I 25 CFR Ch. V 42 CFR Chs. I-V 45 CFR Subtitle A; Subtitle B, Chs. II, III, and XIII Regulatory Agenda AGENCY: Office of the Secretary, HHS. ACTION: Semiannual Regulatory Agenda. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY: The Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980 and Executive Order (EO) 12866 require the semiannual issuance of an inventory of rulemaking actions under development throughout the Department, offering for public review summarized information about forthcoming regulatory actions. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Wilma Robinson, Deputy Executive Secretary, Department of Health and Human Services, 200 Independence Avenue SW., Washington, DC 20201; (202) 690-5627. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) is the Federal Government's lead agency for protecting the health of all Americans and providing essential human services, especially for those who are least able to help themselves. HHS enhances the health and well-being of Americans by promoting effective health and human services and by fostering sound, sustained advances in the sciences underlying medicine, public health, and social services. This Agenda presents the rulemaking activities that the Department expects to undertake in the foreseeable future to advance this mission. The Agenda furthers several Departmental goals, including strengthening health care; advancing scientific knowledge and innovation; advancing the health, safety, and well-being of the American people; increasing efficiency, transparency, and accountability of HHS programs; and strengthening the nation's health and human services infrastructure and workforce. HHS has an agency-wide effort to support the Agenda's purpose of encouraging more effective public participation in the regulatory process. For example, to encourage public participation, we regularly update our regulatory Web page (http://www.HHS.gov/regulations) which includes links to HHS rules currently open for public comment, and also provides a ``regulations toolkit'' with background information on regulations, the commenting process, how public comments influence the development of a rule, and how the public can provide effective comments. HHS also actively encourages meaningful public participation in its retrospective review of regulations, through a comment form on the HHS retrospective review Web page (http://www.HHS.gov/RetrospectiveReview). The rulemaking abstracts included in this paper issue of the Federal Register cover, as required by the Regulatory Flexibility Act of 1980, those prospective HHS rulemakings likely to have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. The Department's complete Regulatory Agenda is accessible online at http://www.RegInfo.gov. Wilma Robinson, Deputy Executive Secretary to the Department.

Use of Ozone Depleting Substances (Section 610 Review) Legal Authority: 21 U.S.C. 321; 21 U.S.C. 331; 21 U.S.C. 335; 21 U.S.C. 342; 21 U.S.C. 346a; 21 U.S.C. 348; 21 U.S.C. 351; 21 U.S.C. 352; 21 U.S.C. 355; 21 U.S.C. 360b; 21 U.S.C. 361; 21 U.S.C. 371; 21 U.S.C. 372; 21 U.S.C. 374; 15 U.S.C. 402; 15 U.S.C. 409 Abstract: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA or the Agency) is proposing to amend its regulation (21 CFR 2.125) on uses of ozone- depleting substances (ODSs), including chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), to remove designations for certain products as essential uses under the Clean Air Act. Essential-use products are exempt from FDA's ban on the use of CFC propellants in FDA-regulated products and the Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA's) ban on the use of CFCs and other ODSs in pressurized dispensers. This action, if finalized, will remove essential use exemptions for sterile aerosol talc administered intrapleurally by thoracoscopy for human use, metered-dose atropine sulfate aerosol human drugs administered by oral inhalation, and anesthetic drugs for topical use on accessible mucous membranes of humans where a cannula is used for application. FDA is proposing this action because alternative products that do not use ODSs are now available and because these products are no longer being marketed in approved versions that contain ODSs. On June 29, 2015, FDA published a notice and request for comment concerning its tentative conclusion that these products are no longer an essential use under the Clean Air Act (80 FR 36937). The Agency received no comments concerning removal of essential use designations for sterile aerosol talc and metered-dose atropine sulfate, and is proposing to remove these designations by direct final rule and a companion proposed rule in the event adverse comments are received. FDA received one comment concerning removal of anesthetic drugs for topical use in response to its 2015 notice and request for comment, and is proposing to remove this exemption through a separate notice. Because these products are not currently sold in the approved form, no significant economic impact is anticipated.

These revisions were proposed as part of a single rulemaking (68 FR 12406) to clarify and revise both premarketing and postmarketing safety reporting requirements for human drug and biological products. FDA plans to finalize the premarket and postmarket safety reporting requirements in separate final rules. Premarketing safety reporting requirements were finalized in a separate final rule published on [[Page 37299]] September 29, 2010 (75 FR 59961). This final rule applies to postmarketing safety reporting requirements.

Medical Gas Containers and Closures; Current Good Manufacturing Practice Requirements Legal Authority: 21 U.S.C. 321; 21 U.S.C. 351 to 21 U.S.C. 353 Abstract: The Food and Drug Administration is amending its current good manufacturing practice regulations and other regulations to clarify and strengthen requirements for the label, color, dedication, and design of medical gas containers and closures. Despite existing regulatory requirements and industry standards for medical gases, there have been repeated incidents in which cryogenic containers of harmful industrial gases have been connected to medical oxygen supply systems in hospitals and nursing homes and subsequently administered to patients. These incidents have resulted in death and serious injury. There have also been several incidents involving high-pressure medical gas cylinders that have resulted in death and injuries to patients. These amendments, together with existing regulations, are intended to ensure that the types of incidents that have occurred in the past, as well as other types of foreseeable and potentially deadly medical gas accidents, do not occur in the future. FDA has described a number of proposals in the proposed rule including requiring that gas use outlet connections on portable cryogenic medical gas containers be securely attached to the valve body.

Radiology Devices; Designation of Special Controls for the Computed Tomography X-Ray System Legal Authority: 21 U.S.C. 360c Abstract: The proposed rule would establish special controls for the computed tomography (CT) X-ray system. A CT X-ray system is a diagnostic X-ray imaging system intended to produce cross-sectional images of the body through use of a computer to reconstruct an image from the same axial plane taken at different angles. High doses of ionizing radiation can cause acute (deterministic) effects such as burns, reddening of the skin, cataracts, hair loss, sterility, and, in extremely high doses, radiation poisoning. The design of a CT X-ray system should balance the benefits of the device (i.e., the ability of the device to produce a diagnostic quality image) with the known risks (e.g., exposure to ionizing radiation). FDA is establishing proposed special controls, which are necessary to provide reasonable assurance of the safety and effectiveness of a class II CT X-ray system.

Comprehensive Care for Joint Replacement (CMS-5516-F) (Completion of a Section 610 Review) Legal Authority: Social Security Act, sec 1115A Abstract: This final rule implements a new Medicare Part A and B payment model under section 1115A of the Social Security Act, called the Comprehensive Care Joint Replacement Model, in which acute care hospitals in certain selected geographic areas receive retrospective bundled payments for episodes of care for lower extremity joint replacement or reattachment of a lower extremity. All related care within 90 days of hospital discharge from the joint replacement procedures would be included in the episode of care. We believe this model furthers our goals in improving the efficiency and quality of care for Medicare beneficiaries for these common medical procedures.
