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), 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 function;
(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: Extension of a currently
approved collection; Title of
Information Collection: Consumer
Assistance Program Grants; Use: Section
1002 of the Affordable Care Act
provides for the establishment of
consumer assistance (or ombudsman)
programs, starting in FY 2010. Federal
grants will support these programs. For
FY 2010, $30 million is appropriated.
These programs will assist consumers
with filing complaints and appeals,
assist consumers with enrollment into
health coverage, collect data on
consumer inquiries and complaints to
identify problems in the marketplace,
educate consumers on their rights and
responsibilities, and starting in 2014,
resolve problems with premium credits
for Exchange coverage. Importantly,
these programs must provide detailed
reporting on the types of problems and
questions consumers may experience
with health coverage, and how these are
resolved. In order to strengthen
oversight, the law requires programs to
report data to the Secretary of the
Department of Health and Human
Services (HHS) ‘‘As a condition of
receiving a grant under subsection (a),
an office of health insurance consumer
assistance or ombudsman program shall
be required to collect and report data to
the Secretary on the types of problems
and inquiries encountered by
consumers’’ (Sec. 2793 (d)). Form
Number: CMS–10333 (OMB–0938–
1097); Frequency: Quarterly; Affected

Tribal Governments; Number of

Respondents: 40; Number of Responses:
200; Total Annual Hours: 4,800. (For
policy questions regarding this
collection, contact Eliza Bangit at (301)
492–4219. For all other issues call (410)
786–1326.)
2. Type of Information Collection
Request: New Collection; Title of
Information Collection: Health
Insurance Assistance Database; Use: In
October 2010, the Office of Consumer
Support began to take and respond to
direct consumer inquiries related to the
Affordable Care Act. As of February
15th 2011, CCIIO has received 906
consumer inquiries. Consumer inquiries
continue to come in to CCIIO at a rate
of 30 to 35 inquiries per week. Starting
in January 2011, the HHS Hotline will
begin to refer ACA calls to CCIIO. To
date, the HHS Hotline receives, on
average, 400 calls per month pertaining
to ACA.
Accordingly, a system to collect, track
and store consumer information is
urgently needed in order to accomplish
successful case management to ensure
that the information, coverage, and
health care needs of consumers are
addressed fairly and in a timely fashion.
Further, the Team will provide detailed
reports on these consumer inquiries
with a focus on Affordable Care Act and
PHS Act compliance issues. These
reports will assist the Office of
Oversight in identifying areas where
compliance concerns may arise. Reports
will be stripped of any information in
identifiable form (IIF) and personal
health information when written and
prepared. Authority for maintenance,
collection and disclosures of this
information is given under sections
2719, 2723, and 2761 of the Public
Health Service Act (PHS Act) and
section 1321(c) of the Affordable Care
Act.
Analysis of this data reporting will
help identity patterns of practice in the
insurance marketplaces and uncover
suspected patterns of noncompliance.
HHS may share program data reports
with the Departments of Labor and
Treasury, and State regulators. Program
data also can offer CCIIO one indication
of the effectiveness of State
enforcement, affording opportunities to
provide technical assistance and
support to State insurance regulators
and, in extreme cases, inform the need
to trigger Federal enforcement. Form
