Title 42 published on 2015-11-28The following are ALL rules, proposed rules, and notices (chronologically) published in the Federal Register relating to 42 CFR Part 88 after this date.2017-02-21; vol. 82 # 33 - Tuesday, February 21, 201782 FR 11164 - World Trade Center Health Program; Petition 014—Autoimmune Diseases; Finding of Insufficient Evidence
typeregulations.gov FR Doc.2017-03336 RIN NIOSH Docket094 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, HHS Denial of petition for addition of a health condition. The Administrator of the WTC Health Program is denying this petition for the addition of a health condition as of February 21, 2017. 42 CFR Part 88 SummaryOn September 29, 2016, the Administrator of the World Trade Center (WTC) Health Program received a petition to add autoimmune diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis, to the List of WTC-Related Health Conditions (List). Upon reviewing the information provided by the petitioner, the Administrator has determined that Petition 014 is not substantially different from Petitions 007, 008, 009, 011, and 013, which also requested the addition of autoimmune diseases, including various subtypes. The Administrator has published responses to the five previous petitions in the Federal Register and has determined that Petition 014 does not provide additional evidence of a causal relationship between 9/11 exposures and autoimmune diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis. Accordingly, the Administrator finds that insufficient evidence exists to request a recommendation of the WTC Health Program Scientific/Technical Advisory Committee (STAC), to publish a proposed rule, or to publish a determination not to publish a proposed rule.

This rule is effective on January 17, 2017. 42 CFR Part 88 SummaryIn 2011 and 2012, the Secretary, Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), promulgated regulations designed to govern the World Trade Center (WTC) Health Program (Program), including the processes by which eligible responders and survivors may apply for enrollment in the Program, obtain health monitoring and treatment for WTC-related health conditions, and appeal enrollment and treatment decisions, as well as a process to add new conditions to the List of WTC-Related Health Conditions (List). After using the regulations for a number of years, the Administrator of the WTC Health Program identified potential improvements to certain existing provisions, including, but not limited to, appeals of enrollment, certification, and treatment decisions, as well as the procedures for the addition of health conditions for WTC Health Program coverage. He also identified the need to add new regulatory provisions, including, but not limited to, standards for the disenrollment of a WTC Health Program member and decertification of a certified WTC-related health condition. A notice of proposed rulemaking was published on August 17, 2016; this action addresses public comments received on that proposed rulemaking, as well as three interim final rules promulgated since 2011, and finalizes the proposed rule and three interim final rules.
2016-12-14; vol. 81 # 240 - Wednesday, December 14, 201681 FR 90295 - World Trade Center Health Program; Petition 012—Atherosclerosis; Finding of Insufficient Evidence
typeregulations.gov FR Doc.2016-29816 RIN NIOSH Docket094 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, HHS Denial of petition for addition of a health condition.

The Program conducted a literature search for the term in response to the Petition and found no relevant studies regarding atherosclerosis among 9/11-exposed populations. Accordingly, the Administrator finds that insufficient evidence exists to request a recommendation of the WTC Health Program Scientific/Technical Advisory Committee (STAC), to publish a proposed rule, or to publish a determination not to publish a proposed rule.
2016-09-01; vol. 81 # 170 - Thursday, September 1, 201681 FR 60329 - World Trade Center Health Program; Petition 013—Autoimmune Disease; Finding of Insufficient Evidence

The Administrator of the WTC Health Program is denying this petition for the addition of a health condition as of September 1, 2016. 42 CFR Part 88 SummaryOn April 4, 2016, the Administrator of the World Trade Center (WTC) Health Program received a petition (Petition 013) to add “relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis (autoimmune)” to the List of WTC-Related Health Conditions (List). Upon reviewing the information provided by the petitioner, the Administrator has determined that Petition 013 is not substantially different from Petitions 007, 008, 009, and 011, which also requested the addition of autoimmune diseases, including various subtypes. The Administrator recently published responses to the four previous petitions in the Federal Register and has determined that Petition 013 does not provide additional evidence of a causal relationship between 9/11 exposures and autoimmune diseases, including multiple sclerosis. Accordingly, the Administrator finds that insufficient evidence exists to request a recommendation of the WTC Health Program Scientific/Technical Advisory Committee (STAC), to publish a proposed rule, or to publish a determination not to publish a proposed rule.

This rule is effective on August 4, 2016. 42 CFR Part 88 SummaryThe World Trade Center (WTC) Health Program conducted a review of published, peer-reviewed epidemiologic studies regarding potential evidence of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and acute traumatic injury among individuals who were responders to or survivors of the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. The Administrator of the WTC Health Program (Administrator) found that these studies provide substantial evidence to support a causal association between each of these health conditions and 9/11 exposures. As a result, the Administrator is publishing a final rule to add both new-onset COPD and WTC-related acute traumatic injury to the List of WTC-Related Health Conditions eligible for treatment coverage in the WTC Health Program.
2016-04-25; vol. 81 # 79 - Monday, April 25, 201681 FR 24047 - World Trade Center Health Program; Petition 011—Autoimmune Diseases; Finding of Insufficient Evidence
typeregulations.gov FR Doc.2016-09527 RIN NIOSH Docket094 DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, HHS Denial of petition for addition of a health condition. The Administrator of the WTC Health Program is denying this petition for the addition of a health condition as of April 25, 2016. 42 CFR Part 88 SummaryOn January 25, 2016, the Administrator of the World Trade Center (WTC) Health Program received a petition (Petition 011) to add “autoimmune disease, lupus, and rheumatoid arthritis” to the List of WTC-Related Health Conditions (List). Upon reviewing the information provided by the petitioner, the Administrator has determined that Petition 011 is not substantially different from Petitions 007, 008, and 009, which also requested the addition of autoimmune diseases. The Administrator recently published responses to Petitions 007, 008, and 009 in the Federal Register and has determined that Petition 011 does not provide additional evidence of a causal relationship between 9/11 exposures and autoimmune diseases. Accordingly, the Administrator finds that insufficient evidence exists to request a recommendation of the WTC Health Program Scientific/Technical Advisory Committee (STAC), to publish a proposed rule, or to publish a determination not to publish a proposed rule.
