Download as PDF 73252 Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 236 / Friday, December 9, 2005 / Notices The EFI process is designed to allow provider-designated organizations (known as electronic file interchange organizations ‘‘EFIOs’’) to capture multiple providers’ NPI application information on a single file. (This process is also referred to as ‘‘bulk enumeration.’’) To ensure that the EFIO has the authority to act on behalf of each provider and complies with other Federal requirements, the EFIO must sign a certification statement and mail it to CMS. The EFI process therefore cannot commence until the certification statement receives final OMB clearance. 1. Type of Information Collection Request: New collection; Title of Information Collection: Certification Statement for Electronic File Interchange Organizations (EFIOS) that Submit National Provider Identifier (NPI) Data to the National Plan and Enumeration System; Use: The EFI process is designed to allow organizations to submit NPI application information for large numbers of providers in a single file. Once it has obtained and formatted the necessary provider data, the EFIO will electronically submit the file to NPPES for processing. As each file can contain up to approximately 100,000 records, or provider applications, the EFI process greatly reduces the paperwork and overall administrative burden associated with enumerating providers; Form Number: CMS–10175 (OMB#: 0938– NEW); Frequency: Other—One-time; Affected Public: Business or other forprofit, and Not-for-profit institutions; Number of Respondents: 2000; Total Annual Responses: 1000; Total Annual Hours: 3000. CMS is requesting OMB review and approval of these collections by December 30, 2005, with a 180-day approval period.
