The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) is revising the hearing loss recording provisions of the Occupational Injury and Illness Recording and Reporting Requirements rule published January 19, 2001 (66 FR 5916-6135), scheduled to take effect on January 1, 2003 (66 FR 52031-52034). This final rule revises the criteria for recording hearing loss cases in several ways, including requiring the recording of Standard Threshold Shifts (10 dB shifts in hearing acuity) that have resulted in a total 25 dB level of hearing above audiometric zero, averaged over the frequencies at 2000, 3000, and 4000 Hz, beginning in year 2003.

This background paper examines approaches to delivering and financing health services for persons with advanced chronic illness. Recognizing that the Medicare program is the major insurer of such services and that its share is likely to increase due to the aging of the population, the paper focuses on the nature and structure of Medicare hospice-and, to a very limited extent, palliative-care-benefits. It also explores Medicaid benefits, as well as coverage through private insurance, including indemnity, point-of-service,and preferred-provider-organization products. In addition to giving descriptive information on the various programs, the paper looks at quality concerns and cost and payment considerations.
