SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Gulf of Mexico, South Atlantic, and Caribbean Fishery Management Councils, in conjunction with NOAA Fisheries and the Atlantic and Gulf States Marine Fisheries Commissions, have implemented the Southeast Data, Assessment and Review (SEDAR) process, a multi-step method for determining the status of fish stocks in the Southeast Region. SEDAR is a threestep process including: (1) Data Workshop; (2) Assessment Process utilizing webinars; and (3) Review Workshop. The product of the Data Workshop is a data report which compiles and evaluates potential datasets and recommends which datasets are appropriate for assessment analyses. The product of the Assessment ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with NOTICES1 SUMMARY: VerDate Sep<11>2014 19:49 Aug 01, 2023 Jkt 259001 Process is a stock assessment report which describes the fisheries, evaluates the status of the stock, estimates biological benchmarks, projects future population conditions, and recommends research and monitoring needs. The assessment is independently peer reviewed at the Review Workshop. The product of the Review Workshop is a Summary documenting panel opinions regarding the strengths and weaknesses of the stock assessment and input data. Participants for SEDAR Workshops are appointed by the Gulf of Mexico, South Atlantic, and Caribbean Fishery Management Councils and NOAA Fisheries Southeast Regional Office, Highly Migratory Species Management Division, and Southeast Fisheries Science Center. Participants include: data collectors and database managers; stock assessment scientists, biologists, and researchers; constituency representatives including fishermen, environmentalists, and nongovernmental organizations (NGOs); international experts; and staff of Councils, Commissions, and State and Federal agencies. The items of discussion at the SEDAR 77 HMS Hammerhead Shark Review Workshop are as follows: Participants will evaluate the stock identification, data, and assessment reports, as specified in the Terms of Reference for the workshop, and determine if they are scientifically sound. Although non-emergency issues not contained in this agenda may come before this group for discussion, those issues may not be the subject of formal action during this meeting. Action will be restricted to those issues specifically identified in this notice and any issues arising after publication of this notice that require emergency action under section 305(c) of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act, provided the public has been notified of the intent to take final action to address the emergency.

Notice of demonstration modifications. AGENCY: ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with NOTICES1 ACTION: The Assistant Secretary of Defense for Health Affairs (ASD(HA)) is notifying the public that the TRICARE Childbirth and Breastfeeding Support Demonstration (CBSD) will be modified for implementation to the TRICARE Overseas Program (TOP). Additionally, the ASD(HA) is notifying the public that SUMMARY: VerDate Sep<11>2014 19:49 Aug 01, 2023 Jkt 259001 due to current financial constraints, all or part of the evaluation of the CBSD may be conducted by internal DoD analytics staff. DATES: The CBSD will expand overseas with the modifications discussed in this notice on January 1, 2025. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Erica Ferron, 303–676–3626, erica.c.ferron.civ@health.mil. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: A. Background Section 746 of the William M. (Mac) Thornberry National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2021 directed the Secretary of Defense to establish a five-year demonstration project under TRICARE to evaluate the cost, quality of care, and impact on maternal and fetal outcomes of covering the services of doulas and lactation consultants or counselors not otherwise TRICARE-authorized, and to determine whether it would be appropriate to implement permanent coverage. On October 29, 2021, the ASD(HA) published a Federal Register Notice (FRN) announcing the CBSD (86 Federal Register (FR) 60006), which began nationwide in the United States (U.S.) on January 1, 2022, and will expand to include overseas beneficiaries and locations on January 1, 2025. The FRN announced that the CBSD was designed to evaluate the following hypotheses: (1) Access to doulas will have a positive and measurable impact on maternal and fetal outcomes. (2) Access to lactation consultants and lactation counselors will have the same or better impact on maternal and fetal outcomes when compared to the same services provided by other TRICAREauthorized providers. (3) The cost of providing access to such providers is justified by the impact of the providers on maternal and fetal outcomes. (4) It is feasible to administer the new provider classes and the services they provide. The FRN specified that coverage would be provided under private sector care and excluded care provided in direct care within Military Medical Treatment Facilities (MTFs). To participate, beneficiaries were required to be enrolled in Prime or Select with one of the managed care support contractors (MCSCs). TRICARE for Life, the Uniformed Services Family Health Plan, the Continued Health Care Benefit Program beneficiaries were excluded from participation. Beginning January 1, 2025, beneficiaries in Prime (including Prime Remote) and Select enrolled to PO 00000 Frm 00018 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 the TOP contractor will be eligible to participate. The demonstration created a new benefit category (childbirth support services) and added three new extramedical maternity care provider classes (Certified Labor Doulas (CLDs), Certified Lactation Consultants, and Certified Lactation Counselors). It also created qualification criteria for the new provider classes, established benefit limitations, added group breastfeeding counseling sessions to the existing individual breastfeeding counseling benefit, and established reimbursement methodologies. B. Maternity Care Under the TOP Each year, approximately 60,000 beneficiaries give birth under the MCSCs in private sector care facilities in the United States. The number of beneficiaries who give birth overseas under the TOP program is comparatively very small. Based on claims data for calendar year (CY) 2022, TRICARE beneficiaries enrolled with the TOP contractor gave birth 1,093 times in private sector care facilities in 41 countries. Over half of those deliveries occurred in Germany, with the next most frequent locations for deliveries being Italy, South Korea, the U.S. (TOP beneficiaries electing to deliver in one of the 50 states or District of Columbia), Puerto Rico, and Japan. These six locations accounted for 87 percent of deliveries under TOP. Of the 34 remaining countries, 13 had only one delivery, and another nine only had two deliveries in 2022. In 2021, the top six locations were the same, but there were 14 countries that had a delivery in 2021 that did not have one in 2022 while there were births in 15 countries in 2022 for which a birth was not recorded in 2021. In other words, there is a small group of countries within which the DoD can reliably expect most TOP deliveries to occur and a larger number of countries in which a small number of deliveries may occur. Expansion of the demonstration overseas accounts for this variability as well as the overall smaller number of deliveries overseas. C. CBSD Modifications for Implementation Overseas This FRN notifies the public that the DoD intends to modify the CBSD for overseas implementation by way of guidance to be published to the TRICARE manuals (found at manuals.health.mil). These changes are expected to impact some or all of the requirements published in the initial CBSD FRN and are intended to facilitate the DoD’s ability to measure the CBSD hypotheses. The DoD’s focus for overseas implementation will be testing E:\FR\FM\02AUN1.SGM 02AUN1
