Implementation of section 403(a)(2) of Social Security Act; bonus to reward decrease in illegitimacy ratio. Administration for Children and Families, HHS. Final rule.

Abstract

The Administration for Children and Families is issuing a final rule describing how we will award a bonus to those States that experience the largest decreases in out-of-wedlock childbearing and also reduce their abortion rates. The total amount of the bonus will be up to $100 million in each of fiscal years 1999 through 2002, and the award for each eligible State in a given year will be $25 million or less. This incentive provision is a part of the welfare reform block grant program enacted in 1996--the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families, or TANF, program.

TRICARE program; TRICARE Prime Remote for active duty family members and TRICARE Prime enrollment period. Final rule.

This final rule implements 10 U.S.C. 1079(p), as added by section 722(b) of the Floyd D. Spence National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2001. The rule provides coverage for medical care for active duty family members who reside with an active duty member of the Uniformed Services assigned to remote areas and eligible for the program known as TRICARE Prime Remote. Active duty family members who enroll in TRICARE Prime Remote for Active Duty Family Members (TPRADFM) will enjoy benefits generally comparable to TRICARE Prime enrollees including access standards, benefit coverage, and cost-shares. This final rule also implements Section 702 of the NDAA for FY 2003, which establishes circumstances under which dependents of Reserve Components and National Guard members called to active duty in support of contingency operations may enroll in TRICARE Prime Remote for Active Duty Family Members, and dependents of TRICARE Prime Remote service members may remain enrolled when the service member receives orders for an unaccompanied follow-on assignment. Finally, this final rule establishes circumstances under which eligible beneficiaries may enroll in TRICARE Prime for a period of less than 1 year.
