Officials said the review concluded and the regulation would not be issued. The issue hinges on whether taxpayer funded groups must follow state and local anti discrimination rules.

Bush to announce pharmacy discount cards for seniors
President Bush plans a White House announced program offering pharmacy discount cards to seniors next year as part of Medicare reform. The plan would let Medicare patients buy drugs in bulk through private benefit managers and could be implemented by the Health and Human Services Department within months, aiming to reduce elderly drug costs without a full subsidized benefit.
