OMB Clears Hearing Loss Listings

The Office of Management and Budget (OMB), which is part of the White House, must clear all proposed federal regulations before they are published in the Federal Register for public comments. OMB has just cleared proposed new Listings for hearing loss. The OMB website lists the "completed action" on the proposed regulations as "Consistent with Change."

Normally, these proposed regulations appear in the Federal Register within a few days after OMB clears them. The proposed new mental impairment Listings were cleared by OMB almost a month ago but have still not been published.
