Emergency Clearance: Public
Information Collection Requirements
Submitted to the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB)
Center for Medicare and
Medicaid Services.
In compliance with the requirement
of section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the
Centers for Medicare and Medicaid
Services (CMS), Department of Health
and Human Services, is publishing the
following summary of proposed
collections for public comment.
Interested persons are invited to send
comments to regarding this burden
estimate or any other aspect of this
collection of information, including any
of the following subjects: (1) The
necessity and utility of the proposed
information collection for the proper
performance of the agency’s functions;
(2) the accuracy of the estimated
burden; (3) ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and (4) the use of
automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology to
minimize the information collection
burden.
We are, however, requesting an
emergency review of the information
collection referenced below. In
compliance with the requirement of
section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, we have
submitted to the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) the following
requirements for emergency review. We
are requesting an emergency review
because the collection of this
information is needed before the
expiration of the normal time limits
under OMB’s regulations at 5 CFR part
1320. This is necessary to ensure
compliance with an Administration
Initiative. We cannot reasonably comply
with the normal clearance procedures
because a statutory deadline under the
Medicare Modernization Act (MMA)
would be missed.
Title II of the Medicare Modernization
Act (MMA) modified and re-named the
existing Medicare+Choice (M+C)
program established under Part C of title
XVIII of the Social Security Act. The
program is now called the Medicare
Advantage (MA) program. Although
some MMA program changes are
already in effect, several new features
AGENCY:
PO 00000
Frm 00031
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
will take effect beginning with the 2006
contract year. These new features
include authority for new MA regional
plans to be organized as regional
preferred provider organizations
(RPPOs). The MMA also amended the
Social Security Act to introduce a new
process for determining beneficiary
premiums and benefits for 2006 and
future years. Under the new process MA
organizations will submit a ‘‘bid’’
reflecting their revenue needs for
covering the benefits they plan to offer.
1. Type of Information Collection
Request: Revision of a currently
approved collection; Title of
Information Collection: Qualification—
Medicare Advantage Application For
Coordinated Care, Private Fee-ForService, Regional Preferred Provider
Organization, Service Area Expansion
For Coordinated Care and Private FeeFor-Service Plans, Medical Savings
Account Plans; Use: An entity seeking a
contract as an MA organization must be
able to provide Medicare’s basic benefits
plus meet the organizational
requirements set out in regulations at 42
CFR part 422. An applicant must
demonstrate that is can meet the benefit
and other requirements within the
specific geographic area it is requesting.
The application forms are designed to
provide the information needed to
determine the health plan’s compliance.
The regulatory requirements are
incorporated into the MA applications.
The MA application forms will be used
to determine if an entity is eligible to
enter into a contract to provide services
to Medicare beneficiaries; Form
Number: CMS–10117, 10118, 10119,
10135, 10136 (OMB#: 0938–0935);
Frequency: Reporting: One time
submission; Affected Public: Business or
other for-profit, Not-for-profit
institutions and State, Local or Tribal
Government; Number of Respondents:
65; Total Annual Responses: 90; Total
Annual Hours: 2770.
CMS is requesting OMB review and
approval of this collection by January
20, 2006, with a 180-day approval
period. Written comments and
recommendations will be considered
from the public if received by the
individuals designated below by
December 28, 2005.
To obtain copies of the supporting
statement and any related forms for the
proposed paperwork collections
referenced above, access CMS’ Web site
