Title: Review of Supplemental
Nutrition Assistance Program/Medicaid
Eligibility Technology Integration.
Form Number: N/A.
OMB Number: 0584–NEW.
Expiration Date: Not Yet Determined.
Type of Request: New information
collection request.
Abstract: The Supplemental Nutrition
Assistance Program (SNAP), (The Food
and Nutrition Act of 2008 [As Amended
Through Pub. L. 113–128, Enacted July
22, 2014]) provides nutrition assistance
benefits to millions of eligible, lowincome individuals and families
nationwide. SNAP is administered by
FNS, but operates at the State and local
level. States have varying degrees of
integration across their health and
human service programs. To meet
statutory requirements of the Patient
Protection and Affordable Care Act
(Pub. L. 111–148), many States have
altered their technical platforms and
business processes. In order to assess
how these changes may have positively
or negatively impacted SNAP, FNS
proposes to collect information on State
agency structure, staffing, and
operations; eligibility system and
business process functions; application
procedures; the nature of relationships
and connections between Medicaid and
SNAP; and other details relevant to
understanding how clients engage State
systems and ways in which their access
to SNAP can be enhanced. Specifically,
this information collection will be
undertaken through administration of a
voluntary Integration/Operations Survey
to 50 States, the District of Columbia,
Guam, and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
Based on previous experience, we

Estimated Time per Response: .75
