Revisit User Fee Program for Medicare Survey and Certification Activities

This interim final rule with comment period implements the continuation of the revisit user fee program for Medicare Survey and Certification activities, in accordance with the statutory authority in the Continuing Appropriations Resolution ("Continuing Resolution") budget legislation passed by the Congress and signed by the President on September 29, 2007. On September 19, 2007, we published a final rule that established a system of revisit user fees applicable to health care facilities that have been cited for deficiencies during initial certification, recertification or substantiated complaint surveys and require a revisit to confirm that corrections to previously-identified deficiencies have been corrected.
