Justice Department Advances Proposed Title II Rule to Improve Access to Medical Care for People with Disabilities

The Attorney General has signed a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) under Title II of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) that aims to improve access to medical diagnostic equipment for people with disabilities. The Department of Justice has sent the NPRM to the Federal Register for publication. The Department has published a press release about its proposed rule.

Once published, the proposed rule will be available for review and public comment on the Federal Register’s website at www.federalregister.gov. The Department will send a follow-up announcement once the Federal Register publishes the NPRM.
