Regulation: 45 CFR Part 144
Authorizing Statute: 42 U.S. Code § 300d-6
Agency: Department of Health and Human Services
Restrictions: 25
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

The statute specifically instructs the Secretary to award grants to improve emergency medical and trauma systems. It includes specific activities that the grants should support. The Secretary has some discretion in how these grants are awarded and how the program is implemented, but this falls within the bounds of specific authority delegation as “necessary” is implied.

Relationship: related but neither directly mandated nor explicitly authorized
Beta

The statute and regulation are related through the general topic of health and healthcare programs. However, the statute focuses on trauma center grants, while the regulation pertains to health insurance coverage and long-term care partnerships. There is no direct mandate or explicit authorization of the regulation by the statute.

Regulation: 45 CFR Part 144
Authorizing Statute: 42 U.S. Code § 300aa-10
Agency: Department of Health and Human Services
Restrictions: 25
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

While section 300aa-10 doesn’t delve into specifics on rulemaking authority, it directs the Secretary to administer a compensation program and undertake reasonable efforts to inform the public. This implicitly requires some rulemaking to define the procedures and guidelines for administration and information dissemination. Subsequent sections within the Act likely elaborate on specific regulatory tasks. Therefore, this section falls under Specific Authority Delegation because it does clearly instruct the agency to create the program and take action in creating publicity of the program

Relationship: unrelated

42 U.S.C. § 300aa-10 establishes the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program, while 45 CFR Part 144 concerns health insurance coverage requirements, specifically related to long-term care insurance partnerships. There is no direct mandate, authorization, or inherent relationship between the two. The statute deals with compensation for vaccine-related injuries or deaths, whereas the regulation governs health insurance.

Regulation: 45 CFR Part 144
Authorizing Statute: 42 U.S. Code § 300ff-71
Agency: Department of Health and Human Services
Restrictions: 25
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

The statute specifically instructs the Secretary to award grants to certain entities for the purpose of providing family-centered care to individuals with HIV/AIDS. It also specifies the application process, the types of services that can be funded, and the required coordination with other entities. While some discretion exists, the statute provides clear regulatory tasks.

Relationship: related but neither directly mandated nor explicitly authorized
Beta

The statute authorizes grants for specific health services related to HIV/AIDS. While 45 CFR Part 144 broadly concerns health insurance coverage, it doesn’t directly mandate or authorize regulations stemming directly from the grant program established in 42 U.S.C. § 300ff-71. However, both deal with health-related issues and fall under the broad purview of the Department of Health and Human Services, so they can be classified as related.

Regulation: 45 CFR Part 144
Authorizing Statute: 42 U.S. Code § 300y-11
Agency: Department of Health and Human Services
Restrictions: 25
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

The statute directs the Secretary to establish conditions for treatment programs to obtain authorization for interim maintenance treatment, focusing on specific regulatory tasks like preventing unauthorized methadone use and providing HIV counseling. Although using terms like “necessary,” the statute clearly outlines a defined regulatory objective.

Relationship: directly mandated
Beta

42 U.S.C. § 300y-11(c)(1) states that the Secretary “shall, after consultation with the National Commission on Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome, by regulation issue such conditions for treatment programs to obtain authorization from the Secretary to provide interim maintenance treatment…” This directly mandates the Secretary to issue regulations.

Regulation: 45 CFR Part 144
Authorizing Statute: 42 U.S. Code § 300gg-25
Agency: Department of Health and Human Services
Restrictions: 25
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

The statute provides very specific requirements for minimum hospital stays following childbirth and prohibits certain actions by health plans and issuers. This falls under Specific Authority Delegations because it clearly instructs an agency on a specific regulatory task.

Relationship: directly mandated
Beta

42 U.S.C. § 300gg-25 directly mandates specific standards for health insurance coverage related to hospital stays for mothers and newborns. This direct mandate is reflected in the regulations found in 45 CFR Parts 144, 147, 148, and 150, which implement and enforce these standards.

Regulation: 45 CFR Part 144
Authorizing Statute: 42 U.S. Code § 300g-3
Agency: Department of Health and Human Services
Restrictions: 25
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

Subsection (c)(2)(A) states “The Administrator shall, by regulation, and after consultation with the States, prescribe the manner, frequency, form, and content for giving notice under this subsection.” This is a specific instruction to the Administrator to create regulations about the manner, frequency, form and content of the notice.

Relationship: related but neither directly mandated nor explicitly authorized
Beta

The regulation (45 CFR Part 144) pertains to health insurance coverage requirements, specifically related to long-term care insurance partnerships. While the statute (42 U.S.C. § 300g-3) deals with the enforcement of drinking water regulations, there’s no direct mandate or explicit authorization in the statute for the agency to issue regulations specifically regarding health insurance coverage. The statute’s focus is on ensuring safe drinking water, and the regulation addresses a different subject area related to healthcare financing. Therefore, they are only loosely related, if at all.

Regulation: 45 CFR Part 144
Authorizing Statute: 42 U.S. Code § 300ff-21
Agency: Department of Health and Human Services
Restrictions: 25
Delegation Category: General Authority sword icon

The statute provides broad authority to the Secretary to make grants to improve healthcare. While the statute specifies the target (HIV/AIDS patients), it does not specify the exact requirements or methods for how the states should utilize grants to improve healthcare quality, availability, and organization, nor does it lay out explicit details regarding health insurance coverage or long-term care.

Relationship: related but neither directly mandated nor explicitly authorized
Beta

The statute authorizes the Secretary to make grants to states to improve healthcare for individuals and families with HIV/AIDS. The regulation concerns requirements relating to health insurance coverage and qualified state long-term care insurance partnerships, specifically reporting requirements for insurers. While both relate to healthcare and involve the Department of Health and Human Services, the statute does not directly mandate or explicitly authorize the specific subject matter of the regulation. The relationship is therefore related but neither directly mandated nor explicitly authorized.

Regulation: 45 CFR Part 144
Authorizing Statute: 42 U.S. Code § 300aa-12
Agency: Department of Health and Human Services
Restrictions: 25
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

The statute outlines specific tasks for the special masters and the Court of Federal Claims, including issuing decisions, recommending rules, establishing procedures, and managing the vaccine injury compensation program. These are specific, even if using terms like “reasonable and necessary,” so it is classified as specific authority.

Relationship: related but neither directly mandated nor explicitly authorized
Beta

While 42 U.S.C. § 300aa-12 deals with court jurisdiction related to vaccine injury compensation and 45 CFR Part 144 pertains to health insurance coverage requirements, they are related in the broader context of healthcare and insurance. However, the statute does not directly mandate or explicitly authorize the specific regulations outlined in 45 CFR Part 144.

Regulation: 45 CFR Part 144
Authorizing Statute: 42 U.S. Code § 300gg-135
Agency: Department of Health and Human Services
Restrictions: 25
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

The statute provides a specific regulatory task: limiting billing for air ambulance services by non-participating providers to the cost-sharing amount. It instructs the agency on a specific regulatory gap.

Relationship: authorized but not mandated
Beta

The statute, 42 U.S.C. § 300gg-135, addresses air ambulance services and cost-sharing. 45 CFR Part 144’s authority section lists 42 U.S.C. 300gg-111 through 300gg-139, indicating that the regulation is authorized, but the statute does not directly mandate a specific regulation.

Regulation: 45 CFR Part 144
Authorizing Statute: 42 U.S. Code § 300d-43
Agency: Department of Health and Human Services
Restrictions: 25
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

The statute specifically identifies regulatory tasks: maintaining access to trauma services and providing data to a trauma registry. While the phrase “as the Secretary may otherwise require” in subsection (b) gives some additional leeway, the core delegation focuses on distinct and enumerated regulatory actions. The use of “may require” indicates that the delegation instructs the agency on a specific regulatory task.

Relationship: authorized but not mandated
Beta

The statute uses “may require,” indicating that the Secretary is authorized, but not mandated, to issue regulations regarding financial support and trauma care registries for trauma centers receiving grants.

Regulation: 45 CFR Part 144
Authorizing Statute: 42 U.S. Code § 300ff-33
Agency: Department of Health and Human Services
Restrictions: 25
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

The statute clearly directs the Secretary to make grants based on specific criteria (state laws/regulations regarding HIV/AIDS testing that meet certain standards). The Secretary has discretion on the “form, manner, and information” of application.

Relationship: related but neither directly mandated nor explicitly authorized
Beta

The statute discusses grants to states based on state laws and regulations, but does not directly mandate or authorize federal regulations. While related to the broader topic of healthcare coverage, the statute and regulation don’t have a clear direct mandate or explicit authorization relationship.

Regulation: 45 CFR Part 144
Authorizing Statute: 42 U.S. Code § 300hh-37
Agency: Department of Health and Human Services
Restrictions: 25
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

The statute clearly instructs the Secretary of Health and Human Services to develop a One Health framework, coordinate with other agencies, and submit a report. This provides a specific regulatory task, using the term “shall develop” to the agency. Although there is some discretion via the term “as appropriate,” the instruction itself is very clear.

Relationship: related but neither directly mandated nor explicitly authorized
Beta

The statute relates to public health preparedness and addressing zoonotic diseases, while the regulation concerns health insurance coverage, specifically regarding long-term care insurance partnerships. The statute doesn’t explicitly mandate or authorize the specific regulation, but there could be an indirect relationship through broader public health goals.

Regulation: 45 CFR Part 144
Authorizing Statute: 42 U.S. Code § 300hh-10d
Agency: Department of Health and Human Services
Restrictions: 25
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

While the statute does not directly grant rulemaking authority, it specifically instructs the Secretary to establish an advisory committee and defines its duties. This falls under the ‘Specific Authority Delegations’ category because it directs the agency to undertake a very particular task: create and maintain an advisory committee focused on individuals with disabilities and disasters. The statute also dictates the composition of the committee, outlining specific expertise requirements for its members.

Relationship: unrelated
Beta

The statute concerns the establishment and duties of an advisory committee on individuals with disabilities and disasters. The regulation pertains to health insurance coverage requirements. There’s no direct mandate, authorization, or even related subject matter between the two.

Regulation: 45 CFR Part 144
Authorizing Statute: 42 U.S. Code § 300mm-22
Agency: Department of Health and Human Services
Restrictions: 25
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

The statute provides detailed instructions to the WTC Program Administrator regarding specific regulatory tasks, such as defining WTC-related health conditions, creating lists of covered conditions, establishing review and appeal processes, and setting standards for medical necessity and reimbursement rates. Even when using more flexible language, like “may” in the context of modifying payment methodologies, it is directly tied to specific utilization and quality data, maintaining a clear and confined scope for the delegated authority.

Relationship: directly mandated
Beta

The statute directly mandates specific regulations regarding the WTC health program, including defining health conditions, establishing procedures for review, certification, and appeals, and setting standards for medical necessity. Specific sections like (a)(5)(B), (a)(6), (b)(2)(B) and (b)(3)(B) use mandatory language like “shall propose regulations,” “shall by rule establish procedures” and “shall issue regulations.”

Regulation: 45 CFR Part 144
Authorizing Statute: 42 U.S. Code § 300ff-27a
Agency: Department of Health and Human Services
Restrictions: 25
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

The statute directly instructs HHS on a specific regulatory task: conditioning grants on states’ efforts to notify spouses of HIV-infected patients. While it doesn’t spell out how HHS should implement this condition, it is directive enough that it falls under Specific Authority.

Relationship: authorized but not mandated
Beta

The statute authorizes the Secretary of Health and Human Services to make grants, but it does not mandate specific regulations. The statute sets a condition for the grants to states, requiring them to take action on spousal notification. The regulation could provide more detail on how states must document their notification efforts or on the criteria for a “good faith effort.” Therefore, the statute authorizes, but does not directly mandate, the regulation.

Regulation: 45 CFR Part 144
Authorizing Statute: 42 U.S. Code § 300ff-28
Agency: Department of Health and Human Services
Restrictions: 25
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

The statute lays out a formula for the distribution of funds based on specific factors like living cases of HIV/AIDS, the presence or absence of EMA areas, and reporting mechanisms. It details how the Secretary should calculate and adjust grants, including specific limitations on administrative costs and requirements for quality management programs. This provides specific instructions for implementing the distribution of funds, aligning with the characteristics of a specific authority delegation as it instructs the agency on a specific regulatory task.

Relationship: related but neither directly mandated nor explicitly authorized
Beta

The statute provides for the distribution of funds to states for HIV/AIDS treatment and care. While 45 CFR Part 144 relates to health insurance coverage requirements, including long-term care, there isn’t a direct mandate for this specific regulation stemming from the statute, nor is it explicitly authorized by the statute. However, there is a relatedness since the funds distributed could impact healthcare access and potentially affect health insurance markets.

Regulation: 45 CFR Part 144
Authorizing Statute: 42 U.S. Code § 300ff-29a
Agency: Department of Health and Human Services
Restrictions: 25
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

The statute directs the Secretary to make grants to states that meet specific criteria. It also lists factors the Secretary may consider when determining “demonstrated need.” While there is some discretion involved in determining “need” or “relevant factors,” the statute gives specific instructions on the regulatory task of awarding grants.

Relationship: related but neither directly mandated nor explicitly authorized
Beta

The statute concerns supplemental grants to states for HIV/AIDS services. The regulation concerns health insurance coverage and reporting requirements for long-term care insurers. While both relate to healthcare broadly, the statute does not directly mandate or explicitly authorize the regulation. There is no specific reference to the statute in the regulation’s authority citation, nor does the regulation seem to be implementing the grant program established by the statute.

Regulation: 45 CFR Part 144
Authorizing Statute: 42 U.S. Code § 300ee-23
Agency: Department of Health and Human Services
Restrictions: 25
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

While 42 U.S.C. § 300ee-23 itself is just a definition, and doesn’t directly delegate authority, it operates within a larger part of the U.S. Code related to AIDS programs. Implicitly, by defining terms for that “part”, it is a specific instruction to agencies involved in implementing those programs, guiding how they should understand and apply the law. The other statutory provisions listed in the regulation, 42 U.S.C. 300gg through 300gg-63, 300gg-91, 300gg-92, and 300gg-111 through 300gg-139 contain clear instructions on specific regulatory tasks.

Relationship: related but neither directly mandated nor explicitly authorized
Beta

The statute defines a term related to AIDS for the purposes of that specific part of the US Code. While the regulation addresses health insurance coverage, which could be related to conditions arising from AIDS, the statute doesn’t directly mandate or explicitly authorize the regulation of health insurance coverage in relation to the defined term. The statute and the regulation are in related fields (health) but not directly connected.

Regulation: 45 CFR Part 144
Authorizing Statute: 42 U.S. Code § 300ee-33
Agency: Department of Health and Human Services
Restrictions: 25
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

The statute provides the Secretary with a specific regulatory task, namely, making grants to certain entities for the purpose of providing services to underserved populations regarding AIDS prevention. While “underserved” and “services” can be interpreted, the statute identifies the specific area of regulation (AIDS prevention information for underserved populations) and provides direction, aligning with a specific authority delegation.

Relationship: authorized but not mandated
Beta

The statute explicitly states the Secretary “may” make grants. This authorizes the action, but does not mandate it.

Regulation: 45 CFR Part 144
Authorizing Statute: 42 U.S. Code § 300x-64
Agency: Department of Health and Human Services
Restrictions: 25
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

While 42 U.S.C. § 300x-64 is a definitions section, and definitions themselves are not delegations of authority, the surrounding sections in the U.S. Code (300x et al.), which this definition section supports, establish grant programs and the conditions for receiving those grants. These conditions implicitly empower an agency (likely HHS) to interpret and further define terms like “interim services” through rulemaking or guidance to ensure effective implementation of the grant programs. Even though the language is somewhat open-ended, it instructs the agency on specific tasks related to these grants.

Relationship: related but neither directly mandated nor explicitly authorized
Beta

The statute provides definitions relevant to grants and programs related to substance abuse treatment and prevention. While the regulation pertains to health insurance coverage, there’s no direct mandate or explicit authorization for the definitions in 42 U.S.C. § 300x-64 to directly govern the content or enforcement of the health insurance regulations in 45 CFR Part 144. They both operate within the broader sphere of health and human services but address distinct aspects.

Authorizing Statute: 42 U.S. Code § 300h-3
Agency: Department of Health and Human Services
Restrictions: 25
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

The statute provides specific instructions on the regulatory task, directing the Administrator to designate areas with sole-source aquifers, establish a permitting process for underground injection wells in those areas, and outlining criteria for permit issuance or denial. While using terms like “necessary,” the statute focuses on closing a specific regulatory gap concerning underground injection and drinking water safety.

Relationship: authorized but not mandated
Beta

The statute authorizes the Administrator to issue permits and create regulations related to underground injections, but it doesn’t mandate the creation of specific regulations beyond requiring a petition process. The Administrator has discretion in how they implement the permitting and designation processes.

Authorizing Statute: 42 U.S. Code § 300d-4
Agency: Department of Health and Human Services
Restrictions: 25
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

The statute provides specific instructions for the Secretaries of Transportation, Health and Human Services, and Homeland Security to establish committees and councils. It also outlines the purposes, membership, and administrative support for these entities. This demonstrates a clear instruction on a specific regulatory task within emergency medical services.

Relationship: related but neither directly mandated nor explicitly authorized
Beta

The statute addresses emergency medical services and establishes committees and councils related to this field. The regulation addresses health insurance coverage and long-term care insurance partnerships. While both relate to health, they are distinct areas. The statute doesn’t directly mandate or explicitly authorize the regulation; however, both fall under the broader domain of healthcare and are related.

Regulation: 45 CFR Part 147
Authorizing Statute: 42 U.S. Code § 300aa-34
Agency: Department of Health and Human Services
Restrictions: 473
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

The statute provides the Secretary with a very specific task: to review awards data and report to Congress if the awards exceed certain thresholds. The statute clearly instructs on the regulatory task. The trigger that could end vaccine program is explicitly defined and narrow.

Relationship: related but neither directly mandated nor explicitly authorized
Beta

The statute mandates the Secretary to review and report on awards made under the vaccine injury compensation program. While 45 CFR Part 147 deals with health insurance reform, some provisions could be related to vaccine administration (e.g., coverage of preventive health services), but the relationship is not directly mandated, nor is this specific reporting requirement explicitly authorized. The relationship is tenuous.

Regulation: 45 CFR Part 147
Authorizing Statute: 42 U.S. Code § 300h-1
Agency: Department of Health and Human Services
Restrictions: 473
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

42 U.S.C. § 300h-1 gives the Administrator specific tasks, such as listing states needing control programs, approving/disapproving state programs, prescribing programs for states without their own, and determining if a state no longer meets the requirements for primary enforcement. This involves considerable agency discretion to make appropriate, reasonable and necessary decisions related to underground injection control.

Relationship: related but neither directly mandated nor explicitly authorized
Beta

The statute 42 U.S.C. § 300h-1 concerns state primary enforcement responsibility for underground injection control programs to protect drinking water sources. While it authorizes the Administrator to prescribe programs for states lacking their own, the provided regulation (45 CFR Part 147) pertains to health insurance reform requirements. While both deal with regulatory oversight and public well-being, the statute does not directly mandate the health insurance regulations, nor are they explicitly authorized within this statutory section focused on underground injection control.

Regulation: 45 CFR Part 147
Authorizing Statute: 42 U.S. Code § 300u-15
Agency: Department of Health and Human Services
Restrictions: 473
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

While the statute does give the Secretary discretion on what “high priority areas” to focus on, it also instructs the Secretary to examine “evidence-based practices relating to prevention.” Additionally, it includes a specific regulatory task or gap by including the examination of “effective strategies for organizing, financing, or delivering public health services in real world community settings.” This provides sufficient instruction to the Secretary on what to research.

Relationship: related but neither directly mandated nor explicitly authorized
Beta

42 U.S.C. § 300u-15 directs the Secretary of Health and Human Services to fund research on public health services. 45 CFR Part 147 addresses health insurance reform. While both relate to healthcare, the statute does not directly mandate or explicitly authorize the specific regulations in 45 CFR Part 147, which primarily focuses on insurance market rules, not public health services research. The statute does influence the broader healthcare landscape, which could indirectly influence regulations.
