clinical trials, and NCTAPs). If the ASD(HA) determines permanent changes to the regulation are required, such changes would be announced in future final rules. The effective date of such coverage would be announced in the final rule.
