Request: Extension of a currently
approved collection; Title of
Information Collection: Physician Group
Practice (PGP) Standardized
Ambulatory Care Quality Measure
Collection Initiative; Use: The Benefits
Improvement & Protection Act of 2000
mandated the Physician Group Practice
(PGP) Demonstration and gave the
Secretary discretion to use quality
measures to assess physician
performance in order to reward them for
improvements in the quality and
efficiency of health care. This
demonstration is intended to strengthen
the Medicare program by offering
innovative models to beneficiaries that
improve quality and access and lower
costs. As a result, Medicare beneficiaries
will directly benefit from these
innovative models. The demonstration
represents the first pay for performance
project for physician group practices
and will enable comparisons across
groups and geography; Form Number:

Match project and information
collection activity provides a ‘‘check

program relying solely on a single
information collection system. It gives
CMS the opportunity to pursue
collection of identified mistaken
payments (within legal constraints) and
to update incorrect status indicators to
prevent further incorrect suspensions or
mistaken payment or denial. Employers
identified through a match of IRS, SSA,
and Medicare records will be contacted
concerning group health plan coverage
of identified individuals to ensure
compliance with Medicare Secondary
Payer provisions found at 42 U.S.C.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: FDA is
announcing the withdrawal of a draft
guidance for industry entitled
‘‘Conjugated Estrogens, USP–LC–MS
Method for Both Qualitative Chemical
Characterization and Documentation of
Qualitative Pharmaceutical
Equivalence.’’ The agency announced
the availability of the guidance in the
Federal Register of March 9, 2000 (65
FR 12556). The draft guidance was
originally intended to provide
recommendations to applicants on how
to use the liquid chromatography mass
spectrometry (LC–MS) method to
address both qualitative chemical
characterization and qualitative
pharmaceutical equivalence for natural
source conjugated estrogens. FDA is
withdrawing the guidance because
advances in technology allow for the
possibility of using different
methodologies. FDA does not want to
inhibit companies from using a
methodology that might provide
additional scientific data to support
characterization and pharmaceutical
equivalence for conjugated estrogens in
the future. If submitted, these data
would be evaluated to determine
applicability of the method before an
application could be approved.
Dated: August 5, 2005.

SUMMARY: The Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) is announcing the
withdrawal of a draft guidance for
industry entitled ‘‘Conjugated Estrogens,
USP–LC–MS Method for Both
Qualitative Chemical Characterization
and Documentation of Qualitative
Pharmaceutical Equivalence.’’ FDA is
withdrawing the draft guidance because
the published methodology limits the
submission of scientifically valid
information to the agency that may be
based on different methodologies. FDA
does not want to dictate the scientific
approach for developing adequate
methods.
