     Purpose of the Proposal and Its Anticipated Effects, Including Any Changes in Existing Rules: The department is proposing to amend sections in chapter 388-550 WAC relating to restrictions on hospital coverage, revenue code categories and subcategories for outpatient hospitals and inpatient hospital services for dates of admission before August 1, 2007, and on and after August 1, 2007. The department is also amending these sections in order to change verbiage from "medical assistance administration (MAA)" to "the department," change verbiage from "facility" to "hospital" and to update and clarify other language.

     Reasons Supporting Proposal: See above.

     Statutory Authority for Adoption: RCW 74.08.090 and 74.09.500.

     Statute Being Implemented: RCW 74.08.090 and 74.09.500.

     No small business economic impact statement has been prepared under chapter 19.85 RCW. The department has determined that the proposed rule will not create more than minor costs for affected small businesses.

     A cost-benefit analysis is not required under RCW 34.05.328. The department has determined that the proposed rule does not meet the definition of "significant legislative rule" under RCW 34.05.328, and therefore a cost-benefit analysis is not required.
