Agency Rulemaking Highlights
Notable ActionsAI Content in Political Advertisements
The Federal Communications Commission is proposing to require radio and television broadcast stations, cable operators and direct broadcast satellite providers, satellite digital audio radio service licensees, and certain permit holders to provide an on-air announcement for all political ads that contain artificial intelligence (AI)-generated content disclosing the use of such content in the ad. The proposal would also require them to include a notice in their online political files for all political ads that include AI-generated content disclosing that the ad contains such content. Comments due September 4.
Medicare Updates
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services issued three final rules regarding the Medicare program:
All three rules are effective October 1.
Interoperability and Transparency in Health Data
The Department of Health and Human Services issued a proposed rule regarding the access, exchange, and use of electronic health information. The proposal includes standards adoption; adoption of certification criteria to advance public health data exchange; expanded uses of certified application programming interfaces, such as for electronic prior authorization, patient access, care management, and care coordination; and information sharing under the information blocking regulations. Comments due October 4.
Modernization of Engagement with Mortgagors in Default
The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) issued a final rule modernizing meeting requirements between mortgagors in default on their payments and mortgagees of Federal Housing Administration-insured single family mortgages. The rule loosens HUD’s in-person, face-to-face meeting requirement to allow mortgagors and mortgagees to meet virtually using electronic communication technology. The rule also expands the meeting requirement to cover mortgagors in default who do not reside at the mortgaged property. Effective January 1, 2025.
Disbursing Multifamily Mortgage Proceeds
HUD is issuing a proposed rule that would, in some circumstances, allow mortgagees to pool mortgages into mortgage-backed securities guaranteed by the Government National Mortgage Association. The proposed rule would allow mortgagees to pool mortgages when funds provided by a mortgagor are not fully disbursed with the initial advance of the insured mortgage proceeds. Comments due October 7.
Regulatory Publication and Review
The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Federal Reserve Board of Governors, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation are reviewing agency regulations to identify outdated or unnecessary regulatory requirements on insured depository institutions and their holding companies, pursuant to the Economic Growth and Regulatory Paperwork Reduction Act of 1996. This publication is requesting comments on regulations regarding consumer protection; directors, officers, and employees, and money laundering. Comments due October 30.
