ACTION: Correction Notice of Final Rule 

with Comment Period. 

SUMMARY: This correction notice 

corrects several technical and 

typographical errors in the final rule 

with comment period that appeared in 

the November 27, 2007 Federal Register 

(72 FR 66222). The final rule with 

comment period addressed Medicare 

Part B payment policy, including the 

physician fee schedule (PFS) that is 

applicable for calendar year (CY) 2008; 

the competitive acquisition program 

(CAP); clinical lab fee schedule issues; 

performance standards for diagnostic 

testing facilities; conforming and 

clarifying changes for comprehensive 

outpatient rehabilitation facilities 

(CORFs); physician self-referral issues; 

and standards and requirements related 

to therapy services under Medicare 

Parts A and B. The final rule with 

comment period also updated the list of 

services subject to the physician selfreferral prohibitions. 

EFFECTIVE DATE: This correction notice is 

effective January 1, 2008. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Diane Milstead, (410) 786–3355. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

In FR Doc. 07–5506 of November 27, 

2007 (72 FR 66222) (hereinafter referred 

to as the CY 2008 PFS final rule with 

comment period), there were a number 

of technical and typographical errors 

that are identified and corrected in the 

Correction of Errors section of this 

notice. The provisions of this notice are 

effective as if they had been included in 

the CY 2008 PFS final rule with 

comment period. Accordingly, the 

corrections are effective January 1, 2008. 

II. Summary of Errors 

A. Errors in the Preamble 

On page 66276, the third column, the 

third paragraph, lines are 10 through 13, 

the sentence ‘‘It is not unusual for us to 

provide for discretionary reopening or 

reconsideration of final agency action’’ 

is deleted because the sentence was 

inadvertently repeated. 

On page 66392, Table 40, Impact of 

Final Rule with Comment Period and 

Estimated Physician Update on 2008 

Payment for Selected Procedures, the 

columns for 2008 payment amount and 

the percent change for both facility and 

non-facility are corrected due to a 

methodological error. 

B. Errors in the Addenda 

On pages 66410 through 66543, 

Addendum B, Relative Value Units and 

Related Information Used in 

Determining Medicare Payments for 

2008, incorrect PE RVUs were listed for 

many CPT codes due to a 

methodological error. Therefore, for the 

convenience of health care providers 

and the public, we are republishing 

Addendum B in its entirety. In addition, 

the work RVUs are corrected for CPT 

code 67113 and the status indicator, 

work RVUs, and malpractice RVUs are 

corrected for CPT code 93503 in this 

revised addendum. 

On pages 66543 through 66545, 

Addendum C, Codes with Interim 

RVUs, incorrect PE RVUs were listed for 

many CPT codes due to a 

methodological error. Therefore, for the 

convenience of health care providers 

and the public, we are republishing 

Addendum C in its entirety. 

On pages 66545 through 66546, 

Addendum D, 2008 Geographic 

Adjustment Factors (GAFs), we 

identified errors in the data used to 

calculate the GAFs, and therefore, we 

are republishing Addendum D in its 

entirety. 

On pages 66546 through 66547, 

Addendum E, 2008 * * * Geographic 

Practice Cost Indices by State and 

Medicare Locality, we identified errors 

in the data used to calculate the 

Geographic Practice Cost Indices 

(GPCIs), and therefore, we are 

republishing Addendum E in its 

entirety. 

On pages 66575 through 66578, 

Addendum I, List of CPT1/HCPCS 

Codes Used to Describe Certain 

Designated Health Service Categories 2

Under Section 1877 of the Social 

Security Act, Correction to Addendum I, 

we incorrectly included CPT code 

0147T and its short descriptor within 

the short descriptor for CPT code 0146T, 

and CPT code 71015 and its short 

descriptor within the short descriptor 

for CPT code 71010. Therefore, we are 

republishing the entries for CPT 0146T, 

0147T, 71010, and 71015 on separate 

lines. We are removing CPT codes 

75558, 75560, 75562, and 75564 because 

these codes are considered non-covered 

services and were incorrectly included 

on the Code List. We are removing 

HCPCS code C2637 because it is paid 

for as part of an ASC service and should 

not have been included on the Code 

List. (We note that when provided in an 

inpatient or outpatient hospital setting, 

this source is considered to be a 

Designated Health Service.) In addition, 

the short descriptor for the HCPCS code 

G0103 was incorrect, and therefore, we 

are revising. Also, we omitted CPT code 

76801 and we are adding it to 

Addendum I.

IV. Waiver of Proposed Rulemaking 

and Delay in Effective Date 

We ordinarily publish a notice of 

proposed rulemaking in the Federal 

Register to provide a period for public 

comment before the provisions of a rule 

take effect in accordance with section 

553(b) of the Administrative Procedure 

Act (APA) (5 U.S.C. 553(b)). However, 

we can waive the notice and comment 

procedures if the Secretary finds, for 

good cause, that the notice and 

comment process is impracticable, 

unnecessary or contrary to the public 

interest, and incorporates a statement of 

the finding and the reasons therefore in 

the rule. 

Section 553(d) of the APA ordinarily 

requires a 30-day delay in effective date 

of final rules after the date of their 

publication. This 30-day delay in 

effective date can be waived, however, 

if an agency finds for good cause that 

the delay is impracticable, unnecessary, 

or contrary to the public interest, and 

the agency incorporates a statement of 

the findings and its reasons in the rule 

issued. 

This correction notice addresses 

typographical and technical errors made 

in FR Doc. 07–5506, the CY 2008 PFS 

final rule with comment period, which 

appeared in the November 27, 2007 

Federal Register (72 FR 66222), and is, 

with limited exceptions as noted in that 

rule, effective January 1, 2008. The 

provisions of the final rule with 

comment period have been subjected 

previously to notice and comment 

procedures. These corrections contained 

in this correction notice are consistent 

with, and do not make substantive 


sroberts on PROD1PC70 with RULES
2710 Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 10 / Tuesday, January 15, 2008 / Rules and Regulations 

changes to, the payment methodologies 

and policies adopted in the CY 2008 

PFS final rule with comment period. As 

such, this correction notice is intended 

to ensure the CY 2008 PFS final rule 

with comment period accurately reflects 

the policies adopted in that rule. We 

find, therefore, for good cause that it is 

unnecessary and would be contrary to 

the public interest to undertake further 

notice and comment procedures to 

incorporate these corrections into the 

final rule with comment period. 

For the same reasons, we are also 

waiving the 30-day delay in effective 

date for this correction notice. We 

believe that it is in the public interest 

to ensure that the CY 2008 PFS final 

rule with comment period accurately 

states our policies as of the date they 

take effect. Therefore, we find that 

delaying the effective date of these 

corrections beyond the effective date of 

the final rule with comment period 

would be contrary to the public interest. 

In so doing, we find good cause to waive 

the 30-day delay in the effective date.
