Liz: I doubt you are losing it or have heatstroke (unless you read the PHS regs while out in the sun - the combination could do it!). I do not have individual page numbers in my edition, so I cannot fully check your statement. Were you looking at the print publication? If so do the two sets of referenced text exist and duplicate one another as they do in the electonic edition I cited? In my electronic edition, (InfoEd, Inc) the July 11 text at 50.604, -5, -6 appears AGAIN at 94.4, -.5, -.6. It appeared to me that the revision deleted the first reference and (redundantly) cited addition of the second three, which were already there. I did not find any new language in the July 31 revision, did you? Actually, 50.601, 50.602 and 50.603 ALSO are duplicated at 90.94.1, 94.2 and 94.3 in my edition, although these were not mentioned in the July revision, and so this duplication is not eliminated. To understand why some duplications are intended (appparently), while others are not, one might have to go back to the PHS regs that are being changed to accommodate the new requirements. HOWEVER, I am not going to bother to go back and see why it is structured this way. The 50. series paragraphs modify 42 CFR part 50; The 94. series paragraphs modify 45 CFR, being an addition as subtitle A. > Someone needs to check the print edition to make sure we have not missed anything. There could be a discrepancy with the electronic version. I will contact InfoEd and find out if their text is taken directly from the GPO release - I believe it is: I will only report back if I discover this is not so. I hopes this clears up the mess somewhat. ********************************************************************* * Charles E.
