Traduction automatique locale · Langue originale de la source
Résumé
This notice advises interested parties of the extension of a Military Health System (MHS) demonstration project entitled "TRICARE Demonstration Project for the State of Alaska." The original demonstration notice was published on May 18, 2004 (69 FR 28124-28125), and described a demonstration project to exempt the underwriting provisions for the cost of civilian health care in the State of Alaska from the TRICARE managed care support contract for the Western Region. The demonstration was to be conducted for up to 5 years after the start of health care delivery under the contract and therefore, was scheduled to end on March 31, 2009. On February 23, 2009, a notice was published in the Federal Register (74 FR 8068-8069) to extend the demonstration for 1 additional year. As the rulemaking process has not yet been completed, the demonstration project will now be extended for 1 additional year (March 31, 2011). There is no cost impact that is caused by this extension.
