Text of HHS Proposed Regs: Nondiscrimination in Health Programs and Activities
Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services [CMS], U.S. Department of Health and Human Services [HHS] [Official Guidance] July 25, 2022 308 pages. "The Department proposes to revise the 2020 Rule to reinstate regulatory protections from discrimination on the basis of race, color, national origin, sex, age, or disability in covered health programs and activities, consistent with the statutory text of Section 1557 and Congressional intent. This proposed rule would reflect Section 1557's application to health programs and activities of the Department ... The proposed rule would also reinstate the rule clarifying that Section 1557 generally applies to many health insurance issuers and also prohibits discrimination in health insurance and other health-related coverage ... The proposed rule also seeks to create consistent procedural requirements for covered health programs and activities by requiring grievance procedures (for employers with 15 or more employees), the designation of a responsible employee (for employers with 15 or more employees), and the affirmative provision of civil rights notices." |
