NOTICE OF REVIEW AND STATEMENT OF CONTINUATION

Concise explanation of the particular statutory provisions under which the rule is enacted and how these provisions authorize or require the rule:

This rule is authorized by Subsection 26-33a-104(3), which states "In accordance with Title 63G, Chapter 3, Utah Administrative Rulemaking Act, the committee, with the concurrence of the department, may adopt rules to carry out the provisions of this chapter."

Summary of written comments received during and since the last five-year review of the rule from interested persons supporting or opposing the rule:

The Office of Health Care Statistics has not received any written comments since the last five-year review of the rule from interested persons supporting or opposing the rule. Only general inquires have been made and responded to by the Office. On 11/10/2016, the Health Data Committee (HDC) voted with unanimous consent to extend Rule R428-12.

Reasoned justification for continuation of the rule, including reasons why the agency disagrees with comments in opposition to the rule, if any:

Rule R428-12 allows monitoring of satisfaction with the quality and access of care provided by participating Utah health plans. Continuation of the rule will assure that health plans are monitored using nationally-recognized standards. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
