Contained in Title IV, Section 6102, of the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1989 are more than 21 pages of legislative language designed to require the Health Care Financing Administration (HCFA) to set all physicians' fees for services delivered under Part B of Medicare commencing January 1, 1992, and phased in over the following four years. In addition, balance billing dollar limits keyed to the regulated rates are set forth, as are "Volume Performance Rates of Increase," a reincarnation of a vehicle previously known as "Expenditure Targets."     

Best subsets regression using LP-norms with 1≤p<∞

This paper describes an algorithm for determining the best subset of k variables in regression problems using any L_P-norm with 1≤p<∞. The procedure is based on partial enumeration. It also makes a suggestion for finding the equation with least prediction error.
