## Abstract

The Commission has adopted a Thirteenth Order on Reconsideration in MM Docket 92-266 to simplify rules affecting cable operators' rates and to provide cable operators with an additional option for adjusting their rates. This streamlined methodology encourages operators to limit rate increases to once per year rather than up to 4 times per year under the existing methodology. It will also limit delays in recovering costs that operators have experienced under the current system. This streamlined rate review process benefits all affected parties. An annual rate adjustment option could eliminate subscriber confusion and frustration because subscribers will not have to contend with numerous rate increases during a given year. Annual adjustments also benefit cable operators because filing for rate increases and providing notice to subscribers of such rate increases once per year is more efficient. Regulatory authorities benefit from an annual rate adjustment system because such a system minimizes the number of rate adjustments they have to review each year.
