SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA)
(44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), federal agencies
must obtain approval from the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for each
collection of information they conduct
or sponsor. The term ‘‘collection of
information’’ is defined in 44 U.S.C.
3502(3) and 5 CFR 1320.3(c) and
includes agency requests or
requirements that members of the public
submit reports, keep records, or provide
information to a third party. Section
3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA (44 U.S.C.
3506(c)(2)(A)) requires federal agencies
to publish a 30-day notice in the
Federal Register concerning each
proposed collection of information,
including each proposed extension or
reinstatement of an existing collection
of information, before submitting the
collection to OMB for approval. To
comply with this requirement, CMS is
publishing this notice that summarizes
the following proposed collection(s) of
information for public comment:
1. Type of Information Collection
Request: Revision of a currently
approved collection; Title of
Information Collection: ICF/IID Survey
Report Form and Supporting
Regulations; Use: The information
collected with forms 3070G–I is used to
determine the level of compliance with
Intermediate Care Facilities for
Individuals with Intellectual Disabilities
(ICF/IID) CoPs necessary to participate
in the Medicare/Medicaid program.
Information needed to monitor the
State’s performance as well as the ICF/
IID program in general, is available to
CMS only through the use of
information abstracted from the survey
report form. The form serves as a coding
worksheet designed to facilitate data
entry and retrieval into the Automated
Survey Processing Environment Suite
(ASPEN) in the State and at the CMS
regional offices. Form Number: CMS–
3070G–I (OMB control number: 0938–
0062); Frequency: Reporting—Yearly;
Affected Public: Business or other forprofits and Not-for-profit institutions;
Number of Respondents: 6,310; Total
Annual Responses: 6,310; Total Annual

Information Collection: Conditions for
Certification for Rural Health Clinics;
Use: The Rural Health Clinic (RHC)
conditions of certification are based on
criteria prescribed in law and are
designed to ensure that each facility has
a properly trained staff to provide
appropriate care and to assure a safe
physical environment for patients. We
use these conditions of participation to
certify RHCs wishing to participate in
the Medicare program. These
requirements are similar in intent to
standards developed by industry
organizations such as the Joint
Commission on Accreditation of
Hospitals, and the National League of
Nursing and the American Public
Association and merely reflect accepted
standards of management and care to
which rural health clinics must adhere.
Form Number: CMS–R–38 (OMB control
number: 0938–0334); Frequency:

Annually; Affected Public: Business or
