states affected.)

spokesmen detailed new pro
grams for the elderly.

must submit corrective plans
by Dec 15 and significantly im
prove nursing home inspections
and surveys by Feb 1.
"Unless such improvements
are v alidated by the Feb 1 tar
get date." he said, "HEW in
tend-; to initiate a noncom
pliance procedure that could ul
timately result in withholding
a!l federal Medicaid funds from
anv or every one of the 37
states "
In addition he said, all par
ticipating states and territories
mu«t inspect all of the nation's
7.000 nursing homes caring for
Med'caid patients bv July 1 to

compliance or in substantial
compliance "

care assistance for the needy.
