DEPARTMENT OF
LABOR AND INDUSTRY[34 PA. CODE CH. 127] Medical Treatment Review; Notice of Correction; Comment Period Extension [36 Pa.B. 4507]
[Saturday, August 12, 2006]Notice of the Department of Labor and Industry's (Department's) proposal to amend 34 Pa. Code Chapter 127, including Subchapter C (relating to medical treatment review) was published at 36 Pa.B. 2913 (June 10, 2006).
Two errors appeared in the document proposing new regulations at 36 Pa.B. 2913 (June 10, 2006). The errors were in Subchapter C, 34 Pa. Code §§ 127.401--127.670 (relating to Medical Treatment Review), and in the preamble at 36 Pa.B. 2913, 2915.
Due to a typographical error, the proposal did not accurately reflect the Department's intent to rescind Subchapter C and replace it with Subchapter E. The correct preamble should read as follows:
Subchapter E. Medical Treatment Review
The Department proposes rescinding §§ 127.401--127.670 and adding Subchapter E (relating to Medical Treatment Review).
The correct version of the proposal appears in Annex A, with ellipses referring to the existing text of the proposal.
In light of the potential for confusion relating to this error, the Department will now accept comments relating to the rescission of the existing Subchapter C until September 18, 2006.
