## Abstract

In the November 14, 2016 issue of the Federal Register (81 FR 79562), we published a final rule with comment period entitled "Hospital Outpatient Prospective Payment and Ambulatory Surgical Center Payment Systems and Quality Reporting Programs; Organ Procurement Organization Reporting and Communication; Transplant Outcome Measures and Documentation Requirements; Electronic Health Record (EHR) Incentive Programs; Payment to Nonexcepted Off-Campus Provider-Based Department of a Hospital; Hospital Value-Based Purchasing (VBP) Program; Establishment of Payment Rates under the Medicare Physician Fee Schedule for Nonexcepted Items and Services Furnished by an Off-Campus Provider-Based Department of a Hospital" that made changes to the demonstration of meaningful use criteria under Sec. 495.40. This correcting amendment corrects a technical error in Sec. 495.40 resulting from an error in that final rule with comment period.
