other federal programs, and for

Critical Access Hospitals) on a
reasonable cost basis. Since the

do not include all physician services

payment shall be available to the extent
that those services are provided.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Coast
Guard announces the designation of the
New England Commission of Higher

entity’’ under 10 U.S.C. 1589 and 1033.
The Coast Guard also announces the
participation of the Coast Guard
Academy Provost Dr. Amy Donhue in
the management of the entity as a
Commisioner. Sections 1589 and 1033
allow the Secretary of the Department of
Homeland Security to specify certain
non-federal entities as ‘‘designated
entities’’ in which a member of the
armed forces or a civilian employee may
be authorized to participate in a specific
capacity. The Secretary delegated this
authority to the Commandant of the
Coast Guard through the Department of
Homeland Security Delegation No.
00170.1, Revision No. 01.3 (paragraph
II.14).
A ‘‘designated entity’’ must meet the
requirements of 10 U.S.C. 1033. In
relevant part, section 1033 requires an
entity to be a non-profit oganization and
perform one of the statutorily
enumerated functions, including
accreditation of service academies and
other schools of the armed forces.
NECHE is a voluntary non-government
association that provides accreditation
to the U.S. Coast Guard Academy.
Therefore, NECHE is an entity that may
be designated under 10 U.S.C. 1033 and,
in turn, 10 U.S.C. 1589.
Section 1589 also allows the Secretary
concerned to authorize an employee,
including a civilian officer, to

advice to, and coordination with that
designated entity. An employee’s
participation may not extend to the day
to day operations of the entity. The
Coast Guard Academy announces the
authorization of Dr. Amy Donahue, the
Provost of the Coast Guard Academy, to
participate in the management of
NECHE within limits of 10 U.S.C. 1033
and 10 U.S.C. 1589. Specifically, and in
