What This Page Covers, and What It Leaves Out

The one thing the section does: strike one dollar figure and insert another in section 1898(b)(1) of the Social Security Act.

Nothing else. The section is a single sentence.

The section amends the Social Security Act, which is not indexed here, so what the Medicare Improvement Fund may be used for is not recorded on this site.
