Update: FTC Delays Implementation of Red Flag Rule Until November 1, 2009

The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has delayed implementation of the "red flag" rule until November 1, 2009. The FTC's announcement does not mention whether or not the rule will be amended to exclude hospitals and other medical facilities from the list of "creditors" who are subject to the rule.
