Medicare program; catastrophic outpatient drug benefit, home intravenous drug therapy benefit, and screening mammography services--withdrawal--HCFA. Withdrawal of proposed rules

This notice announces the withdrawal of several proposed regulation documents that would have implemented certain provisions of the Medicare Catastrophic Coverage Act of 1988 by establishing new outpatient drug and home intravenous drug therapy benefits, expanding immunosuppressive drug coverage, and providing limited coverage for screening mammography services under Medicare part B. This notice implements section 201 of the Medicare Catastrophic Coverage Repeal Act of 1989 (Pub. L. 101-234, enacted December 13, 1989).
