    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:

    Section 26-1-5 grants the Department the authority to adopt, amend, or rescind rules as necessary to implement the Medicaid program, and 42 CFR 440.225 authorizes the Department to cover podiatry as an optional service.

    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 Department did not receive any written or oral comments regarding this rule.

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

    The Department will continue this rule because it allows Medicaid recipients to receive podiatry care that includes the examination, diagnosis, or treatment of the foot.
