Agency Information Collection
Activities: Proposed Collection;
Comment Request
Centers for Medicare &
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 & Medicaid
Services (CMS) 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.
1. Type of Information Collection
Request: Revision of a currently
approved collection.
Title of Information Collection:
Conditions of Coverage for Organ
Procurement Organizations (OPOs) and
Supporting Regulations in 42 CFR
486.301–348.
Use: Organ Procurement
Organizations are required to submit
accurate data to CMS through the Organ
Procurement and Transplantation
Network (OPTN). The data concerns the
organ procurement activities, as well as
various OPO business activities,
including information on its designated
service area; structure; various policies,
procedures, and protocols; and its
quality assessment and performance
improvement (QAPI) program. This

Title of Information Collection:
Notification of Fiscal Intermediaries

psychiatric facilities), which leads to
potential gaming of the Medicare system

requiring LTCHs to notify fiscal
intermediaries (FIs) and CMS of colocated providers. In addition, CMS has
established policies to limit payment
abuse that will be based on FIs tracking
