The statute provides specific instructions to the Secretary to engage in rulemaking to specify “other specialty practitioners” relating to ancillary services (subsection (b)(2)(C)) and to establish and update a list of “advanced diagnostic laboratory tests” (subsection (b)(3)), which constitutes a specific regulatory task. Further, the statute specifically directs the Secretary to provide guidance regarding written notice (d)(1)(A) and a consent document (d)(3).

The statute 42 U.S.C. § 300gg-132 directly mandates rulemaking by the Secretary, particularly in subsection (b)(2)(C) regarding “other specialty practitioners” and (b)(3) regarding “advanced diagnostic laboratory tests” and in subsection (d)(1)(A) regarding specification of written notice and (d)(3) regarding a document specified by the Secretary. The regulation in 45 CFR Part 144 implements provisions related to health insurance coverage, including those authorized in 42 U.S.C. 300gg-132.

The statute directly instructs the Secretary on a specific task. Specifically, it states that the Secretary may not make payments to a state unless certain information regarding trauma care and emergency medical services is submitted. This constitutes a specific directive to the Secretary based on defined criteria, even though the Secretary retains discretion on whether or not to make payments in the context of submitted materials.

While 42 U.S.C. § 300d-14 concerns the Secretary of Health and Human Services and state trauma plans, and 45 CFR Part 144 concerns health insurance coverage, the two are related as they both fall under the general domain of healthcare and are administered by the same department. However, the statute does not directly mandate or explicitly authorize the specific regulations in 45 CFR Part 144. The statute provides specific requirements for states to receive payments related to trauma care, whereas the regulation concerns requirements relating to health insurance coverage, specifically long-term care insurance partnerships.

The statute provides very specific instructions to the Secretary regarding grants for protection and advocacy services for individuals with traumatic brain injury. It discusses eligibility criteria, application requirements, the formula for grant distribution based on population, minimum grant amounts, and reporting requirements. While some discretion is afforded to the Secretary (e.g., in application form and manner), the statute’s specificity places it within the “Specific Authority” category.

The statute authorizes the Secretary to make grants, but it doesn’t mandate specific regulations. The Secretary has discretion in how to implement the grant program (e.g., application requirements).

The statute instructs health care providers and facilities on a specific task: providing good faith estimates of expected charges and inquiring about insurance enrollment. While the language uses terms like “clear and understandable language,” these are intended to guide the implementation of the core requirement and do not transform the delegation into a general one. The statute details precisely what information must be provided and to whom.

42 U.S.C. 300gg-136 falls within the range of statutory authority cited in 45 CFR Part 144 (300gg-111 through 300gg-139). Thus, the regulation is directly mandated by the statute.

This statute gives the Secretary a specific directive: to reserve a certain percentage of funds for evaluation and to report the evaluations to Congress. While it doesn’t dictate how the evaluation should be conducted in granular detail, it clearly instructs a regulatory task.

The statute concerns the internal administration and evaluation of activities funded under a specific subchapter, while the regulation relates to health insurance coverage and qualified state long-term care insurance partnerships. The statute 42 U.S.C. § 300z-8 is not cited as authority for 45 CFR Part 144.

42 U.S. Code § 300g-7 provides specific instructions to the Administrator to issue guidelines for states to follow in proposing alternative monitoring requirements for chemical contaminants. It also dictates specific aspects of these guidelines, such as requiring assurance of public health protection and addressing contaminants detected at or above the maximum contaminant level. Therefore, it is a specific authority delegation.

While both the statute and regulation address public health and insurance-related issues under Title 42 of the U.S. Code, § 300g-7 deals specifically with drinking water contaminants, while Part 144 of the CFR deals with health insurance coverage requirements. The statute authorizes the Administrator to create guidelines for tailored alternative monitoring, but it does not directly mandate or authorize the long-term care reporting requirements addressed in the CFR regulation.

The statute directs the Secretary to ensure compliance with the nondiscrimination provisions outlined in the statute itself. This involves specific regulatory tasks related to preventing discrimination, as mentioned in subsection (b) stating “…with an applicable regulation (including one prescribed to carry out subsection (a)(2))”¦”. This falls under the ‘Specific Authority’ delegation because Congress identified a specific problem (discrimination in federally funded programs) and tasked the Secretary with addressing it through regulatory actions.

The statute, 42 U.S.C. § 300w-7, explicitly allows the Secretary to prescribe regulations to carry out subsection (a)(2). This indicates that while rulemaking is authorized, it is not directly mandated, making the statute-regulation relationship ‘authorized but not mandated’. However, 45 CFR Part 96 implements the statute.

The statute specifically instructs the Administrator to review methods and means to prevent disruption of the water supply due to terrorism. It even lists specific areas of review like pipes, storage facilities, and information systems. While terms like “appropriate” and “reasonably protected” are used, the delegation is clearly instructing the agency on a specific regulatory task.

42 U.S.C. § 300i-4 focuses on the security of drinking water systems against terrorism and other threats, while 45 CFR Part 144 deals with requirements related to health insurance coverage, specifically concerning long-term care insurance partnerships. There is no direct mandate, authorization, or even a clear relationship between these two topics.

The statute defines terms relevant to grants for mental health services. While the Secretary has authority over these grants, the statute itself does not instruct the agency on a specific regulatory task. It provides the Secretary with authority over funding agreements, but the text only defines the meaning of the term “funding agreement.” Therefore, it is considered a general delegation because it grants authority without outlining specific regulatory tasks.

The statute, 42 U.S.C. § 300x-8, provides definitions related to mental health services grants. The regulation, 45 CFR Part 144, concerns health insurance coverage, specifically focusing on long-term care insurance partnerships. While both broadly relate to health, the statute doesn’t directly mandate or explicitly authorize the specific reporting requirements for insurers outlined in the regulation. Thus, they are related but neither directly mandated nor explicitly authorized.

The statute specifically directs how the grant money is awarded and what the grant can be used for. The statute is specific in nature because it provides clear instructions on what requirements must be met to receive assistance from the state.

42 U.S.C. § 300ff-23 pertains to grants for HIV care consortia, while 45 CFR Part 144 relates to health insurance coverage requirements, specifically long-term care insurance. There’s no direct mandate, authorization, or inherent relationship between establishing HIV care consortia grants and the regulation of health insurance coverage. They address different aspects of healthcare and public health.

While the statute itself outlines very specific mandates, relating to the agency’s ability to further delegate. The statute directly instructs the agency on specific requirements concerning patient protections within group health plans and health insurance coverage (e.g., choice of healthcare professionals, access to pediatric/OB-GYN care), falling under Specific Authority.

42 U.S.C. 300gg-117 concerns requirements for group health plans and health insurance issuers related to patient access to healthcare professionals. The regulation, 45 CFR Part 144, broadly addresses requirements relating to health insurance coverage and cites several sections of 42 U.S.C. 300gg, including 300gg-111 through 300gg-139, indicating an authorized, but not mandated, relationship, as the regulation does not explicitly need to exist because of the statute, yet the agency may create and enact regulations related to the statute..

The statute provides very specific reporting requirements related to air ambulance services. Although the Secretary is given discretion to specify “other information”, the core regulatory task – the collection and reporting of specifically defined data related to air ambulance services by health plans and issuers – is clearly delineated by the statute. The mandate to create rules about the form and manner of submission is quite clearly defined.

42 U.S.C. § 300gg-118 mandates the submission of air ambulance reports. The statute explicitly requires group health plans and health insurance issuers to submit specific data, and it authorizes the Secretary to specify “such other information” regarding air ambulance services. While the statute mandates the reports, the specific form and manner of submission are left to the Secretary’s discretion through rulemaking under Section 106(d) of the No Surprises Act, which is referenced in the Statute’s Editorial Notes. The regulation specifies requirements relating to health insurance coverage.

The statute directs the Secretary, acting through the Administrator of the Health Resources and Services Administration, to award grants to eligible entities for specific purposes such as enhancing screening programs, providing education, and improving timeliness of specimen collection and diagnosis. The statute provides specific aims, meaning that it is a specific authority delegation.

The statute focuses on grants for newborn and child screening for heritable disorders. The regulation relates to health insurance coverage and qualified state long-term care insurance partnerships, and the authorities cited in the regulation do not include the statute. Therefore, the statute and regulation are unrelated.

The statute instructs the Secretary, through the CDC Director, to establish a grant program for specific purposes: improving surveillance for and response to infectious diseases, enhancing laboratory practices, improving information systems, and developing prevention/control strategies. While the Director has some discretion in setting criteria, the statute clearly outlines the regulatory task and the areas to be addressed.

42 U.S.C. § 300hh-31 deals with epidemiology and laboratory capacity grants, whereas 45 CFR Part 144 concerns health insurance coverage, specifically related to long-term care insurance partnerships. These topics are unrelated.

The statute specifically instructs the Secretary to establish through rulemaking: an audit process for group health plans and health insurance issuers, the methodology for determining the qualifying payment amount, information sharing requirements, geographic regions, and a process to receive complaints. These are specific regulatory tasks directed by Congress, falling under Specific Authority Delegations as defined by Kristin Hickman. The statute gives specific timelines as well, which is another indicator.

The statute explicitly mandates the Secretary to establish processes and methodologies through rulemaking, directly dictating the agency’s regulatory actions. This reflects a direct mandate relationship. The CFR cites this statute as the source of its authority.

The statute directly instructs the agency by referencing specific regulatory tasks, like applying provisions of another section (2704) to individual markets, compliance with notice requirements under 29 U.S.C. 1185(d), and outlining exceptions for certain state laws. The statute provides specific guidance on how to regulate benefits for mothers and newborns.

The statute 42 U.S.C. § 300gg-51 falls within the range of 42 U.S.C. 300gg through 300gg-63, which is listed in the CFR authority citation. While the CFR is authorized by the statute, a more specific regulatory action focusing on “Standards relating to benefits for mothers and newborns” is not directly mandated.

The statute specifically instructs the Secretary on the regulatory task: defining what records must be kept (42 U.S.C. § 300e-6(a)(1)) and what reports must contain (42 U.S.C. § 300e-6(b)). The statute identifies the specific task of prescribing the manner of the report through regulation.

42 U.S.C. § 300e-6 authorizes the Secretary to prescribe recordkeeping and reporting requirements, but it does not mandate that the Secretary issue specific regulations for every aspect of program administration. The statute gives the Secretary discretion using terms such as “shall prescribe” and “as he may by regulation require”.

Although 42 U.S.C. § 300aa-18 is about inflation adjustments for compensation and civil penalties, the statute directs the agency on how to execute its duties by incorporating the economic inflation standards, this allows for specific regulatory interpretation or implementation.

The statute 42 U.S. Code § 300aa-18 provides for annual increases for inflation of compensation under subsections (a)(2) and (a)(4) of section 300aa-15 of this title and civil penalty under section 300aa-27(b) of this title. The CFR regulation 45 CFR Part 144 pertains to health insurance coverage requirements, particularly focusing on general provisions and reporting requirements for insurers related to qualified state long-term care insurance partnerships. While both pertain to healthcare-related matters, the statute’s focus on inflation adjustments for compensation and civil penalties in the vaccine injury context, and the regulation’s focus on health insurance coverage rules, suggest that the relationship is related, but the statute does not directly mandate or explicitly authorize the specific health insurance regulations.

The statute outlines a specific task for the Secretary: providing technical assistance and potentially supplies/services to states to aid in carrying out programs under section 300d-11(b). While the statute uses the word “may” in relation to providing the services/supplies, it clearly instructs the agency (Secretary) to perform a specific function (technical assistance) and allows for other actions (services/supplies) directly linked to a particular goal (assisting states with their programs).

The statute discusses technical assistance and provision of supplies and services by the Secretary of Health and Human Services to states, whereas the regulation pertains to health insurance coverage requirements, specifically related to long-term care insurance partnerships and reporting requirements for insurers. While both fall under the umbrella of healthcare, the statute doesn’t directly mandate the specific regulations concerning health insurance coverage outlined in 45 CFR Part 144, nor does it explicitly authorize them. They are related to healthcare, but not directly mandated or explicitly authorized.

The statute provides explicit instructions to the Secretary regarding the establishment of a minimum interval between recommendations/guidelines and the effective plan year (subsection b), as well as permitting guidelines around value-based insurance designs (subsection c). These are specific regulatory tasks outlined by the statute, fitting the definition of a Specific Authority Delegation.

42 U.S.C. § 300gg-13(b) explicitly directs the Secretary to establish a minimum interval. Additionally, 42 U.S.C. § 300gg-13(c) authorizes the Secretary to develop guidelines on value-based insurance designs, further indicating a directly mandated relationship where the Secretary has specific tasks delegated by the statute.

Subsection (e)(7)(A) of the statute clearly instructs the Administrator to promulgate regulations for variances to be granted under subsection (e), specifying the minimum requirements for these regulations including procedures for granting/denying variances, operation of technology, eligibility criteria, and information requirements. This constitutes specific authority.

The statute authorizes the Administrator to prescribe regulations related to the time period for acting on variance applications, but it does not mandate specific regulations beyond this. Also, the CFR parts listed alongside 42 U.S. Code § 300g-4 do not include 45 CFR Part 144, suggesting the regulations are not specific to the statute.

Subsection (e)(2)(A) of the statute specifically instructs the Administrator to promulgate regulations setting a health-effects-based performance standard establishing maximum leaching levels from new plumbing fittings and fixtures under certain conditions. This is a specific regulatory task.

42 U.S. Code § 300g-6 pertains to the prohibition of lead pipes and related materials in public water systems and plumbing for human consumption, while 45 CFR Part 144 concerns health insurance coverage requirements, specifically related to long-term care insurance partnerships. These topics are unrelated.

The statute provides a number of specific tasks that the EPA Administrator needs to address such as (1) list community water systems, (2) Report success of enforcement mechanisms, (3) develop capacity development strategies, (4) methods to prioritize public water systems, (5) assist public water systems, (6) establish a baseline and measure improvements, (7) Administrator must support the States in developing capacity development strategies, and many more. These specific authority delegations, therefore, fall into Hickman’s Specific Authority Category.

While both the statute and the regulation pertain to health-related issues, the regulation (45 CFR Part 144) focuses on health insurance coverage, specifically qualified state long-term care insurance partnerships. The statute (42 U.S.C. § 300g-9) addresses the capacity development of public water systems to ensure safe drinking water. There isn’t a direct mandate or explicit authorization linking the two, but both are related to public health and welfare.

The statute specifically instructs the Secretary to promulgate regulations regarding enrollment periods, providing a specific regulatory task. Even though the terms used might be interpreted with some flexibility, the specific subject matter (enrollment periods) provides a defined scope.

Subsection (b)(3) of the statute explicitly states, “The Secretary shall promulgate regulations with respect to enrollment periods under paragraphs (1) and (2).” This directly mandates the Secretary to issue regulations on this topic.

The statute clearly instructs the agency (impliedly the Secretary of Health and Human Services) on specific regulatory tasks. For example, subsection (d)(4)(E) states that an issuer must comply with “such other conditions as the Secretary may by regulation require for activities conducted under this paragraph.” This gives the Secretary specific, albeit flexible, authority to establish conditions related to the research exception concerning genetic testing.

42 U.S.C. 300gg-53 falls within the range of statutes (300gg through 300gg-63) that the regulation 45 CFR Part 144 is authorized to implement. The statute addresses genetic information and health insurance, a subject matter within the scope of health insurance coverage addressed by the regulation. The statute does not explicitly mandate specific regulations, but authorizes regulatory action to implement its provisions.
