and (CMS–378) Ambulatory Surgical
Center (ASC) Survey Report Form; Use:
CMS–370 has not been revised and will
continue to be used to establish
eligibility for payment under Title XVIII
of the Social Security Act (the ‘‘Act’’). As
revised, CMS–377 will be used to
collect facility-specific characteristics
that facilitate CMS’ oversight of ASCs.
The data also enables CMS to respond
to inquiries from the Congress, GAO,
and the OIG concerning the
characteristics of Medicare-participating
ASCs. The data base that supports
survey and certification activities will
be revised to reflect changes in the data
fields on this revised form, such as the
data on the types of surgical procedures
performed in the ASC. CMS–378 will be
discontinued since it duplicates
information collected by other means;
Form Numbers: CMS–370, –377 and
–378 (OCN: 0938–0266); Frequency:
Occasionally; Affected Public: Private
Sector: Business or other for-profit and

information is used in conjunction with
42 CFR 485.701 through 485.729
governing the operation of providers of
outpatient physical therapy and speechlanguage pathology services. The
provider uses the form to report to the
State survey agency extension locations
that it has added since the date of last
report. The form is used by the State
survey agencies and by the CMS
regional offices to identify and monitor
extension locations to ensure their
compliance with the Federal
requirements for the providers of
outpatient physical therapy and speechlanguage pathology services; Form
Number: CMS–381 (OMB #: 0938–
0273); Frequency: Annually; Affected

Section 303(d) of the Medicare
Prescription Drug, Improvement, and
Modernization Act of 2003 (MMA)
provides an alternative payment
methodology for Part B covered drugs
that are not paid on a cost or
prospective payment basis. In
particular, Section 303(d) of the MMA
amends Title XVIII of the Social
Security Act by adding a new section
1847B, which establishes a competitive
acquisition program for the acquisition
of and payment for Part B covered drugs
and biologicals furnished on or after
January 1, 2006. Since its inception,
additional legislation has augmented the
CAP. Section 108 of the Medicare
Improvements and Extension Act under
Division B, Title I of the Tax Relief
Health Care Act of 2006 (MIEA–TRHCA)
amended Section 1847b(a)(3) of the
Social Security Act and requires that
CAP implement a post payment review
process. This procedure is done to
assure that payment is made for a drug
or biological under this section only if
the drug or biological has been
administered to a beneficiary. Form

affect people with ASD to key
stakeholder audiences. The format of
the report will include data tables from
various State programs and narrative
about the data being presented based on
the interviews with State agency staff.
We propose interviewing multiple staff
in each State because several State
agencies have an impact on services and
supports for people with ASD; Form
