What is this?

This is a regulatory record from Health and Human Services Department, Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services — a rule, proposed rule, or notice. Regulations carry the force of law once final, and often invite public comment before that point.

Why does it matter?

Regulations are usually what actually binds you, more than statutes are. This is where an agency states the requirement, the effective date, and whether there is still a window to respond.
