Emergency Clearance: Public
Information Collection Requirements
Submitted to the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB)
Centers for Medicare and
Medicaid Services, HHS.
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 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
gechino on PROD1PC61 with NOTICES
AGENCY:

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(a)(2)(ii). This is necessary to
ensure compliance with an initiative of
the Administration. We cannot
reasonably comply with the normal
clearance procedures because of an
unanticipated event, as stated in 5 CFR
1320.13(a)(2)(iii).
Approval of this notice is essential in
order to comply with Section 302(a)(1)
of the MMA that requires the Secretary
to establish and implement quality
standards for suppliers of certain items
to be applied by recognized
independent accreditation
organizations. Suppliers of Durable
Medical Equipment, Prosthetics,
Orthotics and Supplies (DMEPOS) must
comply with the quality standards (and
thus be accredited) to furnish any item
for which payment is made under
Medicare Part B. The DMEPOS
providers and suppliers must be
accredited and obtain a National
Supplier Clearinghouse billing number
in order to participate in the
Competitive Acquisition Program for
DMEPOS. The competitive bidding
process final rule will be published
October 1, 2006. However, there are
over 90,000 providers and suppliers that
need to be accredited before the
implementation of this program by
2009, regardless of whether they submit
bids or do not submit bids. Emergency
clearance is required, given the
complexity of this new requirement and
the fact that the industry cannot proceed
until CMS publishes both the quality
standards along with the approved
requirements for independent
accreditation organizations. Otherwise,
the program is in jeopardy of not
meeting the statutory deadline of full
implementation by 2009.
1. Type of Information Collection
Request: New collection; Title of
Information Collection: Durable Medical
Equipment, Prosthetics, Orthotics, and
Supplies (DMEPOS) Supplier
Accreditation Proposals from
Independent Accrediting Bodies; Use:
Under Section 302 of the Medicare
Prescription Drug, Improvement, and
Modernization Act of 2003 (MMA), the
DMEPOS providers and suppliers must
be accredited and obtain a National
Supplier Clearinghouse billing number
in order to competitively bid. Section
302(a)(1) of the MMA added section
1834(a)(20) to the Act, which requires
the Secretary to establish and
implement quality standards for
PO 00000

suppliers of certain items, including
consumer service standards, to be
applied by recognized independent
accreditation organizations. Suppliers of
DMEPOS must comply with the quality
standards in order to furnish any item
for which payment is made under Part
B, and to receive and retain a provider
or supplier billing number used to
submit claims for reimbursement for
any such item for which payment may
be made under Medicare. Section
1834(a)(20)(B) of the Act requires the
Secretary, notwithstanding section
1865(b) of the Act, to designate and
approve one or more independent
accreditation organizations to apply the
quality standards to suppliers of
DMEPOS and other items. Independent
accreditation organizations must furnish
the specified information to CMS to
allow themselves the opportunity to
submit proposals to implement and
operate the DMEPOS accreditation
program. The information supplied by
the Independent Accreditation
Organizations will be used to evaluate
the accreditation organization’s ability
to meet CMS’ regulations. Form
Number: CMS–10206 (OMB#: 0938–
NEW); Frequency: Reporting—One-time;
Affected Public: Business or other forprofit and Not-for-profit institutions;
Number of Respondents: 10; Total
Annual Responses: 10; Total Annual
Hours: 200.
CMS is requesting OMB review and
approval of this collection by August 9,
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 August
7, 2006.
To obtain copies of the supporting
statement and any related forms for the
proposed paperwork collections
referenced above, access CMS’ Web site

recordkeeping requirements must be
mailed and/or faxed to the designees
