Protection and Affordable Care Act of 2010 which directs the Secretary
of Health and Human Services to issue Medicaid regulations effective as of
July 1, 2011 prohibiting Federal payments to States under section 1903
of the Social Security Act for any amounts expended for providing
medical assistance for health care-acquired conditions. It would also
authorize States to identify other provider-preventable conditions for
which Medicaid payment would be prohibited.DATES: To be assured consideration, comments must be received at one of the addresses provided below, no later than 5 p.m. on March 18, 2011.
