Summary

The Senate Committee on Rules and Administration must create rules about the services the Attending Physician provides and about how the Senate health and fitness facilities are run and used. The rules must also require people to pay fees for those medical services and for using the fitness facilities. The Secretary of the Senate can take those fees out of the pay of anyone the rules allow to get the services or use the facilities, or accept direct payments. All fees collected must be sent to the U.S. Treasury’s General Fund as miscellaneous receipts unless another law says otherwise. These rules take effect on April 9, 1992.
