“by inserting "for audits conducted by the Secretary, or, at the option of the Secretary, audits conducted by the State" after "exceeds 0.03";”
The section inserts into section 1903(u)(1)(A) of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1396b(u)(1)) words tying the 0.03 error rate to audits by the Secretary or, at the Secretary's option, audits by the State, and adds the words to the extent practicable at the end.
What the document actually says
“by inserting "for audits conducted by the Secretary, or, at the option of the Secretary, audits conducted by the State" after "exceeds 0.03";”
That sentence, in plain words
New words are added after a figure in an older law. They tie it to audits by the Secretary. Audits by the state may count if the Secretary allows.
What this is about
The figure is an allowable error rate of 0.03. Going above it costs the state federal money. The older law is not indexed here.
No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.

How to Read This Page
The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, and we check the page
number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary,
not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the
quotation rather than replacing it.
