Negotiated Rulemaking Committee on Medically Underserved Populations and Health Professions Shortage Area Designations
The Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) has announced its intent to use a negotiated rulemaking process to establish a comprehensive methodology and criteria for designation of medically underserved populations and primary care health professions shortage areas, as required by the PPACA. As part of this process, HRSA intends to establish a Negotiated Rulemaking Committee. HRSA is seeking comments on its proposed process, as outlined in the notice, along with nominations to participate in the committee; the deadline for submissions is June 10, 2010.
