2. Type of Information Collection
Request: New collection; Title of
Information Collection: Health Plan
Employer Data and Information Set
(HEDIS); Use: The Centers for
Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS)
collects quality performance measures
in order to hold the Medicare managed
care industry accountable for the care
being delivered, to enable quality
improvement, and to provide quality
information to Medicare beneficiaries in
order to promote an informed choice. It
is critical to CMS’ mission that we
collect and disseminate information that
will help beneficiaries choose among
health plans, contribute to improved
quality of care through identification of
improvement opportunities, and assist
CMS in carrying out its oversight and
purchasing responsibilities.
In December 1997, OMB approved the
request from CMS for the information
collections under HEDIS and assigned
the agency form number CMS–R–200.
The collections approved under that
request included the HEDIS collection
(following the technical specifications
contained in Volume 2, published by
the National Committee for Quality
Assurance (NCQA); the Health of
Seniors/Health Outcomes Survey (HOS);
and the Medicare CAHPS survey.
Since that approval there has been a
change in the statutory authority as a
result of the Balanced Budget Act of
1997. During the latter part of 2000,
CMS instituted several policy changes
regarding this collection which reduced
burden substantially on the part of the
managed care organizations and the
process for finalizing and publishing
that policy delayed the request for OMB
approval. In addition, the renewal of
OMB authority for the Medicare CAHPS
survey was completed as a separate
request. The HOS renewal was also
submitted separately. This request is
solely for the approval of the HEDIS
collection, which is now a stand alone
collection. Form Number: CMS–10219
(OMB#: 0938–NEW); Frequency: Yearly;
Affected Public: Business or other forprofit and Not-for-profit institutions;
Number of Respondents: 705; Total
Annual Responses: 705; Total Annual
Hours: 33,840.
3. Type of Information Collection
Request: Extension of a currently
approved collection; Title of
Information Collection: Medicare
Contractor Provider Satisfaction Survey
(MCPSS); Form No.: CMS–10097
(OMB#: 0938–0915); Use: The Centers
for Medicare & Medicaid Services will
obtain feedback from Medicare
providers via a survey about
