## Abstract

On August 30, 1996, we published a final rule--Medicare Program; Changes to the Hospital Inpatient Prospective Payment Systems and Fiscal Year 1997 Rates--at 61 FR 46166 et seq. At that time, we indicated that, by operation of section 801(a)(3) of title 5, United States Code, the final rule might not take effect until October 29, 1996. On September 17, 1996, the Senate voted to reject a joint resolution of disapproval of the final rule under section 802 of title 5, United States Code. Accordingly, pursuant to section 801(a)(5) of title 5, United States Code, the provisions of the August 30, 1996 final rule are effective on October 1, 1996.
