The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), specifically the Administration for Children and Families, has proposed a rule to remove existing regulations regarding the care and treatment of mentally ill U.S. nationals returned from foreign countries.
Why it matters: This is a purely administrative action. It does not change who is eligible for services, how those services are delivered, or the funding available for them. It simply moves the text of the regulations to a different location in the official legal code to make the rulebook easier to navigate.
Who it affects
- The Administration for Children and Families (ACF)
This is a proposed rule from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services published in the Federal Register; you should check the original document for the specific regulatory text being deleted and renumbered.
