Privacy Act of 1974; Report of a New System of Records

AGENCY: Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), Department of 
Health and Human Services (HHS).

ACTION: Notice of a New System of Records (SOR).

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: In accordance with the requirements of the Privacy Act of 
1974, we are proposing to establish a new system titled, ``Home and 
Community-Based Alternatives (CBA) to Psychiatric Residential Treatment 
Facilities (PRTF) Demonstration (CBA-PRTF), System No. 09-70-0594.'' 
The demonstration, created by section 6063 of the Deficit Reduction Act 
of 2005 (Pub. L. 109-171), allows up to 10 states (as defined for 
purposes of title XIX of the Social Security Act (the Act)) to provide 
home and community-based services to youth as alternatives to PRTFs. 
The purpose of the demonstration is to test the effectiveness in 
improving or maintaining a child's functional level and cost 
effectiveness of providing coverage of home and community-based 
alternatives to psychiatric residential treatment for children enrolled 
in the Medicaid program under title XIX of the Act.
    The purpose of this system is to collect and maintain individually 
identifiable information on Medicaid recipients, and providers of 
services who voluntarily participate in the national evaluation of the 
CBA-PRTF. Information retrieved from this system may be disclosed to: 
(1) Support regulatory, reimbursement, and policy functions performed 
within the agency or by a contractor, grantee, or consultant; (2) 
assist another Federal or state agency with information to contribute 
to the accuracy of CMS's proper payment of Medicaid benefits, enable 
such agency to administer a Federal health benefits program, or to 
enable such agency to fulfill a requirement of Federal statute or 
regulation that implements a health benefits program funded in whole or 
in part with Federal funds; (3) support an individual or organization 
for a research project or in support of an evaluation project related 
to the prevention of disease or disability, the restoration or 
maintenance of health, or payment related projects; (4) support 
litigation involving the agency; and (5) combat fraud, waste, and abuse 
in certain Federally-funded health benefits programs. We have provided 
background information about the new system in the SUPPLEMENTARY 
INFORMATION section below. Although the Privacy Act requires only that 
CMS provide an opportunity for interested persons to comment on the 
proposed routine uses, CMS invites comments on all portions of this 
notice. See ``Effective Dates'' section for comment period.

DATES: Effective Date: CMS filed a new SOR report with the Chair of the 
House Committee on Government Reform and Oversight, the Chair of the 
Senate Committee on Homeland Security & Governmental Affairs, and the 
Administrator, Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Office of 
Management and Budget (OMB) on December 14, 2007. To ensure that all 
parties have adequate time in which to comment, the new system will 
become effective 30 days from the publication of the notice, or 40 days 
from the date it was submitted to OMB and the Congress, whichever is 
later. We may defer implementation of this system or one or more of the 
routine use statements listed below if we receive comments that 
persuade us to defer implementation.

ADDRESSES: The public should address comments to the CMS Privacy 
Officer, Division of Privacy Compliance, Enterprise Architecture and 
Strategy Group, Mail-stop N2-04-27, 7500 Security Boulevard, Baltimore, 
Maryland 21244-1850. Comments received will be available for review at 
this location by appointment during regular business hours, Monday 
through Friday from 9 a.m.-3 p.m., eastern time.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The demonstration, created by section 6063 
of the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005 (Pub. L. 109-171), allows up to 10 
states (as defined for purposes of title XIX of the Act) to provide 
home and community-based services to youth as alternatives to PRTFs. 
The purpose of the demonstration is to test the effectiveness in 
improving or maintaining a child's functional level and cost 
effectiveness of providing coverage of home and community-based 
alternatives to psychiatric residential treatment for children enrolled 
in the Medicaid program under title XIX of the Act. Participating 
states will acquire approved functional outcomes on participants across 
the following life domains: community living, school functioning, 
juvenile justice, family functioning, alcohol and other drug use, 
mental health, social support, program satisfaction and environmental 
variables. The overall evaluation must directly address the two primary 
questions posed in the statutes: Does the provision of home and 
community-based services to youth under this demonstration (1) result 
in the maintenance or improvement in a child's functional status; and 
(2) on average, cost no more than anticipated aggregate PRTF 
expenditures in the absence of the demonstration?

I. Description of the Proposed System of Records

A. Statutory and Regulatory Basis for SOR

    The statutory authority for this system is given under Section 6063 
of the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005.

B. Collection and Maintenance of Data in the System

    This system will collect and maintain individually identifiable and 
other data collected on Medicaid recipients, and providers of services 
who voluntarily participate in the national evaluation of the CBA-PRTF. 
The collected information will include, but is not limited to: name, 
address, telephone number, health insurance claims number, race/
ethnicity, gender, date of birth, patient medical charts, physician 
records, community living, school functioning, juvenile justice 
activity, alcohol and other drug use, mental health, social support, 
family functioning outcomes, program satisfaction and changes in the 
patient's environment.

II. Agency Policies, Procedures, and Restrictions on the Routine Use

    A. The Privacy Act permits us to disclose information without an 
individual's consent if the information is to be used for a purpose 
that is compatible with the purpose(s) for which the information was 
collected. Any such disclosure of data is known as a ``routine use.'' 
The Government will only release CBA-PRTF information that can be 
associated with an individual as provided for under ``Section III. 
Proposed Routine Use Disclosures of Data in the System.'' Both 
identifiable and non-identifiable data may be disclosed under a routine 
use. We will only collect the minimum personal data necessary to 
achieve the purpose of CBA-PRTF.
    CMS has the following policies and procedures concerning 
disclosures of information that will be maintained in the system. 
Disclosure of information from the system will be approved only to the 
extent necessary to accomplish the purpose of the disclosure and only 
after CMS:
    1. Determines that the use or disclosure is consistent with the 
reason that the data is being collected; e.g., to collect and maintain 
individually identifiable information on Medicaid recipients, and 
providers of services who voluntarily participate in the national 
evaluation of the CBA-PRTF.
    2. Determines that:
    a. The purpose for which the disclosure is to be made can only be 
accomplished if the record is provided in individually identifiable 
form;
    b. The purpose for which the disclosure is to be made is of 
sufficient importance to warrant the effect and/or risk on the privacy 
of the individual that additional exposure of the record might bring; 
and
    c. There is a strong probability that the proposed use of the data 
would in fact accomplish the stated purpose(s).
    3. Requires the information recipient to:
    a. Establish administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to 
prevent unauthorized use of disclosure of the record;
    b. Remove or destroy, at the earliest time, all patient-
identifiable information; and
    c. Agree to not use or disclose the information for any purpose 
other than the stated purpose under which the information was 
disclosed.
    4. Determines that the data are valid and reliable.

III. Proposed Routine Use Disclosures of Data in the System

    A. The Privacy Act allows us to disclose information without an 
individual's consent if the information is to be used for a purpose 
that is compatible with the purpose(s) for which the information was 
collected. Any such compatible use of data is known as a ``routine 
use.'' The proposed routine uses in this system meet the compatibility 
requirement of the Privacy Act. We are proposing to establish the 
following routine use disclosures of information maintained in the 
system:
    1. To agency contractors, consultants or grantees, who have been 
engaged by the agency to assist in the performance of a service related 
to this collection and who need to have access to the records in order 
to perform the activity.
    We contemplate disclosing information under this routine use only 
in situations in which CMS may enter into a contractual or similar 
agreement with a third party to assist in accomplishing CMS function 
relating to purposes for this system.
    CMS occasionally contracts out certain of its functions when doing 
so would contribute to effective and efficient operations. CMS must be 
able to give a contractor, consultant or grantee whatever information 
is necessary for the contractor or consultant to fulfill its duties. In 
these situations, safeguards are provided in the contract prohibiting 
the contractor, consultant or grantee from using or disclosing the 
information for any purpose other than that described in the contract 
and requires the contractor, consultant or grantee to return or destroy 
all information at the completion of the contract.
    2. To another Federal or state agency to:
    a. Contribute to the accuracy of CMS's proper payment of Medicaid 
benefits;
    b. Enable such agency to administer a Federal health benefits 
program, or, as necessary, to enable such agency to fulfill a 
requirement of a Federal statute or regulation that implements a health 
benefits program funded in whole or in part with Federal funds; and/or
    c. Assist Federal/state Medicaid programs within the state.
    Other Federal or state agencies, in their administration of a 
Federal health program, may require CBA-PRTF information in order to 
support evaluations and monitoring of Medicaid claims information of 
beneficiaries,

[[Page 72735]]

including proper reimbursement for services provided.
    3. To an individual or organization for a research project or in 
support of an evaluation project related to the prevention of disease 
or disability, the restoration or maintenance of health, or payment 
related projects.
    The CBA-PRTF data will provide for research or support of 
evaluation projects and a broader, longitudinal, national perspective 
of the status of Medicaid beneficiaries. CMS anticipates that 
researchers may have legitimate requests to use these data in projects 
that could ultimately improve the care provided to Medicaid 
beneficiaries and the policies that govern their care.
    4. To the Department of Justice (DOJ), court or adjudicatory body 
when:
    a. The agency or any component thereof, or
    b. Any employee of the agency in his or her official capacity, or
    c. Any employee of the agency in his or her individual capacity 
where the DOJ has agreed to represent the employee, or
    d. The United States Government, is a party to litigation or has an 
interest in such litigation, and, by careful review, CMS determines 
that the records are both relevant and necessary to the litigation and 
that the use of such records by the DOJ, court or adjudicatory body is 
compatible with the purpose for which the agency collected the records.
    Whenever CMS is involved in litigation, and occasionally when 
another party is involved in litigation and CMS policies or operations 
could be affected by the outcome of the litigation, CMS would be able 
to disclose information to the DOJ, court or adjudicatory body 
involved.
    5. To a CMS contractor (including, but not necessarily limited to, 
fiscal intermediaries and carriers) that assists in the administration 
of a CMS-administered health benefits program, or to a grantee of a 
CMS-administered grant program, when disclosure is deemed reasonably 
necessary by CMS to prevent, deter, discover, detect, investigate, 
examine, prosecute, sue with respect to, defend against, correct, 
remedy, or otherwise combat fraud, waste, and abuse in such program.
    We contemplate disclosing information under this routine use only 
in situations in which CMS may enter into a contractual, grantee, 
cooperative agreement or consultant relationship with a third party to 
assist in accomplishing CMS functions relating to the purpose of 
combating fraud, waste, and abuse. CMS occasionally contracts out 
certain of its functions or makes grants or cooperative agreements when 
doing so would contribute to effective and efficient operations. CMS 
must be able to give a contractor, grantee, consultant or other legal 
agent whatever information is necessary for the agent to fulfill its 
duties. In these situations, safeguards are provided in the contract 
prohibiting the agent from using or disclosing the information for any 
purpose other than that described in the contract and requiring the 
agent to return or destroy all information.
    6. To another Federal agency or to an instrumentality of any 
governmental jurisdiction within or under the control of the United 
States (including any State or local governmental agency), that 
administers, or that has the authority to investigate potential fraud, 
waste, or abuse in, a health benefits program funded in whole or in 
part by Federal funds, when disclosure is deemed reasonably necessary 
by CMS to prevent, deter, discover, detect, investigate, examine, 
prosecute, sue with respect to, defend against, correct, remedy, or 
otherwise combat fraud, waste, or abuse in such programs.
    Other agencies may require CBA-PRTF information for the purpose of 
combating fraud, waste, and abuse in such Federally-funded programs.

B. Additional Provisions Affecting Routine Use Disclosures

    To the extent this system contains Protected Health Information 
(PHI) as defined by HHS regulation ``Standards for Privacy of 
Individually Identifiable Health Information'' (45 CFR Parts 160 and 
164, Subparts A and E) 65 Fed. Reg. 82462 (12-28-00). Disclosures of 
such PHI that are otherwise authorized by these routine uses may only 
be made if, and as, permitted or required by the ``Standards for 
Privacy of Individually Identifiable Health Information.'' (See 45 CFR 
164.512(a) (1)).
    In addition, our policy will be to prohibit release even of data 
not directly identifiable, except pursuant to one of the routine uses 
or if required by law, if we determine there is a possibility that an 
individual can be identified through implicit deduction based on small 
cell sizes (instances where the patient population is so small that 
individuals could, because of the small size, use this information to 
deduce the identity of the beneficiary).

IV. Safeguards

    CMS has safeguards in place for authorized users and monitors such 
users to ensure against unauthorized use. Personnel having access to 
the system have been trained in the Privacy Act and information 
security requirements. Employees who maintain records in this system 
are instructed not to release data until the intended recipient agrees 
to implement appropriate management, operational and technical 
safeguards sufficient to protect the confidentiality, integrity and 
availability of the information and information systems and to prevent 
unauthorized access.
    This system will conform to all applicable Federal laws and 
regulations and Federal, HHS, and CMS policies and standards as they 
relate to information security and data privacy. These laws and 
regulations may apply but are not limited to: the Privacy Act of 1974; 
the Federal Information Security Management Act of 2002; the Computer 
Fraud and Abuse Act of 1986; the Health Insurance Portability and 
Accountability Act of 1996; the E-Government Act of 2002, the Clinger-
Cohen Act of 1996; the Medicare Modernization Act of 2003, and the 
corresponding implementing regulations. OMB Circular A-130, Management 
of Federal Resources, Appendix III, Security of Federal Automated 
Information Resources also applies. Federal, HHS, and CMS policies and 
standards include but are not limited to: All pertinent National 
Institute of Standards and Technology publications; the HHS Information 
Systems Program Handbook and the CMS Information Security Handbook.

V. Effects of The Proposed System of Records on Individual Rights

    CMS proposes to establish this system in accordance with the 
principles and requirements of the Privacy Act and will collect, use, 
and disseminate information only as prescribed therein. Data in this 
system will be subject to the authorized releases in accordance with 
the routine uses identified in this system of records.
    CMS will take precautionary measures to minimize the risks of 
unauthorized access to the records and the potential harm to individual 
privacy or other personal or property rights of patients whose data are 
maintained in this system. CMS will collect only that information 
necessary to perform the system's functions. In addition, CMS will make 
disclosure from the proposed system only with consent of the subject 
individual, or his/her legal representative, or in accordance with an 
applicable exception provision of the Privacy Act. CMS, therefore, does 
not anticipate an unfavorable effect on individual privacy as a result 
of information relating to individuals.

that is compatible with the purpose(s) for which the information was 
collected. Any such compatible use of data is known as a ``routine 
use.'' The proposed routine uses in this system meet the compatibility 
requirement of the Privacy Act. We are proposing to establish the 
following routine use disclosures of information maintained in the 
system:
    1. To agency contractors, consultants or grantees, who have been 
engaged by the agency to assist in the performance of a service related 
to this collection and who need to have access to the records in order 
to perform the activity.
    2. To another Federal or state agency to:
    a. contribute to the accuracy of CMS's proper payment of Medicaid 
benefits;
    b. enable such agency to administer a Federal health benefits 
program, or, as necessary, to enable such agency to fulfill a 
requirement of a Federal statute or regulation that implements a health 
benefits program funded in whole or in part with Federal funds; and/or
    c. assist Federal/state Medicaid programs within the state.
    3. To an individual or organization for a research project or in 
support of an evaluation project related to the prevention of disease 
or disability, the restoration or maintenance of health, or payment 
related projects.
    4. To the Department of Justice (DOJ), court or adjudicatory body 
when:
    a. the agency or any component thereof, or
    b. any employee of the agency in his or her official capacity, or
    c. any employee of the agency in his or her individual capacity 
where the DOJ has agreed to represent the employee, or
    d. the United States Government, is a party to litigation or has an 
interest in such litigation, and, by careful review, CMS determines 
that the records are both relevant and necessary to the litigation and 
that the use of such records by the DOJ, court or adjudicatory body is 
compatible with the purpose for which the agency collected the records.
    5. To a CMS contractor (including, but not necessarily limited to, 
fiscal intermediaries and carriers) that assists in the administration 
of a CMS-administered health benefits program, or to a grantee of a 
CMS-administered grant program, when disclosure is deemed reasonably 
necessary by CMS to prevent, deter, discover, detect, investigate, 
examine, prosecute, sue with respect to, defend against, correct, 
remedy, or otherwise combat fraud, waste, and abuse in such program.
    6. To another Federal agency or to an instrumentality of any 
governmental jurisdiction within or under the control of the United 
States (including any State or local governmental agency), that 
administers, or that has the authority to investigate potential fraud, 
waste, or abuse in, a health benefits program funded in whole or in 
part by Federal funds, when disclosure is deemed reasonably necessary 
by CMS to prevent, deter, discover, detect, investigate, examine, 
prosecute, sue with respect to, defend against, correct, remedy, or 
otherwise combat fraud, waste, or abuse in such programs.
    B. Additional Provisions Affecting Routine Use Disclosures. To the 
extent this system contains Protected Health Information (PHI) as 
defined by HHS regulation ``Standards for Privacy of Individually 
Identifiable Health Information'' (45 CFR Parts 160 and 164, Subparts A 
and E) 65 Fed. Reg. 82462 (12-28-00). Disclosures of such PHI that are 
otherwise authorized by these routine uses may only be made if, and as, 
permitted or required by the ``Standards for Privacy of Individually 
Identifiable Health Information.'' (See 45 CFR 164.512(a)(1)).
    In addition, our policy will be to prohibit release even of data 
not directly identifiable, except pursuant to one of the routine uses 
or if required by law, if we determine there is a possibility that an 
individual can be identified through implicit deduction based on small 
cell sizes (instances where the patient population is so small that 
individuals could, because of the small size, use this information to
