CFR part 1140 are authorized by section 102 of the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act (Tobacco Control Act) (Pub. L. 111–31). Section 102 of the Tobacco Control Act required FDA to publish a final rule regarding cigarettes and smokeless tobacco identical in its provisions to the regulation issued by FDA in 1996 (61 FR 44396, August 28, 1996), with certain specified exceptions including that subpart C (which included 21 CFR Reporting ............................

FDA estimates the burden of this collection of information as follows: TABLE 1—ESTIMATED ANNUAL REPORTING BURDEN 1 21 CFR Section Number of respondents Number of responses per respondent Total annual responses Average burden per response Total hours 1140.30—Scope of Permissible Forms of Labeling and Advertising ........................................................................ 300 1 300 1 300 1 There are no capital costs or operating and maintenance costs associated with this collection of information. asabaliauskas on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES The burden hour estimates for this collection of information were based on industry-prepared data and information regarding cigarette and smokeless tobacco product advertising expenditures. Section 1140.30 requires manufacturers, distributors, and retailers: (1) To observe certain format and content requirements for labeling and advertising and (2) to notify FDA if they intend to use an advertising medium that is not listed in the regulations. The concept of permitted advertising in § 1140.30 is sufficiently broad to encompass most forms of advertising. FDA estimates that approximately 300 respondents will submit an annual notice of alternative advertising, and the Agency has estimated it should take 1 hour to provide such notice. Therefore, FDA estimates that the total time required for this collection of information is 300 hours. Dated: June 16, 2016. Leslie Kux, Associate Commissioner for Policy.

Information Collection Request Title: Children’s Hospitals Graduate Medical Education Payment Program Application and Full-Time Equivalent Resident Assessment Forms OMB No. 0915–0247 Revision. Abstract: The Children’s Hospitals Graduate Medical Education (CHGME) Payment Program was enacted by Public Law 106–129, and reauthorized by the CHGME Support Reauthorization Act of 2013 (Pub. L. 113–98) to provide Federal support for graduate medical education (GME) to freestanding children’s hospitals. The legislation indicates that eligible children’s hospitals will receive payments for both direct and indirect medical education. The CHGME Payment Program application and full-time equivalent (FTE) resident assessment forms received OMB clearance on June 30, 2014. The CHGME Support Reauthorization Act of 2013 included a provision to FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: E:\FR\FM\21JNN1.SGM 21JNN1 40321 Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 119 / Tuesday, June 21, 2016 / Notices allow certain newly qualified children’s hospitals to apply for CHGME Payment Program funding. The CHGME Payment Program application forms have been revised to accommodate the new statute. In addition, a payment question included in the CHGME Payment Program application forms has been removed, since the participating children’s hospitals are now required to electronically communicate their financial information to the Payment Management System through the Electronic Handbook. The form changes are only applicable to the HRSA 99–1 (also known as Exhibit O (2)) and the HRSA 99–5. All other hospital and auditor forms are the same as currently approved. The changes to the HRSA 99–1 and HRSA 99–5 forms require OMB approval and are as follows: 1. HRSA 99–1: Add additional description to Line 4.06 (both Page 2 and Page 2 Supplemental), 5.06 and 6.06. The current description is, ‘‘FTE adjusted cap.’’ The new description will be, ‘‘FTE adjusted cap or 2013 CHGME Reauthorization cap due to Public Law 113–98.’’ 2. HRSA 99–5: Remove Payment Information question and check boxes (Applicable only to: (1) Hospitals which have not previously participated in the CHGME Payment Program, and (2) hospitals in which financial institution information has changed since submission of its last application). Need and Proposed Use of the Information: Data on the number of FTE residents trained are collected from children’s hospitals applying for CHGME Payment Program funding. These data are used to determine the amount of direct and indirect medical education payments to be distributed to participating children’s hospitals. Indirect medical education payments will also be derived from a formula that requires the reporting of discharges, beds, and case mix index information from participating children’s hospitals. As required by legislation, the FTE resident assessment shall determine any changes to the FTE resident counts initially reported to the CHGME Payment Program. Likely Respondents: The likely respondents include both the estimated 60 children’s hospitals that apply and receive CHGME Payment Program funding, as well as the 30 auditors contracted by HRSA to perform the FTE resident assessments of all the children’s hospitals participating in the CHGME Payment Program. Children’s hospitals applying for CHGME Payment Program funding are required by the CHGME Payment Program statute to submit data on the number of FTE residents trained in an annual application. Once funded by the CHGME Payment Program, these same children’s hospitals are required to submit audited data on the number of FTE residents trained during the Federal fiscal year to participate in the reconciliation payment process. Contracted auditors are requested by HRSA to submit assessed data on the number of FTE residents trained by the children’s hospitals participating in the CHGME Payment Program in an FTE resident assessment summary. Burden Statement: Burden in this context means the time expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, disclose or provide the information requested. This includes the time needed to review instructions; to develop, acquire, install and utilize technology and systems for the purpose of collecting, validating and verifying information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information; to train personnel and to be able to respond to a collection of information; to search data sources; to complete and review the collection of information; and to transmit or otherwise disclose the information.

eligible children's hospitals will receive payments for both direct and 
indirect medical education. The CHGME Payment Program application and

    The CHGME Support Reauthorization Act of 2013 included a provision

allow certain newly qualified children's hospitals to apply for CHGME 
Payment Program funding. The CHGME Payment Program application forms 
have been revised to accommodate the new statute. In addition, a 
payment question included in the CHGME Payment Program application 
forms has been removed, since the participating children's hospitals 
are now required to electronically communicate their financial 
information to the Payment Management System through the Electronic 
Handbook.
    The form changes are only applicable to the HRSA 99-1 (also known 
as Exhibit O (2)) and the HRSA 99-5. All other hospital and auditor 
forms are the same as currently approved. The changes to the HRSA 99-1 
and HRSA 99-5 forms require OMB approval and are as follows:
    1. HRSA 99-1: Add additional description to Line 4.06 (both Page 2 
and Page 2 Supplemental), 5.06 and 6.06. The current description is, 
``FTE adjusted cap.'' The new description will be, ``FTE adjusted cap 
or 2013 CHGME Reauthorization cap due to Public Law 113-98.''
    2. HRSA 99-5: Remove Payment Information question and check boxes 
(Applicable only to: (1) Hospitals which have not previously 
participated in the CHGME Payment Program, and (2) hospitals in which 
financial institution information has changed since submission of its 
last application).
    Need and Proposed Use of the Information: Data on the number of FTE 
residents trained are collected from children's hospitals applying for 
CHGME Payment Program funding. These data are used to determine the 
amount of direct and indirect medical education payments to be 
distributed to participating children's hospitals. Indirect medical 
education payments will also be derived from a formula that requires 
the reporting of discharges, beds, and case mix index information from 
participating children's hospitals. As required by legislation, the FTE 
resident assessment shall determine any changes to the FTE resident 
counts initially reported to the CHGME Payment Program.
    Likely Respondents: The likely respondents include both the 
estimated 60 children's hospitals that apply and receive CHGME Payment 
Program funding, as well as the 30 auditors contracted by HRSA to 
perform the FTE resident assessments of all the children's hospitals 
participating in the CHGME Payment Program. Children's hospitals 
applying for CHGME Payment Program funding are required by the CHGME

trained in an annual application. Once funded by the CHGME Payment 
Program, these same children's hospitals are required to submit audited

year to participate in the reconciliation payment process. Contracted 
auditors are requested by HRSA to submit assessed data on the number of

CHGME Payment Program in an FTE resident assessment summary.
    Burden Statement: Burden in this context means the time expended by

utility of the proposed information collection for the proper 
performance of the agency's functions, (2) the accuracy of the
