AGENCY:
SUMMARY: In accordance with the
requirements of the Privacy Act of 1974,
we are proposing to create a new system
titled, ‘‘Cancer Prevention and
Treatment Demonstration for Ethnic and
Racial Minorities (CPTD) System,
System No. 09–70–0560.’’ Section 122
of the Medicare, Medicaid, and State
Children’s Health Insurance Program
(SCHIP) Benefits Improvement and
Protection Act of 2000 (BIPA) (Public
Law (Pub. L.) 106–554) grants CMS the

authority to award at least nine
cooperative agreement demonstration
projects that will identify methods to
reduce disparities in early cancer
screening, diagnosis, and treatment for
Black, Hispanic, Asian American and
Pacific Islander, and American Indian
(including Alaskan Native, Eskimo, and
Aleut) Medicare beneficiary
populations. Demonstration sites will
use the best available scientific evidence
to identify promising models of cancer
screening, diagnosis and treatment
interventions to promote health and
appropriate utilization of Medicare
covered services, eliminate disparities
in cancer detection and treatment
among ethnic and racial populations of
Medicare beneficiaries, and provide
information to improve the effectiveness
of the Medicare program.
The purpose of this system is to
collect and maintain demographic and
cancer health-related data on Medicare
target population beneficiaries who
voluntarily enroll in the CPTD Project
for Ethnic and Racial Minorities. This
system will enable CMS to enroll
eligible participants in the
demonstration project; randomize
participants into intervention and
control groups; reimburse
demonstration site service claims; and
develop, maintain and analyze/evaluate
research information showing the
potential impact of providing cancer
screening, diagnosis and treatment
facilitation services to underserved
Medicare beneficiaries. Information
retrieved from this system may be
disclosed to: (1) Support regulatory,
reimbursement, and policy functions
performed within the agency or by a
contractor, grantee, consultant or other
legal agent; (2) assist another Federal or
state agency with information to enable
such agency to administer a Federal
health benefits program, or to enable
such agency to fulfill a requirement of
Federal statute or regulation that
implements a health benefits program
funded in whole or in part with Federal
funds; (3) assist an individual or
organization engaged in the
performance activities of the
demonstration or in a research project or
in support of an evaluation project
related to the prevention of disease or
disability, the restoration or
maintenance of health, or payment
related projects; (4) support constituent
requests made to a congressional
representative; (5) support litigation
involving the agency; and (6) combat
fraud and abuse in certain health
benefits programs. We have provided
background information about the new
system in the SUPPLEMENTARY
