In accordance with the requirements of the Privacy Act of 1974, we are proposing to establish a new SOR titled, ``Medicare Prescription Drug Plan Finder (MPDPF) System, HHS/CMS/CBC, System No. 09-70-0564.'' Under the provisions of Section 101 of the Medicare Prescription Drug, Improvement, and Modernization Act of 2003 (MMA) (Pub. L. 108-173), CMS has provided the participants of eligibility transactions a query and response solution in a single data center using a three-tier architecture. Enterprise Business Services (EBS), the user interface, will have the responsibility of receiving identifying information on Medicare beneficiaries for processing eligibility requests and enrollment assistance with the Medicare Prescription Drug Benefit Program. These inbound messages will be sent to EBS for processing of the eligibility request and for securing the information from the CMS Community Based Organization/ Customer Service Representative (CBO/CSR) Data Store, and for sending an available plan option response back via the internet. EBS will capture the identifying information and enrollment selection, and transmit it to the selected Medicare Prescription Drug Plan (PDP) or Medicare Advantage Prescription Drug Plan (MAPD). This initiative will streamline and facilitate drug benefit eligibility determination and the enrollment process. The primary purpose of this system is to provide a Web accessible inquiry system that will provide a mechanism to support an individual beneficiary's efforts in performing drug benefit eligibility queries and to enroll them into selected plans. Information in this system will also be used to: (1) Support regulatory and policy functions performed within the Agency or by a contractor or consultant; (2) assist PDPs and MAPDs directly or through the Enterprise Business Services; (3) support constituent requests made to a Congressional representative; and (4) support litigation involving the Agency related to this system. We have provided background information about the proposed system in the ``Supplementary Information'' section below. Although the Privacy Act requires only that the Aroutine use'' portion of the system be published for comment, CMS invites comments on all portions of this notice. See EFFECTIVE DATES section for comment period.
